8.1 Inspection
8.1.1Pressure reducing valve
CAUTION!
Interval: once a year
1.
Close shut-off valve on outlet

Check outlet pressure using a pressure meter when
there is zero through-flow
•
If the pressure is increasing slowly, the valve may
be dirty or defective. In this instance, carry out
servicing and cleaning
3.
Slowly open shut-off valve on outlet
8.2 Maintenance
