Amico Medical Gas Check Valve with Extensions - Manual (Page 2)

Maintenance
1. If a problem should arise, do not disassemble the valve while the line is under pressure.
2. Repair kits are available, should the check valve need replacing.
Operation
1. No manual operation is required, of the check valve, once it is in the pipe line.
NOTE: Not recommended for use with reciprocating pumps and similar applications which
may induce repetitious vibrations. Low flow rates, which do not fully open the valve, may
result in undesirable noise and premature valve failure. Upstream flow disturbances, which
create turbulence, may also result in rapid wear. Therefore it is recommended that a minimum
of 10 diameters of straight pipe be provided between the check valve and any upstream flow
disturbances such as pumps, control valves, elbows, etc.
Caution
It is the installers and/or system designers responsibility to ensure that these valves
are installed in accordance with applicable and current NFPA/CSA Standards.
