For Integral Relief Valve with Manual Lift - see Figure 11.
• To operate the manual lift, turn the hand wheel (111)

clockwise, which will lift the valve head (102/128). To

resume normal operation turn the hand wheel (111)

counter-clockwise.

For Integral Relief Valve with airlift - see Figure 13.
• To actuate the air lift connect an air supply not exceeding 7

Bar for SLA -E and 10 Bar for SLF to the cylinder (123) which

will lift the valve head (112). To resume normal relief valve

operation, exhaust the Cylinder (123).

See Figure 14.

• Connect an air supply, via a regulating valve to the relief

valve connection A in the cylinder (114). Do not turn on the

air supply.

• Start the pump, refer to section 3.5.
• Using the regulating valve gradually increase the air pressure

until required pressure relief setting is reached. The air

pressure must not exceed 7 Bar SLA - E and 10 Bar SLF.

• The relief valve is now set.

• slf Only - If the valve assembly is

disassembled, e.g. for maintenance or

repair, it is necessary to apply a thread

locking compound (loctite 270 or similar)

to the piston retaining screw (120).

NOTE: Care should be taken not to exceed the lower of

either the pumps maximum pressure rating or the system

design pressure.
• To use the air lift system the regulated air supply must be

routed through a change over valve in order to transfer

air from the relief valve load air chamber, connection A,

to the lift air chamber, connection B while depressurizing

the load chamber and vice versa. The change over valve

will actuate the air lift which will lift when the air supply is

diverted to connection B, and will close, restoring normal

relief valve operation, when the air supply is diverted back

to connection A.
