6. valve is not operated for a long period the actuating moment may have to be increased To remedy this we recommend regular functional checks If the surface is damaged through impact or friction this can cause corrosion and can therefore lead to a reduction in the service life 7 Storage and transport Ball valves should be stored in a dry place protected from contamination When loading and unloading as well as during transport of the valves care should be taken that the ball valves are not thrown or knocked in order to avoid damage Covers which may have fallen off should be cleaned and replaced The ball valves have been protected against corrosion before leaving the works The ball valves must be stored in the opened position The plastic caps should not be removed The ball valves should be protected against environmental influences such as moisture wetness rain dust dirt Sand mud salty air or drizzle and salt water During storage temperatures should not drop below or exceed the values 20 C to 50 C Rapid changes in temperature should be avoided as far as possible development of condensation water Lubrication is recommended following long storage caution not with the oxygen model The ball valves should Subsequently be opened and closed at least twice For valves with single acting actuators e g pneumatic actuators with spring closed or similar system in which the closed position is required as final position
