MAINTENANCE:
Protectoseal recommends that our products be inspected and
maintained according to the normal maintenance schedule of
the facility. At a minimum, maintenance should be conducted
annually. More frequent maintenance may be required, and
should be scheduled, for unusual service conditions.
CAUTION: When maintaining any Pr tect seal
device, the legal, c rp rate and advis ry safety
regulati ns and pr cedures appr priate f r the
specific installati n site must be fully underst d
and f ll wed.
CAUTION: Tank vap r space pressure r vacuum
sh uld be relieved bef re any maintenance
perati ns are undertaken.
MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE:
1. Loosen wing nuts and remove weatherhood.
2. Remove any loose dirt or foreign material from the hous-
ing interior and exterior. Check inside the stem guide hole
of the cover and remove any dirt or accumulation of for-
eign material.
3. ithdraw the pressure pallet assembly and any weights.
Set aside for inspection. Note: Identify any weights on
the pressure pallet assembly for later reinstallation.
4. Inspect the screen that protects the pressure port. Clean
or replace as necessary.
5. Inspect and clean the machined seating surface in the
vent with a suitable cleaning fluid. Seat should be free of
nicks, mars or accumulation of foreign material.
CAUTION: D n t use a file r ther sharp t l
t clean the seating surface.
6. Inspect the pallet assembly. If pallet is deteriorated or
bent, it must be replaced. Inspect the diaphragm material
in the pallet assembly. The diaphragm must be clean, flat
and smooth. If the diaphragm material is deteriorated, it
must be replaced. Make sure that all nuts and screws on
the pallet assembly are tightened securely.
7. Reinstall the pressure pallet assembly. Setting weights (if
provided) should be installed by engaging the hole in the
weight on the pallet assembly stem. Make sure that
weights are properly installed as marked to provide spec-
ified set points. Heavy weights may be provided with
tapped holes to temporarily attach lifting hardware to fa-
cilitate installation. Any such threaded fasteners used
during installation must be removed from the weights.
Foreign objects will limit the lift capability of the pallet as-
sembly and will reduce rated flow capacity of the vent.
8. Replace the weatherhood. NOTE: Make sure that the
pressure pallet assembly stem positively engage the hole
in the stem guide in the weatherhood and in the weather-
hood. It may be useful to verify engagement of the pres-
sure stem into the weatherhood stem guide by
unthreading the guide and then reinstalling it with the
stem centered in the hole. The pallet assembly must be
free to move upwards, with the pallet stem traveling into
the stem guide.
9. Secure weatherhood with wing nuts.
