3.8 Legal regulations and standards:
An overview of possible valve modifications is described in the ordering key.
Coil control voltage and coil power connector
The coil type can be changed by the customer if he observes the safety principles during replacement and adapts the electrical parameters of the
source and the type of connector plug to the new type of coil.
The seal material cannot be changed by the user, as part of the seal is located between the valve body and the control system, respectively the
sensor body. The user must not disassemble the valve.
Other parameters, such as the type of slide, can only be selected when ordering, as they cannot be changed without disassembling the valve.
If the slider position sensor setting, indicated in red, is unintentionally lost, have the sensor readjusted by the manufacturer.
NOTICE:
Valve repairs and sensor adjustments may only be performed by the manufacturer. If the valve is disassembled by the user, the manufacturer disclaims
liability for its correct operation and sensor adjustment.
