General
The intent of these instructions is to acquaint the user with the maintenance of this
product. Please read these instructions carefully.

Storage and Handling


Pressure relief valve performance may be adversely affected if the valve is stored for an
extended period without proper protection. Rough handling and dirt may damage,
deform, or cause misalignment of valve parts and may alter the pressure setting and
adversely affect valve performance and seat tightness. It is recommended that the valve
be stored in the original shipping container in a warehouse or as a minimum on a dry
surface with a protective covering until installation. Inlet and outlet protectors should
remain in place until the valve is ready to be installed in the system.
