1. General All persons involved with the assembly, operation and / or maintenance of gas pressure regulators must read and understand all of the following documents: – Technical product information (brochure RMG 324.00) – this RMG document contains the technical data and dimensions of the equipment and a description of its design and mode of operation. – General operating manual for gas pressure regulators and safety devices – this RMG document contains information on assembly and operation as well as general information on troubleshooting. – Operating and maintenance instructions / spare parts (brochure RMG 324.20) – this RMG document contains more detailed information on assembly and operation of the gas pressure regulator. There are national laws and regulations for all sorts of jobs on gas equipment, from planning to maintenance. Be sure to comply. (In Germany, for instance, DVGW work sheets G 600, G 459/II, G 491 and G 495.) Inspection and maintenance intervals depend mostly on operating conditions and the nature and properties of the gas. There are no general rules or recommendations for intervals. For Germany, we recommend to consider maintenance intervals as stated in DVGW work sheet G 495 in a first instance. However, in the mid-term, intervals must be adapted to the requirements of each specific equipment. During maintenance, components must be cleaned and then checked thoroughly. This is necessary even if there have not been any unusual observations during operation and / or functional testing. Checks must focus, in particular, on diaphragms and seals and all movable parts and their respective bearings. Any and all defective parts must be replaced with new ones. The same applies to O rings removed during disassembly. Do not use any spare / wear parts and / or oils & lubricants not specifically recommended in the RMG operating and maintenance instructions for spare parts. In the event spare / wear parts and / or oils & lubricants other than those specifically recommended are used, RMG shall not be held liable for any defects and / or consecutive damages attributable to such use of illegal parts, lubricants, oils etc. Item numbers mentioned in the specific operating and maintenance instructions correspond with the numbers in the spare parts lists and drawings. Some parts in the lists and drawings are marked with a letter “W”. We recommend to always have a reserve of those parts in stock for maintenance purposes. Those spare parts are put together in another separate list at the end of the spare parts list.

1.1 Safety information In this manual, safety information is highlighted by means of the following signal words and eye catchers.

Specific maintenance instructions

! Danger 2.1

Do not carry out maintenance unless the system is safely depressurised!

Valve rod (78) To prevent diaphragm (58) from twisting when loosening and/or tightening hex nuts (54, 65), be sure to secure valve rod (78) accordingly using an AF 7 wrench.

2.2

Valve discs (66, 77) Valve disc (77), sealing washer (81) and hex nut (65) must be mounted without lubrication. Hex nut (65) must be secured with low-strength thread locker. With valve disc (77) closed, valve disc (66) must be adjusted by turning hex nut (80) in such a way that both valve discs (66, 77) sit equally well in the valve seats. Lock hex nut (80) with hex nut (79).

2.3

Diaphragm (58) With valve discs (66, 67) closed, align plate-shaped diaphragm (58) as shown in the detailed view. With valve discs (66, 67) open, mount plate-shaped diaphragm (58) between diaphragm housing pot (74) and diaphragm housing cover (53). Diaphragm housing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; pot (74)

Speciﬁc operating instructions Fitting position

Note 3.2

3.3

RMG 324 is a zero-pressure gas regulator. Be sure to fit this equipment in a horizontal position with the spring dome down. See sectional drawings 4.1.1 and 4.2.1.

Vent line connection

! Caution

Never plug up the vent line connection.

! Danger

Be sure to connect a vent line here (thread G 3/8), whenever there is a danger that failure of the regulator (e.g. measuring diaphragm is damaged) releases gas to the environment.

Dirt traps (gas ﬁlters) The user must equip the system with devices that protect the gas pressure regulator against contamination.

3.4

Setting the setpoint To adjust the setpoint: turn the setpoint adjuster (67) clockwise (AF 13) to increase the setpoint. Turn in ccw to decrease the setpoint.

3.5

Switching from internal to external measuring impulse connection (retroﬁt) The RMG 324 is delivered with an internal measuring impulse connection by default. It is possible to retrofit for an external connection if necessary for technical reasons. You will need RMG retrofit kit 12133693 (4.1.2).

How to retrofit – proceed as follows:

3.6

–

Unscrew the plug (12)

–

Visually check the stepped bore: Any dirt? Obstructions? Remove and clean as required.

–

Screw down the threaded pin (13) – all the way to the stop

–

Install the screwed connection parts (14, 15, 16). Make sure the elastomer seal is not damaged.

–

Installation of the pipes of the measuring line (external Ø =12 mm). Install the measuring line as described in RMG's general operating manual for gas pressure regulators and safety devices.

Switching from external to internal measuring impulse connection (retroﬁt) Proceed as described for internal to external retrofit but in reverse order (see 3.5). Make sure all retrofit parts are in good condition. Replace with better ones, if and where necessary. If your RMG 324 gas pressure regulator is delivered with an external measuring impulse connection, you will need a plug (12) for retrofit (RMG part no. 100851).
