NEOTECHA SAPRO® - TANK VALVE TYPE ST FOR ASEPTIC SAMPLING WITH BOTTLES
InstallatIon, operatIon and MaIntenance InstructIon
Before installation these instructions must be fully read and understood
1.4 Illegal technical changes
It is illegal to do mechanical changes of the design
of the Sapro tank valve, or to use parts of other
manufacturers for repairs, otherwise Neotecha
can not guarantee for the safety of the valve.
1.5 Warning of misuse
The Sapro tank valve with all connection pipes
and actuators can never be used to climb up or to
stand on it.
1.6 Danger sources
Chemical external
The sleeve on the actuator should not be cleaned
with solvents, Use alcohol or a mild detergent.
Mechanically
Valves for aseptic sampling of liquid mediums
stored in tanks.
Please read this installation, operation and
maintenance instruction carefully before you
handle the tank valve!
1 SAFETY
Enough space is needed to handle the tank valve,
to prevent of squeezing the hands while operating
the valve
Electrically
To prevent static charges, the entire tank valve is
made of conductive metal.
Please read these instructions carefully.
1.1 General danger potential
• Not paying attention to this instruction
• Incautious use or misuse
• Unqualified personnel or staff
1.2 Use as directed
The Sapro tank valve is used for aseptic
sampling from tanks into bottles.
The pressure range is between no pressure
(about 0,1 bar) and 10 bar maximum.
All material in contact with the product is
stainless steel 1.4435 (316L).
The soft seals are FPM (FKM).
1.3 Restricted use
The valve can be used only with products when the
materials used (1.4435 and FPM) are compatible.
Thermically
With a sample medium temperature range
between -10°C to 160°C, the surface of the tank
valve may assume the same temperature.
It is therefore necessary to wear gloves to avoid
injuries when operating the valve.
Dynamically
The valve is equipped with a “dead man” handle
(spring return). The handle will spring back
by itself when let go. This can cause injuries
to theoperators hand. Therefore do not let
thehandle go when enough sample is taken.
1.7 Requests for the operators
To ensure proper and consistent sample taking
the operator is to be trained as per users
