INTRODUCTION
Scope of the Manual
This manual provides installation, startup, maintenance,
troubleshooting, and spare parts for the switch for ow
partition system V/31-2-AP-E Series.
Product Description
In monitor-regulator systems the pneumatic switch
Type V/31-2-AP-E is installed on the motorization pressure
circuit, in order to obtain the capacity ow partition between
the pressure reducing lines.
If the device vents gas or a leak develops
in the system, service to the unit may be
required. Failure to correct trouble could
result in a hazardous condition.
Call a gas service person to service the
unit. Only a qualied person must install or
service the device.
This product has been designed to be used with fuel gases of
1st and 2nd family according to EN 437, and with other non
aggressive and non fuel gases. For any other gases, other
than natural gas, please contact your local Sales Ofce.
For special applications Types V/31-2 -AP-EF, V/31-2-AP-EM
and V/31-2-AP-EMF versions are available on request
(see Table 1).

INSTALLATION
WARNING
!
Personal injury or equipment damage, due
to bursting of pressure-containing parts
may result if this device is overpressured or
is installed where service conditions could

bar
bar
bar
exceed the limits given in the Characteristics
section and on the appropriate nameplate or
where conditions exceed any rating of the
adjacent piping or piping connections.
To avoid such injury or damage, provide
pressure-relieving or pressure-limiting
devices to prevent service conditions from
exceeding those limits.
Also, be sure the installation is in
compliance with all applicable codes
and regulations.
Additionally, physical damage to the
device can cause personal injury and
property damage due to bursting of
pressure-containing parts.

STARTUP
CAUTION
Be sure to slowly introduce pressure into the
system to prevent downstream overpressure
due to potential rapid pressure increase.
Pressure gauges should always be used to
monitor downstream pressure
during Startup.
See the setup and pilot adjustment instructions applying to
the equipment where the switch for ow partition system
is tted.
SEP STATEMENT
Emerson declares this product conforms to Pressure
Equipment Directive PED 2014/68/UE Article 4 section 3 and
was designed and manufactured in accordance with sound
engineering practice SEP.
Per Article 4 section 3, this “SEP” product must not bear the
CE marking.
General Maintenance
CAUTION
Always remove spring (key 24) tension
before performing maintenance on this unit.
a. Disconnect all ttings, remove valve from the line, loosen
nut (key 19) and unscrew completely adjusting screw
(key 18) to remove spring tension.
b. Unscrew cap (key 20), remove spring holder (key 23) and
spring (key 24). Replace O-ring (keys 21 and 22).
c. Unscrew screws (key 4) and remove the lower cover
(key 2). Replace O-ring (keys 13 and 8).
d. Hold stem (key 9) using a wrench and unscrew nuts
(key 16).
e. Disassemble parts and replace diaphragm (key 12), pad
(key 7) and lip seals (key 10).
f. Unscrew seat (key 5) and replace O-ring (key 6).
Reassembly
Reassemble all parts by following in reverse order the assembly
as described above (see General Maintenance section).
FIELD INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
The pneumatic switch parts are subject to normal wear and
must be inspected periodically and replaced if necessary.
The frequency of inspection/checks and replacement
depends upon the severity of service conditions and
according to applicable National or Industry codes,
standards and regulations/recommendations.
In accordance with applicable National or Industry codes,
standards and regulations/recommendations, all hazards
covered by specic tests after nal assembling before applying
the CE marking, shall be covered also after every subsequent
reassembly at installation site, in order to ensure that the
equipment will be functional throughout its intended life.
Before proceeding with any maintenance work, shutoff the
gas upstream and downstream from the regulator, also
ensure that there is no gas pressure inside the body by
loosening the upstream and downstream connections.
Upon completion, check for leaks using an appropriate leak
detection solution.
Replacing Seal Pad
As parts are assembled, make sure they move freely
causing no friction.
Make sure to:
a. O-rings and diaphragms should be lubricated by applying a
thin layer of grease Molykote 55 M or equivalent.
Pay attention not to damage them during reassembly.
All other pilot parts don’t require lubrication.
b. The cover clamping screws (key 4) should be tightened
evenly to ensure proper tightness.
c. Previously disassembled ttings must be connected. Check
for leaks by using suds.
SPARE PARTS
Spare parts storage shall be done by proper procedures
according to national standard/rules to avoid over aging of
rubber parts or any damage to critical part.
a. Disconnect all ttings, remove valve from the line and
unscrew (key 4) in the lower part of the valve.
Remove the lower cover (key 2) and replace pad (key 7).
