1.3 About this translated version
This instruction for use contains important information about the choice
of product or system, assembly and commissioning as well as intended
use and, if required, maintenance measures. The information about the
products, their properties and application technology are based on the
current standards in Europe (e. g. EN) and/or in Germany
(e. g. DIN/DVGW).
Some passages in the text may refer to technical codes in Europe/
Germany. These should serve as recommendations in the absence of
corresponding national regulations. The pertinent national laws, standards, regulations and guidelines, as well as other technical guidelines,
have priority over German/European guidelines in this manual: The
information is not binding for other countries and territories and should,
as mentioned, be considered as support.

Information for use
2.4.1 Corrosion
Depending on the area of use, corrosion protection measures may have
to be taken into account.
One differentiates between external pipelines (underground and overground external pipelines), as well as internal pipelines.
For corrosion protection, comply with the applicable directives, see
Ä Chapter 2.1 „Standards and regulations“ on page 6
.
Overground pipes and fittings in rooms do not normally require external
corrosion protection.
There are exceptions in the following cases:
n There is external contact with materials containing chloride.
n Stainless steel pipes must not come into contact with building mate-
rials or mortar containing chloride.
n There is contact with aggressive building materials such as materials
containing nitrite or ammonium.
n in aggressive surroundings

NOTICE!
Use active and possibly passive protection measures to
protect a gas installation from tampering by unauthorised
persons.
Generally use active protective measures.
Choose passive protective measures matching the installa-
tion, and use them.
The use of active and passive protection measures is speci-
fied in the applicable regulations, see
Ä Chapter 2.1
„Standards and regulations“ on page 6
.
3.2 Assembly
3.2.1 Leakage test
The installer must perform a leakage test before commissioning.

Observe the applicable regulations, see
Ä Chapter 2.1 „Standards and
regulations“ on page 6
.
Checking system components
Mounting conditions

Document the result.
3.3 Maintenance
Gas installations must be given a visual inspection, e. g. by the owner,
once a year.
Serviceability and leak tightness must be checked every twelve years by
