ately or professionally repaired, in order to ensure continued safe operation. Repairs to
pressure build-up regulators must be performed only by Goetze KG Armaturen or by
authorised specialist workshops, using only genuine spare parts. Makeshift repairs of any

Hazard warning: Leaking operating medium can lead to burns, poisoning and irri-
tations; take appropriate measures to prevent any hazards. Be aware that residue
may run off! Suitable and sufficient personal protective equipment must be worn!
Only qualified persons may remove the pressure build-up regulator from the pipe. For this
purpose, the system or system part and the pipe system with the pressure build-up
regulator must be depressurised. The operating medium and the fitting must be at ambi-
ent temperature. Only remove the pressure build-up regulator from the pipe system

Possible cause
•
Contamination or damage
of the sealing surfaces
• Screw fitting/union units
loosened
• Filter screens conta-
minated
• Bellow defective or blocked
by ice formation
• Pressure build-up evapora-
tor frozen
• Working pressure setting
changed
• Valve plug of the pressure
build-up regulator blocked
by frozen medium
• Media consumption stop-
ped (e.g. shutdown)
• Safety function activated
after refuelling
Solution
Check the sealing surfaces; if neces-
sary, replace the pressure build-up
regulator
Observe the tightening torques in
section 5
Clean or replace the filter screens
Install replacement valve or isolate
and thaw blocked pressure build-up
regulator
Replace bellow
Reduce the consumption quantity un-
til the evaporator is mostly defrosted
Adjust working pressure according
to section 7
Install replacement valve or isolate
and thaw blocked pressure build-up
regulator
Ensure basic inspection is performed
Isolate the pressure build-up regulator
by closing shut-off valves upstream
and downstream of the regulator;
reduce tank pressure by tapping
or draining. After reaching the set
working pressure, open shut-off
valves again
