2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
The sampling valve TSVN/TSVU is intended for taking samples of liquids and
viscous media.
Hint!
The manufacturer will not accept any liability for damage resulting
from any use of the valve which is not in accordance with the
designated use of the valve. The risk is borne solely by the operating
company.
2.1.1 Requirements for operation
The prerequisite for reliable and safe operation of the component is proper
transportation and storage as well as professional installation and assembly.
Operating the unit within the limits of its designated use also involves adhering to
the operating, inspection and maintenance instructions.
2.1.2 Pressure equipment directive
The component is a piece of pressure equipment (without safety function) in the
sense of the pressure equipment directive 2014/68/EU. Classified according to
Annex II in category 1.
According to the scope of directive 2014/34/EC, article 1, paragraph 2, f, the
exception of the directive applies, due to conformity with the machine directive
2006/42/EU.
The nominal diameters smaller than DN 25 are subject to article 4, paragraph 3
of the Pressure Equipment Directive which specifies sound engineering practice.
Nominal diameters ≥ IPS 4“; DN 125 valid for the fluid group II.
In the event of any deviations, GEA Tuchenhagen GmbH will supply a specific
Declaration of Conformity.
2.2 Operator’s Duty of Care

2.3 Subsequent changes
You should never make any technical modifications to the valve. Otherwise you
will have to undergo a new conformity process in accordance with the EC
Machinery Directive on your own.
In general, only original spare parts supplied by GEA Aseptomag AG should be
fitted. This ensures the reliable and economical operation of the valve.
2.4 General safety instructions and dangers

•the valve is not used in accordance with its intended use,
•the valve is not used correctly,
•the valve is operated under impermissible operating conditions.
2.4.1 Principles for safe operation
Dangerous situations during operation can be avoided by safety-conscious and
proactive behaviour of the staff.
To ensure safe operation of the valve the following principles apply:
•The Operating Instructions must be kept ready to hand at the valve's place of
