The wafer check valves are dimensioned in metric sizes DN32-125 for nominal pressure 10 bar and in metric sizes DN150-300 for nominal pressure 6 bar. 6.5 Pressure Regulating Valves All pressure regulating valves as supplied by GF Piping Systems shall have the following characteristics: Pressure ranges for all pressure regulating valves are the following: • DN10–50 from 0 up to max. 10 bar • DN65–80 from 0 up to max. 6 bar • DN100 from 0 up to max. 4 bar 6.5.1 Pressure Reducing Valves As supplied by GF Piping Systems reduces the pressure within the system to a pre- set value. By using the differential pressure, the pressure reducing valve adjusts itself to the set working pressure. The outlet pressure (working pressure) is not directly related to the inlet pressure. If the outlet pressure increases above the set value, the diaphragm is lifted against the spring force. If the outlet pressure falls below the set value, the diaphragm is pressed down by the spring force. The pressure reducing valve begins to close/open until a state of equilibrium is re-established; in other words, the outlet pressure remains constant irrespective of an increasing or decreasing inlet pressure.

GF Piping Systems 6.6 Direct-acting Solenoid Valves Direct-acting solenoid valves as supplied by GF Piping Systems serve to regulate and control fluids, if no compressed air is available or not wanted. They are used for diverse functions, e.g. opening, shutting, dosing, distribute and mixing. The medium flow is switched directly by the armature moved by the magnetic force. • Safety position shall be available Following type and sizes are available: • Type 157, sizes DN4-8 • Type 160/161, sizes DN10-20 • Type 166, sizes DN3-5 6.7 Servo-assisted Solenoid Valves Servo-assisted solenoid valves as supplied by GF Piping Systems serve to regulate and control fluids, if no compressed air is available or unwanted. They are used for miscellaneous functions, e.g. opening, shutting, dosing, distributing and mixing. Opening large orifices using the direct-acting method would require enormous and expensive coils. Servo assisted valves use the power of the fluid to open the flow channel by controlling a small pilot channel to alter the forces on a larger main seal. ∆p (pressure) 0.5 bar is mandatory with servo-assisted valves. • Type, 165, sizes DN10-50 6.8 Ventilating- and Bleed Valves All SYGEF Standard (PVDF) ventilating- and bleed valves shall be GF type 591. Dimensions DN10-100 are with pressure rating PN16. They shall be equipped with a PVDF floater. 6.9 Ventilating Valves All SYGEF Standard (PVDF) ventilating valves shall be GF type 595. Dimensions DN10-100 are with pressure rating PN16. They shall be equipped with plastic coated stainless steel spring with minimal opening pressure (10-80 mbar). Optionally Nimonic / Nimonic-ECTFE can be used. Systemspecification SYGEF Standard (PVDF) Seite 17/ 28 Schaffhausen, Juli 2018

GF Piping Systems 7. Welding and assembly All butt fusion fittings and valves shall also be manufactured with laying lengths designed for use with fusion machines IR-63 Plus, IR-110 Plus, IR-225 Plus and IR- 315 Plus from GF Piping Systems, providing welds with increased mechanical and chemical stability than conventional welding methods (socket- and butt fusion). The IR Plus fusion machines use non-contact radiant heating. The cooling time for is calculated on the basis of ambient temperature and the bead surface temperature for uniform reproducible weld beads for easy weld bead inspection. To increase the cooling capacity, an additional cooling fan is included in the IR-225 Plus and IR-315 Plus. Only authorised welders by GF Piping Systems are allowed to perform fusion on the IR Plus machines. As an alternative to IR fusion, conventional butt fusion according to DVS 2207-15 may be used, preferably with automated CNC controllers and weld recorders. Special care needs to be taken to prevent the pipe ends from sticking to the heater plate. Socket fittings require the use of Socket Fusion welding tools according to DVS 2007-15, with heating bushes System B. The BCF fusion technology joins SYGEF Standard (PVDF) piping components of dimensions d20-110 without any irregularities, beads or crevices. The extremely compact fusion machine, which is also ideal for on-site fusion, is very reliable, easy to handle and creates reproducible and very strong fusion welds. Only authorized welders by GF Piping Systems are allowed to perform fusion on the BCF Plus machines manufactured by GF Piping Systems. The welding and the installation should be in accordance with GF Piping Systems Guide to the Installation and Use of Plastic Pipeline.

GF Piping Systems 8.1.2 Flow sensors 8.1.2.1 Paddlewheel sensors 515 and 525 sensors: All sensors of this family are “sinusoidal” sensors. This sensor from GF Piping Systems SIGNET requires no external power source to produce a signal. Internal to the body of the sensor is a wire coil which when excited by the rotor assembly produces a small sinusoidal signal. The rotor assembly consists of four paddles; inserted into each of the paddles of the rotor are magnets. As liquid flows past the rotor assembly it rotates each of the four paddles produces a sine wave signal as it passes the centre of the body (two paddles of the rotor produces a full AC sine wave). The sensors as manufactured by GF Piping Systems SIGNET produce a signal output which is proportional to the flow rate. A K-factor (number of pulses generated by the sensor per 1 liter or 1 gallon of fluid the sensor) is used to define the size of the pipe that the sensor is inserted into. 3-2536 and 3-2537 sensors: All sensors of this family of sensors are “Hall Effect” sensors. Internal to the GF Piping Systems SIGNET sensors body is an open collector relay. The sensor is supplied with a voltage from the 3-8550 transmitters or an external power supply ranging from 5 to 24 volts. This voltage is switched through the open collector relay as the paddlewheel (rotor) of the sensor rotates. The sensor’s rotor assembly has four paddles. Inserted in two of the paddles is a magnet. As the paddles pass the centre of the sensors body, the magnetic field switches the open collector relay on and off which generates a square wave pulse as manufactured by GF Piping Systems SIGNET. Two pulses indicates a complete rotation (on/off cycle) of the open collector relay. The pulse output is directly proportional to the fluid velocity. A K-factor (number of pulses generated by the sensor per 1 liter or 1 gallon of fluid passing the sensor) is used to define the size of the pipe that the sensor is inserted into. 8.1.2.2 Rotameters As supplied by GF Piping Systems are radially installed dismountable meters for flow rate measuring in industrial piping applications. If needed, minimum or maximum flow can also be monitored via limit switches. Also, analogue flow measurement with a 4…20mA Signal is possible.
