before opening any viking pump liquid

chamber (pumping chamber, reservoir,

relief valve adjusting cap fitting, etc.)

be sure:
1. That any pressure in the chamber has

been completely vented through the

suction or discharge lines or other

appropriate openings or connections.

2. That the driving means (motor, turbine,

engine, etc.) has been “locked out” or

made non-operational so that it cannot

be started while work is being done on

pump.

3. That you know what liquid the pump

has been handling and the precautions

necessary to safely handle the liquid.

Obtain a material safety data sheet

(MSDS) for the liquid to be sure these

precautions are understood.

If a new spring is installed or if the pressure setting of the

pressure relief valve is changed from what the factory has

set, the following instructions must be carefully followed.
1. Carefully remove the valve cap that covers the adjusting

screw.

Note this cap will most likely contain liquid.

2. Loosen the locknut that keeps the adjusting screw from

turning while the pump is in operation.

3. Install a pressure gauge in the discharge line. This will

be required for the pressure adjustment operation.

4. Turn the adjusting screw in to increase the pressure and

out to decrease the pressure.

5. With the discharge line closed at a point beyond the

pressure gauge, the gauge will show the maximum

pressure that the valve will allow while the pump is in

operation

iMPOrTANT

When ordering parts for a pressure relief valve, always
