4.6. Functional Test: Before initiating automatic operation, operate the system manually to make sure all required functions operate properly
and safely.
4.7. Service or Replacement Intervals: It is the user’s responsibility to establish appropriate service intervals. Valves and FRLs contain
components that age, harden, wear, and otherwise deteriorate over time. Environmental conditions can significantly accelerate this process.
Valves and FRLs need to be serviced or replaced on routine intervals. Service intervals need to be established based on:
   •Previousperformanceexperiences.
   •Governmentand/orindustrialstandards.
   •Whenfailurescouldresultinunacceptabledowntime,equipmentdamageorpersonalinjuryrisk.
4.8. Servicing or Replacing of any Worn or Damaged Parts: To avoid unpredictable system behavior that can cause death, personal injury
and property damage:
