5. If the buyer should act in breach of contract, and particularly in the event of a default on payment, puteus GmbH will be authorized to withdraw the delivery item after giving formal notice and setting a time limit and the buyer will be obligated to return it. Neither assertion of the reservation of ownership nor seizure of the delivery item by puteus GmbH will be considered with drawal from the agreement.
6. The buyer is hereby authorized and empowered to resell, use, or incorporate the reserved product only in the conventional and proper course of business and only on the understanding that claims that have been assigned in accordance with the provisions above will in fact proceed to puteus GmbH. The buyer is not authorized to otherwise transfer the reserved product. The buyer may not pledge the reser- ved product nor transfer ownership as collateral. The buyer's authorization in ac- cordance with the first sentence of this paragraph will not apply in the event of im pending or already established insolvency or in the event of other essential dete- rioration of its financial circumstances.
7. The buyer must both promptly inform puteus GmbH of enforcement measures undertaken by third parties with respect to the delivery item with reserved owner ship or the claims assigned to us and deliver the documents necessary to chal- lenge the enforcement.
8. If the value of the total collateral granted to puteus GmbH should exceed puteus GmbH's claims by more than 20%, then puteus GmbH will be obligated and pre- pared to return or release to the buyer the collateral granted to puteus GmbH to the extent that it exceeds the agreed coverage limit.
Section 12 Blanket orders and call orders
1. If an on-call purchase is agreed with the buyer, then payment for outstanding deliveries will be due automatically upon expiry of the on-call term. The buyer will then be obligated to call for the outstanding deliveries and to pay the agreed pur- chase price as paid for the transfer of the property. With respect to any individual installment, in addition to fulfillment, puteus GmbH will have the right to demand compensation for pecuniary detriment or to proceed in accordance with Section 323 of the German Civil Code (BGB).
2. If the buyer should fail to call for the agreed deliveries within the agreed on-call term, then puteus GmbH will have the right to otherwise utilize the products without fixing a time limit. The same will apply if the buyer should file for bank ruptcy within the on-call term and/or become insolvent.
Section 13 Price clause
puteus GmbH hereby reserves the right to reasonably change its prices for all orders – including on-call orders and call-off contracts – that, either contractually or at the buyer's request, are delivered more than three months after the order was placed if costs should decline or increase after the contract was concluded, particularly due to wage increases or changes in the cost of materials. The orderer will be provided with evidence of such changes upon request.

Section 14 Proprietary rights, tools, models, and illustrations
1. Ifitemsaredeliveredbasedonillustrationsorotherdetailsprovidedbythebuyer, then it will be the buyer's responsibility to ensure their accuracy and that no third party proprietary rights are violated. The buyer must indemnify puteus GmbH against any claims by a holder of proprietary rights.
2. puteus GmbH may invoice for molds, models, tools, and equipment that are requi- red for the ordered product. They will remain property of puteus GmbH even if pu- teus GmbH manufactured them on behalf of the buyer and/or has paid the buyer in whole or in part. This will apply even if they were manufactured according to special instructions from the buyer, which uses them exclusively for deliveries to the orderer, as long as it fulfills its commitment and payment obligations and the business relationship persists.
3. If no parts are reordered two years after the last production, then puteus GmbH, after giving appropriate notice to the buyer and after a period of six weeks from receipt of notice by the buyer, will have the right to scrap or otherwise utilize the molds, models, tools, and manufactured equipment.
4. If the buyer should file for bankruptcy, puteus GmbH will be authorized to scrap or otherwise utilize the molds, models, tools, or manufactured equipment before two years have expired and without notifying the buyer in advance.
Section 15 Return of catalog products
Catalog products may only be returned due to product redelivery according to prior agreement and are to be undertaken freely. 30% of the handling costs will be de- ducted from any credit entries for re-saleable products.
Section 16 Place of fulfillment/legal venue
1. The place of fulfillment for all claims arising from the contractual relationship will be puteus GmbH's principle place of business.
2. For all present and future claims arising from the business relationship, including bills and checks receivable, the legal venue will be puteus GmbH's corporate head quarters. This will apply even if the buyer has no legal venue in Germany or if the buyer's domicile or usual residence is unknown at the time when proceedings are instituted. puteus GmbH will also be authorized to bring an action at the buyer's principle place of business.
3. The laws of the Federal Republic of Germany will apply. The terms of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply.
4. If particular terms of the agreement with the client, including these General Terms and Conditions, should be or become legally inoperable in whole or in part, the validity of the remaining terms will be wholly or partially unaffected. The wholly or partially inoperable provision will be replaced by a provision whose commercial
outcome approximates that of the inoperable term as closely as possible.
puteus GmbH, Lenenweg 6, D-47918 Tönisvorst Version: June 2020
Unless otherwise stated, all dimensions are in millimeters (mm) and weights are in grams (g). PN = nominal pressure in bars 1 bar 10N / cm2 => ca. 10 m column of water
DN = nominal diameter in inches or mm 1" = 25,4 mm => ca. 25 mm
Nominal pressure is the maximum applicable pressure at the standard temperature, which, unless otherwise stated, is 20°C.
Nominal diameter is the excess pressure when all operational conditions are taken into consideration, including pressure surges. It depends on the operating tem- perature, the medium, the size of the component/valve, and, where applicable, the type of seal.
There are legal provisions or regulations that apply to certain areas of application and that take precedence over the guidelines provided in this catalog.
Medium
The details presented in this catalog with respect to pressure and temperature conditions refer to water.
Suitability for gases, oils, or glycolic or other media should be investigated in light of the operating pressure and operating temperature. Our applicability information may not be applied to media or operating conditions other than those that have been approved without our clearance.
Custom models
If there are no articles in our standard program that are suitable for your needs, we can also create custom models upon request. For this, we would need a detailed letter of inquiry with the corresponding number of units as well as drawings or sample parts.
Installation instructions
A) Screw thread
Connection dimensions and screw thread of complementary proportions must always be selected.
The screw thread should not be too strongly sealed with hemp or sealing tape, which is to say that after the hemp has been applied, the crest of the thread must still be visible. Sealing the thread too strongly will increase the pressure in the component. Over time, that pressure can cause cracks.
To avoid causing damage during installation, the components should be conventionally screwed in with the appropriate, customary tools, without excessive force and without lever extension.
Self-sealing valves must not be sealed further with hemp or sealing tape. The corresponding mating thread must be of sufficient length (min. 12 mm). Where applicable, components are only to be installed on the spanner flats provided for that purpose by means of a suitable spanner/pliers. Our products must be installed without tension in due consideration for the information above. Alignment, e.g., of connections that we provide by means of heating appliances, is prohibited because this can also cause tension cracks and secondary damage later on.
Where applicable, connecting different metals or alloys can cause corrosion, for which puteus GmbH cannot be held liable (e.g., connections between brass and stainless steel or copper with zinc-plated metals). These characteristics are to be checked before our products are installed.
The components' pressure and sealing are to be carefully tested after installation. Where applicable, the installation instructions that are enclosed with the com- ponents are to be observed when doing so.
B) Gate valve
After disassembly/repairs/maintenance work, the upper section is only to be reassembled with a raised sealing wedge. Do not damage sealing surfaces/key
seats. Sealing wedges cannot be replaced.
C) Socket slide valve
These must only be installed in closed position. Key seats must not be damaged by screwing in pipes by force.
