Storage and Installation

Installation Cautions

  • Store the product indoors in a dust free, low humidity, dry and ventilated environment.
  • Installation should be conducted by suitably trained personnel, wearing protective head, eye, hand and foot protection.
  • Make sure that the direction of fluid flow matches the arrow marked on the product.
  • Align the center of the valve and the connected pipe so that they will be in line to avoid excessive piping stress.
  • If freezing is expected, conduct freezing prevention measures or water draining treatment.
  • The valve can be installed in both horizontal and vertical pipes, from upright to sideways. Do not install the valve upside down.

To use the valve for high-temperature fluids (approximately 200°C or higher), raise the valve temperature to the operating temperature, and then tighten the bolts additionally. Ensure that the valve is open, and tighten the bolts in a diagonal sequence using a torque wrench.

Operation

Safety Warning

Before applying fluid, make sure that there is no danger if the fluid flows into the end of the piping. Failure to follow this notice may result in property damage due to fluid leakage.

Operational Tips

  • When using the product with its valve fully open, turn the handle counterclockwise by 45 degrees from the fully open position to prevent the valve from being stuck.
  • Do not try to turn the handle beyond its fully open/closed positions. Otherwise, the valve may be damaged.

Sizes 200A and larger are equipped with Valve (S) to reduce the opening torque. When opening the valve, first rotate the Handle by approximately one full turn to open the Valve (S) and allow the differential pressure between the inlet and outlet pressures to reduce before continuing to operate the Handle.

When applying grease to the sleeve (recommendation: Henkel LOCTITE LB 8150), remove the lock bolt and put grease into the screw hole.

Troubleshooting

TroubleCauseRemedy
Leakage from between the body and the bonnetStress relief of gasketTighten the bolt additionally. If leakage does not stop after retightening, replace the product.
Leakage from the gland packing partDamage of the bellowsTighten the gland nut. Then, replace the product immediately.
Leakage from the valve and/or valve seat on complete closingThe valve and/or valve seat are damaged / Foreign matter caughtReplace the product with new one / Remove the foreign substance.
Operation torque of the handle is abnormally largePoor lubrication of the sleeve / Foreign substance is stuck on spindle and screw partApply grease to the sleeve / Remove the foreign substance.
