1. Before installation, check the valve name plate and valve body information to ensure the valve is suitable for the intended service.
2. Before installation, remove the flange cover and the protective film on the flange sealing face, and disc support, inspect the bore and the flange sealing surface, remove any dirt with clean soft cloth, use an anti-corrosive cleaning liquid to clean if necessary, and never use any other chemical products.
3. Inspect the flange gasket (including ring gasket) sealing surface and ensure it is in acceptable condition for installation.
- Position the valve into the pipe or the flange connection; ensure that any stress caused by improper pipe alignment is relieved first. Valves are not intended to be a means of aligning improperly fitted pipe.
- Valves marked with flow direction must be installed in line with the piping flow.
- In horizontal flow installation, the hinge pin must be vertical.
- In liquid service we recommend valve be installed at least five pipe diameters downstream from a pump discharge and/or other pipe fittings for maximum service life.
- Dual plate check valves are not piggable.
- To maximize the life of check valve, it should be installed a sufficient distance from turbulence source to ensure the valve is in fully developed flow.
| PROBLEM | PROBABLE CAUSE | SOLUTION |
|
Leakage between disc and seat |
Dirt on the sealing surface |
Clean the sealing surface |
|
Sealing surfaces damaged by abrasion and erosion |
Re-overlaying and machining sealing surfaces till meet requirement |
|
|
Disc distorted caused by loading force due to too quick closing speed |
Replacing with new disc |
|
|
Valve is without function of controlling back-flow of medium |
Reverse direction of installation |
Install valve again to keep consistent with flow direction |
|
Opening and closing not easily |
Distortion of pin axis due to wearing and tearing |
Replacing pin |
|
Rust erosion of pin axis |
Take it out, repair the surface and put on lubricant grease before assembly |
