Installation and Operation
1. Before installation, check whether the valve model can meet the service co-nditions.
2. For the soft seal like rubber or PTFE etc., check whether there is any foreignsubstance in valve cavity and sealing face. If any, have it cleaned.
3. Before installation, user shall take into consideration of the necessary space for the drive unit of valve.
4. The electric (electro-hydraulic) valve has already been commissioned before being delivered out of the factory. For the first time of use, to avoid false co-nnection, turn the valve to half opened with hand, and then, connect in power supply to carry out no-load test opening.
5. Pneumatic (hydraulic) valve shall be assured of enough pneumatic (hydraulic)pressure in the source of air supply.
6. Upon installation, all bolts shall be evenly fastened.
7. Upon installation, don’t have sudden impact on valve or screw any parts on valve at random.
8. If the upper seal of valve is exposed, fill in sealing grease on a regular basis.
9. In the relatively dry area, if the drive unit of valve is spur gear, fill in lubrication oil on a regular basis.
