Installation Instructions
Mounting position and pressure limits: Valves can be mounted
directly on piping and are designed to operate in any position. The
valves may be installed in any line regardless of the direction in
which the line runs. However, for optimum life and performance the
valves should be mounted vertically upright so as to minimize wear
and reduce the possibility of foreign matter accumulating inside the
stem area.
Line pressure and pilot pressure must conform to Actuator
nameplate rating.
WARNING:Depressurize system and turn off electrical power to
the pilot valve before attempting to remove valve from piping.
Failure to depressurize the system could result in injury.
CAUTION: When the valve is to be removed from the piping
system, the pipeline must be drained completely before removing
the valve, especially with hazardous or aggressive media that can
be hazardous to health.
Installation Steps
Installation must be done according to all applicable Safety Codes
and Standards and by qualified personnel.
Inspect valve prior to installation. Damaged valves or actuators
must not be installed.
Ensure that the valves are installed whose pressure class, line
pressure, type of connection and connection dimensions
correspond to the usage conditions.
WARNING:Do not install a valve whose permitted pressure /
temperature ratings are inadequate to meet the operating
conditions.
Piping: Remove any protective enclosures from the body ports
and connect line pressure to the inlet port of the valve. An arrow on
the body indicates direction of flow. Use of Teflon tape, thread
compound or sealant is permissible, but should be used sparingly
on male pipe threads only. Connect outlet line to the opposite port.
Ports should not be subjected to excessive torque by use of an
oversized wrench, wrench extension or by impacting the wrench
handle. Do not use the valve to “stretch” or “align” the pipe. Using
the pipe to close a large gap can distort the valve or at least stress
it unduly, and possibly cause it to malfunction, or the threaded ports
may be damaged or stripped.
Actuation Connection
Actuator position can be adjusted with a clockwise rotation of the
actuator.
Connecting the actuator to the control:
A 3-way pilot is required to connect the control pressure for actuator
functionality.
For actuator types with springs, connect the pilot pressure to the
inlet of the pilot valve and the outlet of the pilot valve to the
threaded connection on the actuator head.
Pressure Testing and Valve Functioning
It is recommended that newly installed pipeline systems first be
flushed thoroughly to wash out all foreign matter.
The test pressure of an open valve must not exceed 1.5 times the
maximum rated pressure of the angle seat valve. The test pressure
of a closed valve must not exceed 1.1 times the maximum rated
pressure of the angle seat valve.
Normal Operation and Maintenance
The angle seat valves are operated by pneumatic control signals.
The valves do not require regular maintenance work.
During routine system checks, no leakage should be found in the
valve. If unacceptable leakage occurs, reference “Troubleshooting”
section for recommended solutions.
If a valve is to be removed from a pipeline carrying hazardous
media, the parts of the valve in contact with the hazardous media
must be properly cleaned and decontaminated before repairs are
performed.
CAUTION: When the valve is to be removed from the piping
system, the pipeline must be drained completely before removing
the valve, especially with hazardous or aggressive media that can
be hazardous to health.
NOTE: Depending on service conditions, fluid being used, filtration,
and lubrication, it may be required to periodically clean or replace
the valve.
For liquids, use versions with flow direction under the seat to avoid
water hammer effect
CAUTION:Do not expose plastic or elastomeric materials to any
type of commercial cleaning fluid. Parts should be cleaned with a
mild soap and water solution.
