INSTALLATION, OPERATION & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
HANDLING & STORAGE
HANDLING
Do not drop or throw the product as it may break.
STORAGE
• Store away from dust, moisture and direct sunlight.
If possible, store in the original package.
• Do not remove a dust proof cap until the piping.
CHECKING
• Check the product code, power supply, and voltage
before installation.
• Make sure that the bolts are not loose.
• The DIP switch should be set up before the power is
turned on. Do not touch unnecessary switches.
INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS
• Flush the pipeline carefully before installing the valve.
Foreign particles, such as sand or pieces of welding
electrode, will damage the disk and seats.
• Seat has ribs for tight gasket seating. Do not use
gasket.
• Valve is shipped closed. (allows quick piping.)
• The butterfly valve should be piped upstream of the
elbow. When piping downstream from the elbow,
considered a straight line that is at least five times
the length of the pipe.
• The valve stem should be mounted perpendicular to
the flow for biased fluid.
• Disc interference may also occur when valve is
installed in pipeline with smaller than normal inside
diameter such as thick wall pipe, or lining pipe.
Suitable corrective measurement must be taken (taper
boring the pipe or pipe liner, etc.)
• When you use a vinyl chloride flange, there is a
caliber to be internal off the corners. Please cut off
the corners with reference to the following. (F, FN)

• Avoid oil or grease when using EPDM seat.
PIPING FLANGES (F, FN, FE)
• Class JIS 5K and JIS 10K pipe flanges can be used
for FN series. See the drawing below for centering the
valve with bolts.
JIS 5K JIS 10K
• Wafer type butterfly valve is put between two seats of
flanged-end and tightened with long bolts.
• Before bolts are tightened, valve should be centered
within the bolts to prevent possible disc interference or
damage by contact with the pipe or flange.
• Tighten all bolts using crossover method to load the
joint evenly.
• When using a resin flange, if the connecting bolt is
tightened too much, the flange may deform and
leak.
