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.
CHECKING
• Check the product code before installation.
• Make sure that the bolts are not loose.
HANDLING OF MANUAL OPERATION
• Be careful about temperature of a lever / handle part,
when using it for the fluid of the high temperature or
low.
• Avoid the operation with bare hands, and make a
protective measure.
• For manual operation, loosen the butterfly nut before
operating. After operation, tighten the butterfly nut to
secure the position.
INSTALLATION
PRECAUTIONS
• Flush the pipeline carefully before installing the
damper. Foreign particles, such as sand or pieces of
welding electrode, will damage the disk and seats.
• For dampers with specified flow direction (WT),
check the arrows on the product before piping.
• Damper is shipped closed. (allows quick piping.)
• Disc interference may also occur when damper 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.)
PIPING FLANGES
• Gasket should be selected appropriately to suit the
fluid, pressure and temperature.
Use spring washer to prevent from decreasing
surface pressure gasket when the temperature
change happens frequently.
• Wafer type butterfly damper is put between two
seats of flanged-end and tightened with long bolts.
• Before bolts are tightened, damper 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.
ENVIRONMENT
If there is a possibility that the fluid and drive part
freeze, please take measures to prevent freezing.
POSITIONING
Should be positioned through 90° upward from
horizontal. Provide space around the product to
allow manual operation, inspection and replacement
work.
INSULATION WORK
• For maintenance of gland packing, insulation should
be below the ground part.
• The upper part of the ground plate part is a heat
dissipation part, do not insulate it.
TIGHTEN THE GLAND NUTS
• Check that there is no leakage from the gland
packing.
• If it leakage, tighten gland nuts by alternately.
Do not over-tighten the gland nuts.

MAINTENANCE
Do the routine maintenance at least once in half a
year.
Inspection items
• Confirm operation of opening and closing.
• Confirm whether screws are loose or not.
• Confirm the fluid temperature or pressure.
• Confirm the leak from damper stem.
• Confirm the bolt tightening torque.
