Air operated valve
1. Remove diaphragm cover on operation part and remove diaphragm.
2. Since valve and diaphragm plate are connected by bolt, pass a bar through hole for fixing valve, loosen bolt
by bar spanner, and remove plate. In this occasion, be careful that spring rebounds with strong force.
3. After removing diaphragm plate and spring plate, frame can be removed by removing lock nut and set screw
holding frame.
4. Next, remove upper cover of body (gland part Ass'y). Loosen gland nut in advance. Remove bottom cover.
5. After removing upper part, get out valve from bottom straightly. By above procedure, the product can be
disassembled from upper part in order. Also, assembly is the reverse order of disassembly.
Fluid does not flow (Valve
disc is kept closing and
does not open).
Trouble Cause Remedy
Fluid keeps
flowing and does
not stop (Valve
disc is kept
opening and
does not close).
Or, there is valve
leakage.
Fluid leaks from the
connection part of
packing case and body.
Fluid leaks
from the leak
detection port.
Pilot pressure
leaks from position
indicator part.
1. Make periodical inspection to check that diaphragm is not damaged.
2. Be careful for damage on contact surface of valve and valve seat. It becomes cause of fluid leakage. If
contact surface is damaged by dirt entry, make lapping with mixed sand.
3. Packing is consumable supply. If getting old, replace with new one.
4. Conduct inspection for spring buckling and stem bending, etc.
