Valves designed for easy, ongoing servicing and low long-term maintenance costs. One of the most reliable valve designs used in industrial and OEM applications is the ball valve, a quarter-turn on/off valve with a pivoting ball that controls the flow of gas or fluid media.

Ball valves are available in a variety of body styles, including reduced bore, full bore and V-notch. 0000006817 00000 n The best practice is to follow the manufacturers recommendations or if the valve is working properly do not apply grease. Fitting failure is the cause of technician injuryand/or death. For valves supplied with a Stauffer type grease cup, the cup should be checked to assure that it is full so that the grease can be injected by turning the screw cap. Preventive Maintenance Services. Replace defective or damaged fittings. Looking for a replacement part or a specific model? Pressure classification (ASME/ANSI 600 lb, API 3000 psi). required to top-up any valve can vary greatly depending on the valve size, design, cycle frequency, service conditions and riser pipe height, if applicable. CRYOGENIC THREE PIECE BALL VALVE. For this reason, three-piece ball valves are favored for high-cycle and high-pressure applications that subject the seal components to lots of wear and tear. Be sure you use cleaning agents that wont react negatively with the valve materials: Gas-based or compressed air cleaners work well for metal components, and alcohol- or water-based cleaners are ideal for non-metal parts. 0000001442 00000 n A single injection fitting with integral check valve is installed in this port, and a secondary check valve below the injection fitting is not supplied with the standard design (Reference Figures 1 and 2). Many ball valve manufacturers will provide an estimate of the expected lifespan of a ball valve, and proper maintenance can certainly extend this range. When the ball floats due to a pressure differential across the valve, the seals cannot track the ball and leakage can occur. /Form Do 0000199580 00000 n 0000006548 00000 n 1. endstream endobj 55 0 obj <> endobj 56 0 obj <> endobj 57 0 obj <>stream /ID [<36e88a359b982c7a38b9dd6fb57144cb><36e88a359b982c7a38b9dd6fb57144cb>] butterfly valve (12 pages), High performance butterfly valve (14 pages), 3-24 150/300/600 class triple offset valve (20 pages), Hi-integrity trunnion mounted ball valve (24 pages), Resilient-seated butterfly valve (11 pages), Double block and bleed plug valve (34 pages), Cryogenic three piece ball valve (5 pages), Manual will be automatically added to "My Manuals", Installation, operation and maintenance manual, Control Unit Cameron WKM MB Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron WKM Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron WKM 370D6 Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron Pow-R-Seal WKM Series Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron TYPE 31 Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron TK Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron Demco Installation, Operation & Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron W-K-M 370D5 Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron GENERAL VALVE Twin Seal 400 Series Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron Dynatorque IOMSRD Manual, Control Unit Cameron TBV 2100 Series Operation And Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron WHEATLEY 500 Series Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual, Control Unit Cameron W-K-M DynaSeal 210F Installation, Operation And Maintenance Manual.
