Instructions for use:

  • When storing gate valves in storage, their sealing slide should be fully open.
  • The environmental conditions of the warehouse to increase the lifespan of the product and rubber parts should be as follows:
    • Ambient temperature maximum 60 degrees Celsius
    • Maximum ambient humidity 70%
    • Away from direct sunlight
  • Due to corrosion and oxidation of the product in case of discoloration, care must be taken during transportation to prevent impact.
  • When transporting and unloading from the machine, avoid throwing or impacting it, as this will damage the axle rod and the product’s color.
  • Never lift the valve using its handle.
  • Before installing the valve, the pipe path must be cleaned of any dirt and debris such as gravel, wood particles, bolts, etc. If there is a possibility of such objects entering the pipeline, a strainer must be installed in the path of the valve.
  • When closing the valve, make sure that there is no tension in the connection. If the valve is connected via a flange, the corresponding screws should be tightened crosswise.

Maintenance, installation and operation instructions

Sliding gate valve

1- Installation instructions

Preparing the installation site:

  • The pipes must be perfectly aligned so that no pressure is placed on the valve flanges.
  • Flanges and connecting gaskets must be clean and free of any solid particles.

How to connect:

  • Use appropriate bolts and nuts with the torque specified by the manufacturer.
  • Bolts and nuts should be tightened crosswise and evenly to prevent localized stress.

For installation:

  • Slide gate valves are usually two-way, but if there is a flow direction arrow on the body, installation must be done accordingly.
  • The valve can be installed vertically or horizontally (with the valve facing up), provided that ease of operation is ensured.

Post-installation testing:

  • After installation, the network must be pressure tested to ensure there are no leaks at the connections.
  • The opening and closing performance of the valve should be checked at least once before final operation.

2- Operation (setup and use)

Opening and closing the valve:

  • Opening and closing operations should be performed by slowly rotating the gearbox or gearbox to prevent sudden pressure on the components.
  • If a gear valve is used, the direction of rotation for the open and closed positions must be clearly labeled.
  • Avoid applying excessive force or using non-standard tools to open and close the valve.

Performance control:

  • Check the valve for full operation in both the fully open and fully closed positions.
  • Avoid placing the valve in a half-open position, except in special cases foreseen in the design.

Prevent pressure fluctuations:

  • In networks with severe pressure fluctuations, the use of protective equipment such as pressure relief valves or surge arrestors is recommended.

3- Maintenance and warehousing

Warehouse conditions:

  • Valves should be stored in a dry, clean, and well-ventilated environment.
  • Avoid direct contact of the milk with the ground, moisture, or direct sunlight.
  • In case of long-term storage, it is recommended to protect the valve connections with plastic cover.

Periodic inspection in the warehouse:

  • Check the valve's appearance every three months for rust, cracks, or deformation.
  • If there are mechanical accessories such as gearboxes, apply light lubrication.

Protection of metal surfaces:

  • If damage is observed in the epoxy coating or uncoated areas, the surface should be repaired with industrial rust-proof paint.
