• Before shipment seat surface and stems can be lubricated with a mixture of silicon free grease and it can be removed with solvent.
In case the valve is for oxygen, hydrogen and chlorine service, the seat duly selected, when cleaned and degreased,
can be used with food products.
• Butterfly valve with disc and stems in stainless steel and with the seat duly selected, when cleaned and degreased, can be used
with food products.
• The valve can be installed in the pipeline in any position.
• Before installing the valve, the pipeline must be cleaned from dirt and welding residues. Otherwise seat may be damaged.
• Pipe must be free of tension.
• Wafer and Lug type butterfly valves can be installed directly in between flanges without
interposing any gasket. A single series of ‘0’ rings as of the seat profile of the vulcanized rubber guarantees a thorough external tightness.
• Installation in line related to wafer butterfly valve (on the existing pipe.)
• Verify the distance between two flanges to be equal to face to face valve dimension.
• In order to facilitate installation of the valve, allow with adequate tools a sufficient room in between flanges.
• Insert in the lower part of flanges at least two flange-bolts.
• Close disc at 70° when you do not use valve.
• Insert the valve in between flanges, valve shall be held by the two flange-bolts previously fitted in the lower part of flanges.
• Insert the flange-bolt through centering lugs of valve.
• Insert all the remaining flange-bolts aligning the valve with the flanges and tightening flange-bolts manually.
• Maintain the valve aligned, remove gradually flange spreaders and tighten bolts partially.
• Control open / close operation of valve would be easy and smooth.
• Open the valve and complete cross tighten the bolts to adequate torque.
• Installation of Lug type butterfly valves has same procedure of wafer type using studs instead of bolts and nuts.
• Installation in line related to wafer butterfly valve (in the new pipeline.)
• Centering the two flanges with the valve body.
• Span the body with some flange-bolts and tighten the bolts partially.
Finish tightening by uniform cross bolting.
• Use the flange-valve-flange unit to fit up and pipe centering.
• Tack-weld the flanges to the pipe.
• Remove the bolting and the valve from the flanges.
Important : do not complete flanges welding procedure when the valve is inserted as high heat temperature can damage valve seat.
• Weld flanges to the pipe and wait until completely cooled
• Install the valve following the installation instructions on existing pipeline.
Installing Procedure
Correct installing Procedure
• A pipe flange not spreaded enough can tear rubber, open disc when installing the valve, may hit against pipe
flanges and may cause damage to disc profile.
• Valve installation with totally closed disc can distort seat during bolt tightening and may increase initial torque.
• Do not use gaskets between valve and flanges.
<Assembling of valve>
• Lubricate with seat protection grease outside seat area and insert it in the valve body for longer seat life.
• Match perfectly seat holes with body holes using a round bar with a conical end.
• Apply seat protection grease on internal seat surface where contact with disc edge.
• Insert disc : pushing and rotating it towards the seat location, the square connection aligned to the valve neck.
• Before insert upper stem, Put packing into body, retainer plate to stem, then pull upper stem down to disc and fastern the
retainer plate screw up.
• Install indicating plate or assemble gear unit.
• insert lever into stem by light wooden hammer and fasten bolt.
Operating Instruction
Manual Operation
• Open and close operations are obtained with a quarter turn by handlever(90°). Handlever is supplied in plate epoxy coated
from 50mm~150mm and ductile iron epoxy coated lever for 200mm, 250mm & 300mm. When watching to the lever position,
it is easy to identify whether the valve is opened or closed.
• The valve is in the open position when the lever is in line with the pipe. (i,e. in line transversal to the valve)
• The valve is in closed position when the lever is transversal to the pipe. (i,e. in line with the valve)
Remote Control
• When the manual operation is not required, the valve can be operated automatically with remote control by means of an
actuator either pneumatic or electric or gas over oil.
• When it is required pneumatic actuator with the valve, no assembly problems arise since the valve is supplied with actuator
directly fitted.
• Usually the valve is supplied without limit switch as this makes part of the operators, when required.
Warranty
Butterfly Valves warrants to the original purchaser, for a period of 12 months from after the date of purchase that its products will
be free from defects in workmanship and materials, not caused or resulting from improper usage application.
Improper installation, improper maintenance, repair modification or alterations, ST&H shall not, cause the defective products to be
repaired, replace with a substantially identical products or accept the return of defective products and refund the purchasing price
to the original purchaser.
ST&H shall bear all normal surface transportation costs to the original purchaser but not for any installation,
engineering or other costs incurred in connection with repair or replacement.
