Maintenance Tips

• Regular Inspection: Periodically check the valve for signs of wear, corrosion, or leakage.

• Cleaning: Ensure that the valve and surrounding areas are free from debris and buildup that could affect performance.

• Lubrication: Apply appropriate lubricants to moving parts as recommended by the manufacturer to ensure smooth operation.

• Stem Packing: If leakage occurs at the stem packing, tighten the packing nut clockwise to stop the leak. If the leak persists, replace the stem packing. This can be done under full system pressure.

• Flow Adjustment: Use the valve's adjustable stem to regulate flow as needed for system balancing.

• Pressure Monitoring: Regularly monitor system pressure to ensure it remains within the valve's specified limits.
