Warning
For safety reasons, it is important to take the
following precautions before you start work on
the valve:
1. Personnel making any adjustments to the
valves should utilize suitable equipment.
All required personal protection means should
be worn.
2. The line must be depressurized before
installing the valve. In case of dangerous
pipeline fluids, the pipeline should be drained
and flushed properly with an appropriate
cleaning fluid.
3. Personnel trained in all aspects of manual and
mechanical handling techniques must carry
out handling of all valves.
4. Misuse of the valve is not allowed.
For example: the valve, handles, actuators or
other parts may not be used as 'climbing tools'.
5. Ensure the valve pressure/temperature
specification as indicated on the identification
label, is within the pressure/temperature
limits of the application. A full pressure/
temperature diagram can be obtained from
the Product Manual. With the use of the figure
and trim number on the valve's identification
label, the correct diagram can be found.
6. Ensure that valve materials are compatible
with the pipeline fluid.

2. Keystone valves are bi-directional unless
(drilling)
fitted with a flow direction arrow. If a
directional arrow is fitted then the valve
must be installed with the arrow pointing in
the direction of the flow.

5. Do not use the valve to spread the flanges.
6. Instructions whether to use or to omit flange
gaskets are stated in the Maintenance and
Installation Instructions.

7. In case the valve is used as spool piece
during erection of piping, do not finish weld
the flanges to the pipes with the valve bolted
between the flanges as this will result in
serious heat-damage to the seat.
8. Valve operation should be checked for
open - close positions. The disc should have
enough clearance from the pipeline in all
positions.
9. In case of CompoSeal valves:
a. Do not overtighten the flange screws.
See the specific Installation and
Maintenance Instructions for maximum
allowable bolting torque.
b. Do not use CompoSeal valves in area's
sensitive to earthquakes.
