WAM butterfly valve is a kind of regulating valve with simple structure. When it is used, the circular butterfly plate can adjust or open and close the valve by rotating around the axis in the valve body. WAM butterfly valve with high quality can be used in various media, so it is widely used in low-pressure pipeline. However, if you want to use the WAM butterfly valve well, you should pay attention to the following problems during installation.

What should be paid attention to when installing WAM butterfly valve?

1. The center of valve and pipe should be consistent

Only by ensuring that the valve center and pipe center of WAM butterfly valve are consistent, can the installed WAM butterfly valve play an ideal regulating role. Therefore, when installing the butterfly valve, do not lock the fixing bolts first, but carefully open the valve plate to the full open position, then check the consistency between the valve center and the pipe center, and continue the installation after confirming that there is no error.

2. Pay attention to the treatment of welding flange

During installation of WAM butterfly valve, it is necessary to use welding flange to connect it to the pipeline. However, it is necessary to use tools such as lathe to polish the edge of welding flange smoothly. In addition, the surface of flange shall not be damaged or deformed at all. During connection, it is also necessary to clean the dirt and foreign matters on the flange first to avoid leakage due to poor contact with WAM butterfly valve .

3. Do not step on the valve

Although the structure of WAM butterfly valve is relatively simple, it plays an important role in pressure vessels and pipelines. Therefore, pay attention not to step on the WAM butterfly valve during installation. In addition, when installing the actuator, pay attention to provide an effective support for WAM butterfly valve to avoid distortion of the valve neck.

The above points are the problems that need attention when installing WAM butterfly valve. As the valve is a very important control tool for the medium container, it is necessary to select the best-selling WAM butterfly valve for use, and also use the correct method to install, so as to avoid the failure of normal use of the valve due to the negligence in the installation process.
