5.1
Installation position
With regard to the installation position, pay attention to the arrow showing the flow direction. When
mounting the globe valve in a horizontal pipeline, a vertical position of the operating mechanism or an
inclination of up to 45° from the vertical is recommended.
5.2
Notices regarding the mounting
Use suitable tools.
Allen keys of sizes 6, 8, 10, 14, 19
Open-ended spanners
Torque wrench
Welding machine
Clean tools before the mounting.
Use suitable transport and lifting equipment for the mounting.
Open the packaging only directly before the mounting. Free from oil and grease for oxygen (O
Globe valves for oxygen are permanently labelled with "O
Take note of the HEROSE information sheet "O
Only install the globe valve if the maximum operating pressure and operating conditions of the
plant correspond to the valving marking on the globe valve.
Remove protective caps or covers before mounting.
Check the globe valve for dirt and damage.
DO NOT install damaged or dirty globe valves.
Remove dirt and residues from the pipeline and globe valve in order to prevent leaks.
Avoid damaging the ends of the body.
The sealing surfaces must remain clean and intact.
Seal the globe valve with suitable seals.
No sealant (sealing tape, liquid sealing tape) may enter the globe valves.
Respect the suitability for use with O
Connect pipelines in a force-free and torque-free manner.
Stress-free mounting.
In order to ensure trouble-free operation, no impermissible static, thermal or dynamic stresses
may be transmitted to the globe valve. Observe reaction forces.
Temperature-dependent changes in length in the pipework system must be compensated with
expansion joints.
The globe valve is supported by the pipework system.
Detailed installation instructions are included for globe valves with actuators.
Driven globe valves: mounting/dismounting the bonnet in the middle position of the actuator.
The globe valve must be protected against dirt and damage during construction work.
Remove any transport locks such as blocking bushing (optional).
Check the leak-tightness.
