CHECKOUT
1. Make sure the valve stem operates smoothly before installing the valve linkage and the
actuator.
2. If the stem does not operate smoothly, it may indicate that the valve was twisted or
crushed during installation or that the stem was bent by rough handling. These
conditions may require that the valve be replaced.
3. After the piping is under pressure, check the valve body and the connections for leaks.
4. After the valve linkage and the actuator are installed, check their operation.
MAINTENANCE &
FIELD REPAIR
Regular maintenance of the total system is recommended to assure sustained performance.
See Table-9 for maintenance kit part numbers.
Table-9 Maintenance Kits for VB-7283 Valves.
Water System
Maintenance
All heating and cooling systems are susceptible to valve and system problems caused by
improper water treatment and system storage procedures. These guidelines are provided to
help avoid valve and water system problems resulting from improperly treated water or
storage procedures in cooling and hot water systems, and to obtain maximum life from TAC
valves.
Durability of valve stems and packings is dependent on maintaining non-damaging water
conditions. Inadequate water treatment or filtration, not in accordance with chemical
supplier/ASHRAE handbook recommendations, can result in corrosion, scale, and abrasive
particle formation. Scale and particulates can result in stem and packing scratches and can
adversely affect packing life and other parts of the hydronic system.
To maintain non-damaging conditions, follow these guidelines:
• Clean the system prior to start up. Use a nitrite or molybdate-based treatment program.
• Use filtration equipment where needed.
• Properly store off-line systems and monitor water treatment results using corrosion test
coupons.
• Follow the advice of a water treatment professional.
• Consult EN-205, Water System Guidelines Engineering Information, F-26080, for
further details.
