Series BVA/F, BVAP/F , ASME 2 Page 6 Notes on safety This operating manual contains fundamental information which is to be observed during g installatio installation, operation and maintenance. It must therefore be read before installation allation and commissioning! For valves which are used in potentially ly explosive areas, see Section 3. Installation and operation are to be performed erformed by qualified staff.
Series BVA/F, BVAP/F , ASME 3 Page 7 Safety notes for applications in potentially explosive xplosive areas based on the Directive rective 94/9/ EC (ATEX) (A The valves are intended for use e in a potentially explosive area and are therefore e subject to the conformity assessment procedure e of the directive 94/9/EC (ATEX).
Series BVA/F, BVAP/F , ASME Page 8 Attachments such as actuators, position controllers, limit switches etc. must satisfy the relevant safety regulations as regards explosion protection and, if required, be designed in compliance with ATEX. 4 Transport, storage and disposal It is imperative, for all transport work, to observe generally accepted engineering practice and the accident prevention regulations. The valve is supplied with flange caps. Do not remove them until just before installation.
Series BVA/F, BVAP/F , ASME 5 Page 9 Installation Examine valve for in-transit damage, damaged ball valves must not be installed. Before installation the valve and the connecting pipe must be carefully cleaned to remove any dirt, especially hard foreign matter. During installation, pay attention to the correct tightening torque, aligned pipes and tension-free assembly. Ensure that a remotely actuated actuator cannot be accidentally switched on. 5.1 5.
Series BVA/F, BVAP/F , ASME 6 Operation 6.1 Initial commissioning Normally, the ball valves have been tested for leaks with air or water. Prior to initial operation check body bolting. For torques see Section 1.2. Unless otherwise agreed, there could be residual amounts of water in the flow section of the ball valve; this could result in a possible reaction with the medium.
Series BVA/F, BVAP/F , ASME 7 Page 11 Malfunctions Flange connection ball valve/pipe is leaking Retighten the flange screws to a tightening torque according to Section 1.2. If this does not remedy the leak, the recommended torques may be exceeded by 10%. If this also fails to stop the leak, dismantle and inspect the ball valve. The ball no longer closes completely Is the stem deformed? Is the coupling worn? With a worm gear or actuator, check whether the end stops can be re-adjusted.
Series BVA/F, BVAP/F , ASME 8.2 Assembly BVA/F, BVAP/F with ball/stem unit Prior to assembly all parts are to be cleaned and the plastic-lined components checked for damage. Insert seat rings 401 in the main body 101 and body end piece 102. Mount ball/stem unit 201 in closed position. Make sure that the packing chamber is not damaged. A relief bore in the ball/stem unit must lie on the p1 side in the closed position. Mount body end piece 102.
Series BVA/F, BVAP/F , ASME 8.4 Assembly with ball and stem Prior to assembly all parts are to be cleaned and the plastic-lined components checked for damage. An entire assembly procedure is described. Insert seat rings 401 into the main body 101 and body end piece 102. Insert stem 202 from inside into the main body 101. Move stem 202 into the 'closed' position. Swivel ball 200 into the stem 202. A relief or drain bore must lie on the p1 side in the closed position.. See also Section 6.2.
