Installation/Set-Up Challenges for Aluminium Bronze Butterfly Valves

When using Aluminium Bronze Butterfly Valves, some common installation or setup challenges may include:

  1. Proper Sizing: Ensuring the correct sizing of the valve to the pipeline to prevent inefficiencies or flow restrictions.

  2. Sealing: Proper installation of gaskets and seals to prevent leakage at the valve joints.

  3. Alignment: Ensuring proper alignment of the valve between flanges to avoid operational issues or damage to the valve components.

  4. Torque Requirements: Understanding and applying the correct torque during installation to ensure proper operation and prevent issues like over-tightening or under-tightening of the valve.

  5. Material Compatibility: Ensuring that the materials in contact with the valve are compatible with Aluminium Bronze to avoid corrosion or other material-related issues.

  6. Proper Handling: Carefully handling the valves during installation to prevent damage to the valve body, disc, or stem.

  7. Appropriate Actuation: Selecting and properly installing the correct actuator type (manual, pneumatic, electric) based on the application requirements and ensuring compatibility with the valve.

It is recommended to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions and guidelines specific to the Aluminium Bronze Butterfly Valves being used to address these challenges effectively.
