Installation and Maintenance: Key Points for Operation and Maintenance of German Standard Bellows Globe Valves

The German standard bellows globe valve has been widely used in the field of fluid control due to its excellent sealing performance and reliability. However, proper installation and regular maintenance are key to ensuring its long-term stable operation. This article will provide a detailed explanation of the installation points and maintenance of German standard bellows globe valves.

1、 Installation points

Installation location selection: German standard corrugated pipe globe valves should be prioritized for installation in the horizontal part of the pipeline to ensure smooth opening and closing of the valve and avoid affecting the normal operation of the pipeline. In special circumstances, such as when the pipeline needs to rise or fall vertically, the position of the valve should also be adjusted accordingly.

Installation angle and direction: The bellows globe valve must be installed at a right angle to the horizontal plane to ensure that the medium does not backflow. In addition, during installation, it should be ensured that the length of the valve matches the distance from the pipeline to avoid leakage or operational difficulties caused by improper installation.

Material and medium matching: When selecting a bellows globe valve, it is necessary to consider whether the materials of the valve, valve body, and sealing components are suitable for the medium flowing in the pipeline. The selection of materials should ensure that the valve can operate stably for a long time and has good corrosion resistance performance.

2、 Key points of maintenance and upkeep

Sealing performance inspection: Regularly check the sealing performance of the corrugated pipe globe valve. If any leakage or malfunction is found, timely repair or replacement of sealing components should be carried out. Maintaining good sealing of the valve is the key to ensuring its normal operation.

Operational performance maintenance: Regularly check the operational performance of the valve to ensure that it can open and close smoothly. If any abnormalities are found, the debris inside the valve should be promptly cleaned or necessary repairs should be carried out.

Cleaning and maintenance: Regularly clean the valve, remove sediment and debris inside the valve, and ensure that the valve is unobstructed. At the same time, tighten the connecting components, screws, nuts, etc. of the valve to prevent loosening.

Anti corrosion treatment: Regularly check the anti-corrosion performance of the valve. If there is damage or corrosion, it should be repaired or replaced in a timely manner. For valves exposed to harsh environments, additional anti-corrosion measures need to be taken.

Attachment and Attachment Inspection: Regularly inspect the attachments of valves, such as electric motors, travel switches, manual devices, etc., to ensure their normal operation. At the same time, check the sealing ring and gasket of the valve. If wear or aging is found, it should be replaced in a timely manner.

Handling during shutdown: When the bellows stop valve is stopped, the valve should be in the closed position to avoid leakage and entry of debris. At the same time, record the inspection and maintenance status of the valve in order to promptly identify problems and take measures.

In summary, correct installation and regular maintenance are the key to ensuring the long-term stable operation of German standard bellows globe valves. By following the above points, the performance of the valve can be maximized, its service life can be extended, and strong guarantees can be provided for the stable operation of the fluid control system.
