What Are The Installation Methods Of Stainless Steel Elbows?
Do you know how we usually need to install Stainless Steel Weld Elbow? What are the installation methods of stainless steel elbows? Let's follow Zhitong Pipe Valve to learn about it!
The installation method of stainless steel elbows is as follows:
1. Before installation, it is necessary to carefully check the various standards of stainless steel elbows, whether the diameter meets the use requirements, remove the defects caused by the transportation process, and remove the dirt of stainless steel elbows.
2. During installation, the stainless steel elbow can be directly installed on the pipeline according to the connection method and installed according to the position of use. Under normal circumstances, it can be installed at any position of the pipeline, but it needs to be easy to operate and repair. Note that the flow direction of the cut-off stainless steel elbow medium should be from the bottom of the longitudinal valve disc to the top, and the stainless steel elbow can only be installed horizontally.
3. The bolts of the packing gland of the stainless steel elbow valve should be tightened evenly and should not be pressed into a crooked state to avoid bumping, hindering the movement of the valve stem or causing leakage.
4. When the ball valve, stop valve, and gate valve of the stainless steel elbow are used, they are only fully opened or fully closed. It is not allowed to adjust the flow to avoid erosion of the sealing surface and accelerated wear. There are reverse sealing devices in the gate valve and the upper threaded stop valve. Turn the handwheel to the upper position and tighten it to prevent the medium from leaking from the packing.
