Pressure retaining valve type 586 PVC-U Unions with solvent cement sockets ASTM Without manometer

Product catalog summary

Specifications and Intended Use:
Butterfly valves type 567/578 are designed for controlling media flow within specified pressure and temperature limits. They are unsuitable for media with solid particles and should avoid cavitation. Type 567 serves as an intermediate valve, while type 578 can function as both intermediate and end-of-line valve. The operational lifespan is up to 25 years.

Installation Procedures:
Ensure proper spacing and alignment of the pipeline for full disc opening. Use appropriate flange screws, tightening them with equal torque. For type 578 as an end-of-line valve, a counter flange adaptor is required. Conduct a function test post-installation.

Tightening Torque:
Tables specify maximum tightening torque for various valve sizes and materials. For instance, DN 50 requires 8xM16 screws with a maximum torque of 60 Nm.

Safety and Warning Instructions:
Adhere to safety guidelines to prevent injuries or material damage. Ensure the product is used correctly and installed by trained personnel. Regular safety training for staff is recommended.

Maintenance:
Butterfly valves require minimal maintenance but should be inspected after 5000 cycles for leaks and tightened flanged connectors. Periodic operation tests are advised.

Troubleshooting:
Common issues include improper flange fitting, difficulty in operation, and leaks. Solutions involve adjusting the disc, beveling SFA/BFA, and replacing damaged gaskets.

Transport and Storage:
Store products in original packaging, shielded from dust, dirt, and UV radiation. Inspect for transport damage before installation.

Disassembly and Assembly:
Follow detailed steps for disassembling and assembling butterfly valves, ensuring correct alignment and using original parts for replacements.

Specifications and Procedures:
Flange screws should be tightened in a criss-cross pattern. Use SFA/BFA with a fluted sealing face for even sealing.

Selection of Lubricants:
Avoid mineral oil or Vaseline-based lubricants to prevent material damage. Use silicone or polyol-based grease for gaskets.

Spare Parts:
Available through local GF sales or online. Technical data may change and do not guarantee characteristics or durability.

EC Declaration of Conformity:
Butterfly Valves Type 567/578 comply with EC Directive 2014/68/EU for pressure equipment. CE marking applies to valves larger than DN25.

Safety and Responsibility:
Ensure proper use and regular inspection of the piping system. Only trained personnel should handle installation and maintenance.

Installation and Maintenance:
Type 567 is for intermediate installation; Type 578 can be used for both intermediate and end installation. Follow torque specifications as per ISO/ANSI standards. Conduct functional tests before and after installation.

Transport and Storage:
Transport and store in original packaging, protected from environmental factors. Inspect for transport damage before installation.

Demounting and Mounting:
Follow specific steps for demounting and mounting as outlined in the manual. Ensure correct alignment and positioning during installation.

Safety Warnings:
Follow all safety warnings to prevent injury or damage. Ensure pressure is fully released before valve removal.

Additional Information:
Refer to Georg Fischer Planning Fundamentals for detailed guidelines. Contact GF Piping Systems for further assistance.

Specifications and Warnings:
Operating torque specifications can be multiplied by four depending on conditions. Avoid using tools to increase torque as it may damage the valve. Use designated tools only, and check for wear or damage if torque increases.

Disassembly Risks:
Disassembling the valve can lead to uncontrolled fluid release, posing injury risks. Ensure pressure is fully released and the pipe is purged before disassembly, especially with hazardous fluids. Implement proper fluid collection and splash prevention measures.

Sealing Joints:
Store sealing joints in original packaging in a cool, dry, and dark place. Inspect for aging damage before installation, and isolate defective joints.

Lever Assembly and Disassembly:
Instructions for assembling and disassembling the lever include correct positioning and securing of components.

Maintenance:
Butterfly valves generally require no maintenance under normal operation but should be checked after 5000 cycles. Regular checks for fluid leaks and periodic lubrication of sleeves are recommended.

Troubleshooting:
Solutions for common issues include adjusting valve positioning, addressing high actuation torque, and fixing leaks. Replace damaged joints and ensure proper bolt tightening.

Lubricant Selection:
Only silicone or polyol-based lubricants should be used, as mineral oil or petroleum jelly can damage valve materials.

Spare Parts and Compliance:
Spare parts can be ordered from Georg Fischer dealers. The document includes a CE conformity declaration, stating compliance with the European Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU.

Georg Fischer Piping Systems Ltd. CH-8201 Schaffhausen (Switzerland) Phone +41 52 631 11 11/ [email protected] / www.gfps.com © Georg Fischer Piping Systems Ltd Observe instruction manual The instruction manual is part of the product and an important element within the safety concept. • Read and observe instruction manual. • Always keep instruction manual available close to the product. • Pass on instruction manual to all subsequent users of the product. After being installed into a piping system, butterfly valves type 567 / 578 are exclusively meant to block or convey media within the approved pressure and temperature limits, and to regulate the flow. The maximum time of operation is 25 years. The valve is intended to be used within the chemical stability of the entire valve and all its components. Butterfly valves are not recommended for media with solid matters. Cavitation has to be avoided during normal operation. In case of degreasing or jamming media, butterfly valves can only be used after consulting a GF Piping Systems representative. • Use type 567 only as intermediate butterfly valve. • Use type 578 as intermediate or end-of-line butterfly valve. See «Georg Fischer’s planning criteria» for approved pressure areas of all approved temperatures for all housing materials. These documents also contain the „list of chemical resistance" for the different valve materials. 2. Regarding this document This document contains all necessary information for the installation, operation and service of the product. • Georg Fischer planning fundamentals • Instruction manual for expanding the BFV 567 / 578 for further functions: Inappropriate lubricants! Material damage due to inappropriate lubricants that corrode the materials that butterfly valves and/or gaskets are made of. ► Make sure that no lubricants are used that are based on mineral oil or Vaseline (petrolatum). ► Observe special manufacturer's notice for paint-compatible butterfly valves. ► Lubricate all gaskets with grease based on silicone or polyol. Other lubricants are not permissible. Spare parts are available at your local GF sales company or on the Internet at www.gfps.com. The technical data are not binding.
