Four Way Valve,
Warning Be sure to wait 10 minutes or more after turning off all power supplies
before disassembling work.
Procedure
Solenoid Valve
Reassembling precautions
1. Use non-oxidizing brazing
method. If nitrogen gas is not
available, braze the parts
speedily.
2. Avoid deterioration of the
gaskets due to carbonization
of oil inside the four way
valve or thermal influence.
For this purpose, wrap the
four way valve with wet
cloth. Splash water over the
cloth against becoming too
hot (keep it below 120°C).
In pulling the pipes, be
careful not to over-tighten
them with pliers. The pipes
may get deformed.
If the gas welding machine fails
to remove the four way valve,
take the steps below.
1. Disconnect the brazed pipe
sections that are readily
easy to separate and join
together later.
2. With a small copper tube
cutter, cut off the internal
pipes to easily take out the
four way valve.
Note:
Never use a hack saw. The
sawdust may come into the
circuit.
