3. PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION MARKING The gate valve marking meets the following standards: EN 19 (Industrial valves. Marking metal fittings), Marking of metallic valves), EN 1074-1 (Valves for water supply. Fitness for purpose requirements and appropriate verification tests. Part 1: General requirements). The gate valve bodies feature markings on the front and back walls of the body chamber.
The location on the valve specified in the documentation features the nameplate which contains the following data: Manufacturer's company and country of origin Manufacturer's company logo Polish construction mark (for the full range of diameter values) Alphanumerical reference designation for the bolt hole pattern drilling on the flange to be connected to the piping (PN) CE marking Maximum permitted pressure (PS)
Protect the rubber parts from compression by keeping the gate valve wedge closure halfway open. Secure the products against shifting during shipping and handling. Heavy gate valves (DN350 and larger) shall be handled with dedicated eye bolts; the gate valves from DN65 to DN300 shall be handled on slings (see the example diagram below) and secured from rotating.
If all the actions above have been completed with a good result, visually inspect the corrosion protection. If the paint coat is damaged, rebuild it with the paint kits available from JAFAR. Replacing the seal in the cover: Fully open the valve (until you clearly sense that the wedge closure (6) resists further movement; this will seal the spindle under the flange (5)).
