Before products are returned to
Flowserve for repair or service,
Flowserve must be provided with a certificate that confirms
that the product has been decontaminated and is clean.
Flowserve will not accept deliveries if a cleaning certificate
has not been provided. Return authorization is also
required before parts are returned. Contact your local
Flowserve representative to obtain return authorization.

13.2 Disposal and Recycling

Up to 95 % of the Valtek Valdisk control valve is metal. The
remaining materials are synthetic rubber, polymers, elastomers,
polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), graphite, paint, and lubricants.
Potential hazards and their sources are under
the operators influence. The operator must
observe national and international environmental conditions for
control valve removal from the pipeline and cleaning.
Permissible limit values must be maintained to ensure suitable
protective measures; service personnel must be properly
instructed in performing the disassembly and reassembly
procedure.
The valve should be professionally disassembled and
reassembled. Metal parts should be scrapped, with the
remaining materials disposed of according the national
conditions.
Peripheral units (accessories) should be recycled according to
the relevant manufacturer 's User Instructions.
