WARRANTY
The Series BV2FH warranties from defects in materials and
workmanship are covered for (1) year from the date of purchase. In the
unlikely event the valve should fail, the unit can be returned to the factory
for warranty repair if the warranty period has not expired. Be sure to
include a brief description of the problem plus any relevant application
notes. Contact our customer service department for an RGA number and
to set up the return.
Bulletin V-3BV2FH
The Series 3BV2FH 3-Way Stainless Steel Flange Ball Valve is
designed to meet ANSI B16.34 flange standards and features ANSI 150#
flanged ends for easy installation. This full port valve is ideal for mixing
applications. An ISO 5211 mounting pad accepts direct mounting of
pneumatic and electric actuators. All sizes from 1/2 to 4˝ have excellent
flow rates with minimal pressure drops. The series 3BV2FH has a 4-seat
design for high cycles and increases performance from high quality 316
SS ball and stem construction.
OPERATIONS
Manual Operations-To operate the valve, turn the handle 90° (1/4 turn).
Valve in position 1: the handle is parallel (in line) with the valve pipeline.
Valve in position 2: the handle is perpendicular (crossed) with the valve
or pipeline.
Automated Operation-Valves with actuators should be checked for
stem alignment. Most applications are direct mount to the actuator,
greatly reducing any sideload or increased torque. Make sure that all
insert adapters are properly placed on the valve stem and fully engaged
in the actuator.
INSTALLATION
General Information for On-Site Installation-The valve may be fitted in
any position in the pipeline. For automated operation, W.E. Anderson
recommends that the valve and actuator be installed vertically in case of
valve leakage, although this is not necessary for proper operation of the
valve. Prior to installation, inspect valve and pipe ends to make sure they
are free from debris. Materials trapped inside the valve can cause
damage to the seats and result in leakage. The flow may be in either
direction of the valve. It is recommended to use expanded PTFE or
rubber gasket on a flat-faced flange. Flange bolts should be used and
evenly torqued using a torque wrench.
