Operation Instructions

Proper operation of the Pneumatic Quick-Release Butterfly Valve ensures optimal performance and longevity. Below are the key operational instructions:

1. Installation

• Step 1: Ensure that the valve is the correct size and type for the system by referencing the technical specifications (see below).

• Step 2: Attach the valve to the pipeline, ensuring that the flanged ends (or wafer-style) are properly aligned and tightened.

• Step 3: Connect the pneumatic actuator to the air supply and confirm that the air pressure is within the recommended range (typically 4-8 bar).

• Step 4: Ensure that the quick-release mechanism is installed correctly, with sufficient space for easy disassembly and maintenance.

2. Operating the Valve

• Step 1: To open the valve, activate the pneumatic actuator, which will rotate the butterfly plate and allow flow through the pipeline.

• Step 2: To close the valve, reverse the pneumatic actuator’s signal. The butterfly plate will rotate to block the flow, sealing the valve shut.

• Step 3: The quick-release mechanism allows the valve to be disassembled quickly for maintenance or inspection, without the need for additional tools or complex procedures.

3. Maintenance and Troubleshooting

• Refer to the Maintenance Procedures section for regular checks and cleaning schedules.

• If the valve fails to open or close properly, inspect the pneumatic actuator and check for blockages or insufficient air pressure.

• If there is leakage around the valve seals, check the seals for wear and replace them if necessary.
