As a key component in fluid control systems, the correct installation of rotary valves is crucial for ensuring stable system operation and extending equipment lifespan. The following are several key points to note when installing rotary valves:

Preparation in advance: Before installation, it is necessary to carefully read the instructions and installation drawings of the rotary valve, understand the model, specifications, materials, and applicable media of the valve, and ensure that it matches the system design. At the same time, check whether the valve and its accessories are intact, and remove any impurities and dirt that may have been generated during transportation.

Location selection: Reasonably select the installation location to ensure that the rotary valve can be easily operated and maintained, and there is sufficient space around for the valve to fully open and close. At the same time, avoid installing valves in environments that are susceptible to vibration, impact, or drastic temperature changes.

Pipeline cleaning: Before installing the rotary valve, the connecting pipeline must be thoroughly cleaned to remove impurities such as welding slag and rust, in order to avoid damaging the valve sealing surface or affecting valve performance.

Flange connection: If flange connection is used, it should be ensured that the flange surface is flat and undamaged, and the flange bolts are tightened evenly to avoid leakage caused by uneven stress. At the same time, use appropriate sealing gaskets to ensure their material is compatible with the medium.

Debugging and Inspection: After installation, necessary debugging and inspection work should be carried out, including checking the flexibility of valve opening and closing, sealing performance, and accuracy of indication markings. If necessary, conduct pressure tests to ensure that the valve operates safely and reliably under rated conditions.

In short, the installation of rotary valves requires meticulous attention to detail, from early preparation to debugging and inspection, every step should not be taken lightly. Only by ensuring correct installation can the performance advantages of rotary valves be fully utilized, providing strong guarantees for the efficient operation of fluid control systems.
