6. Provoz
The Zurn 34-850TXL is a quarter-turn ball valve, meaning it requires a 90-degree rotation of the handle to go from fully open to fully closed, or vice versa.
- Otevření ventilu: Rotate the handle until it is parallel with the pipeline. This indicates a full port opening, allowing maximum flow.
- Zavření ventilu: Rotate the handle until it is perpendicular to the pipeline. This indicates the valve is fully closed, stopping flow.
- Throttling/Balancing: The valve can be partially opened to regulate flow. For precise balancing, specialized balancing valves may be more suitable.
7. Údržba
The Zurn 34-850TXL ball valve is designed for minimal maintenance. Regular inspection is recommended to ensure optimal performance.
- Inspekce: Periodically check for any signs of leaks around the valve body or connections. Inspect the handle for damage or looseness.
- Čištění: Keep the exterior of the valve clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the bronze finish or internal components.
- Mazání: The valve is designed with self-lubricating components and typically does not require external lubrication.
- Opravit: In case of persistent leaks or operational issues, it is recommended to replace the valve. Attempting to repair internal components may void any warranty and could compromise the valve's integrity.
8. Řešení problémů
| Problém | Možná příčina | Řešení |
|---|---|---|
| Leakage at pipe connections | Improper thread sealant, insufficient tightening, damaged threads. | Depressurize system, reapply thread sealant, retighten connections. If threads are damaged, replace the valve or pipe section. |
| Leakage from valve body/stem | Internal seal failure, manufacturing defect. | Vyměňte ventil. |
| Valve difficult to turn | Debris inside valve, worn internal components, corrosion. | Attempt to cycle the valve several times. If resistance persists, replace the valve. |
