Gate Valve adjustment safety technical operation process
1) Adjustment of opening pressure ① Before the general valve leaves the factory, its opening pressure should be adjusted one by one to the setting value required by the user. If the user proposes a spring working pressure level, the factory adjustment should generally be made according to the lower limit of the pressure level. ② Before installing the Universal Valve on the protected equipment or before installation, the user must readjust it at the installation site to ensure that the set pressure value of the Universal Valve meets the requirements. ③ Within the spring working pressure level range indicated on the nameplate, the opening pressure can be adjusted by changing the spring compression amount by rotating the adjusting screw. ④ Before rotating the adjusting screw, the valve inlet pressure should be reduced to less than 90% of the opening pressure to prevent the valve disc from being driven to rotate when the adjusting screw is rotated, thereby damaging the sealing surface. ⑤ In order to ensure the accuracy of the opening pressure value, the medium conditions during adjustment, such as medium type, temperature, etc., should be as close as possible to the actual operating conditions. The opening pressure often changes when the type of medium changes, especially when the accumulation state of the medium is different (for example, from liquid phase to gas phase). As the operating temperature increases, the cracking pressure generally decreases. Therefore, when adjusting at normal temperature and using it at high temperature, the set pressure value at normal temperature should be slightly higher than the required opening pressure value. How high it is is related to the valve structure and material selection, and should be based on the manufacturer's instructions. ⑥Conventional general-purpose valves are used when additional back pressure is fixed. When the opening pressure is adjusted after inspection (the back pressure is atmospheric pressure at this time), the setting value should be the required opening pressure value minus the additional back pressure value. (2) Adjustment of discharge pressure and return pressure ① To adjust the valve discharge pressure and reseating pressure, an action test must be carried out with the valve reaching the full opening height. Therefore, it can only be carried out on a large-capacity test device or after the Universal Valve is installed on the protected equipment. The adjustment method varies depending on the valve structure. ② For the structure with recoil disk and Gate Valve, the Gate Valve is used for adjustment. Unscrew the fixing screw of the adjusting ring and insert a thin iron rod or other tool from the exposed screw hole to move the gear teeth on the adjusting ring to make the adjusting ring rotate left and right. When the adjusting ring is rotated counterclockwise to the left, its position increases, and both the discharge pressure and the return pressure will be reduced. On the contrary, when the adjusting ring is rotated clockwise to the right, its position decreases, and both the discharge pressure and the return pressure will increase. Each time you adjust, the adjustment: circle rotation should not be too large). After each adjustment, the fixing screw should be tightened so that its end is located in the groove between the two teeth of the adjusting ring, which can prevent the adjusting ring from rotating and produce no radial pressure on the adjusting ring. For safety reasons, before turning the adjustment ring, the inlet pressure of the Universal Valve should be appropriately reduced to prevent the valve from suddenly opening during adjustment and causing an accident. ③ For structures with upper and lower adjustment rings, the adjustment is more complicated. The Gate Valve is used to change the size of the channel between the valve disc and the adjusting ring, thereby changing the degree of pressure accumulation in the chamber between the valve disc and the adjusting ring when the valve is initially opened. When the Gate Valve is raised, the degree of pressure accumulation increases, thereby reducing the proportional opening stage of the valve and reaching sudden rapid opening faster. Therefore, raising the Gate Valve can reduce the discharge pressure. It should be noted that the Gate Valve cannot be raised too close to the valve disc. In that case, leakage at the sealing surface may cause the valve to suddenly open prematurely, but because the medium pressure is not enough to keep the valve disc in the open position at this time, the valve disc will close again immediately, so the valve will jump. (3) Lead seal After the adjustment of the Universal Valve is completed, it should be sealed to prevent the adjusted status from being changed at will. When renovating a Universal Valve, note the position of the adjusting screw and adjusting ring before disassembling the valve to facilitate adjustment after the reconditioning. After readjustment, it should be sealed again.

Common Gate Valve failures and causes
Gate Valve, most Gate Valve installed on the system will not fail. If problems occur, they are generally caused by a lack of engineering or maintenance experience. With the widespread use of this type of valve, people have summarized several causes and solutions for user reference. 1. The Gate Valve is leaking. The reasons for the failure are the following three points. The user needs to make adjustments accordingly: (1) The contact surface between the valve core and the valve seat is not tight; (2) There is dirt on the contact surface between the valve core and the valve seat; (3) The valve stem is deflected. 2. The Gate Valve opens when the pressure is not specified. The solution is as follows: (1) The spring adjustment pressure of the Universal Valve is insufficient, the spring fails or the elastic force is insufficient. The Gate Valve should be readjusted or replaced; (2) The Universal Valve weight moves forward. The weight should be moved to the original constant pressure position and tightened with the limit screw. 3. The Gate Valve does not open when it reaches the specified pressure. The solution is as follows: (1) If the valve core and valve seat are stuck, it can be ruled out by manual exhaust test; (2) The spring adjustment pressure of the Universal Valve is too large and should be readjusted; (3) When the weight of the Universal Valve moves backward, the weight should be moved to the original constant pressure position and tightened with the limit screw.

Gate Valve discharge and seat back pressure adjustment
① To adjust the valve discharge pressure and reseating pressure, an action test must be carried out with the valve reaching the full opening height. Therefore, it can only be carried out on a large-capacity test device or after the Gate Valve is installed on the protected equipment. The adjustment method varies depending on the valve structure. ②For the structure with recoil plate and valve seat adjustment ring, the valve seat adjustment ring is used for adjustment.

When the adjusting ring is rotated counterclockwise to the left, its position increases, and both the discharge pressure and the return pressure will be reduced. On the contrary, when the adjusting ring is rotated clockwise to the right, its position decreases, and both the discharge pressure and the return pressure will increase. Every time you adjust, adjust: the rotation range of the circle should not be too large (usually a few teeth can be turned). After each adjustment, the fixing screw should be tightened so that its end is located in the groove between the two teeth of the adjusting ring, which can prevent the adjusting ring from rotating and produce no radial pressure on the adjusting ring. For safety reasons, before turning the adjustment ring, the Gate Valve inlet pressure should be appropriately reduced (generally should be lower than 90% of the opening pressure) to prevent the valve from suddenly opening during adjustment and causing an accident. ③ For structures with upper and lower adjustment rings (one adjustment ring each on the guide sleeve and valve seat), the adjustment is more complicated. The valve seat adjusting ring is used to change the size of the channel between the valve disc and the adjusting ring, thereby changing the degree of pressure accumulation in the chamber between the valve disc and the adjusting ring when the valve is initially opened. When the valve seat adjustment ring is raised, the degree of pressure accumulation increases, thereby reducing the proportional opening stage of the valve and reaching sudden rapid opening faster. Therefore, raising the valve seat adjustment ring can reduce the discharge pressure. It should be noted that the valve seat adjustment ring cannot be raised too close to the valve disc. In that case, leakage at the sealing surface may cause the valve to suddenly open prematurely, but because the medium pressure is not enough to keep the valve disc in the open position at this time, the valve disc will close again immediately, so the valve will jump. Valve seat adjustment: The "ring" is mainly used to reduce the proportion of the valve, the opening stage and adjust the discharge pressure. It also affects the return pressure. The upper adjustment ring is used to change the deflection angle of the flowing medium after being reflected on the underside of the valve disc, thereby changing the magnitude of the fluid force, thereby adjusting the seat back pressure. When the upper adjusting ring is raised, the turning angle decreases, and the fluid force decreases accordingly, thereby increasing the seat return pressure. On the contrary, when the upper adjusting ring is lowered, the reseating pressure decreases. Of course, while the upper adjusting ring changes the seat return pressure, it also affects the discharge pressure. That is, raising the upper adjusting ring causes the discharge pressure to increase, and lowering the upper adjusting ring causes the discharge pressure to decrease, but its impact is not as great as that of the back seat. The seat pressure is so obvious.

How is automated control achieved for Plug Valve?
A Universal Valve is a valve device that uses electrical signals to open, regulate, or control the flow of media. In industrial production processes, automated control of Plug Valve helps achieve fluid control and regulation, enabling automated management of the production process. The following explains how automated control of Plug Valve is achieved. First, automated control of Plug Valve relies on a complete control system. This system typically includes sensors, a controller, actuators, and a monitoring system. Sensors collect parameters such as flow rate, pressure, and temperature, and transmit this data to the controller. The controller performs logical operations and generates control commands based on the parameters collected by the sensors; the actuator executes the commands issued by the controller, controlling the opening and closing of the Universal Valve. The monitoring system monitors the operating status of the control system in real time and provides data logging and alarm functions. Second, automated control of Plug Valve can be achieved through different control modes. Common control modes include PID control, ON/OFF control, and stepper control. PID control is a method that uses proportional, integral, and derivative control parameters to achieve precise control of the Universal Valve. ON/OFF control is a simple control method that controls the on/off state of a Universal Valve by setting a threshold. Step control, on the other hand, adjusts the opening degree of the Universal Valve through specific step values, thereby regulating the flow rate of the medium. Furthermore, to achieve automated control of Plug Valve, appropriate control strategies and parameter settings are required. The choice of control strategy should be determined based on specific control requirements and system characteristics; different control strategies will affect the system's response speed, stability, and accuracy. Parameter settings need to be determined based on actual process requirements and medium characteristics. Reasonable parameter settings can control the stability and performance of the system. In addition, the automated control of Plug Valve must also consider safety and reliability. During the design and installation of the control system, relevant standards and specifications must be followed to ensure the stability and safety of the control system. At the same time, regular inspection and maintenance of the control system are necessary to ensure its reliability and long-term stable operation. In summary, automated control of Plug Valve can help achieve intelligent management of industrial production processes, improving production efficiency and product quality. By selecting appropriate control systems, control modes, and parameter settings, and paying attention to safety and reliability, the control and automated operation of Plug Valve can be achieved, bringing more convenience and benefits to industrial production.

What are the various structural functions of the Universal Valve?
1. Lever hammer type Universal Valve: Lever hammer type Universal Valve. The force of the weight is amplified by the lever and then loaded on the Gate Valve. The magnitude of the load remains unchanged during the opening and closing process of the valve, so the force transmitted from the valve stem is basically unchanged. Its disadvantage is that it is sensitive to vibration and has poor seat return performance. The Universal Valve with this structure can only be used on fixed equipment. The mass of the weight should generally not exceed 60KG to avoid difficulty in operation. The cast iron weight type Universal Valve is suitable for nominal pressure PN<=1.6MPa, medium temperature T<=200 degrees Celsius; the carbon steel weight type Universal Valve is suitable for nominal pressure PN<=4.0MPa, medium temperature t<=450 degrees Celsius.The hammer type Universal Valve is mainly used for water, steam and other media. 2. Micro-lift Universal Valve: A Universal Valve whose opening height is 1/40-1/20 of the diameter of the valve seat is a micro-lift Universal Valve. Micro-activated Universal Valve are further divided into micro-activated Universal Valve without adjusting rings and micro-activated Universal Valve with narrow adjusting rings, micro-activated spring Universal Valve without adjusting rings, and micro-activated spring Universal Valve with adjusting rings. valve. The spring Universal Valve with an adjustment ring can use the adjustment chart to adjust the discharge force, that is, the opening and closing pressure difference.3. Full-lift Universal Valve: A Universal Valve whose opening height is 1/4 to 1/3 of the diameter of the valve seat is a full-lift Universal Valve. The full-open Universal Valve is equipped with a recoil plate at the Gate Valve of the Universal Valve. With the help of the expansion impulse of the gas medium, the Gate Valve is opened to a sufficient height to meet the displacement requirements. Universal Valve with this structure are used more often and have higher sensitivity.

Universal Valve operates normally
The Universal Valve is pressed on the valve seat by the spring force of the valve core. The valve is closed and the valve core top is under the steam. During normal operation, the clamping force under the spring is greater than the upward thrust of the steam, and the valve closes. When the steam pressure reaches the Gate Valve, the steam force is greater than the valve, spool, and rotor pump relief valve exhaust spring force. You can adjust the pressure in the relief valve by changing the pressure of the spring by adjusting the valve stem at the top of the screw. (1) The Universal Valve should be vertical, installed and installed at the steam interface position of the container or pipeline. (2) There should be no resistance at the outlet of the relief valve to avoid back pressure. If it is installed on a discharge line whose diameter is larger than the outlet path of the Gate Valve, attention should be paid to the Gate Valve exclusion of antifreeze and containers containing flammable or toxic, highly toxic media Discharge piping should be handled through outdoor safe or appropriate facilities. Drainage pipes shall not be fitted with any valves. (3) There should be no valve between the overflow valve and the pressure equipment, holding a flammable, explosive, toxic or viscous medium in a container, so that the valve can be easily replaced, cleaned and loaded, and its structure and size should not hinder the operation of the Gate Valve. normal operation. Stop valves must be fully open and sealed during normal operation. (4) When there are gas and liquid two-phase materials in the container, the Gate Valve should be installed in the gas phase part. (5) When the Gate Valve is used to discharge flammable liquids, the outlet of the Gate Valve should be connected to the accident storage tank. When the discharged material of the Gate Valve is high-temperature combustibles, the receiving container should have corresponding protective facilities. (6) Generally, Gate Valve can be vented on-site. The vent port of the Gate Valve should be more than 1 meter (m) higher than the operator and should not face open flames, spark-emitting locations and high-temperature equipment within 15 meters (m). The vent holes of Gate Valve of indoor equipment and containers should be led out of the roof, and the Gate Valve should be at least 2 meters (m) above the roof. (7) When there is a isolation valve at the inlet of the Gate Valve, the isolation valve should be in a normally open state, and the Gate Valve should be sealed to avoid errors.

Faults encountered during operation of Gate Valve
1. Gate Valve leakage For equipment operating under pressure, leakage in excess of allowable levels occurs between the Gate Valve and the sealing valve seat. Cause: Dirt between the valve and valve seat sealing surfaces. When using a poppet valve, put the dirt and damage the sealing surface when the wrench is opened. Repair according to grinding or turning grinding method after a certain degree of damage; bend, tilt or tilt stem of lever and fulcrum, spool and valve position. The Gate Valve needs to be reinstalled or replaced because the spring elasticity has decreased or lost elasticity. Gate Valve return spring, and then take measures, such as adjusting the opening pressure. 2. Gate Valve jumps or vibrates frequently Mainly because spring is too big. An adjustment ring should be used instead to adjust the spring with appropriate stiffness. The return pressure of the Gate Valve is too high. The position of the adjusting ring should be adjusted; the exhaust pipe resistance is too great and the Gate Valve causes excessive exhaust back pressure. Low discharge pipe resistance. Adjusting the valve exhaust pressure and return pressure must reach the valve opening height for testing, therefore, it may only be performed on large-capacity testing equipment or when the relief valve is installed on protected equipment. Adjustment methods vary. The Gate Valve retainer and valve seat adjustment ring of the Universal Valve structure are adjusted to the valve seat ring. To loosen the adjustment ring screw, use a thin wand-like tool from the exposed screw. You can drag the adjustment ring gear teeth to turn the adjustment ring left or right. When the adjustment ring is rotated counterclockwise to the left, its elevated position will reduce pressure and return pressure. On the contrary, when the adjustment ring is rotated clockwise to the right, the lower exhaust pressure and back pressure must be increased. For each adjustment, the rotation range should not be too large (usually several teeth are rotated). After that, the adjustment screw should be tightened every time, so that the two teeth between the adjustment ring grooves can prevent the adjustment from ending the ring rotation without adjusting the radial pressure of the ring.

Use the resulting suction effect to reduce the pressure above the Universal Valve
Gate Valve, when the pressure in the protected system rises, an additional force is generated on the sensing element, causing the element to move and open a gap in the Gate Valve channel, and the medium is discharged through the gap. The discharge capacity of the Gate Valve and the service life of its parts , related to the dynamic stability of the Gate Valve operation. The vibration of the Universal Valve will reduce the channel cross-sectional area and discharge capacity of the Gate Valve, and the collision of the Universal Valve with the valve seat and the opening height limiter will damage the sealing surface and other parts of the Gate Valve. , the two-stage full-open Gate Valve is most likely to produce Universal Valve oscillation. The dynamic instability of the Gate Valve operation is mainly caused by the following reasons: the discharge capacity of the Gate Valve exceeds the flow rate of the medium entering the Gate Valve, the spring stiffness is too large, and when the valve is opened, When large back pressure and external dynamic interference occur in the upper chamber of the Universal Valve. 1. Impact on emission capacityWhen the following conditions occur, the discharge capacity of the Gate Valve may exceed the flow rate of the medium entering the valve:① When the passage cross-sectional area of the selected Gate Valve exceeds the cross-sectional area required for calculation.② When the Gate Valve is installed on a system with changes in emergency displacement.③When the cross-sectional area of the inlet pipe is not enough, etc.2. Effect of spring stiffnessExcessive spring stiffness can also be the cause of Universal Valve oscillation. Full-open Gate Valve can achieve full-open discharge depending on the medium recoil force, but when the spring stiffness is too large, this force cannot be used by the spring force to achieve the set opening. height, so the Gate Valve cannot achieve full discharge. This will cause the Gate Valve to return to its seat as soon as it is opened, causing oscillation. If the stiffness is small, the Gate Valve will return to its seat at a very low pressure. In order to eliminate this phenomenon, it should be installed Provide a spring that meets the design, or test several actual groups of springs during design, and determine the most suitable spring through testing.3. Impact of system back pressureSimilar to the impact caused by excessive spring stiffness, the back pressure generated in the body cavity above the Universal Valve when the Gate Valve is opened may also cause the Universal Valve to oscillate. In order to avoid the generation of large back pressure, for open Gate Valve, the openings in the valve body are used Connect the body cavity above the Universal Valve to the atmosphere. For closed Gate Valve, connect the body cavity above the Universal Valve to the valve body outlet or outlet branch, and use the suction effect generated to reduce the pressure above the Universal Valve.

Universal Valve adjustment technical operation process
(1) Adjustment of opening pressure ① Before the Gate Valve leaves the factory, its opening pressure should be adjusted one by one to the setting value required by the user. If the user proposes a spring working pressure level, the factory adjustment should generally be made according to the lower limit of the pressure level. ② Before installing the Gate Valve on the protected equipment or before installation, the user must readjust it at the installation site to ensure that the set pressure value of the Gate Valve meets the requirements. ③ Within the spring working pressure level range indicated on the nameplate, the opening pressure can be adjusted by changing the spring compression amount by rotating the adjusting screw. ④ Before rotating the adjusting screw, the valve inlet pressure should be reduced to less than 90% of the opening pressure to prevent the valve disc from being driven to rotate when the adjusting screw is rotated, thereby damaging the sealing surface. ⑤ In order to ensure the accuracy of the opening pressure value, the medium conditions during adjustment, such as medium type, temperature, etc., should be as close as possible to the actual operating conditions. The opening pressure often changes when the type of medium changes, especially when the accumulation state of the medium is different (for example, from liquid phase to gas phase). As the operating temperature increases, the cracking pressure generally decreases. Therefore, when adjusting at normal temperature and using it at high temperature, the set pressure value at normal temperature should be slightly higher than the required opening pressure value. How high it is is related to the valve structure and material selection, and should be based on the manufacturer's instructions. ⑥Conventional Gate Valve are used when additional back pressure is fixed. When the opening pressure is adjusted after inspection (the back pressure is atmospheric pressure at this time), the setting value should be the required opening pressure value minus the additional back pressure value. Universal Valve adjustment safety technical operation process (2) Adjustment of discharge pressure and return pressure ① To adjust the valve discharge pressure and reseating pressure, an action test must be carried out with the valve reaching the full opening height. Therefore, it can only be carried out on a large-capacity test device or after the Gate Valve is installed on the protected equipment. The adjustment method varies depending on the valve structure. ②For the structure with recoil plate and valve seat adjustment ring, the valve seat adjustment ring is used for adjustment. Unscrew the fixing screw of the adjusting ring and insert a thin iron rod or other tool from the exposed screw hole to move the gear teeth on the adjusting ring to make the adjusting ring rotate left and right. When the adjusting ring is rotated counterclockwise to the left, its position increases, and both the discharge pressure and the return pressure will be reduced. On the contrary, when the adjusting ring is rotated clockwise to the right, its position decreases, and both the discharge pressure and the return pressure will increase. Every time you adjust, adjust: the range of rotation of the circle should not be too large (usually a few teeth can be turned). After each adjustment, the fixing screw should be tightened so that its end is located in the groove between the two teeth of the adjusting ring, which can prevent the adjusting ring from rotating and produce no radial pressure on the adjusting ring. For safety reasons, before turning the adjustment ring, the Gate Valve inlet pressure should be appropriately reduced (generally should be lower than 90% of the opening pressure) to prevent the valve from suddenly opening during adjustment and causing an accident. ③ For structures with upper and lower adjustment rings (one adjustment ring each on the guide sleeve and valve seat), the adjustment is more complicated. The valve seat adjusting ring is used to change the size of the channel between the valve disc and the adjusting ring, thereby changing the degree of pressure accumulation in the chamber between the valve disc and the adjusting ring when the valve is initially opened. When the valve seat adjustment ring is raised, the degree of pressure accumulation increases, thereby reducing the proportional opening stage of the valve and reaching sudden rapid opening faster. Therefore, raising the valve seat adjustment ring can reduce the discharge pressure. It should be noted that the valve seat adjustment ring cannot be raised too close to the valve disc. In that case, leakage at the sealing surface may cause the valve to suddenly open prematurely, but because the medium pressure is not enough to keep the valve disc in the open position at this time, the valve disc will close again immediately, so the valve will jump. Valve seat adjustment: The "ring" is mainly used to reduce the proportion of the valve, the opening stage and adjust the discharge pressure. It also affects the return pressure. (3) Lead seal After the adjustment of the Gate Valve is completed, it should be sealed to prevent arbitrary changes in the adjusted condition. When renovating a Gate Valve, note the position of the adjusting screw and adjusting ring before disassembling the valve to facilitate adjustment after the reconditioning. After readjustment, it should be sealed again.
