1.0 VALVE DESCRIPTION
(Continued)
1.3.2 Disc Assembly (continued)
In an alternate arrangement (Fig. 6) the pin is supported in a bracket that mounts on two pads located
above the seat ring. The pin and hinge fit down between the pads and are captured by them. In a third
configuration (Fig. 7), the pin is supported in a bracket attached to the bonnet.
1.3.3 Seat
The seat ring is set into a machined recess in the body port which supports and retains the ring. A seal
weld is provided between the body and the ring. This weld is for sealing only and is not structural. The
seat ring is replaceable.
2.0 CARE OF VALVE PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
2.1 Receiving Inspection
Upon receipt of the valve, thoroughly inspect it for shipping damage. As a minimum, the following items should
be checked:
1. Missing or loose bolting?
2. End covers in place?
3. Is valve securely fastened to shipping skid?
4. Abrasion - damaged paint?
5. Are spare parts shipped with valve and secure?
2.2 Handling
Anchor/Darling valves are shipped strapped to wooden skids designed to be moved by forklift. It is
recommended that when being handled prior to installation, the valve be kept on its skids and a forklift truck be
used for moving. If an overhead crane is used, care must be exercised to center the load. The slings should not
lift the valve by the wooden skid structure alone, but must pass under the valve.
