end) and 3L/T-2100F-F/G (flanged end) Series Marwin

Caution
1. Valve pressure ratings are based on many variables,
including valve series and size, as well as body, seat
and bolt material. Verify that application does not
exceed the pressure or temperature rating on the
nameplate.
2. Always depressurize the line with the valve in the
OPEN position before disassembly. Cycle valve in
depressurized line before loosening bolts.
3. Wear protective equipment and take appropriate
precautions to safeguard against injury caused by
the discharge of trapped fluids.
4. Use only Marwin recommended spare parts for
maintenance.
5. To ensure safety and maintain warranty, never
modify valve in any way without prior approval from
Marwin.
Storage
Lubricant is used on all internal surfaces. This may be
removed with a solvent if found objectionable. All valves
are adequately packed in a strong cardboard case in
such a way as to avoid any possible damage during
transport and storage.
If ball valves are not destined for immediate use, the fol-
lowing precautions should be taken:
1. If possible, leave the ball valves in their packing
cases during the period of storage.
2. Ball valves must remain in open position during this time.
3. In order to prevent damage, protective plastic covers
on valve ends should not be removed until immedi-
ately prior to installation.
4. It is advisable to store the valves in dry conditions.
Ball valves should be protected to safeguard against
humidity, moisture, dust, dirt sand, mud, salt spray
and seawater.
5. Valves with actuators shall be stored in dry
conditions.
6. Valves to be stored for a long period of time should
be checked by the quality control personnel every
six months; every three months when valves are
automated.
