There’s a problem with installing the control valve this way

2019-08-08View Original

Thread Content

When installing control valves in this way, aside from the considerations of maintenance and aesthetics, and the fact that there are no shut-off valves at the inlet and outlet, are there any other issues? Are there any regulations regarding this? Waiting for an answer online

This installation method isn’t good, I’ve seen discussions on forums about this issue before

It should be installed horizontally, I’ve never seen it installed vertically

The specification states that it should be installed horizontally as much as possible; however, in special cases where horizontal installation is not feasible, it can be installed vertically, but a support must be used

Move it to a higher position; it’s advisable to consider maintenance, as well as installing bypasses and valves at the front and back

I said the same thing to the people on site before, and then the process engineer told me it was fine – we could just stop the tank during maintenance and then repair the valve. I’m almost fainting; just one technician like this... Ugh

Install it as horizontally as possible; it is best to have valves at the front and back for easy maintenance and isolation.

It doesn’t matter whether it’s horizontal or vertical; there are no strict requirements. If it’s installed vertically without a support, the motor of the reactor being so close causes excessive vibration. What can be done if the process engineer doesn’t accept the bypass option?

The SH specifications require that it be installed vertically and upright in horizontal pipes; horizontal or inclined installation is only permitted in special cases. Refers to a horizontal pipeline (with the control valve horizontal or inclined). It must be installed in this way; ask the control valve manufacturer whether it is possible.

Bro, if both the valves and the pipes are horizontal, how do I install them? Could you draw a diagram and send it to me? I’ve never seen this before
