4. General Information 4.1. DESCRIPTION The ball valve A640 is an hygienic valve which incorporates a perforated ball inside the body. The perforated ball allows the flow of a fluid. It can be manual or automatic drive. With both drives The valve can be manual or automatic drive. A two position handle is used for the manual drive and an actuator is used for the automatic drive.
Installation 5. Installation 5.1. RECEPTION OF THE VALVE INOXPA is not liable for any deterioration of the material caused by its transport or unpac- king Check that the valve and/or actuator adjust at the requests working conditions and at the classified explosive atmosphere. When receipt the valve, check to see whether all the parts listed on the delivery slip are present:...

Perform the following checks before using the valve: - open and close the valve several times in order to ensure that it works properly and check that the butterfly smoothly connects up to the coupling. - if the valve is fitted with a pneumatic drive, apply the compressed air several times checking to make sure that the valve carry out the opening and closing action without difficulty. válvula cerrada válvula abierta INOXPA S.A.U. 10.110.30.03EN · (0) 2020/09...
8.5. Disassembly and assembly of the ball. 5.7.2. Ball Valve A640 with pneumatic drive To perform the welding works on valves with pneumatic drive should be maintain, in addition to the dimension mentioned in chapter above, a distance which allow disassembly the pneumatic drive and the control head.
To perform the air connection to the actuator: - Connect and check the air connections (G 1/8’’ thread for tubing Ø6 mm) with thread in accor- dance with double-effect or simple effect needs. - Correctly orient the actuator and disc depending whether an NO/NC is required. By turning the butterfly 90º achieves one or the other solution. Mind the quality of the compressed air according to the specifications described in chapter 9. Technical Specifications.
