Safe Product Selection
When selecting a product, the total system design must
be considered to ensure safe, trouble-free performance.
Function, material compatibility, adequate ratings,
proper installation, operation, and maintenance are the
responsibilities of the system designer and user.

Packing adjustment may be required during the service
life of the valve.

Valves that have not been cycled for a period of time
may have a higher initial actuation torque.
