DIAPHRAGM CONTROL VALVE

INTRODUCTION

The Diaphragm Valve is essentially a simple pinch clamp, closed by pressing a flexible diaphragm against transverse weir, when fully closed, the diaphragm seats against the weir providing a leak tight closure. The diaphragm valves are recommended for handling sticky and viscous fluids, slurries and highly corrosive and hazardous substances and other hard to handle mediums or where tight closure is prime factor. It is the most ideal valve to handle fluids that require high purity and should remain free from contamination. The Diaphragm Valve is a simple pinch type valve and of low pressure type because of large area of diaphragm and is extensively used for both
On/Off and throttling services and finds its application in Waste & Water Treatment Plants, Filtration Plants, Chlorination Plants etc.

INSTALLATION

The valve should be installed preferably in a straight run of the pipe, a few diameters away from the bends. The preferred position is with actuator vertically above or below the valve body. It may also be installed in a horizontal or angled position provided the diaphragm actuator is supported. Necessary clearance should be provided above the actuator to permit removal for servicing or for inspection of the valve internals. The supply pressure to the actuator be either 20 psig or 35 psig or as per rating indicated on the name plate. For control applications, positioner mounted are piped and adjusted at the factory.

 
 

FINAL CHECK

After the valve has been installed, check the operations for full stroke travel as indicated on the name plate. Check for air leaks in air line connection. Open and close the valve two or three times to ensure proper operation. Before commissioning the process flow, it would be advisable to use conical filter or other temporary devices to avoid damage to the rubber lining or body diaphragm as the fluid is likely to carry foreign solid material during testing or commissioning of the plant. This care is particularly important with neoprene or other soft elastomer lining. Special care has to be exercised with glass lining construction. It is generally not desirable to use excessive air pressure to the actuator than specified as it would reduce the life of the body diaphragm and also cause undue forces on the actuator diaphragm. Valves having manual hand wheels should be preferably operated with air pressure, particularly during the start of the plant when any foreign material is
likely to damage the internals.

 
 
  All type of regulators generally fit into one of the following two basic categories.
  1) Direct Operated
  2) Pilot Operated
  The specific considerations peculiar to your control needs is to be carefully studied and understood to determine which method of control is the better choice. Regulators when compared to control Valve / Instrument package have their advantages and limitations.   Table No.2 lists selected characteristic of both.
 
The Company’s policy is one of continuous product improvement and the right is reserved to modify the specifications contained herein without notice.
