Features

  • Double eccentric design causes the seal compression to release after just a few degrees of opening reducing operating torque
  • Flow-through disc with a stiff, light weight box-design for high flow velocity applications; low sensitivity to cavitation prevents turbulent flow

  • Drinking water approval for all rubber parts in contact with the water
  • Shaft in stainless steel
  • Anti blow-out shaft design with replaceable O-ring shaft seal and self lubricating bronze/PTFE radial bearings. A replaceable POM disc at the end of the stub shaft serves as thrust bearing
  • Shaft ends fully encapsulated in disc and fixed with dowels corrosion protected with O-rings and a stainless steel security plate; a safety key backs up the dowel connection
  • Gearbox in IP68 with handwheel and position indicator
  • Fasteners in stainless steel A4

Series 766 Training

Series 766 - O-Ring Replacement

Leakage, broken parts, hard operation, and other defects should be corrected by a repair crew as soon as possible
after the defect has been reported. If repairs are to be performed in the field, the repair crews should take a full complement of spare parts to the jobsite. Provisions should be made to isolate the defective valve from water pressure and relieve internal trapped pressure prior to performing any corrective maintenance. Disassembly of the valve should be accomplished in accordance with the procedure supplied in the following sections. After repairing the valve, the operating mechanism should be cycled through one complete operating cycle. With full line pressure applied to the valve in the open position, an inspection should be made to detect leakage in the areas around the seal plate, bonnet, packing gland, and body-end connections. A record should be made to indicate that the valve has been repaired and is in working 

Lcondition. Any marking that the valve is inoperable should be removed. In addition, fire department and other appropriate municipal departments should be informed
of satisfactory repair of the valve.
