3 Installation
Study the instructions carefully and pay special attention to the warnings!
The valve has ends for welding as standard.
Weld carefully/aim at stressless welding to avoid deformation on sealing areas.
Check the valve for smooth operation after welding.

Before welding the flange into the tank please note:
1. Maintain the minimum clearances "A" so that the actuator with
the internal valve parts can be removed - please see later this
section!
If there is a risk of foot damage, Alfa Laval recommends to leave
a distance of 120 mm (4.7”) below the valve (look at the specific
built-in conditions).

2. Always use welding jig (can be ordered separately at Alfa
Laval) to ensure precision of flange after welding.
Only use pulsed arc welding and remember no gap
between flange and tank plate.
Tack weld always on the opposite side (8 segments with
filler metal).
Weld root if possible without filler metal. Welding of the
final run must be done in 8 segments to avoid crack.
Remember NOT to dismount welding jig before flange is
cold.
