Solution

 

The main valve doesn

’t 

close

  

 

 

 

The gate valves  are closed

 

Open the gate valves

 

The ball valves of the circuit  are 
closed 

Open the ball valves 

There    is   no   pressure    inside   
the   main chamber 

Check the pressure  coming 
into the circuit 

The diaphragm  is damaged  ( see 
the following  section 

“checking  the 

diaphragm

”) 

Replace  the diaphragm 

The  mobile  block  is  stuck  due  to 
corrosion, deposits,  cavitation 

Clean    the    main    shaft    
and    replace    all    the 
components  affected  by 
deposit  or corrosion 

The mobile block is stuck due to 
stones, pebbles,  trapped  inside the 
main body

 

Remove  the material  from 
the valve

 

The plane gasket of the obturator of 
the main valve and/or of the pilot  is 
ruined

 

Replace  the plane gaskets

 

The sealing seat is ruined

 

Replace  the sealing  seat

 

The    main    valve 
doesn

’t open 

The gate valves  are closed 

Open the gate valves 

The ball valves of the circuit  are 
closed 

Open the ball valves 

There is no pressure  on the main 
supply line 

Check the upstream 
pressure 

The pilot set point is higher than the 
incoming pressure value 

Reduce the upstream 
pressure set point by turning 
the screw anticlockwise to 
generate the opening 

The mobile block is stuck due to 
stones, pebbles,  debris  that  remain  
trapped  inside the valve 

 

 

Clean    the    main    shaft    
and    replace    all    the 
components  affected  by 
deposit  or corrosion
