NAFCO | How to Maintain Brass Ball Valve

Brass ball valves are made of brass raw materials that used to switch the flow in fluid control systems, which have obvious advantages in performance compared to traditional iron valves. Function and performance is an important factor to evaluate a product, while the maintenance is an important means to ensure a product value.
 
Manual maintenance is essential for brass valves: a good maintenance not only ensures the full performance of the valves, but also helps to extend lifetime of the valves, therefore reduces the replacement frequency and cost consumption.You may ask: "how and what maintenances can help to increase performance of brass valves?" 
 
As a professional China brass ball valve manufacturer, NAFCO researched and developed hundreds series of brass valves, with top quality valve product in China and abroad, which favored by domestic and foreign users, are pleased to share our experiences of maintaining brass valves.

1. Cleaning work
Brass valves will inevitably be contaminated with some pollutants before installing and in the process of use, because of the processing environment and the application of environmental factors. The operator shall ensure valve performance through some professional cleaning operations, especially when the higher frequency of rain, grease and so on.

2) Ancillary work
In case of long time not use, the operator shall take protective measures according to the type, structure and gland of brass valves. The main method is to use wax paper paste integrated plastic sheet to seal the valve ends to prevent dirty and pollution.

3)  Daily work
The operator may use a waterproofing device such as linoleum or raincoat to shelter the brass valves and avoid contact with the rain, when used in an open-air environment.

The above methods have been proven to be effective for brass valve maintenance. It's quite necessary to pay attention to the maintenance and protection of brass valve, so as to extend its lifetime.

NAFCO | The Difference Between Brass Gate Valve and Brass Globe Valve

The Difference Between Brass Gate Valve and Brass Globe Valve Time:2019-01-02 From: NAFCO | Brass Valves Manufacturer China Brass gate valve and Brass globe valve are the two most commonly used shut-off valves. The main differences are: 1, the sealing surface is different  When the Brass gate valve is opened and closed, the sealing surface of the valve core and the valve seat always contact and rub against each other, so the sealing surface is easy to wear, especially when the valve is close to the closed state, the pressure difference between the front and the rear of the valve core is large, and the sealing surface wear is more serious. When the valve flap of the shut-off valve is in the open state, its valve seat and the valve sealing surface are no longer in contact, so its sealing surface is less mechanically worn, but if the medium contains solid particles, it is easy to damage the sealing surface. . The sealing surface of the Brass gate valve has a certa...

NAFCO | Torque Test of Brass Ball Valves

NAFCO | Torque Test of Brass Ball Valves Time:2018-08-09 From: NAFCO | Brass Valves China Manufacturer The tests described are type tests (laboratory tests) and not quality control tests carried out during manufacture. Tests shall be carried out in the sequence of this standard on the same brass ball valve. All tests shall be carried out with cold water of (20 ± 5) °C. The brass ball valve shall not be leaking or broken during the test, failing which the ball valve is not qualitified. 1.1.1 General Hold the ball valve in a rigid fixture as shown in Figure 1. a) All tests shall be carried out with connections to the valves (whatever their end fitting configurations) which are capable of withstanding the required torque values and bending moments (according to Table 1); b) if the inlet and outlet connection are not on a common axis, the torque tests shall be repeated with the connections reversed; c) ensure that the bending and torsional moments ca...
