Brlad.
READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING AND USING THE PRODUCT!
For any further information it is recommended to contact the manufacturer.
It is the user's responsibility to know all the information presented in this manual and the specific application
for which it was purchased the valve.
It is also the responsibility of the user to use for installation, operation and maintenance only qualified and

1.1 Application
According to API Spec. 6D, gate valves RSP-CB type, fall into the category of valves for pipe-lines used in
water, oil and gas industry.
The products fall into the category of accessories for pressure regulation and essential requirements related
to ensuring the safety of users of pressure equipment covered by EC PED Directive 97 / 23.
1.2 Technical characteristic
Valves can be classified by:
Body construction:
- monoblock type (fully welded body)
- split body;
Gate and stem construction:
- expanding-gate / rising-stem gate valve;
- slab-gate / trough-conduit rising-stem gate valve;
- wedge -fixed.
Installation:
- Over ground;
-underground
End connection:
- flanged ends according to ASME B16.5 or EN 1092;
- Wafer;
- Welding ends;
- threaded ends.
Nominal diameter DN or NPS: 50 - 1000 or 2-50;
Nominal pressure PN or class: 6; 10; 16; 25; 40; 63; 100; 150 ; 600 or ANSI 150, ANSI 300; ANSI 600; ANSI 900
Standard temperature ranges: -290C ... +900C other at request.
Face to face dimensions according to API 6D or ASME B16.10.
Standard working environment: neutral or potential corrosive gases and liquids.
Special orders: fluids with suspensions; the nature of suspensions and the size of particles have to be
mentioned by the customer.
Sealing area
The primary sealing is assured by the PTFE seat. After the primary gasket is wear the sealing is provided by
the metal to metal contact.
Basically the force that assures the pressing of the gate is provided by the stem and by the pressure that act
against the gate over the seat.
1.3 Features
STEM SEAL DESIGN
The stem seal offers a tight seal with little or no
maintenance over long periods of time.
Gland stem
WEDGE GATE VALVES The major difference between a flexible wedge valve and a parallel slide valve is the
high wedging force acting on the seats, which adds to the primary fluid pressure force, resulting in superior tightness
of seats and freedom from sticking. In addition, the wedge guiding minimizes seat rubbing and scuffing as seats are
contacted only at the last 5% of total travel, resulting in long cycle life.
2. TESTS
- Products are tested by the manufacturer.
- Test pressure and loss rates are allowable according to SR EN12266 (without losses) or API598 / API 6D.
3. CODIFICATION
- Coding RSP-CB side entry type is presented in the general product specification 832/2008 rev. 2.
4. Identification plate
All valves contain an identification plate that is attached to the housing body.

7.3 Installation
Inspect the piping system prior to valve installation whenever possible, to ensure that it has been properly
flushed and cleared of construction and fabrication debris. The seating surfaces in soft seated valves are particularly
susceptible to weld slag and sand blasting grit. Pipe scale, metal chips and other foreign materials should be
removed.
Verify that Actuator, and mounting hardware as appropriate were included with the valve and are in good
shape, that proper tagging is in place and any warning labels are eligible and observed .
Just prior to installation, remove each valve from its packing and remove any end covers.
Examine the flow bore for debris. All FEPA gate valves are shipped in the open position to prevent damage to
the ball surface. Any grit or foreign matter must be removed. Scratched or damaged gates must be replaced. Do not
install a damaged valve.
It is also important to check for valve operation clearances. Valves may be installed in any position using
standard pipe fitting practices. If possible, mount the valve in such a position that the actuator can, if necessary, be
detached without removing the valve from the pipeline. The actuator must not touch the pipeline, as pipeline
vibrations may damage it or cause disturbance.

4 - Stem Gland;
5 - O-ring 47.22x3.53;
6 - Gasket gland;
7 - O-ring 31.42x2.62;
8 - O-ring 44.12x2.62;
9 - Rod seal RSA 0320 0400 057 A0 (FEPA code 3824.4052);
10 - R-PTFE packing for 32 stem (4024.1121);
11 - Valve stem.
First we must remove the connection bush - pos. 1, by unscrewing the blocking
pin 2. Then unscrew the pos. 3 screws for extract the stem gland 4 and o-ring gasket
pos. 5 . After that extract the gaskets gland 6 along with O-rings gaskets 7 and 8 and rod
seal 9. At the end extract the packing 10.
Replace all the used gaskets, grease the montage gaps with adequate grease
and then proceed in reverse way for reassemble the stem seals. Screws enough the
screw 3 to enssure tightness of stem seals but not to much to increase the force
needed to close/open the valve.
For that watch the fig. 4 and follow the instructions below:
The valve is composed by components according to fig. 5:
1. Stem;
5. Spiral-wound gasket;
2. Bonnet;
6. Gate (wedge);
3. Nut;
7. Body;
4. Stud;
8. Seats (3824.2618+3824.2216);
Disassemblyng start with unscrewing the nuts 3 and removal of studs 4.
Be carrefull about fluid under pressure traped between the gate 6, body 7 and
bonnet 2 !
Lift the bonnet 2 carrefuly and remove the spiral-wound gasket from its hole.
Clean these hole and prepare the surfaces with attention for placing a new spiral-wound
gasket at the assembly the product.
The two seats can be removed using a special tool for unscrewing them from its
location in body.
According to drawing bellow the seats have four recesses that permit screwing and
unscrewing them in the body.
