Eccentric Plug Valve Installation Video: Best Practices
The Eccentric Plug Valve Installation Video by DeZURIK provides essential guidance for the correct installation and optimal operation of industry-trusted Eccentric Plug Valves. Since 1928, DeZURIK has been a key supplier of valves used in both industrial and municipal settings. Their eccentric plug valves, known for their rectangular port and offset plug design, are ideal for a wide range of applications. These include clean and dirty liquids, slurries, sludge, and gases—offering tight shutoff and excellent control in throttling and modulating operations.
To ensure long-lasting performance, proper installation based on the pipeline media is critical. DeZURIK’s video emphasizes that the orientation of the valve during installation plays a significant role in operational efficiency and longevity. For clean liquids or gases, DeZURIK recommends that the valve be installed with the flow directed toward the back side of the plug, regardless of whether the installation is vertical or horizontal. This orientation supports optimal sealing and flow control.
When dealing with pipeline media containing suspended solids or dirty gases, orientation direction is important to prevent solids from accumulating inside the valve. In vertical installations, DeZURIK advises positioning the seat side of the valve upwards. This helps prevent solids from settling into the valve body when the valve is closed. In horizontal configurations, the valve should be installed so that the flow is directed against the face of the plug. This orientation ensures that when the valve closes, solids are flushed away rather than being trapped inside the valve.
This Eccentric Plug Valve Installation Video not only reinforces the versatility of DeZURIK’s valves but also delivers practical tips that help reduce maintenance and extend service life. For engineers, plant operators, and maintenance teams, understanding installation orientation is vital for efficient system performance and reliability. Whether your system handles clean water or abrasive sludge, DeZURIK’s orientation guidelines will ensure your valve performs at its best.
