.2

Butterfly valves to have ductile iron full lug body, 316 stainless steel stem
with bronze bushings and aluminium bronze disc.

.3

The stem journals will be a multiple seal design providing for completely
independent seals. The stem disc assembly will be such that the need for
pins, screws or bolts is not required. Positive stem retention to be
provided to permit removable of handle or actuator while under full
operating pressure.

.4

The valve seats to consist of replaceable resilient elastomer.

.5

Manual butterfly valves to size 100mm to be supplied with multi-position

handles; size 150mm and over to be supplied with enclosed worm gear
operator.

.6

Valve body to be full-lug pattern to comply with and be compatible with

flanges of appropriate pressure rating.

CONTROL VALVES
.1

Control valves shall be supplied and fitted where shown on the drawings
and where regarded essential for proper balancing and water flow control.
They shall be of the globe pattern and equal percentage type, screwed
gunmetal for sizes up to and including 50 mm dia. Valves 65 mm and
above shall be of the flanged cast iron type.

.2

For copper pipe work the relevant detail specified earlier for isolating
valves shall apply.

COMMISSIONING (BALANCING) VALVE

.1

Balancing valves shall be of bronze construction, rated for the working

pressure of the system.

.2

Balancing valves shall be used to regulate the flow rate of a circuit,

terminal unit or zone. Each balancing value shall be provided with test
plugs or matching station to facilitate the connecting of a differential
pressure meter to measure pressure drop across the valve in determining
the flow rate.

.3

The balancing valve shall have an indexing pointer and calibrated

memory stop to indicate the degree of closure of the precision machined
orifice.

.4

Each balancing valve is to be constructed with internal 0-ring seals to

prevent leakage around the rotating element. The valve shall be provided
with drainage facility.

.5

A suitable electronic microprocessor test kit shall be provided. The set

shall be complete with all necessary hoses, shut-off and vent valves,
gauge, base plate and carrying case. Reading range shall cover the
maximum flow of the system.
