INTRODUCTION
UNI B - 9000
A. General Note
Having a unique double-seat structure, Unicoms Highseal valves are high-performing
butterfly valves that bring an excellent operation and that can be used widely from only
on-off control type to proportional regulation type, etc. A simple and clear valve
structure enables user to assemble and disassemble easily.
B. Structure / Type
Highseal valves are classified as Wafer Type, Lug Type and Flange Type by their shape.
Their principal parts consist of body, disc, seat and shaft, and materials of each part are
different according to the working condition.
C. Operation
The valve operator could be classified into a lever handle, manual gear, pneumatic
actuator and electric motor operated actuator. By rotating or closing the disc located at
the inside of valve, the fluid flows through the pipe can be shut-off or regulated.
(Generally, on-off direction is indicated on the operator)

INSTALLATION
UNI B - 9000
A. Pre-Inspection
Before installation of valve to the Pipe Line, it is recommended to inspect a valve
closely as below.
1. Inspecting Valve & Accessory
- Ensure any damage that might be occurred during the transportation.
- Remove the protection cover of valve just before installation and clean a dust or
mote with an air blaster or smooth dust cloth / mop.
- Check the tightness of all kinds of bolts and nuts.
2. Inspecting Pipeline
- Remove foreign materials such as a rust, welding chip, etc, which remain in the
pipe or flange.
- Make sure the clearness of pipe flange and gasket surface.
Caution :
When the fluid is flowing through the line, any foreign material is subject to scratch
the disc, seat and inner body, so that the scratch may cause leakage and shortening
of the valve lifetime.
B. Installation
-
Caution :
- For longer lifetime of the valve, please be sure of the arrow on valve and fluid direction.
- Over torque on the bolt might cause damage of gasket.

MAINTENANCE / INSPECTION
UNI B - 9000
A. Maintenance
The Highseal valve doesnt need a particular maintenance unless any leaks are found,
however, some routine inspection are recommended for safety and longer lasting lifetime
as below;
-
Visual inspection of the body, disc and packing part of valve at the initial service
or at the re-operation after long-term recess.
Check up the valve when abnormal sound is perceived during the operation.
Ensure tightness of each bolt regularly.
See Page 8, the section of disassembly of seat, for the replacement of seat.

(ASSEMBLY / DISASSEMBLY)
All the repair works (disassembly and replacement etc) of Highseal valve should be
performed by well-trained experts.
1. Separation of Valve from the Pipe
To repair leaking valve, the valve must be removed from pipeline and then parts must
be separated as below;
-
Caution :
If the fluid is toxic, proper protection should be required before the removal of
valve.

2. Disassembly of the Seat & Insert Ring
-
Open the disc of valve (5~10 degree) using a kind of rubber or urethane hammer.
Remove a tightened cap screw on the insert ring of the body.
Remove the insert ring by lifting it up using Jacking Tap. See the below picture.
Take out the inner seat. At this time, be careful about scratching, chopping and
damage of a seat, and clean dust or mote on the seat assembly parts with an air blaster
or smooth mop.
Refer to the below picture for disassembling of the insert ring & seat.
Remark :
After disassembly, please check the surface of disc. If any damage of disc is
found, the disc and shaft must be replaced together. In this case, please be
sure to get advice from Unicoms person in charge.

3. Replacement
Gland Packing Replacement :
carefully
after
cleaning
Packing
Housing.
. After inserting the packing, assemble the packing
gland and gland flange.
. The nuts of gland flange should be tightened
enough to push a packing gland downward, but
over tightness of nuts might cause over torque to
valve.

Bottom Packing Replacement
Warning:
Over tightening on the bolt might cause damage of screw thread parts.
Seat Replacement :
If the fluid cant be shut-off at full close position of disc, then seat-damage is
suspected. In case of seat-damage, replacement works should be followed as below;
i. See Page 8 (Disassembly of seat / insert ring) for removing of seat and insert ring.
ii. Please replace the damaged seat with a new one from Unicom.
iii. New Seat should be seated in state of disc-opening by 5~10.

iv. For assembling of the insert ring, please take the reverse steps of the previous
disassembly. Therefore, it is important to identify the location of each part where
they were before.
v. Slightly tighten the bolt of insert ring at close position and rotate the disc a couple of
times.
vi. Rotate the disc a couple of times and then tighten the bolt completely in state of disc
opening by 5~10.
vii. As a final step, rotate the disc several times to get the seat placed on right position.
This would help a seat get the most suitable contact with the disc.
viii. Install the valve on the pipe line with disc fully closed.
Caution :
Over tightening of bolts may cause a damage of screw thread of bolt and tap of body.
