4.1. General• Valves are mechanical devices specifically designed to
start, stop, direct, mix, or regulate the flow, pressureof a process fluid.
• Based on its function, application, and design; valve can be classified into different styles, sizes, and variouspressure.
• Common types are plug, ball, globe, butterfly, and gatevalves.
• Valve can be manufactured using different materials i.e.steel, iron, plastic, brass, or other special alloy material.
• Valve main components is given in Fig. 4.1

Fig. 4.1 Basic components of a valve
• The internal elements of a valve are collectively referred to as a valve's trim.
• The trim typically includes a disc, seat, stem, and sleevesneeded to guide the stem.
• A valve's performance is determined by the disc and seat interface and the relation of the disk position to the seat.

4.2. Valve Maintenance Requirement
Valve Coding and Color
• Industry practice is generally to label and color-code all identifiable mainline valves.
• There is no unified color-coding utilized by the industry, and each company selects its own colors.
• Valve labels are more unified and generally the following symbology is adopted by the industry(Table 2).

Valve Inspection and Schedule Codes and regulation require that every pipeline valve be
inspected and partially operated at least once each calender year, i.e., this is mandatory, not optional.
The industry’s general practice is to inspect mainline valves and side valves, including remotely operated valves, at least twice a year at intervals not exceeding 7,5 month.
The inspection and maintainance usually includes:1. Checking valve for general appearance, condition & leaks.
2. Lubricating the valve and parts.
3. Checking valve support and pipe support.
4. Performing any required maintenance works as per MI(manual instruction).
Ch 4 Valves & Operators Maintenance
Kuliah MS4102 Perawatan Mesin 18
Valve Inspection and Schedule (cont’d)5. Operating all valve from full open to close, if practical.
6. Correcting all deficiencies or problems found during the routine inspection.
7. Verifying valve proper operating position upon completion of the inspection and maintenance.
Before inspection, maintenance craft make a coordination with operation to operate any valve that affect the operation.
All valves are to be locked, except those within the confines of an approved area, building or other enclosue that is locked.
Record keeping, should include valve maintenance/test report.

Preventime Maintenance Treatment
To prevent damage, the following procedures is generally followed:
Pre-shipment:
• After hydrostatic test, the valve needs to be cycled to the full open position.
• Valve is packaged properly to prevent grease from leaking out and to prevent the air, water spray from entering the valve’s body
• Sealant system is to be filled by means of injecting a light grade synthetic valve lubricant.
• All body vent/drain valve need be in the close position.
Ch 4 Valves & Operators Maintenance

Preventime Maintenance Treatment (cont’d)
Shiping and Receiving:
• To protect from corrosion, valve may be coated with a light varnish to protect external surface and with a light oil or grease all internal surfaces.
• End covers is used to keep water and airborne contaminants from internal surface.
• The shipper/receiver need to verify that end covers are intact, the shipping grease has not leaked out that water has not leaked into the valve body.
• The shipper/receiver should not remove the end caps unless internal damage is supected.

Valve Handling:
• Valve need to be handled properly during loading/ unloading and during transportation.
• Preparation consists of crating/uncrating the vavle, protecting/removing the protective end covers and placing in on the ground to be externally painted or coated before welding into the pipeline.
• Valves should be lifted by means of external sling attached to the valve at the position as indicated by the manufacturer.

Installation:• Prior to installation, it is required that all varnish coating be
removed carefully.
• Case NO OPERATOR: all exposed valve stems must be cleaned and wrapped with a plastic waterproof covering and taped to secure.
• Case WITH OPERATOR: it is critically important to ensure the valve and operator from flexing.
• Special care must be taken to ensure that valve body does not overheat and damage body or internal elastomers (Teflon seals and O-rings).
• After installation it is important to ensure that the stem system is energized to ensure smooth operation.

Hydrostatic Testing:• Hydrostatic test pressure must never be applied against a
closed valve unless the valved is rated for the maximum test pressure.
• Prior to pressurizing the pipeline, all ball valve must be rotated to the half closed/open position to prevent the possibility of a pressure differential in the valve body.
• Valve must not be allowed to remain in this position for an extended period of time the elastomers in the seat ring become deformed severe seat leakage.
• Follow the SOP for hydrostatic testing as required by code or regulation.
• Upon completion of successful hydostatic test, valve must be returned to the full open position.
Ch 4 Valves & Operators Maintenance
Kuliah MS4102 Perawatan Mesin 29
Hydrostatic Test Procedure
− Fill pipeline with water, with all valves in full open
− Position, before building pressure, stops pumps
− Ball rotated to half–closed or half-open position
− Start water pump and build pressure to 50% MOP
− Valve and flanges examined for leakage
− Start pump and build pressure to full test pressure
− Hydrostatic test passed
− Pipeline drained
− Body cavity drained

Pipeline Commissioning:
• Sand, dirt, pebbles and rocks, sand blasting material, hand tools and timbres are some of the many contaminants normally discovered in valve bodies, pig receivers and scrapper/filter devices during pipeline commissioning during pipeline commisioning/after startup be careful.
• Minor valve seat leakage is often the result of tiny scratches to the seating surfaces caused by these contaminants.
• Experience indicates that a valve with even minor scratches will leak under high pressure, particularly in gas pipeline.
• These scratches may continue to erode into large leak path if PM program is not in place.
• Some PM procedure are described by Sealweld (1992, 2003).
