Gear Operator & Valve FAQ
Q: What maintenance is required for Gear Operator & Valve systems?
A: Our Gear Operator & Valve systems are designed for minimal maintenance. We recommend quarterly visual inspections, annual lubrication of moving parts, and periodic torque checks on mounting hardware. The gear mechanism itself is typically maintenance-free for 5+ years under normal operating conditions.
Q: How do I select the right Gear Operator & Valve for my application?
A: Consider these key factors: 1) Pipe diameter/size, 2) Operating pressure requirements, 3) Temperature range, 4) Fluid medium (water, oil, chemicals), and 5) Frequency of operation. Our technical team can help evaluate your specific needs to recommend the optimal model.

Gear Operator & Valve FAQ (Continued)
Q: What certifications do your Gear Operator & Valve products hold?
A: Our products meet or exceed the following standards: API 6D for pipeline valves, ISO 5211 for mounting interfaces, AWWA C509 for water works applications, and ASME B16.34 for pressure-temperature ratings. All products undergo rigorous testing including hydrostatic, shell, and seat leak tests before shipment.
Installation Guidelines
- Ensure proper alignment between valve and pipeline
- Use appropriate gaskets for the service conditions
- Verify adequate clearance for gear operator rotation
- Follow proper torque specifications during assembly
- Perform operational tests before placing into service
