Precautions for Storage
Observe the following precautions in order to store the purchased valve properly.
• If the valve is packed in a cardboard box, store it indoors at room temperature and humidity.
• A valve packed in a wooden crate should also generally be stored indoors at room
temperature and humidity. For outdoor storage, after unpacking the valve and checking the
specifications, cover it with a polyethylene protective sheet to keep rainwater out.
To store a valve that has been used, follow the instructions below.
1. Wash out any fluid stuck to or remaining in the interior of the valve.
2. If it is likely that the valve will corrode, take preventive measures.
3. Cover the openings for air supply and electrical conduit connections with waterproof caps
or tape to keep water out. In addition, protect the threads on the connectors.
4. Protect the ends of piping connections (flanges, welded surfaces) using flange caps or the
like.
5. Store the product in a location that is subject to minimal vibration and shock.
