Symptom Cause and Remedy  
Even when valve plug 
is in closed position, 
large flow leaks to 
downstream side.
•  Air leak at actuator section.
•   For trial, apply the air supply pressure or atmospheric 
pressure to the actuator. (Check the air supply source and 
positioner.)
•   Check whether the valve plug is actually the closed position 
or not. (Check the valve plug lift)
•  Check the plug seat ring for corrosion and erosion.
•  Check the guide sections for binding.
