How to fix a Cameron WKM MA valve leaking around the stem?
If the Cameron Control Unit valve is leaking around the stem, the gland nuts may be loose, in which case you should tighten them. Alternatively, the packing may be damaged or worn, requiring you to replace the packing.
Why my Cameron Control Unit valve will not seal properly?
If the Cameron Control Unit valve doesn't seal properly, it could be due to several reasons. The seat and/or disc might be worn or damaged, requiring replacement of the worn parts. There might be foreign matter between the seat and disc; try operating the valve several times to wipe it clean. Also, the operator stops may not be set correctly, so adjust the stops to the proper setting.
What to do if Cameron WKM MA valve is hard to operate?
If the Cameron Control Unit valve is hard to operate, it could be due to a buildup of solids or roughness on the edge of the disc. Try operating it several times to wipe it clean, or disassemble the valve and clean the disc edge. Another cause might be that the stem packing is too tight; tighten the packing only enough to stop leaks. Finally, the operator might not be installed properly; reinstall the operator in proper alignment with the valve stem.
Why is my Cameron WKM MA Control Unit valve leaking between body and seat retainer?
