(c) Butt weld adapter type
(process connection codes: KDB and KKB)
1) Removing adapter
Remove the butt weld adapter by loosening the
mounting screws.
2) Welding ferrule or sleeve
Weld a ferrule, a sleeve, or an alternative
(provided by the user) to the butt weld adapter.
IMPORTANT
• Be sure to weld the ferrule, the sleeve, or the
alternative after removing the butt weld adapter
fromtheowmeteritself.
• When welding the ferrule, the sleeve, or the
alternative, pay attention to the edge preparation,
level differences between them and the piping, and
the welding current to avoid deforming the piping
orcausingstagnationportionoftheuid.
3) Installing butt weld adapter
Installagaskettotinthegrooveofthebuttweld
adapter, and tighten the mounting screws.
CAUTION
• In case of standard gasket (EPDM rubber), tighten
the adapter mounting screw according to the
torque values in Table 3.3.18.
• In case that optional code GH (Silicon rubber)
is selected, tighten the adapter mounting screw
according to the torque values in Table 3.3.19.
• Tighten the adapter mounting screw in diagonal
order step by step.
• Aftertighteningofscrew,conrmthatgaskets
protrude inside adapter. Protruding of gasket is
necessary to keep the sanitary requirements.
