Reusing of existing valve and spectacle blind

Reusing of existing valve and spectacle blind

Reusing of existing valve and spectacle blind

(OP)
Hi there!
I currently have serveyed at construction site (Gas Sepration Plant & Ethane Seperation Plant) but to verify whether some existing valves and spectacle blinds are capable to reuse is out of my professional capabilities.

Is there anyone who have experiences in accessment of these materials. What its status shall be reused and what shall need to be replaced?

Thank you very much and have a good time to everyone,

RE: Reusing of existing valve and spectacle blind

Spectacle blinds:
Unless they are very badly corroded they should be reusable.  Make sure the gasket face is clean and in good condition.

Valves:
You do not tell us what country you are located in, so it is hard to know what might be available.  If you were (are) in the USA than I would suggest that you remove and sort out the valves you want to reuse.  Then call in a valve reconditioner and have them give you a quote on reconditioning the valves.  That is what they do.
