Valve data sheet not found

Valve data sheet not found

Valve data sheet not found

(OP)
Hi,

I have an installed manual valve at site, but no data sheet for it. its an old valve (20yrs) and the manufacturer still exists.
Is there a way to retrieve data about the valve?

Thank you

RE: Valve data sheet not found

If there's still a nameplate on the valve they typically have a serial or model code which should be able tell you everything you want to know.

Sometimes the model number cast into the valve body so you at least have that information. Otherwise take a picture of it and ask your local rep.

RE: Valve data sheet not found

What kind of data are you looking for?
You can already gather a lot of information using only the norm your valve has been designed with. Maybe you can post a picture here.
Hopefully if the nameplate hasn't been painted over the last 20 years, you can ask your local Rep, RVAMeche is right.
