Installation

The APCO Slow Closing Custom Built Combination Valve should always be installed in a vertical
position. An isolation valve between this unit and the transmission (pipeline) system is recommended.
Where to use:
High points in pipelines where the hydraulic gradient and flow conditions are such that a negative
pressure can possibly occur.
High points on sections of pipeline having water velocities in excess of 10 F.P.S.
Adjacent to any quick closing valve in a pipeline such as a check or gate valve where vacuum
can occur upon closure.
On the discharge of larger deep well turbine pumps between the pump and the check valve.
If an Air/Vacuum Valve is to be installed inside a pump house, use threaded or flanged
connections and pipe back into the well or to outside. This will greatly muffle the high noise level
caused by the air being discharged and provide for drainage of any small amount of water or
water vapor that may accumulate.
Before installation, remove foreign material such as weld spatter, oil, grease, and dirt from the
pipeline.
Prepare pipe ends and install valves in accordance with the pipe manufacture's instructions for
the joint used.
Tighten the flange bolts or studs in a crisscross pattern and minimum of four stages.

Fusion/Powder Coated Valves

Valves with fusion/powder coated exterior paint require flat washers to be
installed under the flange nuts when installing the valve to the pipeline flange to
prevent the paint from cracking or chipping.
