FULL FLOW BALL VALVES – INSTALLATION STEPS (See image gallery for visual guide)

• All pipe work must be adequately supported.
• Use a thread sealant on all threaded connections. It is recommended to use Loctite 5331.
• If you are using chemicals or have any special requirements that you wish to use your Ball Valves for, kindly see the Chemical Resistance chart.
• Fittings should be installed as per applicable standards and approvals for pipe and fittings. Failure to complete installation in accordance with applicable standards and approvals may void warranties given by Hansen Products (NZ) Limited in respect to the fitting. It is recommended to follow piper manufacturer’s guideline.
  • 1.) Use a teflon tape sealant or a thread paste sealant. The right sealant for threaded joints is non-hardening, compatible with plastic and doesn’t add slipperiness to encourage over-torquing.
  • 2.) Screw pipe or fitting into Ball Valve.
  • 3.) Do not over tighten. The recommended way to assemble a Ball Valve is finger tight. Tighten until firm with spanner or pipe grip. One or two turns should be all that is required.

FULL FLOW BALL VALVE HANDLE REMOVAL STEPS (See image gallery for visual guide)

• 1.) Turn handle clockwise slightly.
• 2.) Put fingers under handle and pull whilst pushing with thums on body of valve.

VALVE OPEN OR CLOSED (See image gallery for visual guide)
