Troubleshooting for Double Check Assemblies
PROBLEM
1. Check valve leaking
2. Low flows passing through
4. Do not force parts. Parts should fit
together freely. Excess force may
cause damage and render the assembly
inoperable.
5. Carefully inspect seals and seating
surfaces for debris or damage.
6. After servicing, repressurize the
assembly and test to ensure proper
operation.
3. Inspect/clean debris from the disc and
seat ring. Replace worn or damaged
parts as required.
4. Replace the cover, ensure the spring
assembly is positioned in the pivot sock-
et. If necessary, apply FDA approved
grease to the O-ring groove in the body
to keep the O-ring in position while
installing the cover.
5. Install the bolts and nuts and tighten.
