Operation
Shut off valve
Flow through the check valve overcomes
the spring force to open the main check Optional
valve element. When the disc lifts in check valve
response to an increase in main flow, the
bypass flow is decreased as the port
openings in the disc stem begin to close.
Conversely, as the pump flow is reduced,
the check disc moves downward and at a Long radius pipe bends
designated point starts to uncover the
disc stem ports allowing bypass flow to Bypass flow

The sizing of the main check/trim is such recommended at valve inlet
that the bypass flow starts before the
main flow drops below the minimum pump From
flow specified. The combined main and Figure 1

This may not be practical on larger sizes.
The valve may be installed with the main flow direction either horizontal or vertically up.
The direction of bypass flow may be selected to suit the installation.
Operational Check
When the valve is properly installed the combined main and bypass flows should equal
or exceed that of the specified minimum pump flow. If operational checks indicate a
deviation from the original specifications and field adjustments are necessary, contact
Yarway Corporation for additional information.

Installation and Maintenance Instructions
CAUTION
Do not attempt to lift these valves using a strap or chains around the webs on the
upper stop (item #2). These screws (item #19) will not support the valve weight.
Lift these valves using eye hooks in the tapped holes provided for the flanged
connection.
If it becomes necessary to handle this valve from the bypass side, do not attempt
to lift these valves using a strap through the helix on the flow conditioner (item
#5). The tack welds are not intended to support valve weight. Lift these valves
using eye hooks in the tapped holes provided for the flanged connection.
Valve Maintenance
Except for periodic operational checks the valve requires little maintenance. The disc
assembly, spring, bypass bushing and bypass adapter should be inspected coincident
with other annual inspections. Make certain that all pressure is relieved and the pipeline
is secured against pressurization before attempting disassembly for inspection purposes.
Disassembly and Inspection (Refer to Figure 2)
1. Remove the valve from the line orienting the main vertically up.
2. Evenly unfasten the upper stop jacking screws (item #10) relieving spring
compression until the upper stop is free. Remove the upper stop, inspect and
replace gasket or O-ring (item #8) and snubber seal (item#9).
3. Remove the spring (item #7) and inspect for damage.
4. Lift the disc assembly until it clears the valve body. Inspect the disc stem, slot
surfaces and snubber seal (item #9) for damage or excessive wear.
NOTE: If substantial flow and pressure related damage is found on the disc, special
attention should also be given to the bypass bushing during inspection to assure it is
undamaged.
5. Examine the check valve seat for evidence of wear. This surface can be reconditioned
by lapping the disc to the body. First use 180 grit (medium-coarse) followed by 360 grit
(fine). The finished surface should be 360 degrees and a minimum of 1/2 the available
seat width. Clean thoroughly after each lapping operation.
6. The bypass bushing (item #6) is press fitted in place. This is not considered a field
replaceable component. If excessive wear is apparent, please consult with factory for
repair.
7. If the Flow conditioner (item #5) shows excessive wear it can be removed by
pencil grinding the tack welds and lifting the worn part from the body (item #1). A
replacement flow conditioner can then be installed and re-tack welded in place
using ER-309 weld wire.
Inspect the condition of all the sealing surfaces. It is recommended that all O-rings
and seals be replaced at each disassembly. Use an appropriate O-ring lube for the
specified elastomer taking care not to pinch or shear the seals during installation.
Supply the following information when ordering spare parts:
(1) Figure Number
(2) Serial Number
(3) Type of fluid
Reassembly (Refer to Figure 2)
Reassemble the valve by reversing the above disassembly procedure taking care not to
damage the snubber seal when lowering the upper stop into the disc.
