This manual is provided to help you
service your Edward Forged Steel valves.
Before disassembling any valve, we recom-
mend that you check the valve identifica-
tion plate and note size, figure number
and pressure class, so that you can identify
it in the appropriate Edward Valve catalog.
This catalog will show typical cross sec-
tions to help identify the various parts.
Introduction
Bolted Bonnet
In bolted bonnet/cover style valves, cap
screws should be removed (see page 3
and below). The bonnet assembly or cover
can then be removed and the interior of
the valve exposed.
Screwed Bonnet
Small valves of the screwed bonnet type
are disassembled by unscrewing the
bonnet.
