Storage Regulations for KLINGER PISTON VALVES and Spare Parts
Store valves and spare parts in dry storerooms only.
Fully assembled valves must be stored in delivery condition (valve in closed position, end connections
fitted with protective caps.)
Valve spare parts must be handled with care and should, if possible, be kept in their original packaging
during storage.
If cover film or shrink wrapping is used, take the necessary steps to ensure that there is no
condensation in the air inside the covering.
Appropriate measures must be taken to protect the equipment in dusty environments.
To avoid confusion. all parts stored must be labelled as on the delivery note and stored in the correct
place.
Temperatures in the storeroom must not exceed the limit values of –20°C and +50°C and rapid
changes in temperature (causing condensation and perspiration) should be avoided.
Handling Regulations and Operating Instructions are supplied with, and should always be stored with,
the products to ensure that important information and documents are appropriately passed on.
There are special Components Technical Sheets (Page 12, 13) to aid identification of Klinger spare
parts.
Our customers will be notified by circular letter of any modifications that affect storage requirements.
Klinger accepts no liability derived from guarantees, warranties and product liability legislation for
damage suffered by products due to incorrect storage.
Installation and Commissioning Regulations for KLINGER PISTON VALVES
(KVN Models)
Klinger piston valves can be installed in any position in the piping system. The preferred through flow
direction (indicated by an arrow on the valve body) should, however, be observed.
KVN piston valves of DN 65 – 200 mat. code VI, VIII are equiped with pressure relieved pistons and
therefore have no piston pump action.
After commissioning valves with the KX-GT module, no special maintenance is required since there is
no setting as with conventional, soft-sealing valve rings.
KLINGER piston valves have a very rugged body. However it is still important to ensure that planeside
connections lie parallel and true to axis.
wT 1209/11
Page 4
Note: If the line and valve are subsequently insulated, the insulation should only
extend upto the head flange on the body side so that access to the bonnet hexagon
nuts is not impeded.
Since the valve body can remain in site for repairs and maintenance work, the
valve insulation does not need to be removable.
Klinger accepts no liability relating to guarantees, warranties and product liability legislation for damage
caused by incorrect installation and failure to observe the commissioning regulations.
Operating Instructions for KLINGER PISTON VALVES (KVN Model)
Klinger piston valves must be closed clockwise and opened anti-clockwise.
Especially when closing the valve, the hand wheel should be turned until it adjoins on the bonnet. Unlike
globe valves, piston valves do not require increased final torque. Due to the design of piston valves, a
seal may be achieved before the closed position is reached. To protect the valve rings, piston valves
must always be closed as far as they will go.
Because Klinger piston valves can also be used to regulate and to throttle, the above does not apply
when opening the valve or setting it to the open position for regulating or throttling purposes.
Through flow characteristics for valve throttle positions are available from Klinger on request.
If a valve starts being untight, check the tightening torques of the bonnet fastening nuts (27) referring to
the table on page 11 and tighten if necessary.
The valve has to be in CLOSED position, except valves adjusted with KX-GT valve rings may remain
also in OPEN position.
Klinger accepts no liability relating to guarantees, warranties and product liability legislation for damage
caused by failure to observe the operating instructions.
Recommended Preventative Maintenance to Obtain the Best Possible Service Life
from KLINGER VALVES
As with all spindle-operated mechanisms, regular lubrication can substantially prolong the useful life of
the spindle (9). In addition, less effort is required to operate the hand wheel when the spindle is well
lubricated.
wT 1209/11
Page 5
Hazardous Operating Errors and Possible Sources of Danger
Piston valves provide a particularly good seal. During Temperature changes, process fluid captured
between two piston valves can cause considerable changes in pressure which may exceed the
pressure category of the valve. In such cases, appropriate volume compensation (expansion tank) is
necessary.
Always ensure that the correct tightening torque specified in the Technical Data Sheet on Page 11 is
applied to the bonnet hexagon nuts.
Do not loosen or undo these nuts while the valves are under pressure.
The valves must no be subjected to pressure shock in excess of one and a half times their rated
pressure.
When the spindle thread becomes so worn out that its stability seems endangered, release the pressure
and carry out the necessary maintenance.
Whatever the application, always consult the operating limits diagram (pressure-temperature) and also
consider the suitability of the materials for various process fluids.
Maintenance and Repair Instructions for
KLINGER – PISTON - VALVES (KVN Models)
Klinger piston valves are easy to repair using simple assembly and dismantling tools. The valve does
not have to be removed, but the line system must be depressurised and emptied.
We recommend the following procedure for dismantling:
• Depressurise and empty the system
• Open the valve fully
• Unscrew the stud bolt (25), then unmeant Belleville washers (33)
• Turn the hand wheel (3) clockwise (closing direction),at the same time bonnet (2) rises out of body
• Turn bonnet slightly until the flange adjoin against the stud bolt faces (25) and turn hand wheel anti-
clockwise (opening direction) until the piston (4) is completely free of the top valve ring (14),
(see Fig.1)
wT 1209/11

• Remove upper block with hand wheel, piston, piston shaft (10) and spindle (9)
• Remove compression piece (18) and top valve ring using ring extractor hook, (see Fig. 2) *)
• Remove lantern gear using lantern bush (5) extractor, (see Fig. 3) *)
• Remove bottom valve ring (14) with ring extractor hook *)
• *) Be careful not to damage the housing bore of the valve body
• Clean the valve body and the valve ring seat, if necessary with fine sandpaper
• Remove bonnet valve ring (16) from bonnet neck
• Loose hexagon nut (30), remove serrated lock washer (35) and hand wheel (3)
• Unscrew hexagon nuts (29), remove Belleville washer (34) and lift off gland retainer (11)
• Unscrew the spindle downwards out of the threaded bush (20)
• Pull the piston shaft with the spindle down till it is out of the stuffing box ring (17)
• Tap the spacer (22) to remove the stuffing box ring set
Attention: Whenever the valve ring is replaced, always check at the same time that the
piston/spindle/bonnet assembly is functioning properly. Check that:
a) the outer cylinder surface of the piston and piston shaft is smooth and unmarked.
b) the spindle head moves freely in the two-part screwing
c) the trapezoid thread of the spindle is not unduly worn and
d) there is no excessive play between spindle and nut threads (in the bonnet and threaded bush)
If none of the above components needs replacing, lubricate the trapezoid thread and the neck of the
bonnet with a suitable lubricate, such as Metaflux Lubricating Metal Paste 70-85 before reassembling
the valve.
If the spindle. needs to be replaced we suggest to change always spindle and threaded bush as well. If
the above mentioned parts need replacement, proceed as follows:
• Tap the tension pin (31) out of the bonnet (inwards)
• Detach the wire ring (26) and Piston nose cone (13) from the piston
• Clamp the piston shaft in a vice
Attention: Imperatively use soft clamping jaws

Operating instructions for the rebuilding of a piston valve Type KVN to a
regulating piston valve KVRLN
Klinger-regulationg piston valves KVRLN are adjusted with a regulating lantern. Therefore the
throughflow direction is almost linear which facilitates the regulation of the media flow. The sealing
system correspond to the piston valve principe. The Closing function can be applied same as with the
normal piston valve.
See catalogue for fitting dimensions, pressure ratings, materials and application limits.
For the rebuilding of a piston
valve KVN to a regulation piston
valve KVRLN please refer to this
KLINGER mounting and
operating instruction .
The lantern (KVN-Standard) has
to be replaced by a regulating
lantern.
After that the valve can be
assembled again according the
mounting instructions.
