I have a Fairbanks 12in valve for a pool, probably about 60 years old. I have no information on it other than what’s listed on the valve itself. Do you know of any resources I could use to help maintain it? I don’t think it’s ever been maintained, having a hell of a time getting the rusted bolts replaced on the flanges. Thanks!
Hello Mr. Kevin. Can you help me with an issue that had arrived at the place where I work. We have a 40000 liters capacity tank and gave valves of 8 NPS are provided at suction side of pump. The pump is located at bottom level of tank and there is a gland leak at the gate valve. There are no isolation valves provided. Can you help me that how can I solve this problem when the tank is full. Thank you in advance.
shaik ali try using a freeze seal. Wrap a coil of copper tubing upstream on the piping and downstream if needed, and run liquid nitrogen through it. After a little while the fluid inside the piping will freeze forming an ice plug. Then you can replace the packing without flooding the space. Its used in power plants of every kind when you dont want to shutdown the plant just because you can’t get a leg of piping isolated. Hope it helped.

A piece of tie wire is handy to hold the packing follower and flange up out of your way while removing and installing the packing.

Thanks!
my advice is to buy another 12in valve with same bolt pattern and just replace it. but if it doesnt leak and it still works then dont replace it
What's the name of the tools for remove old gland pack?
Why not used a pin or magnet to hold the bracket ram from dropping down.
good
Thanks for the educative information

Freeze it, rigid also makes a handy machine to do this but I’m sure there not cheap.
