installation procedures
must be
followed in
order to
mini-
mize any
chance of
damage to
the valve:
Item 1
Use a

The flange
of this
valve is
a flat
faced
flange and
is designed
for this
type of
gasket.
Item 2
Gasket material
should be
elastomeric or
compressed sheet.
This will
assure proper
sealing when
installed in
accordance with
these practices.

follows:
2" thru

58 foot
