Common failures & inspection points

External corrosion or visible damage to valve body, flanges, and fasteners

Visual inspection for corroded areas, dents, distortions, and surface defects on all exposed valve components and connections

Leakage at valve seals, gaskets, and connection points

Pressure test for tightness with soap/water solution on all joints under pressure; verify blowdown and leakage per ISO 15364:2021 Annex J; document bubble sizes (isolated small bubbles acceptable, numerous larger bubbles indicate exceedance)

Valve disc and seat wear or erosion affecting sealing pressure integrity

Verify valve holds prescribed pressure for minimum 10 minutes; confirm relief pressure setpoint remains within specified range (12 kPa minimum for HS-ISO); inspect internal wear parts without tools per Pres-Vac design

Flame arrester element clogging, corrosion or degradation reducing flame suppression capability

Visual inspection of flame screens (0.65 MESG rating); verify removable elements can be accessed; check for salt deposit, oil accumulation or marine corrosion on flame path; test pressure drop remains within specifications

Loss of magnetic control effectiveness or moving parts restriction in magnet-assisted valves (DHM, Vacuum-M)

Verify smooth opening/closing operation without sticking; confirm pressure drop performance matches baseline; inspect sealed internal components for water ingress or debris; test responsiveness to pressure changes
