Sealants
Serck Audco sealants are formulated specially for use in Serck Audco valves and no other types of sealant should be used, nor
should Serck Audco valve sealants be used for any purpose other than injecting into Serck Audco plug valves without our express
recommendation.

Standard Construction
Serck Audco Standard Type
1
Valve
The Serck Audco Standard type valve has its integral
operating shank at the large end of the taper plug. The plug 3 9
is seated by means of forces applied through the gland
packing housed in the cover which also seals the shank
against leakage.
To prevent damage to the packing where it would 4
otherwise rub on the top of the plug, it bears on a metal
shim which is clamped between the body and the cover.
This reduces friction between the plug and the packing and
5
also acts as a separate and very effective seal against
leakage of the line fluid into the packing space.

Serck Audco Inverted Type
2
Valve 20
The larger sizes of Serck Audco Regular Pattern valves
are of the INVERTED TYPE. In this design, the plug tapers 21
towards its upper end and is firmly seated by means of a
loading screw passing through the cover which seals the
valve base.
3
The sealant chamber is at the upper end of the plug, and
the plug seating is independent of the gland, which serves
only to seal the plug shank against leakage to atmosphere.
These large valves are normally operated by a worm gear
unit and handwheel. 22

Figure Numbering
A familiarity with our figure number system is not necessary when specifying or ordering our valves. Providing a full description
of the valve is given, our Sales Office will translate this into a figure number. A full description of the valve would begin with
“Serck Audco Iron Plug Valve”, and would then go on to give size, pressure rating, flanging details etc.
We give an example below in order to illustrate figure number, but if a fuller explanation is required please request Standards
Sheet 0028-4001.
1st Digit Gives Pressure Rating
R - Regular 1 - ANSI 125
Size 50mm Standard Type S - Short

Test Pressures
Test Duration
Each relevant standard defines the minimum length of time for which each test pressure is to maintained and also the testing
operations sequence.
These duration will be adhered to unless a different specification is required against a particular order. If, once fitted into the
line, a valve is to be subjected to a greater test pressure or a longer duration of test, then this should be specified and this can
be covered at the inspection stage of the finished valve before painting.
