3) Poor weather condition for painting exists or is expected within two hours of application such as blowing
sand or ram.
4) The first coat of paint shall be applied as soon as possible after surface preparation, but in any case on
the same day and before rusting or contamination occurs.
5) Adequate masking shall be provided to prevent paint being applied to areas where it is not required i.e.
machined or polished surfaces, surfaces of stainless steels or certain non-ferrous alloys, name plates,
manufacturer's identification tags, instrument glass, control valve stem, high strength friction grip bolt
assembles, serrated surface of flange, etc.

4. Inspection
The following inspection shall be conducted and recorded:

 Temperature and relative humidity

 Surface preparation i.e. anchor pattern and cleanliness
 Dry film thickness for each application
 Visual inspection for each application

5. Safety
Appropriate shelter shall be used to protect other areas of the work and other personnel from any nuisance
or contamination caused by the cleaning and coating operations.

Precaution shall be taken to ensure that no hazard is created through the operations of static electricity by

The Combined Air Release & Vacuum Breaker Valve was designed, manufactured and tested for
allowing atmospheric air through the valve to rapidly displace draining liquid in the pipeline and
prevent potentially damaging internal negative pressure.

 Rule being applied

AWWA - C512 standard.
(American Water Works Association)

 Benefits
• Pressure & Vacuum relief function
• Anti-Surge & Anti-Shocks
• Surge and water hammer protection
• Liquid overflow protection
• Provides high capacity venting for pipeline protection
• Increasing of pump efficiency
• Less system energy
• Release small pockets under operation pressure

Operating & Maintenance Manual (VB-ARL) Page 2 of 7

Section 2. INSTALLATION

2-1 Inspect the unit for indications of physical damage or internal contamination for all equipment before installation.
The VBARL should be installed on the nozzle flange vertically.
2-2 First bleeding all pressure from the Tanks or Vessels before installation and replacement.
2-3 Inspect the flange surface of pipe line / VBARL nozzle flange.
It must be clean, free of scratches, corrosion, and flat.
2-4 Aluminum valves are furnished with flat face flanges and should match flat face flange with a full faced gasket.
2-5 Make sure the gasket that the material is suitable for the application.
2-6 Set the valve carefully on the nozzle. Install the studs and tighten nuts hand tight. Make sure that the flanges are
not distorted and that the gasket is evenly compressed.
2-7 For the installation of pipe line nozzle, in case of draw up a purchase requirement should be description, use
stud bolts and nuts supply whether or not and technical specification.
