Review factors
Condition, documents, and value context
Condition
The condition of the disc edge, seat integrity, and stem connections are critical for evaluating reusability. Valves with severe pitting, corrosion, or damaged resilient seats typically have lower recovery value.
Documentation
Original purchase orders, material test reports (MTRs), and routine maintenance logs help verify technical specifications and operational service history.
Evaluation context
Evaluations generally consider the manufacturer brand reputation, nominal size, material composition, actuation type, and the overall physical condition of the sealing surfaces.
