New Code of Practice for Repair

Published: 5th December 2013 | Issue 27

This document entitled ‘BVAA Code of Practice for the Repair of Industrial Valves & Actuators’ has been prepared by the BVAA Repair working group, comprising manufacturers, repairers and customers, with the assistance and co-operation of other BVAA working groups.

It supersedes the previous BVAA publication ‘Industry Guidelines – The Repair/Reconditioning of Industrial Valves and Actuators’ published in 2005, which is now withdrawn.

The Code’s objectives are:

To specify a Code of Practice in the repair or reconditioning of valves, actuators and related products, excluding modifications and upgrades.
To provide a statement of the responsibilities falling on the manufacturers, repairers and owners involved in the repair of valves, actuators and related products.

BVAA would like to express its thanks to all those involved in the preparation of this document, particularly Repair WG Chairman Peter Churm, for their patience and determination to develop a more contemporary and comprehensive document for the subject of Valve and Actuator Repair.

Copies of the Code, available in pdf format, are available free of charge to BVAA Members and at a cost of £30+p&p to non-members.
