How do they match: Control and Valve Installers and Repairers, Except Mechanical Door

  • Attach pressurized meters to fixtures which submerge them in water, and observe meters for leaks.
  • Attach air hoses to meter inlets, plug outlets, and observe gauges for pressure losses to test internal seams for leaks.
  • Calibrate instrumentation, such as meters, gauges, and regulators, for pressure, temperature, flow, and level.
  • Calibrate thermostats for specified temperature or pressure settings.
  • Connect regulators to test stands, and turn screw adjustments until gauges indicate that inlet and outlet pressures meet specifications.
  • Install regulators and related equipment such as gas meters, odorization units, and gas pressure telemetering equipment.
  • Replace defective parts, such as bellows, range springs, and toggle switches, and reassemble units according to blueprints, using cam presses and hand tools.
  • Test valves and regulators for leaks and accurate temperature and pressure settings, using precision testing equipment.
  • Vary air pressure flowing into regulators and turn handles to assess functioning of valves and pistons.
