    Valves must be operable from grade or platform unless they are 4 inches or smaller, in which case ladder access is acceptable. Block valves used only for maintenance shutdown do not need chain operation if located less than 4500 mm above grade and in pipeways, and portable ladder access is sufficient. Preferred valve locations are in low horizontal runs or vertical runs between 750-1400 mm, or overhead at 2100 mm with the bottom of the handwheel at 1900 mm. Valves with handwheels over 2000 mm above grade require chain or gear operators, and chain operation should not be used for screwed valves or valves smaller than 2 inches. Sufficient clearance is needed for all valves to allow removal of the bonnet or plug. Val

    004 provided with chain or gear operators from grade or platform.

    VLV-PL-
    006 Chain operation shall not be used for screwed valves or for any valves smaller than 2″.
