I am interrested to know the best maintenance strategies for control and on/off valves , especially installed on continuous process / petrochemical complex.
See manuals, find recommended spare parts that is usually recommended by manufacturer then assess if needed the exact quantity. The piping system this type must have a redundant set-up. It means 2 valves per line. Ask inventory for atleast 2 or 1 unit whole and spare is available. If there are none, decide to PR according to importance and urgency.
For most common sense dictates.
