Control and Valve Installers and Repairers, Except Mechanical Door
Submarine valve inspection, troubleshooting, repair, and testing directly overlap with civilian mechanical valve repair.
How to prepare: Practice documenting a commercial valve repair against its manufacturer's service instructions, including test results, materials used, and repairs made.
What the civilian work involves
- Disassemble and repair mechanical control devices or valves, such as regulators, thermostats, or hydrants, using power tools, hand tools, and cutting torches.
- Record maintenance information, including test results, material usage, and repairs made.
- Lubricate wearing surfaces of mechanical parts, using oils or other lubricants.
