Operation, Parts, and Instruction Manual
MAINTENANCE (Continued)
BALL SEAL MAINTENANCE (Continued)
Maintenance for ball seals consists mainly of seal replacement.
Should seals require maintenance or inspection, refer to the
VALVE REMOVAL instructions below. Once the valve has been
removed from the pipe line, refer to the DISASSEMBLY / BALL
SEAL REMOVAL instructions (Page 16) and the ASSEMBLY /
BALL SEAL INSTALLATION instructions (Page 40) for information
on removing and replacing the seal.
VALVE REMOVAL
Before You Begin:
• Read Safety Caution (Page 2).
• Use safe work practices and lock out procedures.
• Place the valve into the OPEN position, this helps to prevent
damage to the valve ball (Key 6) during removal. It is
important that the back edge of the ball never be rotated
past the ball seal, damage to the seal will occur.
• Sudden movement of actuator can cause damage or injury.
It helps to have the actuator de-energized as long as the
valve remains in the OPEN position. Disconnect supply lines
(air or gas), electric power, or control signal to the actuator.
• Vent any pneumatic actuator loading pressure and relieve
any actuator spring preload if present.
• Be aware of potentially hazardous process material that may
be present in-line and in-valve. Isolate the valve from
process pressure. Use a bypass or block valve if necessary,
or completely shut off the process.
• Relieve process pressure and drain the process fluid from up
and down stream of valve.
1Support the valve or valve/actuator assembly, refer to
UNPACKING VALVE FROM SHIPPING CONTAINER section
(Page 9) for support details.
2Remove the line bolting (Key 44).
3Remove and replace the line flange gaskets. Gaskets
cannot be re-used.
4Once the valve has been removed from the pipeline, place
the valve assembly on a flat work surface that can support
the assembled weight of the valve and actuator, with the
seal protector ring (Key 31) facing up.
ACTUATOR REMOVAL
Note: Actuator removal does not require that the valve be
removed from the pipeline. In some circumstances it may be
easier to remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is
still in the pipeline.
Before You Begin:
• Read Safety Caution (Page 2).
• Use safe work practices and lock out procedures.
• Sudden movement of actuator can cause damage or injury,
it helps to have the actuator de-energized Disconnect supply
lines (air or gas), electric power, or control signal to the
actuator. Sudden movement of actuator can cause damage or
injury, make sure actuator will not operate.
• Vent any pneumatic actuator loading pressure and relieve
any actuator spring preload if present.
• Be aware of potentially hazardous process material that may
be present in-valve.
1Refer to the appropriate actuator instruction manual for
more information regarding actuator removal.
2If the valve has been removed from the pipeline, place
the valve assembly on a flat work surface that can
support the assembled weight of the valve and actuator,
with the seal protector ring (Key 31) facing up.
3Remove the actuator cover plate, mark the
position/orientation of the lever in relation to the valve
shaft for re-assembly purposes.
4The actuator lever is typically clamped onto the valve shaft
(Key 11), loosen the actuator lever (Key G) by loosening
the lever cap screw (Key F).
5Support the actuator (use a lifting device if necessary) and
remove the actuator mounting bolts (Key 40), nuts (Key
41), and lock washers (Key 39).
6Separate the valve and actuator. Sometimes the actuator
lever will bind on the valve shaft. Use caution when
removing the actuator, forceful removal could damage the
valve and actuator or cause the valve ball (Key 6) to be
moved off center. Caution must also be taken as the valve
ball may rotate during separation.
