WELDING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: failure to follow these instructions
could result in serious damage to the valve seats
and seals.
1. To prevent weld splatter damaging the ball
surface and to facilitate the later removal of
the center section, ensure the valve is in the
open position.
2. Locate the valve in the pipeline and tackweld
the valve in position.
3. Loosen and remove the body bolts (010)
and nuts (011), allowing the body (001) to
be removed from between end connectors
(009). For R384 and R394 valves only - extra
care must be exercised at this stage as the
body will not slide out from between the
end connectors unless the pipe ends are
separated sufficiently to give clearance for
the raised fire lip and the spigot on the end
connectors. Damage to either the fire lip
or the spigot will effect the integrity of the
valves body seal (012) and the secondary
metal to metal seal of the ball and fire lip in
a fire condition.
When removing the body (001), ensure the
body seal (012) and seats (101) remain in the
original locations.
OPERATION
All Emerson ball valves are quarter turn.
Handle operated valves provide visual
indication of the valve position. When the
handle is across the line of the valve, the valve
is closed, and when the handle is in line with
the valve, the valve is open. Stops are integral
with the valve and only Emerson handles must
be used.
Actuated valves are available and Emerson
has various options of pneumatic and electric
actuators.
For further details on fitting actuator, refer
tothe mounting instruction sheet.

INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
4. Complete welding process, taking care
to protect the sealing faces of the end
connectors from weld splatter. Allow
cooling of the ends before reassembly.
5. Reassembly:
a) Check the body seal (012), seats (101) and
ball (100), making sure they are clean,
undamaged and in original locations and
that the ball is in the open position.
b) Check sealing faces of end connectors
(009) to ensure the surface is clean and
not damaged by weld splatter.
c) Relocate the body (001) between end
connectors (009), taking care that the
pipe ends are sufficiently apart to provide
clearance to slide the center section into
position between the ends. For R384 and
R394 valves only - care should be taken
not to damage the fire lip and spigot on
the ends. Make sure the end connector
spigots fit in the body seal grooves.
Replace body bolts (010) and nuts (011)
and retighten to recommended torques.
6. Inspect for leakage at plant start-up and
adjust if necessary.
CAUTION: if seats or seals are in any way
damaged, do not reassemble valve without
replacing damaged components.
