1 GENERAL
1.1 Scope of the manual
This manual provides the essential information needed by
users of PZ capping valves. If you require further informa-
tion on actuators and instrumentation, see the separate
installation, maintenance and operation instructions for the
various models.
1.2 Valve construction
The PZ is a capping valve designed for use in batch digest-
ers. The valve is fitted to the digester from the lower body
flange.
The upper body half has a metal seat into which the ball is
pressed by a mechanical tilting device when the digester is
not pressurized. The tilting device is pre-tightened during
installation, and no adjustments are required during opera-
tion. The pressure of the digester further tightens the seal
provided by the tilting device.
The mounting holes for the chip feeding chute are in the
top flange plane of the valve.
The ball and stem are integrally cast. The hard-chromed ball
surface ensures low friction and high corrosion resistance.
The full-bore ball and the flow port’s liner insert allow
smooth passage of the chips.
Optionally there are electrical or mechanical interlocking
devices available.
The electrical interlocking device consists of pressure trans-
mitters (2 pcs.), relays, solenoid valves and limit switches.
See the application report no: 2611/01/02en * 12/2011,
Safety interlocking system, "ACC".
The mechanical interlocking device B1CP is based on a
spring-return cylinder which operates a lever inside the
actuator. This lever locks the valve in the closed position.
These devices prevent the valve from opening while the
digester is pressurized.
1.3 Valve markings
The valve has an identification plate (Fig. 2). The upper
body half is marked with the pressure rating, nominal size,
batch number, body material and manufacturer’s code.
Identification plate markings are:
1. Body material
2. Ball material
3. Stem material
4. Seat material
5. Maximum operating temperature
6. Minimum operating temperature
7. Maximum shut-off pressure differential/temperature

1.5 Valve performance
Actuators are factory set for proper opening times.
1.5.1 Operation time
During start-up or other exceptional circumstances, cap-
ping valves must meet extreme conditions where pressure,
impurities and high operational velocities can cause mate-
rial damages (ball / seat ring). Therefore PZ capping valves
have a recommended minimum operation time for 90°
rotation as listed:
Adjusted operating times are factory preset values, obtained
with restrictor valves installed in actuator air supply lines
between solenoid valve and actuator cylinder.
1.5.2 Vacuum during cooking
In modern cooking processes there can be sequences
where digester vessel operates below atmospheric pressure
ie. in vacuum conditions.
In such cases it is recommended not to exceed 30 kPa (0.3
bar) vacuum with PZ capping valve.
If higher values are expected, please contact the manufac-
turer. See also Section 1.5.5.
1.5.3 Valve tightness
All PZ capping valves are factory tested to fulfill ISO 5208
rate D leakage test.
Corresponding leakage values, tested with water
1.1 x nominal pressure.
1.5.4 Additional arrangements
During normal sequences of cooking the PZ-series locked
scraping metal seat keeps the hard chrome plated ball sur-
face clean ensuring long lasting tightness and smooth
operation. However, in practice, it is difficult to totally pre-
vent chips, sawdust, dirt or any other contaminants from
adhering to the ball surface, particulary during the cooking
sequence (temp about 175 °C / 347 °F), causing possible
ball surface damages.
Metso realizes that some mills may require a water wash/
spray to the ball surface and others may require a water
bed. Information on these additional services may be found
in bulletin 2611/01/05 or contact your nearest Metso’s busi-
ness office: www.metso.com/contacts/contact-us/
1.5.5 Rear tilting device
The support (38) can be replaced with a rear tilting device
which locks the ball against the seat during cooking. The
device must be unlocked when operating. See Sections 9
and 10.
Operation:
1. The valve is open during filling. The pressure on top the
piston keeps the lock open (the supply pressure is lead
to part 74).
2. The valve is closed for cooking. The pressure underneath
the piston push up the rear stem (the supply pressure is
lead to part 72).
3. During cooking the lock pushes the ball against the seat.
This prevents impacts of the vacuum to the ball and
improves the tightness in the beginning of cooking.
4. Before opening of the valve the pressure should be lead on
top the piston to open the lock. If the locking is on when
opening the valve, the seating surfaces of the ball and seat
will be damaged.
Supply air pressure range to the locking cylinder is 4 ... 6 bar.

1.6 Valve approval
The design of the valve meets the standards and criteria set
by ANSI and ASME.
DIN 50049 3.1B material certificates are available for body
halves, ball and bonnet. A tightness test certificate is also
supplied.
1.7 Recycling and disposal
Most valve parts can be recycled if sorted according to
material. Most parts have material marking. A material list is
supplied with the valve. In addition, separate recycling and
disposal instructions are available from the manufacturer. A
valve can also be returned to the manufacturer for recycling
and disposal against a fee.
1.8 Safety precautions
2 TRANSPORTATION, RECEPTION AND
STORAGE
Check the valve and accompanying devices for any damage
that may have occurred during transport. Store the valve
carefully prior to installation, preferably indoors in a dry
place. Do not take the valve to the installation site or
remove the flow port protectors until it is installed.
The valve is delivered in the open position mounted on
transportation supports.
3 INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING
3.1 General
Remove the flow port protectors and check that the valve is
clean inside and not damaged. Do not remove the trans-
portation supports and flow port protection tape until
shortly prior to mounting the valve on the digester.
Fig. 6 Rear tilting device open
CAUTION:
Do not exceed the permitted values!
Exceeding the permitted values marked on the valve may
cause damage and result in uncontrolled pressure release.
Damage to equipment or personal injury may result.
CAUTION:
Do not remove or dismantle a pressurized valve!
Removing or dismantling a pressurized valve leads to
uncontrolled pressure release. Always release pressure
and remove the media from the valve before removing or
dismantling it.
Protect yourself and the environment from poisonous or
otherwise harmful substances.
Otherwise, personal injury or damage to equipment may
result.
CAUTION:
Beware of the cutting movement of the ball!
Keep hands, other body parts, tools and other objects
away from the open flow port. When the valve is in opera-
tion, the ball functions like a cutter. Shut off the actuator
pressure supply and detach the supply pipes for the dura-
tion of maintenance.
Otherwise, personal injury or damage to equipment may
result.
CAUTION:
Do not open the valve during cooking!
Valve control must be arranged to ensure that the valve
cannot be opened during cooking. Otherwise, personal
injury or damage to equipment may result.
CAUTION:
Beware of hot valve!
The valve body may be very hot during use.
Protect yourself against burns.
CAUTION:
When handling the valve or the valve package, bear in
mind its weight!
Never lift the valve or valve package by the actuator, posi-
tioner, limit switch or their piping.
Always fasten the lifting ropes to the lifting eye bolts, see
Fig. 5. Weights are detailed in the table on page 14.
Dropping the valve may result in personal injury or dam-
age to equipment.

3.2 Mounting the valve on the digester
Lift the valve by the lifting eye bolts, see Fig. 8.
The valve is delivered with the ball in the open position.
After any test-runs, make sure that the valve remains in the
open position to protect the ball surface.
To check whether an installed valve is in the open position,
ensure that
the arrow on the actuator pointer cover,
the groove at the end of the ball stem,
the stem key slot,
are all parallel to the ball flow port.
We recommend that the chip chute be provided with a
manhole approximately 300-500 mm above the valve.
3.3 The actuator
The valve should be installed in a position enabling the
actuator to be removed without detaching the valve from
the digester.
The recommended installation position is with the cylinder
upright.
The actuator must not touch the digester structure; vibra-
tion may damage it or interfere with its operation.
3.4 Commissioning
Make sure there is no foreign matter in the chip chute. If the
valve leaks check adjusting of the tilting device as
described in Section 4.7.2 Assembly. If the valve still leaks
something has been damaged in shipment or installation
and the factory should be contacted.
After long storage, the gland packing (28) may leak. Tighten
it before the valve is brought into use.
4 MAINTENANCE
4.1 General
Although Metso’s Neles valves are designed to work under
severe conditions, proper preventative maintenance can
significantly help to prevent unplanned downtime and in
real terms reduce the total cost of ownership. Metso recom-
mends inspecting the valves at least every five (5) years.
The inspection and maintenance interval depends on the
actual application and process condition.
The inspection and maintenance intervals can be specified
together with your local Metso experts. During this periodic
inspection the parts detailed in the Spare Part Set should
be replaced.
Time in storage should be included in the inspection interval.
Maintenance can be performed as presented below. For
maintenance assistance, please contact your local Metso
office. The part numbers in the text refer to the exploded
view and to the parts list in Section 8, unless otherwise
stated.
4.2 Changing the gland packing
If a leak in the gland packing cannot be eliminated by tight-
ening it, the packing must be replaced. The actuator can be
removed to facilitate this work.
Remove caps (53).
Loosen a little the tilting device nuts (18).
Remove nuts (17) and gland (6).
Remove ring (34) and old gland packings (28). The
lowest ring (34) need not be removed. Use a suitable
pointed instrument for removing the gland packings.
Do not damage the seating surface.
CAUTION:
When handling the valve or the valve package, bear in
mind its weight!
Fig. 8 Lifting the valve
NOTE:
When installing the actuator, make sure that the valve/
actuator package functions properly. Detailed information
on actuator installation is given in the separate actuator
instructions.
Observe the safety precautions mentioned in Section
1.8 before maintenance!
CAUTION:
When handling the valve or the valve package as a
whole, bear in mind the weight of the valve or the
entire package.
NOTE:
When sending goods to the manufacturer for repair, do
not disassemble them. Clean the valve carefully and flush
the valve internals. For safety reasons, inform the manu-
facturer of the type
of medium used in the valve (include material safety data-
sheets (MSDS)).
NOTE:
In order to ensure safe and effective operation, always use
original spare parts to make sure that the valve functions
as intended.
NOTE:
For safety reasons, replace pressure retaining bolting if the
threads are damaged, have been heated, stretched or cor-
roded.
CAUTION:
Ensure that the valve is not pressurized while the
gland packing is changed!

8 PZ 70 en 7
Clean the packing counterbore.
Push the new packing rings (28) one by one into the
counterbore with the gland (6). Position the cut ends
of the rings at a 90° angle to each other and at a 45°
angle to the flow port.
Push the outer ring (34) and gland (6) into place and
tighten the nuts (17) lightly.
Fasten tight the tilting device nuts (18) and then the
nuts (17) and install the cap (53). See Section 4.7.2.
Always check the seal of the gland packings after
installation.
4.3 Bearings (5, 22)
The ball stem bearing is located in the bonnet (8) under the
gland packing rings (28). The bearing is maintenance free. It
is recommended to be dismantled only when the whole
valve is dismantled.
The purpose of the bearing at the rear end of the ball, i.e.
the support (38), is to keep the ball at the valve center line
during operation, allowing a free up-and-down movement.
Normally, the support does not need to be inspected or
replaced.
4.4 Body joint
If the body joint leaks, tighten nuts (16) as shown in Table 1.
If the leak continues after the tightening, the valve must be
dismantled. Inspect the seating surface and ensure that the
body joint plane is level. Then replace the body gasket (26).
See Section 4.7.2.
4.5 Ball and seating
If the valve leaks, the probable cause is chips between the ball
and the seat. Before adjusting lifting springs (20), wash and
pool the ball surface with a water jet when valve partly open.
Operate the valve 2-3 times and retest.
If washing does not help, the valve must be dismantled and
cleaned.
If the ball surface is damaged for some reason and causes
leakage, the ball can be turned 180° provided that the ball
seat is not damaged. A damaged ball seat will destroy the
ball surface in a short time. The valve must be dismantled
for inspection before turning the ball.
4.6 Dismantling the valve
It is best to dismantle the valve for servicing when it is
detached from the digester. The lower body half can alter-
natively be left mounted on the digester. Use the loops
delivered with the valve for lifting.
Dismantle the valve on a clean, level cardboard or wooden
underlay.
Lower the valve onto the underlay if you have
removed the whole valve from the digester.
Turn the ball to the closed position.
Detach the actuator using the extractor, see
Chapter 6.
Dismantle the upper body half (1).
Fasten the lifting strap through the ball and keep it
adequately tightened.
Remove caps (53) and the tilting device nuts (18),
disc springs (20) and screws (13).
Detach the actuator console (7).
Remove the bonnet with gland packings (28) and
bearings (5, 22).
Remove the support (38) with extractor screws.
Lift the ball out of the body; take care not to damage
the seating surfaces or the stem.
Clean all dismantled parts carefully and replace worn
or damaged parts as necessary.
4.6.1 The ball
After lifting the ball from the body, place it on a clean, soft
surface for cleaning. Take special care to clean the ball seat-
ing surfaces and the gland packing area. Grind any minor
scratches on the ball and packing with 28/20 μm grinding
paste and finish with 7/5 μm paste. Scratches and burrs in
the stem can be ground with fine abrasive cloth of grade
400. If there are deeper scratches in the ball or it is mis-
shapen, send it to the manufacturer for repair.
4.6.2 Ball seat
The seat (4) is locked in its groove. If the seat is in order and
there is no reason to suspect the condition of the seal (25),
the seat need not be dismantled for servicing.
Remove the seat as follows:
First grind down the locking points with a grinder,
see Fig. 9.
Open the locking points with a sharp chisel to facili-
tate removal, see Fig. 10.
Make sure that the seat slides freely in the groove.
Turn the body half upside down and knock it lightly
near the seating edge to make the seat drop out of
the groove on the underlay.
4.6.3 The body
Clean the body halves carefully and check all seating sur-
faces.
The body gasket (26) must be replaced each time the valve
is dismantled.
NOTE:
Lifting springs are factory preset and excessive tightening
might damage the ball surface. See Section 4.7.2, Table 2.
CAUTION:
Do not dismantle or remove the valve when it is pres-
surized!

4.7 Valve assembly
4.7.1 Ball seat
To replace the back seal (25) of the seat (4), proceed as fol-
lows:
Cut the ends of the seal band to give a tight seal
against the edges of the groove where the two ends
overlap, see Fig. 11.
Place the seat into the upper body half and lock it at
the four points at 90° intervals, see Fig. 12.
Do not lock the seat too tight; it must be allowed to
slide in the groove.
4.7.2 Assembly
Place e.g. corrugated cardboard in the body to pro-
tect the ball during the lifting. Fasten the lifting
straps through the flow port.
Lift the ball into the lower body half with the stem
first through the bonnet opening. Center the ball in
the flow port. Leave the ball suspended by the lifting
straps.
Mount the support (38) and the new spiral gasket
(39).
Push the bearing (5) over the stem to match the lock-
ing notches with the locking ring stops at the butt of
the ball stem.
Slip the bearing (22) along the stem. The bearing
lock notch must match with the locking groove on
the bonnet (8).
Mount the bonnet (8) and the new bonnet gasket
(9).
Push the ring (34) and the new gland packings (28)
one by one into the packing groove with the gland.
Position the cut ends of the rings at a 90° angle to
each other and at a 45° angle to the flow port.
Set the outer ring (34) and the gland (6) into place
and tighten the nuts (17) lightly.
Set the body gasket (26) in place. The gasket must be
replaced each time the valve is dismantled.
Install the tilting device. Replace the bearings (24)
and ring (41) of the console (7). Slide the ring (41)
onto the stem.
Turn the screws (13) into the valve lugs, lock them
with lock nut (13a). Tighten the disc spring packs (20)
with nuts (18).
Loosen the ball from the lifting straps and remove
the straps.
Make sure that the ball is in the center of the flow
port by measuring the distances from the ball sur-
face to the groove of the body joint plane.
Lift the upper body half into place in the original
position. See that a gap of about 5 mm (0.2") is left in
the body joint when the body half is resting on the
ball.
Tighten the body joint nuts (16) as shown in Table 1.
Mount the actuator, see Chapter 5.
Measure the distance "B", See Fig. 13.

Feed compressed air into the actuator via the pres-
sure regulator, see Fig. 14.
If the actuator cannot turn the ball with the pressure
indicated in Table 2, depressurize the actuator and
loosen both tilting device nuts (18) by 90°. When
necessary, continue loosening the nuts 90° at a time
until the valve turns at the pressure indicated in the
table, see Fig. 15. Measure the distance "A", see
Fig. 16.
The measure "C" is the correct thickness of the
washer. If necessary, thin the washer. See Fig. 17.
Tighten the screws, keeping them in horizontally
balance.
Tighten the nuts (18).
Fill the cavities with Mobilplex 47 or equivalent
grease. Mount the caps (53).
Fasten tight the gland packing nuts (17). Always
check the tightness of the gland packings after
installation of the valve.
5 INSTALLING THE ACTUATOR
Make use of the separate actuator instructions.
Make sure that the stem end is clean and free from
burrs.
Select the stem key slot that indicates that the valve
is in the extreme position when the valve is closed.
Turn the studs into the actuator before sliding the
actuator onto the stem.
Slide the actuator into position carefully.
Adjust the open and closed position limits.
5.1 Adjusting open and closed positions
The open and closed position limits of the valve are adjusted
with the stop screws on the actuator, see Fig. 18.
Adjusting the closed position:
Using a soft pencil, draw two lines on the top surface of the
ball, the first at G1 and the second at G2 distance from the
edge of the ball flow port, see Fig. 19 and Table 3.
Adjust the closed position stop screw so that the end
of the G1 line is just visible directly under the edge of
the body flow port when the valve is closed, see Fig. 20.
Adjust the limit switch's close position, limit switch is
activated when the end of the G2 line is just visible
directly under the edge of the body flow port, see
Fig. 21.
