Installation

Install the valve and Advantage actuator

Installation
Note: T Consult the engineering catalog for actuator sizing. Consult the factory or engineering catalog for vacuum operation.
Consider the following information before installing the actuator:
The series 3, 5, 8, or 16 stainless steel bonnet Advantage Actuator can have the air inlets positioned in any quadrant.
• Maximum valve operating pressure is 150 PSIG (10.34 bar). This pressure is applicable up to 100º F (38º C). Valves at maximum pressure cannot be used at maximum temperatures.
To install the valve and Advantage Actuator, complete the following procedure:
1. If welding manually, remove the actuator.
2. If welding end valves for schedule 10 or heavier pipe, remove the actuator prior to welding in line.
3. If welding end valves for schedule 5 or lighter pipe and tubing, welding with automatic equipment is acceptable. In this situation, complete the following steps prior to performing the weld.
a) Do not remove the actuator. b) Set the valve to the open position. c) Properly purge the valve with an inert gas.
4. Install the valve stem between 0 and 30 degrees above horizontal for horizontal piping systems to be drained through the valve.
The proper valve orientation differs depending upon the valve type.
• Dia-Flo diaphragm valves can be installed in any orientation.
• Pure-Flo valves have either raised hash marks (castings) or small machined dots (forgings) on the valve body to indicate the correct drain angle. Position these marks at the 12 o’clock position to achieve the optimum drain angle.
5. Prior to pressurization (with the valve slightly open), follow the steps in the Tighten the bonnet fasteners.
6. For series 33 and 47 actuators, prepare an eye bolt with a 0.625" -18 female thread to attach to the adjusting bushing.

7. Connect the air line.
Connection size is 1/8" NPT actuators.
Note: Air line connections should be made with plastic actuator covers.
8. Cycle the valve two to three times to verify smooth operation.

Install diaphragm

1.
Unscrew the diaphragm from the compressor by turning counterclockwise.
a) Periodically inspect the valve compressor pin for excessive wear. Replace the pin or compressor if
excessive wear or axial pin movement is found.
The replacement diaphragm should be identical in size and grade to the original diaphragm.
2. For PTFE assemblies only:

3. Assemble the valve body following the steps in Tighten the bonnet fasteners.
4. Travel stop, if equipped, must be reset at this time to ensure proper closure. Follow steps in Adjust the travel (closing) stop.

Tighten the bonnet fasteners

Caution: Do not tighten fasteners temperatures (> 100°F/ 38°C).
1. Depressurize the system.
2. Use regulated air pressure to position diaphragm so that valve is slightly open. It may be necessary to use air pressure to actuate the valve.
3. Tighten the bonnet fasteners in a crisscross pattern in accordance with the Fastener torque table for valve body to actuator.
4. Make multiple criss-cross passes to build up torque to the final table value. Make additional criss-cross passes using final table values to evenly tighten each fastener to within 5% of torque value.
5. Retighten the bonnet fasteners as noted above at ambient conditions after the system has cycled through operating pressure and temperature.
6. Monitor the valve for leakage.

Values given are for lubricated fasteners.
Minim
um values given will provide longer diaphragm cycle life for valves in non-autoclave and low
thermal cycle conditions.
Maximum values given may be necessary for autoclave conditions and for high thermal cycle conditions.
Torques should be applied at near ambient conditions (< 100ºF/ 38ºC).

Actuator operating pressure

Maximum permitted air supply pressure is 90 psig (6.2 bar, 620 kPa).
The actuator has a pressure rating of 90 psig. However, the actuator will withstand pressures well in excess of the rated pressure without risk of bursting. Maintaining operating pressure at or below 90 psig will ensure optimum life of the operating components, such as the actuator diaphragm. However, operation at pressures up to 100 psig (6.9 bar), for limited periods of time, will not noticeably affect the life of these components.
