Description
These single‐port valves have cage guiding, quick‐change trim, and balanced push‐down‐to‐close valve plug action.
Valve configurations are as follows:
ED‐‐Globe‐style valve (figure 1) with metal‐to‐metal seating for all general applications over a wide variety of pressure
drops and temperatures.
EAD‐‐Angle version of ED, used to facilitate piping or in applications where a self‐draining valve is required.
C‐seal trim is available for ED valves, CL150, 300, and 600, in NPS 2‐1/2, 3, 4, 6, and 8. C‐seal trim is available for EAD
valves, CL150, 300, and 600, in NPS 3, 4, and 6.
With C‐seal trim, a balanced valve can achieve high‐temperature, Class V shutoff. Because the C‐seal plug seal is
formed from metal (N07718 nickel alloy) rather than an elastomer, a valve equipped with the C‐seal trim can be
applied in processes with a fluid temperature of up to 593_C (1100_F), provided other material limits are not
exceeded.
Specifications
Typical specifications for these valves are shown in table 1.

Educational Services
For information on available courses for Fisher ED and EAD valves, as well as a variety of other products, contact:
Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any installation operations to avoid personal
injury.
Personal injury or equipment damage caused by sudden release of pressure may result if the valve assembly is installed
where service conditions could exceed the limits given in table 1 or on the appropriate nameplates. To avoid such injury or
damage, provide a relief valve for over‐pressure protection as required by government or accepted industry codes and
good engineering practices.
Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
If installing into an existing application, also refer to the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section in this
instruction manual.
CAUTION
When ordered, the valve configuration and construction materials were selected to meet particular pressure, temperature,
pressure drop, and controlled fluid conditions. Responsibility for the safety of process media and compatibility of valve
materials with process media rests solely with the purchaser and end‐user. Since some body/trim material combinations
are limited in their pressure drop and temperature ranges, do not apply any other conditions to the valve without first
contacting your Emerson sales office
.
1. Before installing the valve, inspect the valve and associated equipment for any damage and any foreign material.
2. Make certain the valve body interior is clean, that pipelines are free of foreign material, and that the valve is
oriented so that pipeline flow is in the same direction as the arrow on the side of the valve.
3. The control valve assembly may be installed in any orientation unless limited by seismic criteria. However, the
normal method is with the actuator vertical above the valve. Other positions may result in uneven valve plug and
cage wear, and improper operation. With some valves, the actuator may also need to be supported when it is not
vertical. For more information, consult your Emerson sales office.
4. Use accepted piping and welding practices when installing the valve in the line. For flanged valves, use a suitable
gasket between the valve and pipeline flanges.
CAUTION
Depending on valve body materials used, post weld heat treating may be required. If so, damage to internal elastomeric
and plastic parts, as well as internal metal parts is possible. Shrink‐fit pieces and threaded connections may also loosen. In

general, if post weld heat treating is to be performed, all trim parts should be removed. Contact your Emerson sales office
for additional information.
5. With a leak‐off bonnet construction, remove the pipe plugs (keys 14 and 16, figure 18) to hook up the leak‐off
piping. If continuous operation is required during inspection or maintenance, install a three‐valve bypass around
the control valve assembly.
6. If the actuator and valve are shipped separately, refer to the actuator mounting procedure in the appropriate
actuator instruction manual.

WARNING
Personal injury could result from packing leakage. Valve packing was tightened before shipment; however, the packing
might require some readjustment to meet specific service conditions. Check with your process or safety engineer for any
additional measures that must be taken to protect against process media.
Valves with ENVIRO‐SEAL live‐loaded packing or HIGH‐SEAL live‐loaded packing will not require this initial
re‐adjustment. See the Fisher instruction manuals, ENVIRO‐SEAL Packing System for Sliding‐Stem Valves or HIGH‐SEAL
Live‐Loaded Packing System (as appropriate), for packing instructions. If you wish to convert your present packing
arrangement to ENVIRO‐SEAL packing, refer to the retrofit kits listed in the Parts Kit sub‐section near the end of this
manual.
Maintenance
Valve parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected and replaced as necessary. Inspection and maintenance
frequency depends on the severity of service conditions. This section includes instructions for packing lubrication,
packing maintenance, trim maintenance, and ENVIRO‐SEAL bellows seal bonnet replacement. All maintenance
operations may be performed with the valve in the line.
WARNING
Avoid personal injury or property damage from sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts. Before performing
any maintenance operations:
D Do not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
D Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any maintenance operations to avoid personal
injury.
D Disconnect any operating lines providing air pressure, electric power, or a control signal to the actuator. Be sure the
actuator cannot suddenly open or close the valve.
4
Instruction Manual
D100390X012
D Use bypass valves or completely shut off the process to isolate the valve from process pressure. Relieve process pressure
from both sides of the valve. Drain the process media from both sides of the valve.
D Vent the pneumatic actuator loading pressure and relieve any actuator spring precompression.
D Use lock‐out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in effect while you work on the equipment.
D The valve packing box may contain process fluids that are pressurized, even when the valve has been removed from the
pipeline. Process fluids may spray out under pressure when removing the packing hardware or packing rings, or when
loosening the packing box pipe plug.
D Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
Note
Whenever a gasket seal is disturbed by removing or shifting gasketed parts, install a new gasket during reassembly. This ensures a
good gasket seal because the used gasket may not seal properly.

Packing Lubrication
Note
ENVIRO‐SEAL or HIGH‐SEAL packing does not require lubrication.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage resulting from fire or explosion, do not lubricate packing used in oxygen
service or in processes with temperatures over 260_C (500_F).
If a lubricator or lubricator/isolating valve (figure 2) is provided for PTFE/composition or other packings that require
lubrication, it will be installed in place of the pipe plug (key 14, figure 18). Use a good quality silicon‐based lubricant.
Do not lubricate packing used in oxygen service or in processes with temperatures over 260_C (500_F). To operate the
lubricator, simply turn the cap screw clockwise to force the lubricant into the packing box. The lubricator/isolating
valve operates the same way except open the isolating valve before turning the cap screw and then close the isolating
valve after lubrication is completed.
Packing Maintenance

LUBRICATOR/ISOLATING VALVE
Instruction Manual
D100390X012
For spring‐loaded single PTFE V‐ring packing, the spring (key 8, figure 3) maintains a sealing force on the packing. If
leakage is noted around the packing follower (key 13, figure 3), check to be sure the shoulder on the packing follower
is touching the bonnet. If the shoulder is not touching the bonnet, tighten the packing flange nuts (key 5, figure 18)
until the shoulder is against the bonnet. If leakage cannot be stopped in this manner, proceed to the Replacing
Packing procedure.
If there is undesirable packing leakage with other than spring‐loaded packing, first try to limit the leakage and
establish a stem seal by tightening the packing flange nuts.
If the packing is relatively new and tight on the stem, and if tightening the packing flange nuts does not stop the
leakage, the valve stem may be worn or nicked so that a seal cannot be made. The surface finish of a new valve stem is
critical for making a good packing seal. If the leakage comes from the outside diameter of the packing, the leakage
may be caused by nicks or scratches around the packing box wall. If performing any of the following procedures,
inspect the valve stem and packing box wall for nicks and scratches.
Replacing Packing
WARNING
Refer to the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section in this instruction manual.
1. Isolate the control valve from the line pressure, release pressure from both sides of the valve body, and drain the
process media from both sides of the valve. If using a power actuator, also shut off all pressure lines to the power
actuator, and release all pressure from the actuator. Use lock‐out procedures to be sure that the above measures
stay in effect while you work on the equipment.
2. Disconnect the operating lines from the actuator and any leak‐off piping from the bonnet. Disconnect the stem
connector, then remove the actuator from the valve by unscrewing the yoke locknut (key 15, figure 18) or the hex
nuts (key 26, figure 18).

3. Loosen the packing flange nuts (key 5, figure 18) so that the packing is not tight on the valve stem. Remove any
travel indicator parts and stem locknuts from the valve stem threads.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage caused by uncontrolled movement of the bonnet, loosen the bonnet by
following the instructions in the next step. Do not remove a stuck bonnet by pulling on it with equipment that can stretch
or store energy in any other manner. The sudden release of stored energy can cause uncontrolled movement of the bonnet.
Note
The following step also provides additional assurance that the valve body fluid pressure has been relieved.
CAUTION
Avoid damaging the seating surface caused by the valve plug and stem assembly dropping from the bonnet (key 1, figure
18) after being lifted part way out. When lifting the bonnet, temporarily install a valve stem locknut on the valve stem. This
locknut will prevent the valve plug and stem assembly from dropping out of the bonnet.
If the cage starts to lift with the bonnet, tap it with a plastic mallet, or other soft material, to be sure it stays in the valve.
4. Hex nuts (key 16, figure 19, 20, or 21) or cap screws (not shown) attach the bonnet (key 1, figure 18) to the valve
body (key 1, figure 19, 20, or 21). Loosen these nuts or cap screws approximately 3 mm (1/8 inch). Then loosen the
body‐to‐bonnet gasketed joint by either rocking the bonnet or prying between the bonnet and valve. Work the
prying tool around the bonnet until the bonnet loosens. If no fluid leaks from the joint, remove the nuts or cap
screws completely and carefully lift the bonnet off the valve.
5. Remove the locknut and separate the valve plug and stem from the bonnet. Set the parts on a protective surface to
prevent damage to gasket or seating surfaces.
6. Remove the bonnet gasket (key 10, figure 19, 20, or 21) and cover the opening in the valve to protect the gasket
surface and prevent foreign material from getting into the valve body cavity.
7. Remove the packing flange nuts, packing flange, upper wiper, and packing follower (keys 5, 3, 12, and 13, figure
18). Carefully push out all the remaining packing parts from the valve side of the bonnet using a rounded rod or
other tool that will not scratch the packing box wall. Clean the packing box and the metal packing parts.
8. Inspect the valve stem threads and packing box surfaces for any sharp edges which might cut the packing.
Scratches or burrs could cause packing box leakage or damage to the new packing. If the surface condition cannot
be improved by light sanding, replace the damaged parts by following the appropriate steps in the Trim
Maintenance procedure.
9. Remove the cover protecting the valve body cavity and install a new bonnet gasket (key 10, figure 19 through 21),
making sure the gasket seating surfaces are clean and smooth. Place the valve plug and stem into the valve body,
making sure it is properly centered on the seat ring. Then slide the bonnet over the stem and onto the stud bolts
(key 16, figure 19, 20, or 21) or onto the valve body cavity if cap screws (not shown) will be used instead.

TYPICAL (DOUBLE) ARRANGEMENT
The bolting procedures in step 10 include‐‐but are not limited to‐‐ensuring that bolting threads are clean, and evenly tightening
the cap screws, or the nuts onto the studs, in a crisscross pattern. Tightening one cap screw or nut may loosen an adjacent cap
screw or nut. Repeat the crisscross tightening pattern several times until each cap screw or nut is tight and the body‐to‐bonnet
seal is made.
10. Install bolting, using accepted bolting procedures during tightening, so that the body‐to‐bonnet joint will
withstand test pressures and application service conditions. Use the bolt torques in table 3 as guidelines.
11. Install new packing and the metal packing box parts according to the appropriate arrangement in figure 3, 4, or 5.
Place a smooth‐edged pipe over the valve stem and gently tap each soft packing part into the packing box.
12. Slide the packing follower, upper wiper, and packing flange (keys 13, 12, and 3, figure 18) into position. Lubricate
the packing flange studs (key 4, figure 18) and the faces of the packing flange nuts (key 5, figure 18). Install the
packing flange nuts.
13. For spring‐loaded PTFE V‐ring packing, tighten the packing flange nuts until the shoulder on the packing follower
(key 13, figure 18) contacts the bonnet.
For graphite packing, tighten the packing flange nuts to the maximum recommended torque shown in table 4.
Then, loosen the packing flange nuts, and retighten them to the recommended minimum torque shown in table 4.
For other packing types, tighten the packing flange nuts alternately in small equal increments until one of the nuts
reaches the minimum recommended torque shown in table 4. Then, tighten the remaining flange nut until the
packing flange is level and at a 90‐degree angle to the valve stem.
For ENVIRO‐SEAL or HIGH‐SEAL live‐loaded packing, refer to the note at the beginning of Packing Maintenance.
14. Mount the actuator on the valve assembly and reconnect the actuator and valve stem according to the procedure
in the appropriate actuator instruction manual.

For C‐seal construction, see the appropriate C‐seal sections in this instruction manual.
Except where indicated, key numbers in this section are referenced in figure 19 for standard NPS 1 through 6
constructions, figure 20 for Whisper Trim III cage detail, figure 21 for the NPS 8 ED valve, and figures 22 and 23 for
WhisperFlo trim. Some valve plug constructions require three piston rings (key 6).
Disassembly
1. Remove the actuator and the bonnet according to steps 1 through 5 of the Replacing Packing procedure in the
Maintenance section.
WARNING
Avoid personal injury or property damage from valve or packing leakage.
The graphite piston rings in an ED or EAD valve are brittle and in two pieces. Use care to avoid damage to the piston rings
caused by dropping or rough handling.
Any damage to the gasket sealing surfaces could cause the valve to leak. The surface finish of the valve stem (key 7) is
critical for making a good packing seal. The inside surface of the cage or cage/baffle assembly (key 3), or cage retainer (key
31), is critical for smooth operation of the valve plug and for making a seal with the piston rings (key 6). The seating
surfaces of the valve plug (key 2) and seat ring (key 9) are critical for proper shutoff. Protect these parts accordingly while
disassembling the trim.
2. Remove the packing flange nuts, packing flange, upper wiper, and packing follower (keys 5, 3, 12, and 13, figure
18). Carefully push out all the remaining packing parts from the valve side of the bonnet using a rounded rod or
other tool that will not scratch the packing box wall. Clean the packing box and the metal packing parts.
3. Inspect the valve stem threads and packing box surfaces for any sharp edges which might cut the packing.
Scratches or burrs could cause packing box leakage or damage to the new packing. If the surface condition cannot
be improved by light sanding, replace the damaged parts.

4. Remove the load ring (key 26) from an NPS 8 ED valve, or the cage adaptor (key 4) from any restricted‐trim valve
through NPS 4, and wrap it for protection.
5. On an NPS 6 ED valve with a Whisper Trim III cage or WhisperFlo trim, remove the bonnet spacer (key 32) and
bonnet gasket (key 10) on top of the spacer. Then on any construction with a cage retainer (key 31), remove the
cage retainer and its associated gaskets. A Whisper Trim III and WhisperFlo cage retainer has two 3/8 inch‐16 UNC
tappings in which screws or bolts can be installed for lifting.
6. Remove the cage or cage/baffle assembly (key 3) and the associated gaskets (keys 10, 11, and 12), and shim (key
51 for the ED valve, key 27 for the EAD valve). If the cage is stuck in the valve, use a rubber mallet to strike the
exposed portion of the cage at several points around its circumference.
7. Remove the seat ring or liner (key 9), seat ring gasket (key 13), and the seat ring adaptor (key 5) and adaptor gasket
(key 14) where used in a restricted‐trim seat ring construction.
8. Inspect parts for wear or damage which would prevent proper operation of the valve. Replace or repair trim parts
according to the following procedure for Lapping Metal Seats or other valve plug maintenance procedures as
appropriate.
Lapping Metal Seats
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the ENVIRO‐SEAL bellows seal bonnet assembly, do not attempt to lap the metal seating surfaces. The
design of the assembly prevents rotation of the stem and any forced lapping rotation will damage internal components of
the ENVIRO‐SEAL Bellows Seal bonnet.
With metal‐seat constructions, seating surfaces of the valve plug and seat ring or liner (keys 2 and 9, figure 19, 20, or
21) can be lapped for improved shutoff. (Deep nicks should be machined out rather than ground out.) Use a good
quality lapping compound of a mixture of 280 to 600‐grit. Apply compound to the bottom of the valve plug.
Assemble the valve to the extent that the cage and the cage retainer and bonnet spacer (if used) are in place and the
bonnet is bolted to the valve. A simple handle can be made from a piece of strap iron locked to the valve plug stem
with nuts. Rotate the handle alternately in each direction to lap the seats. After lapping, remove the bonnet and clean
the seat surfaces. Completely assemble as described in the Assembly portion of the Trim Maintenance procedure and
test the valve for shutoff. Repeat the lapping procedure if leakage is still excessive.

Valve Plug Maintenance
Except where indicated, key numbers in this section are referenced in figure 19 for standard NPS 1 through 6
constructions, figure 20 for Whisper Trim III detail, figure 21 for the NPS 8 ED valve, and figures 22 and 23 for
WhisperFlo trim. Some valve plug constructions require three piston rings (key 6).
CAUTION
To avoid the piston ring (key 6) not sealing properly, be careful not to scratch the surfaces of the ring groove in the valve
plug or any of the surfaces of the replacement ring.
1. With the valve plug (key 2) removed according to the Disassembly portion of the Trim Maintenance procedure,
proceed as appropriate:
For the carbon‐filled PTFE piston ring, The ring is split in one place. If there is visible damage, spread the ring slightly
and remove it from the groove in the valve plug.
To install a carbon‐filled PTFE piston ring, Spread the ring apart slightly at the split and install it over the stem and
into the groove in the valve plug. The open side must face along the stem, depending on flow directions, as shown
in view A of figure 19.
For the graphite piston ring, The ring can be easily removed since it is in two pieces. A new graphite piston ring is
furnished as a complete ring. Use a vise with smooth or taped jaws to break this replacement ring into halves. Place
the new ring in the vise so that the jaws will compress the ring into an oval. Slowly compress the ring until it snaps
on both sides. If one side snaps first, do not try to tear or cut the other side. Instead, keep compressing the ring until
the other side snaps. Be sure to match the broken ends when installing the ring in the valve plug groove.
CAUTION
Never reuse an old stem or adaptor with a new valve plug. Using an old stem or adaptor with a new plug requires drilling a
new pin hole in the stem (or adaptor in case an ENVIRO‐SEAL bellows seal bonnet is being used). This drilling weakens the
stem or adaptor and may cause failure in service. However, a used valve plug may be reused with a new stem or adaptor.
Note
For plain bonnets and style 1 extension bonnets, the valve plug (key 2), valve stem (key 7), and pin (key 8) are available completely
assembled. Refer to the Key 2, 7, and 8 Valve Plug and Stem Assembly tables in the Parts List.
2. To replace the valve stem (key 7), drive out the pin (key 8). Unscrew the valve plug from the stem or adaptor.
3. To replace the adaptor (key 24, figure 18) on ENVIRO‐SEAL bellows seal bonnets, place the plug stem assembly and
valve plug in a soft‐jaw chuck or other type of vise so that the jaws grip a portion of the valve plug that is not a
seating surface. Drive out the pin (key 36, figure 18). Reverse the plug stem assembly and valve plug in the soft‐jaw
chuck or vise. Grip the flat areas on the valve stem just below the threads for the actuator/stem connection.
Unscrew the valve plug/adaptor assembly (key 24, figure 18) from the valve stem assembly (key 20, figure 18).
4. Screw the new stem or adaptor into the valve plug. Tighten to the torque value given in table 5. Refer to table 5 to
select the proper drill size. Drill through the stem or adaptor, using the hole in the valve plug as a guide. Remove
any chips or burrs and drive in a new pin to lock the assembly.
5. For ENVIRO‐SEAL bellows seal bonnets, grip the flats of the stem extending out of the top of the bellows shroud
with a soft‐jaw chuck or other type of vise. Screw the valve plug/adaptor assembly onto the valve stem. Tighten as
