WARNING
Avoid personal injury and property damage from ignition of process fluid caused by sparks from ceramic trim. Do not use
ceramic trim where the process fluid is unstable or if it is an explosive mixture (such as ether and air).
WARNING
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 either the valve body rating or the mating pipe flange joint rating. To avoid such
injury or damage, provide a relief valve for overpressure protection as required by government or accepted industry codes
andgoodengineeringpractices.
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 a t the beginning of the Maintenance section in this
instruction manual.

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. To avoid possible personal injury and because
some valve/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 Process Management sales office.

Instruction Manual
D101554X012
WARNING
The valve drive shaft is not necessarily grounded to the pipeline when installed. Personal injury or property damage could
result from an explosion caused by a discharge of static electricity from valve components if the process fluid or the
atmosphere around the valve is flammable. If the atmosphere around the valve or the process fluid is flammable,
electrically bond the drive shaft to the valve.
Note
Standard PTFE packing is composed of a partially conductive carbon-filled PTFE female adaptor with PTFE V-ring packing. Standard
graphite packing is composed of all conductive graphite ribbon packing. Alternate shaft-to-valve body bonding is available for
hazardous service areas where the standard packing is not sufficient to bond the shaft to t he valve (see the following step).
Attach the optional bonding strap assembly (key 131, figure 3) to the valve drive shaft (key 6) with the clamp (key 130,
figure 3) and connect the other end of the bonding strap assembly to the valve body with the cap screw (key 23).
1. If the valve is to be stored before installation, protect theflangematingsurfacesandkeepthevalvebodycavitydry
and free of foreign material.
2. Install a three-valve bypass around the control valve assembly if continuous operation will be necessary during
inspection and maintenance of the valve.
3. The valve is normally shipped as part of a control valve assembly, with an actuator mounted on the valve. If the
valve and actuator have been purchased separately or if the actuator has been removed, mount the actuator
according to the Actuator Mounting section and the appropriate actuator instruction manual.
4. Standard flow direction is with the seal protector ring (key 3) facing upstream.
5. Install the valve in a horizontal or vertical pipeline with the drive shaft in a horizontal position.
CAUTION
Do not allow the valve to be installed in the pipeline with the drive shaft in the vertical position because of excessive wear
to valve component parts.
6. The actuator can be right- or left-hand mounted with the shaft in a horizontal orientation as shown in figure 1. If
necessary, refer to the appropriate actuator instruction manual for actuator installation and adjustment
procedures.
CAUTION
Ensure the valve and adjacent pipelines are free of foreign material that could damage the valve seating surfaces.
7. Be certain the valve and adjacent pipelines are free of any foreign material that could damage the valve sealing
surfaces.
8. Be sure the pipeline flanges are in line with each other.
Installing V150 and V300 Valves
1. Install the V150 and V300 valve using studs (keys 32 and 33, not shown) and nuts to connect the valve flanges to
the pipeline flanges. The seal protector r ing (key 3) end of the valve requires longer line flange studs (key 32) than
standard. Do not use standard-length line flange studs for the seal protector ring end of the valve.

2. See table 2 and figure 2 for length of studs for the seal protector ring end of V150 and V300 valves. Lubricate the
studs with anti-seize lubricant.
3. Insert flat-sheet line flange gaskets (or spiral-wound gaskets with compression-controlling center rings) that are
compatible with the flowing media.
4. Connect pressure lines to the actuator as indicated in the actuator instruction manual. When an auxiliary manual
actuator is used with a power actuator, install a bypass valve on the power actuator (if one is not supplied) for use
during manual operation.
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.
If the valve has ENVIRO-SEAL live-loaded packing installed, this initial re-adjustment will probably not be required. See
ENVIRO-SEAL Packing System for Rotary Valves instruction manual (D101643X012)
for packing instructions.
Installing V200 Valves
Stud length dimensions are shown in figure 4 for the seal protector ring end of the valve. For V200, CL600, the
dimensionfromthecenterlineofthevalveboretothemountingflangefaceislargerthanaCL150or300valve.
1. Install the V200 valve using long studs (key 32, figure 4) to connect the two pipeline flanges. Refer to figure 4 for
the size of studs required. Lubricate the studs with anti-seize lubricant.
2. Install two studs in the flanges before you place the valve in the line. Place the two studs so they will contact the
line-centering notches at the bottom of the valve body.
3. Insert flat-sheet line flange gaskets (or spiral-wound gaskets with compression-controlling center rings) that are
compatible with the process fluid.
4. Place the valve on the two studs. Install all remaining studs. Measure carefully to be sure the valve is centered on the

Vee-Ball Valves
January 2015
Maintenance
Valve parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected and replaced as necessary. The frequency of inspection
and replacement depends upon the severity of service conditions.
Key numbers in this procedure are shown in figures 24, 25, and 26, unless otherwise noted.
WARNING
The Vee-ball closes with a shearing, cutting motion, which could result in personal injury. To avoid injury, keep hands,
tools, and other objects away from the Vee-ball while stroking the valve.
Avoid personal injury from sudden release of process pressure. Before performing any maintenance operations:
D Do not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
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.
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 power 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 Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any maintenanceoperations.
D The valve packing area 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.
D Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
Packing Maintenance
Key numbers in this procedure are shown in figures 24, 25, and 26, unless otherwise noted. A detailed view of the
packing is also shown in figure 5.
If the valve is equipped with the ENVIRO-SEAL Packing System, refer to:
D the separate ENVIRO-SEAL Packing System for Rotary Valves instruction manual (D101643X012)
instructions, and
D the Parts List section of this manual for retrofit kits, parts kits, and individual parts.
If the packing is relatively new and tight on the drive shaft (key 6), and if tightening the packing follower nuts does not
stop leakage, it is possible that the drive shaft is worn or nicked so that a seal cannot be made. If the leakage comes
from the outside diameter of the packing, it is possible that the leakage is caused by nicks or scratches on the packing
box wall. Inspect the drive shaft and packing box wall for nicks or scratches while performing the following procedure.
Replacing Packing
Whenusingthisprocedure,itisrecommended that the actuator not be removed from the valve while the valve is still
in the pipeline or between flanges. Valve/actuator adjustments must be made with the valve out of the pipeline. Refer
to the Determining Closed Position portion of the Actuator Mounting section.

Disassembly
WARNING
Observe the steps in the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section.
1. Isolatethecontrolvalvefromthelinepressure,releasepressure from both sides of t he valve body, and drain the
process media from both sides of the valve. If using a power actuator, shut off all pressure lines to the power
actuator, release pressure from the actuator, and disconnect the pressure lines from the actuator. Use lock-out
procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in effect while you are working on the equipment.
2. Remove line bolting, remove the control valve from the pipeline, and place the valve/actuator assembly on a flat
surface with the seal protector ring facing up.
3. Remove the actuator cover. Take note of the orientation of the actuator with respect to the valve body and the
lever orientation with respect to the valve drive shaft (see figure 6).
WARNING
When the actuator is removed from the valve, the ball/shaft assembly may suddenly rotate, with a shearing, cutting
motion, which could result in personal injury. To avoid injury, carefully rotate the ball to a stable position after the actuator
is removed.
CAUTION
When removing the actuator from the valve, do not use a hammer or similar tool to drive the lever or actuator off the valve
shaft. Driving the lever or actuator off the valve shaft could damage the ball, seal, and valve.
If necessary, use a puller to remove the lever or actuator from the valve shaft. It is okay to tap the puller screw lightly to
loosen lever or actuator, but hitting the screw with excessive force could damage the ball, seal, and valve.
4. Remove the clamped lever (do not loosen the actuator turnbuckle adjustment), remove the actuator mounting
screws and nuts (keys 23 and 24), and remove the actuator. (If necessary, refer to the actuator instruction manual
for assistance.)
5. If applicable, remove the bonding strap assembly before attempting to remove the packing (see figure 3).
6. Remove the packing follower nuts and packing follower (keys 17 and 20). For alloy packing constructions, the
packing follower (key 17) and a separate packing flange (key 40) must be removed if present.
If the valve is equipped with the ENVIRO-SEAL packing system, refer to the ENVIRO-SEAL Packing System for
Valves instruction manual (D101643X012)
for disassembly.

D It might be necessary to remove the HD metal seal by carefully tapping it with a soft punch and hammer.
Take care not to damage the seal protector ring.
D NPS 3 through 12 v alves, if the seal is difficult to push out, it is recommended that a seal removal plate be
used to press the HD metal seal out of the seal protector ring. Refer to figure 12 for dimensions of the seal
removal plate.
D NPS 10 and 12 valves with an attenuator only: Remove the retaining ring (key 41) in the seal protector ring.
This retaining ring is an octagonal-shaped support wire. To remove the retaining ring, find one of the free
ends of the ring. Use a screwdriver or similar tool to pry inward and upward until the ring is removed.
3. Inspect the gasket and sealing surfaces on the valve body (key 1 or 1A), the seal protector ring (key 3), Vee-ball (key
2), and the retaining ring (key 41 for NPS 10 and 12 valves with an attenuator only). Be sure the sealing surfaces are
not damaged.
4. If replacement of the ball, shafts (keys 6 or 9), or bearings (key 10) is needed, proceed to the Bearing and Ball
Maintenance procedure. If only the seal is to be replaced, proceed to the Assembly steps below.
Assembly
Refer to figures 8, 9, and 10 for key number locations during seal installation. Valve key number locations are shown in
figures 24, 25, and 26.
1. Thoroughly clean all parts that are to be re-used and obtain replacement parts. Be sure that all sealing surfaces are
in good condition without scratches or wear. If the valve has been installed between line flanges and the flange
studs and nuts have been tightened, always replace the gasket (key 15) with a new gasket.
2. To help ensure correct side-to-side centering of the ball (key 2) on the seal (key 11), make sure the ball is closed
while you install the seal or flow ring and seal protector ring. Insert a screwdriver, pry bar, or similar tool between
thelowerearoftheballandthevalvebody(seefigure6).
3. Usetheprytomovetheballtightlyagainstthebearingontheactuatorsideofthevalve.Becareful,excessiveforce
may damage the ball. Keep the ball in that position until you have completed seal or flow ring installation. Check
the ball's position periodically, and re-center if necessary, during lever assembly and packing adjustments.
WARNING
The Vee-Ball closes with a shearing, cutting motion, which could result in personal injury. To avoid injury or property
damage, keep hands, tools, and other objects away from the Vee-Ball while stroking the valve.
4. Install the seal.
CAUTION
Due to the Vee-ball shape, take care to never completely rotate either the front skirted edge or the circular back edge of the
ball out of the ball seal as the seal could be damaged.

D Install the seal protector ring (key 3) into the valve body. Now go to step 5 in this procedure.
Installing flat metal seals:
a. Install 12 shims in the valve and install the flat metal seal on top of the shims.
b. Install the spring seal (key 13) on the flat metal seal (key 11) with the convex side of the spring seal facing the
ball.
c. Install the seal protector ring, and install the protector ring screws and washers (keys 21 and 22). Tighten the
screws.
d. Add or remove shims under the ball seal as necessary to obtain zero ball seal deflection as accurately as possible.
Note
Zero ball seal deflection for a flat metal seal is the point at which the addition of one 0.13 mm (0.005 inch) thick shim causes
contact between the ball and ball seal to be broken. Hold the parts tightly together when determining zero deflection, or improper
zero deflection might result.
e. After zero deflection is reached, remove the seal protec tor ring, spring seal, seal and 4 shims. Final assembly of
the control valve should not exceed a maximum of 9 shims for zero deflection. If more than 9 shims are required,
contact your Emerson Process Management sales office.
f. Install the gasket (key 15) on the valve body.
g. Install the seal protector ring (key 3) into the valve body. Now go to step 5 in this procedure.
Installing HD metal seals:
Note
The older and newer designs of the NPS 1 and 1-1/2 seal protector ring are functionally the same, but are different lengths and not
interchangeable. All NPS 1 and 1-1/2 sizes of V150 and V300 valves are the newer design. The change in seal protector ring length
occurred in the 1992/1993 timeframe and affects NPS 1 and 1-1/2 V200 valves only. To determine whether you have the older or
newer design, measure the length of the seal protector ring (key 3, figure 26) from its pipeline flange mating surface to its
opposite end. Compare your measurement to those listed in figure 7.
a. For NPS 1 and 1-1/2 valves: The older and newer designs of the NPS 1 and 1-1/2 seal protector rings are
functionally the same, but are different lengths and not interchangeable. Refer to figure 7 for protector ring
dimensions.
D Install the wave spring (key 13) onto the ball seal.
16
D Lubricate and install the radial seal (key 37) onto the ball seal (key 11). Make sure the open side of the radial
seal faces away from the ball.
D Push the ball seal assembly into the seal protector ring (key 3).
D Go to step 5 in this procedure.
Instruction Manual
D101554X012
b. For all NPS 3 through 8 valves and NPS 10 and 12 valves without attenuator:
D Lubricate and install the radial seal (key 37) into the appropriate groove in the seal protector ring making
