1. Introduction
This manual contains sufficient information to allow trained maintenance personnel to properly repair types 1890, 1892, 2850, and 2852 pressure relief valves.
All of the assembly and disassembly instructions refer to types with plain screwed caps. When repairing types with either open or packed lifting levers, refer to Section 3 which describes the removal of the appropriate lever assembly.
If a valve repair requires replacement parts, only factory-supplied components shall be used. Use of parts from other than the original manufacturer will lead to potentially dangerous operating condi­tions. If faced with repairs exceeding the scope of this manual, contact the Farris Factory.

2. Disassembly
When a valve is first received in the shop, it should be given a visual inspection to note its condition when removed from service. The valve should then be carefully dismantled. Proper facilities and tools should be available. At each stage in the dis­mantling process, visually inspect all parts of the valve for evidence of wear and corrosion. If parts are worn, replace them.
Series 2850 and 2852 (Fig. 2.1)
1. Mount valve vertically in a vise utilizing the flats in the body.
2. Remove wire seal. Unscrew cap by turning counterclockwise. Remove cap gasket. (For open lever and packed lever cap construction, refer to the section on Lifting Lever Assemblies.)
3. Measure the distance from the top of the spring adjusting screw to the top of the bonnet. Use this measurement when reassembling the valve to approximately duplicate the original set pressure.
4. Loosen the jam nut.
5. Relieve the spring compression by turning the spring adjusting screw counterclockwise.
6. Remove blowdown ring lock screw and gasket.
7. Thread a pipe into the outlet and turn the bon­net counterclockwise. Lift the bonnet off to expose internal subassembly.
8. Remove the upper spring button, spring and lower spring button from the stem.
9. Remove the stem shoulder. Stem shoulder ring may be a one-piece clip or split rings. Be care­ful during disassembly; split rings may fall free. Current valves do not use a stem shoulder and split ring. The stem shoulder is an integral part of the stem.
10. Lift the stem with the disc attached. If desired,
remove the grooved pin and lift the stem from the disc.
11. Unscrew the blowdown ring from the body.
12. Clean all parts and threaded surfaces thor­oughly. Replace all gaskets. Lap the body seat and disc surfaces. (See the section on Lapping for details.)

5. (1890 and 1892 only) Measure and record the body seat height. Remove the same thickness of material from the bottom face of the guide as that has been lapped off from the body seat.
6. Carefully clean compound from all parts. Failure to do so may foul the seat and disc surfaces. When reinstalling the parts in the valve and/or in assembling the disc in the guide, be careful not to scratch or score either surface.
7. Check Appendix A for critical seat dimensions. Replace any parts that have dimensions smaller than the mini­mum required.
4. Lapping Procedure
(For metal seats only; does not apply to O-ring seat seal valve)
1. The finish on the body seat and disc are critical to seat tightness. After the parts have been cleaned, both parts should be lapped to remove all blemishes and score marks. This can be done on an automatic lapping machine or by hand using a cast iron lapping block or Pyrex lapping glass which is known to have a perfectly flat surface.
PYREX LAPPING PLATES
PART NO. MAT. CODE SIZE THICKNESS
7688 164 1-1/2 l/4 7689 164 2-1/4 3/8
2. Use Farris 1200 lapping compound. When lapping the
disc, operate with a light figure eight motion over entire block surface. In this way complete contact will be made. With this motion the complete surface of the part will be evenly lapped and you will avoid wearing a groove in the block.
3. Lap the disc until all blemishes and score marks have been removed. As the figure eight motion is executed, frequently lift the disc away from the block to get a fresh bite on the compound. Most importantly, do not contaminate compounds with dirt. Store lapping blocks and lapping glass in a clean, dust-free area.
4. Follow the same procedure for lapping the body seat. When lapping bodies, the body can be placed on a table and a lapping block placed on the body. Be sure that the lapping block does not tip over the side of the body (which would cause rounding of the edges). Use a light, rapid figure eight stroke, lifting the block from the body occasionally.

5. Assembly
Series 2850 and 2852
1. Refer to Figure 2.1 for construction details.
2. Visually inspect all parts to be assembled. Replace gas­kets, O-rings, and any parts that are worn. Lubricate all threaded and mating surfaces with Bostik Never Seez (or equivalent).
3. Examine seat of body and disc for any marks that may cause leakage. Refer to the section on Lapping if relap­ping is necessary.
4. (O-ring Seat Only) Refer to Fig. 5.1. Position the disc on a flat surface with the O-ring groove facing up. Insert O-ring into the disc groove. Insert the O-ring retainer on the disc, ensuring the O-ring is centered. Lock the O-ring and retainer to the disk with the hex nut.
5. Screw blowdown ring onto the body.
6. Place stem into the disc. Drive grooved pin through the
disc into the stem if grooved pin has been disassem­bled.
7. Place disc stem assembly over the body, making sure
that the disc and body seats are aligned.
8. Place stem shoulder over stem shoulder ring.
9. Install lower spring button, spring and upper spring but-
ton on stem.
10. Place bonnet over the assembled parts and screw
down onto the body.
11. Thread the jam nut onto the spring adjusting screw.
12. Thread spring adjusting screw into bonnet to the posi-
tion recorded during disassembly.
13. With a screwdriver, turn blowdown ring up until it
touches the disc. Then back off the number of notch­es indicated below.
14. Screw blowdown ring lock screw into bonnet. Adjust
blowdown ring lock screw to engage blowdown ring notches without jamming the ring in its tightened posi­tion.
15. The valve is now ready to be removed for testing.

Series 1890 and 1892
1. Refer to Figure 2.2 for construction details.
2. Visually inspect all parts to be assembled. Replace all gaskets. Lubricate all threaded and mating surfaces with Bostik Never Seez (or equivalent).
3. Examine seat of body and disc for any marks or surface imperfections that may reduce seat tightness. If relap­ping is necessary, refer to the section on Lapping.
4a.(Metal Seat Only) Loosely assemble body and guide.
Insert disc in guide and verify that guide turndown from disc contact is 1/16 to 1/4 turn. For set pressure under 100 psig, 1/8 turndown maximum is required. Remove disc.
4b.(O-Ring Seat Only) It is recommended that
O-ring/disc subassembly be replaced rather than attempt removal of retaining ring. Do not use a metal seat guide in O-ring seat seal valves.
5. Tighten guide to body with 1/4” dia. bar inserted
through
guide exit holes with approximate torque of 20 ft. Ibs.
6. Insert disc and install lift stop. Verify that available disc lift is greater than .085”.
7. Place stem shoulder over retaining ring. Install spring and spring buttons on stem and insert entire assembly into bonnet/spring adjusting screw subassembly. The lower subassembly with body gasket can then be assembled and tightened to approximately 40 ft. Ibs. torque.
8. Hand tighten adjusting screw until slight spring com-
pression occurs.

WATER - Before starting the seat tightness test, the outlet body bowl shall be filled with water, and the valve shall be allowed to stabilize with no visible flow from the valve out­let. The valve shall be observed for 1 minute at the test pressure. There shall be no visible leakage at the valve outlet.
Soft Seated Valves:
Soft seated valves shall be tested at 95% of set pressure when set above 100 psig; they shall be tested at 5 psig below set pressure when the set pressure is less than or equal to 100 psig.
AIR - There shall be no leakage (zero bubbles) using the test method outlined above.
STEAM and WATER - There shall be no visible leakage at the valve outlet.
2. If any valve fails to meet leakage requirements, it shall be reworked.
3. Assemble appropriate cap construction after leak tight­ness has been verified. If valve type is open lever, no back pressure test is required. Plain cap and packed lever valves must be back pressure tested as outlined in the next section.
BACK PRESSURE TEST
1. This test applies to all valves designed for discharge to a closed system (plain or packed lever cap construc­tion) with inlet sizes larger than 1 nps.
2. The secondary pressure zone of the valve shall be test­ed with air or other suitable gas at a pressure of at least 30 psi. The valve should be pressurized at the outlet with shop air or other means. A soap solution or other suitable solution shall be applied to all connections which are potential leakage paths (i.e., body/bonnet connection, cap/bonnet connection, packed lever assembly/cap connection). No leakage is acceptable.
3. If leakage is detected at any location, the valve shall be reworked.
6. Setting & Testing
TESTING AND SETTING PROCEDURE
1. Mount the valve on the test stand. Use air as the test medium for air, gas and vapor or flashing service appli­cations. Set valves for saturated steam service on satu­rated steam. Valves for steam service set with air should include temperature compensation. The name­plate provides “Cold Differential Test Pressure.” Set valves for liquid service on water.
2. Hold the stem tightly and tighten (turn clockwise) the spring adjusting screw to increase the spring force. Make sure the stem does not rotate while loading the spring.
3. Slowly raise the test drum pressure and observe the opening point. The set pressure on air or steam is the “pop point” while on water it is the first continuous flow.
4. If necessary reduce the test drum pressure and adjust
the spring adjusting screw. Repeat this until the valve opens at the required pressure, designated as “Cold
Differential Test Pressure.” At the desired setting, torque
the jam nut to 25 ft. lbs. and assemble cap and gasket for tightness testing. Check set point once more after locking jam nut.
Never adjust the spring setting when the pressure under the valve is near its popping point, as the body seat and disc seat might score and/or gall. Always lower the pressure in the valve at least 25 percent below popping pressure before making adjustments. This will put a loading on the seat surfaces, and pre­vent rotation and damage.
SEAT TIGHTNESS TESTING
WARNING: The valve must be checked for seat leak-
age after the set pressure has been checked. Excessive leakage could lead to fouled or inoperable valves, serious product loss and could be hazardous to personnel and equipment.
1. The valve can be tested for tightness on the test stand
by increasing vessel pressure to the required test pres­sure and observing the valve outlet for evidence of leakage. The following is an overview of the test proce­dures used.
Metal Seated Valves:
Metal seated valves shall be tested at 90% of set pressure when the set pressure is greater than 50 psig; they shall be tested at 5 psig below set pressure when the set pres­sure is less than or equal to 50 psig.
AIR - A 5/16 O.D. x 0.035 wall thickness copper tube or equivalent immersed no more than 1/2 deep in water shall be connected to the valve outlet. See Figure 6.1. Seal all other potential leakage paths with suitable fixtures (i.e., cap, plugs) so that seat leakage can be detected at the outlet. Before starting the bubble count, test pressure shall be applied for a minimum of 1 minute. The valve shall then be observed for leakage for at least 1 minute. The leakage rate shall not exceed 40 bubbles per minute.
STEAM - Test pressure shall be applied for 3 minutes before the seat tightness test. The valve shall be observed for leakage for at least 1 minute. There shall be no visible or audible leakage at the valve outlet.
