Principle of Operation
ACE95 Series tank blanketing valves are pilot operated, activated by the diaphragm, and control the vapor
space pressure over a stored liquid. The unit is controlled by a ve ry large diaphragm actuator. The oversized actuator offers high sensitivity to changes in tank

pressure. When a stor age tank cools and tank vapors
condense, ACE95 Series valves replace the condensing vapors with an inert gas to prevent internal tank
pressure from decreasing. P ositive tank pressure
prevents outside air from contaminating the product and
reduces the possibility of atmospheric pressure collapsing the tank. As demand is satisfied, the valve closes.

ACE95 Series valves respond to slight decreases in
internal tank pressure by opening and increasing the
flow rate of inert gas into the tank. When the tank’s
liquid level has been lowered to the desired point and
the vapor pressure set point is re-established, the valve
closes.
Installation and Startup
Personal injury , equipment damage, or
leakage due to escaping accumulated gas
or bursting of pressure-containing parts
may result if this gas blanketing system
is over pressured or installed where
service conditions could exceed the
limits given in the Specifications section
and on the appropriate nameplate, or
where conditions exceed any ratings of
the adjacent piping or piping connections.
T o av oid such injury or damage, pro vide
pressure-relieving or pressure-limiting
devices (as required by Title 49, Part 192,
of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations,
by the National Fuel Gas Code Title 54 of
the National Fire Codes of the National
Fire Protection Agency , or by other
applicable codes) to prevent service
conditions from exceeding those limits.
Additionally , physical damage to the tank
blanketing system could result in personal injury and property damage due to
escaping accumulated gas. T o avoid such
injury and damage, install the tank
blanketing valve in a safe location.

This ACE95 Series valve was assembled and preset to
the customer specified pressure and set point. The
outlet pressure range of the valve is stamped on the
nameplate fastened to the upper actuator case. The gas
blanketing set point is the only adjustable feature on
this unit.
1. Use qualified personnel when installing, operating,
and maintaining valves. Before installing, inspect the
valve and tubing for any shipment damage or foreign
material that may have collected. Make certain the
body interior is clean and the pipelines are free of
foreign material. Apply pipe compound only to the male
pipe threads with a screwed body, or use suitable line
gaskets and good bolting practices with a flanged body.
2. Inspect the nameplate on the upper actuator case.
It displays the model number , serial number , a b lanketing gas supply pressure range, and the maximum inlet
pressure and set pressure. These m ust agree with the
system that you are blank eting. The serial number will
be needed in any communication with your Fisher Sales
Representative or the Fisher Sales Office.
3. Clean the gas blanketing supply lines of all dirt and
foreign material before connecting them to the ACE95
Series tank blanketing valve.

4. The valve must be mounted so the actuator case
is horizontal. The v alve should be mounted abo ve the
tank. Three connections are required: a) blanketing gas
supply to valve, b) valve outlet to tank, and c) sensing
line to tank.
Piping Considerations
Undersized piping may inadequately
deliver blanketing gas at the specified
inlet pressure under full flow conditions.
This may result in unacceptable performance under high demand conditions.
Unnecessarily long or restricted outlet
piping may result in poor set point
control.
Inlet Piping
The blanketing gas supply line should be equipped with
a Number 100 mesh strainer to remove dirt and pipe
scale. Inlet piping must be sized to adequately deliver
4
ACE95 Series
blanketing gas at the specified inlet pressure under full
flow conditions.
Outlet Piping
Type ACE95 or Type ACE95Sr valve outlet is piped into
the tank vapor space. Outlet piping must be full size
and self-draining to the tank. The valve should be
situated above and as close as possible to the tank
vapor space for best performance.
Sensing Line
The sensing line should be 1/2-inch tubing or pipe,
must slope toward the tank, and should not contain low
points (or traps) that could catch liquid. The sensing line
must enter the tank above the liquid level at a point that
senses the vapor space pressure and is free from
turbulence associated with tank nozzles or vents.
Note
Best control is obtained when both
connections to the tank are separate. If
the tank has only one available nozzle,
contact Fisher Controls for alternate
methods of installation. A single array
manifold is available for such situations.
order could result in inlet pressure being
applied to the actuator casing, potentially damaging it.
Startup
1. Open shut-off valves between the blanketing valve
and the tank (both sensing and outlet). See figure 4.
2. Slowly open the supply line shut-off valve (to the
blanketing valve) and leave it fully open.
3. Monitor the tank vapor space pressure.

Gauges and Shut-Off Valves
Inlet gas shut-off valves are desirable for servicing. If
this ACE95 Series tank blanketing valve was not
ordered with an inlet pressure gauge, it is advisable to
install a gauge between the inlet shut-off valve and the
blanketing valve.
Note
Safety considerations may dictate full
port shut-off valves between the tank and
blanketing valve, and at the valve inlet.

Adjustment
The set point of this unit is factory set. If an adjustment
is to be made, it should be done so in small increments
while the unit is supplying gas to the tank. T o change
the set point:
1. Unscrew and remove the actuator cap (key 1) from
the top of the spring case (key 7). See figure 5.
2. Loosen the lock nut (key 3) and turn the adjusting
screw (ke y 2) clockwise to r aise the set point. (T urning
the screw counter-clockwise lowers the set point.)
3. Observe the effects of the change.
4. When the adjustment is complete, tighten the lock
nut (key 3) and replace the actuator cap (key 1).
Always open the outlet valve before the
inlet valve. Operation in the reverse

Shutdown
Installation arrangements vary, but in any installation it
is important to open and close valves slowly and to
close the upstream shut-off valve first when shutting
down the system.
Diagnostics
Note
If a diagnostics pressure gauge was not
ordered with the unit, a pressure gauge
must be installed in the diagnostic port to
perform diagnostic analysis.
Diagnostics are an optional feature of the ACE95
Series Tank Blanketing v alves that aid in e v aluating
valve operation. The diagnostic analysis relies on the
relationship of pilot pressure and pressure in the main
valve chambers (see figure 3). The basic relationships
are as follows:

)REBMAHC
SUTATS
4. Determine the diagnostic pressure for the start to
open pressure of the main valve in the third column.
5. The fourth column displays the diagnostic pressure
for the full open pressure of the main valve.
There are four pressures involved in evaluating a valve:
actual inlet pressure, pressure to start opening pilot
valve , pressure to start opening main valv e, and
pressure to fully open main valve.
Actual Inlet Pressure: The gas pressure supplied to
the inlet of the valve. This is the maximum diagnostic
pressure.
Pressure to Start Opening Pilot V alve: The diagnostic
pressure drops to this value as the valve senses
decreasing tank pressure. The main v alve remains
closed at this pressure.
Pressure to Start Opening Main V alve: The diagnostic
pressure drops to this level as the tank pressure
decreases and reaches the valve set point. The pilot is
fully open at this pressure.
Pressure to Fully Open Main Valve: At this point, both
the main valve and pilot valve are fully open and
supplying gas to the tank.

In order to evaluate a valve, examine the valve nameplate to determine the Cv and inlet pressure range main
valve spring. The inlet pressure gauge indicates actual
pressure supplied to the valve.
Follow these steps and refer to the diagnostics tables
on the following pages to evaluate a valve under actual
operating conditions:
1. Select the table (tables 3 through 8) that corresponds to the Cv and inlet pressure range of your
valve.
2. Determine the actual valve operating inlet pressure
in the first column of the diagnostics table.
3. In the second column of the table, determine the
pressure of the pilot as it opens.
Maintenance
V alve parts are subject to normal wear and must be
inspected and replaced as necessary. The frequency of
inspection and replacement of parts depends on the
severity of service conditions and the requirements of
local, state, and federal regulations. Due to the care
Fisher Controls takes in meeting all manufacturing
requirements, use only replacement parts manufactured
or furnished by Fisher Controls.
All O-rings, gaskets, and seals should be lubricated
with a good grade of general purpose lubricant and
installed gently rather than forced into position. Approved lubricant, sealant, and adhesive are as follows:
#222
111
T ape
Lubricant: Dow Corning
Sealant: Loctite
PST #592, Teflon
Adhesive: Loctite
Be certain that nameplates are updated to accurately
indicate any field changes in equipment, materials,
service conditions, or pressure settings.
