Principle of Operation
The ball and machined body combine to create smooth transitioning flow geometry which enables efficient flow
through the valve. The drive shaft and follower shaft center the ball in the flow stream to minimize dynamic torque
and permit easy ball rotation.
The ball rotates counterclockwise out of the seal to a standard open rotation of 90 degrees. The ball is cammed into
the seal to create an effective seal. The drive linkage between the ball and shaft has been designed for minimal lost
motion using a “spline connection” on the shaft and ball.

Installation
Key numbers in installation procedures are shown in figure 18 unless otherwise indicated.
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
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.

WARNING
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 sales office
.
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 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 the valve.
1. If the valve is to be stored before installation, protect the buttweld ends and keep the valve body cavity dry and free
of foreign material.
2. 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.
3. Standard flow direction is forward flow, spherical face of the ball is upstream.
4. Install the valve in a horizontal pipeline with the drive shaft in the vertical position.
5. The actuator is counterclockwise to open with the shaft in a vertical 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.
6. Be certain the valve and adjacent pipelines are free of any foreign material that could damage the valve sealing
surfaces.
7. Be sure the pipelines are in line with each other.
8. Use accepted pipeline piping and welding practices when installing the valve in the pipeline.
9. Connect pressure lines to the actuator.
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.
10. Verify that gap “A”, in figure 4, is closed before pressurizing the pipeline.

CG
CAUTION
Care must be taken when lifting the valve/actuator assembly to ensure the accessories and tubing are not damaged in the
process. The entire NPS 14 assembly with accessories weighs approximately 3656 kg (8060 lb) and the entire NPS 16
assembly with accessories weighs approximately 3597 kg (7930 lb). Make sure to use appropriate lifting
straps/eyebolts/hoists capable of lifting this weight.
Lifting Valve/Actuator Assembly
To lift the assembly, insert 1-1/4-7 UNC swivel hoist rings into the four lifting hole locations on the outside diameter of
the bonnet flange. The lifting point must be high enough away from the top of the accessory mountings to prevent
damage to accessories or piping. The hbeam illustrated in figure 2 is adjustable axially along the pipe run in order to
lift at the center of gravity (CG) of the assembly. Two adjustable length chains on one side of the valve body ensure the
assembly is lifted vertically. Refer to the appropriate drawing for the CG of your assembly.
Lifting Actuator Only
WARNING
Do NOT attempt to lift the actuator while attached to the bonnet or valve body as this will damage components and could
cause bodily harm.
6
Page 7
Instruction Manual
D103565X012
To lift the actuator, choke two straps, one around the spring barrel and one around the air cylinder, and connect to an
adjustable chain leveler. The chain leveler ensures the actuator and bonnet mating surfaces are parallel prior to
removal or installation. Proper alignment of the actuator and bonnet is critical to prevent binding of the shaft and
actuator. If accessories are not removed prior to lifting, use care to keep straps or chains away from piping and
accessories.
Alternatively, if the four actuator lifting lugs are accessible, chains can be used to lift the actuator. Similarly, the
actuator and bonnet mating surfaces must remain parallel.
SS-264 Valve
September 2021
Lifting Bonnet Only
To lift the bonnet, insert 1-1/4-7 UNC swivel hoist rings into the four lifting hole locations on the outside diameter of
the bonnet flange. Use proper length, or adjustable chains to ensure the bonnet and valve body mating surfaces
remain parallel when hoisted.
Lifting Valve Only
To lift the valve, insert two 2-1/2-8 swivel hoist rings, diametrically opposed and on opposite sides of the valve body
run, into the bodytobonnet bolt circle. An alternative to the swivel hoist rings is to use an internal thread lifting ring
which can be threaded onto the existing 2-1/2-8 studs (key 10).
Lifting Ball/Shaft Assembly
To lift the ball/shaft assembly, install the lifting plate (GE48210) and 5/811x1.50 cap screw (not provided) as shown in
figure 3. Align the lifting plate edge with the keyway groove of the shaft; this will position the lifting end of the plate
over the ball. Torque the cap screw to 163 N•m (120 ft•bf). Install a 1/2-13 eye bolt into the lifting end of the plate
and torque to 92 N•m (68 ft•lbf). Lift the ball/shaft assembly vertically out of the body, being careful not to damage
the sealing surface of the ball.
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.
The open and closed travel stops of the actuator do not require adjustment unless the bonnettobody joint is
loosened. If the actuator is removed for packing replacement, simply remount the actuator per the Actuator Mounting
section of this manual. If the bonnettobody joint is loosened for any reason, establish the zero position per the
Determining Closed Position section of this manual.
Key numbers in this procedure are shown in figure 18, unless otherwise noted.
WARNING
The 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 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.
7
Page 8
SS-264 Valve
September 2021
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 maintenance operations.
D The valve packing area may contain process fluids that are pressurized. 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 15 and 18 unless otherwise noted. A detailed view of the packing is
also shown in figure 4.
Refer to the Parts List section of this manual for individual parts.
If the packing is relatively new and tight on the drive shaft (key 8), and if tightening the packing nuts (key 16) 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
The open and closed travel stops of the actuator do not require adjustment unless the bonnettobody joint is
loosened. If the actuator is removed for packing replacement, simply remount the actuator per the Actuator Mounting
section of this manual.

Packing Adjustment
The following instructions describe how to set the correct stop screw gaps A and B for proper packing load. Gap A is
the nominal packing load and should be used under normal circumstances. Gap B is the maximum packing load and
should not be exceeded.
Stop Screw Gap Settings
1. Loosen the packing flange nuts (key 16) until loose, do not remove nuts.
2. Retighten nuts until just finger-tight.
3. Use the gap gage GE51823 to set Gap A (nominal) to 5.74 mm (0.226 inch) for the packing flange stop screws (key
24) and the top of the stop flange (key 6C). While holding the flange stop screws (key 24) stationary, torque the nut
(key 23) to 41 NSm (30 ftSlbf). Double-check Gap A clearance and adjust if necessary.
4. Use the gap gage to set Gap B (maximum) to 7.80 mm (0.307 inch) for the stop flange stop screws (key 22) and the
packing flange (key 5). While holding the flange stop screws (key 22) stationary, torque nut (key 23) to 41 NSm (30
ftSlbf). Double-check Gap B clearance and adjust if necessary.
5. Tighten the packing flange nuts (key 16) evenly until the Gap A (nominal) 5.74 mm (0.226 inch) for the packing
flange stop screws (key 24) goes to zero and just contacts the stop flange (key 6C) which will set the packing stress
to its nominal value.
Packing Load Adjustment
Use the following steps to increase the packing load from nominal to maximum packing load.
1. Loosen the stop nuts (key 16) and retract the two 3/8-24 x 2.50 stop cap screws (key 24) three full turns.
2. Apply Loctite 242 (key 77) to the two stop cap screws (key 24) and torque the nut (key 23) to 41 NSm (30 lbfSft).
3. Tighten the packing flange nuts (key 16) evenly until the Gap B (maximum) 7.80 mm (0.307 inch) for the packing
flange stop screws (key 22) goes to zero and just contacts the packing flange (key 5), which will set the packing
stress to its maximum value.
Replacing the Trim Parts
The open and closed travel stops of the actuator will need adjustment after any trim replacement per the Actuator
Mounting section of this manual. If the bonnettobody joint is loosened for any reason, establish the zero position per
the Determining Closed Position section of this manual.
Perform this procedure if the control valve components are at a recommended replacement interval, scratched or
damaged, showing performance degradation at routine diagnostics, or the valve is not shutting off properly.
This section describes how to replace the thrust washers (key 1), Belleville spring (key 4), ball/shaft assembly (key 8),
bearing (key 9), and seal ring components (keys 25, 26, and 27). Refer to figure 15.
Disassembly
1. Remove actuator taking care not to bind the coupler (key 101) on the drive shaft (key 8).
2. Loosen and remove packing nuts (key 16). Now remove the packing flange (key 5), Belleville springs (key 6A), stop
plate (key 6C), and packing follower (key 6B).
3. Rotate the ball 180 degrees out of the seal so that the sphere and pin hole point downstream. The keyway at the
top of the shaft will be facing towards the inlet side of the body.

6. Tighten cap screws (key 27) into the anchor ring (key 12B) tapped holes, using a multiple pass, cross pattern
tightening procedure increasing the bolt torque at each pass until all the bolts are at the initial torque value of
45 N•m (33 ft•lbf) and a final torque value of 92 N•m (68 ft•lbf). Then switch to a circular tightening pattern and
continue tightening until there has been no bolt movement at the final torque of 92 N•m (68 ft•lbf) for a complete
circular pass. Use a 3/8” Allen socket for these socket head cap screws.
Note
Rotational orientation of the seal ring is not important. There are 32 tapped holes on the anchor ring in case an anchor ring thread
is damaged out in service; the other set of 16 holes could be used by simply rotating the seal ring one hole.

Excessive Ball Seal Leakage
Other Consult your Emerson sales office.
Disassemble and inspect packing box bore and drive shaft for graphite adhesion, excessive wear or scratches.
If needed, increase packing load to maximum per the Packing Adjustment section of this manual.
Replace packing parts and inspect packing box and shaft at next available maintenance interval.
Verify proper torque on bottom flange studs and nuts in Assembly section of this manual.
Disassemble and inspect sealing surfaces on the bottom flange and valve body for scratches or nicks.
Verify the ball is positioned correctly in the closed position.
Reference the Actuator Adjustments section of this instruction manual.
Disassemble and inspect thrust washer (key 1), drive bearing (key 2), ball (key 8A), bearing follower (key 9),
seal ring (key 25), and special thrust washer (key 28) for excessive wear or scratches.
Actuator Mounting
The open and closed travel stops of the actuator may require adjustment if the bonnettobody or bonnet-to-actuator
joint is loosened. If the actuator is removed for packing replacement, remount the actuator per the this section. If the
bonnettobody or bonnet-to-actuator joint is loosened for any reason, establish the zero position per the Actuator
Adjustments section of this manual.
1. Prior to actuator installation, install shaft key (key 15) on drive shaft key slot.
2. Drive spring pin (key 102) into coupler (key 101).
3. Install coupler (key 101) over drive shaft (key 8), holding shaft key (key 15) in place.
4. Drive spring pin (key 104) into yoke key (key 103).
5. Install yoke key (key 103), with the spring pin (key 104) toward the drive shaft (key 8), onto the coupler (key 101).
This yoke key will need to be held in place while lowering actuator onto shaft.
6. Lower the actuator over the drive shaft (key 8) and onto the bonnet (key 7). Ensure the actuator and bonnet
mounting surfaces remain parallel to prevent binding. A long metal rod or screwdriver can be used to hold the yoke
key (key 103) in place until it is fully seated into actuator.
7. Lubricate with Nuclear Grade anti-seize lubricant (key 36) and install 8 3/410x2.62 hex cap screws (key 18)
finger-tight through the bonnet (key 7) into the actuator. Now rotate the entire actuator counterclockwise (ccw)
as far as the bolted joint will allow. This will bias the actuator slightly, relative to the valve pipe run; this is
acceptable.
Note
Step 7 is essential to ensure the valve is always returned to the same closed position after removing the actuator and replacing the
packing.
8. With the actuator rotated counterclockwise on the bolted joint, tighten the cap screws (key 18) to an initial torque
of 136 N•m (100 lbf•ft) and a final torque of 271 N•m (200 lbf•ft). Tighten the bolted joint using a crisscross
pattern illustrated below in figure 11. Tighten each bolt evenly and in the sequence described.

Determination of Ball Closed and Open Position
The purpose of the following procedure is to establish the ‘closed’ and ‘open’ position for the ball/shaft assembly.
Refer to figure 12.
When the valve assembly is put together, the exact position of the ball relative to the seal is not known. A procedure
was developed to locate the closed or 0° position from a nonspecific open starting point which is considered a final ball
position to achieve expected shut-off; however, at this final position, the exact centerline of the ball may or may not be
aligned with the exact centerline of the seal ring/pipeline. The ball is slowly rotated from a general open position into
the seal until a slow, low pressure stream of water flowing through the valve is reduced to near-zero flow
(coarse-adjustment).
The closed, travel stop is then set. This is a starting position considered a point where the ball has rotated far enough
into the seal to close off the flow passage, however, may still allow considerable seat leakage as compared to Class V
shut-off performance. The closed travel stop is then incrementally adjusted to increase torque of the ball into the seal
until Class V shutoff performance is attained (fine-adjustment).
The closed position is then considered final at this point. Once the closed position is established and seat leakage is
acceptable, the ball is then rotated counter-clockwise (CCW) 90° to establish the open position, and the open travel
stop is engaged. The valve assembly ball adjustment is then considered complete.
CAUTION
Dry cycling this valve into the metal seat may damage the ball and seal. Make sure process fluid is in the valve. If the system
pressure can be relieved, then this is preferred.
19

Instruction Manual
D103565X012
1. Open the valve.
CAUTION
Do not over-pressurize the system or allow for a differential pressure greater than 66psi to develop during this procedure
as it could alter the zero positioning of the valve.
Note
There is a linear indicating mark, just above the packing parts, on the drive shaft indicating the sphere-side of the ball.
2. Install a rotary encoder to the shaft or to the top-works of the Bettis actuator to monitor valve rotation.
3. On the Bettis actuator back out the closed travel stop by turning the stop counter-clockwise (CCW) about 5 turns
(refer to figure 13 for location of travel stop). The closed travel stop is located closest to the large air cylinder of the
Bettis actuator.
4. With the valve in the open position, allow water to flow through the valve while limiting the pressure drop across
the valve to about 10-30 psi.
Note
It takes some time for the Bettis actuator and valve assembly to respond to the step inputs of the regulator. The values in the
following procedure are to provide some guidance in finding the seated position. More important than the actual numbers;
however, is the realization of what is trying to be accomplished: the point at which the ball seats properly and the flow begins to
trend towards the shutoff requirement. Refer to the beginning of this section for more background information on this procedure.
If you have any questions, contact your Emerson sales office
for assistance.
CAUTION
The following step, if done incorrectly, could severely damage the seal or ball significantly and/or cause undue stress on the
shaft assembly causing damage. Do NOT increase the actuator pressure rapidly.
5. Using a regulator and calibrated gauge capable of supplying 0-100 psig, slowly apply pressure to the Bettis air
cylinder. Monitoring the flow through the valve; when the ball is seated into the seal there will be a step decrease of
flow. The ball should be closed and set into the seal between 44 to 48 psig.
6. To find where this step change occurs (and the 0-degree position), perform the following steps:
a. Once the regulated actuator supply pressure of 42 psig is reached wait 5 minutes then test and observe the leak
rate.
b. If the leak rate is not acceptable, increase the supply pressure by 0.5 psig. Then allow 5 minutes for the system to
stabilize.
c. Test the leak rate again until the step change decreases flow. Record the regulator pressure at which this water
flow step change happened for future reference.
20

Instruction Manual
D103565X012
SS-264 Valve

d. If the step decrease does not occur, repeat steps b and c until the step decrease is observed.
CAUTION
Do not fill the actuator cylinder too quickly as the fast stroking speed could alter the zero positioning of the valve.
Note
If the process is continued until the regulator pressure reaches 48 psig and the step change has still not been reached, contact your
Emerson sales office
.
Travel Stop Adjustments
CAUTION
Ensure all the step of the previous section have been followed before adjusting the travel stops.
Once an acceptable leakage rate has been confirmed in the previous section, the closed travel stop in the Bettis needs
to be set. Refer to figures 12, 13, and 14.
1. With the supply air set to the recorded value from step 6.3 of the previous section, turn the Bettis “closed” travel
stop clock-wise (CW) until the stop is firmly seated against the internal scotch yoke of the actuator. Snug the stop
up against the yoke with a light turn of a wrench.
CAUTION
While torquing the travel stop lock nuts, take care not to move the travel stop screw which will change the position of the
ball/shaft assembly.
2. While holding the travel stop stationary, securely tighten the closed travel stop lock nut using a 1-13/16” wrench.
Torque to 136 N•m (100 ft•lbf).
3. Back out the Bettis “open” travel stop by turning the stop CCW approximately 5 turns.
4. Reduce pressure in the Bettis air cylinder until the ball/shaft assembly has rotated 90° ± 2° away from the zero
(closed) position per the encoder readout. Once reached, this is now considered the full open position.
5. Turn the Bettis “open” travel stop clock-wise (CW) until the stop is firmly seated against the internal scotch yoke of
the actuator. Snug the stop up against the yoke with a light turn of a wrench.
6. While holding the travel stop stationary, securely tighten the “open” travel stop lock nut using a 1-13/16” wrench.
Torque to 136 N•m (100 ft•lbf).
7. Set the supply regulator pressure to the specified pressure, typically 70 psig.
Note
The Ball/Shaft assembly requires about 45 psig to achieve the zero position; 70 psig ensures the ball is always driven to the closed
travel stop.

8. With water or process fluid in the valve, lap the ball and seal by cycling the ball/shaft assembly into and out of the
seal 3 times. During the opening of the valve, note the pressure that the ball begins to move. It should be between
26-30 psig. If the pressure noted is outside this range, then the following section can be followed to fine tune the
travel stops.
9. After cycling the valve perform a seat leak test as described in the Ball Seating Check section.
Ball Seating Check
1. Rotate the valve into the closed position (apply actuator air).
WARNING
The following step, if done incorrectly, could severely damage the seal ring or the ball. Do NOT allow a differential pressure
across the valve greater than 66 psi.
2. Perform a 5-minute seat leakage test with 60 (+6/-0) psi differential pressure.
a. If seat leakage more than Class V allowable in the first 5 minutes is detected, then skip to step 3 below.
b. If seat leakage meets Class V criteria in the first 5 minutes, then allow 5 additional minutes to stabilize.
c. After the stabilization period, perform seat leakage test to confirm Class V leakage requirements are met. If Class
V leakage requirements are met skip to step 5; If seat leakage does not meet Class V requirements in the initial

test, allow additional time to stabilize and retest the leakage rate. If the leakage rate does not meet Class V
requirement, go to step 3.
Note
If Class V leakage was not met in steps a through c above, contact your Emerson sales office
.
3. If seat leakage performance from steps a through c was not met, ensure 50 psig to the air cylinder which will rotate
the ball into the seal and the actuator “closed” travel stop.
4. Loosen the “closed” stop lock nut, then back out the closed travel stop until the rotary encoder indicates the ball
has rotated 0.3° farther into the seal.

6. Recheck leakage per steps a through c. Contact your Emerson sales office if Class V cannot be achieved.
Note
Do NOT lap the ball and seal by cycling between each increment in step.
7. Perform steps 3 through 7 for the “open” travel stop of the previous Travel Stop Adjustments section above.
8. To ensure that adequate seating torque (ball seating) is achieved, cycle the valve open and observe the air pressure
of the actuator at the point where the ball begins to move out of the seal.
23
Page 24
SS-264 Valve
September 2021
Note
The ball should experience a ”jump” out of the seal, which can be confirmed by FlowScanner testing. This is typically a break-out
pressure between 26 and 30 psig. If Class V shutoff is achieved with closing ”ramp-in” and opening ”jump” and the pressure is
between 22-35 psig, then this is acceptable. See table 6 in the Periodic FlowScanner Testing section. For more information contact

Periodic FlowScanner Testing
When the valve is operating at design pressure and temperature, it is recommended during regularly scheduled
cycling of the PV20 valve to perform FlowScanner testing to verify “break-in” (“ramp-in”) and “break-out” torque to
verify proper seating and unseating of the ball. Figure 14 shows a FlowScanner plot, which identifies the expected
“ramp-in” of the upper (closing) line and the “break-out” or “jump” of the lower (opening) line of the ball out of the
seal. The ideal break-out torque pressure is between 26-30 psig, and an acceptable overall pressure range is 22-35 psig
based on PV20 testing of break-out profile and torque.
If these characteristics and the limits are met (both torque and pressure) in table 6, and Class V shutoff is achieved,
then the valve is considered as properly set. Adjustments to the travel stops can be made by following the Actuator
Adjustments section of this manual.
