Instruction Manual

D101554X012

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 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.

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

Vee-Ball Valves

March 2021

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 the 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 the flange mating surfaces and keep the valve body cavity dry 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

To maximize seal life, the valve should be installed so the drive shaft will be in the horizontal orientation while in service. Please contact your Emerson sales office for evaluating vertical drive shaft installations.

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, V300, and Flanged V200 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 ring (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. The seal protector ring end of the valve for the DN25/NPS 1 constructions will have threaded flange holes due to insufficient nut clearance.

2. See table 3 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 dimension from the center line of the valve bore to the mounting flange face is larger than a CL150 or 300 valve.

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 pipeline flanges, and tighten the flange stud nuts. Tighten the nuts in a criss‐cross sequence to be sure the flange gaskets are properly torqued.

5. 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.

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 maintenance operations. 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.

Page 9

Instruction Manual

D101554X012

If the valve is equipped with the ENVIRO‐SEAL Packing System, refer to:

Vee-Ball Valves

March 2021

D the separate ENVIRO‐SEAL Packing System for Rotary Valves instruction manual (D101643X012

) for maintenance

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

When using this procedure, it is recommended 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. 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, 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.)

Page 10

Vee-Ball Valves

March 2021

Instruction Manual

D101554X012

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 Rotary Valves instruction manual (D101643X012

) for disassembly.

WARNING

Personal injury could result from packing leakage. Do not scratch the drive shaft or packing box wall while removing packing parts in the following procedure.

7. Remove the packing parts (see figure 5, keys 16, 17, 35, and 39 depending on construction) using a formed wire hook with a sharp end. Pierce the rings with the sharp end of the hook in order to remove them. Do not scratch the drive shaft or packing box wall; scratching these surfaces could cause leakage. Clean all accessible metal parts and surfaces to remove particles that would prevent the packing from sealing.

Assembly

If the valve is equipped with the ENVIRO‐SEAL packing system, refer to the ENVIRO‐SEAL Packing System for Rotary Valves instruction manual (D101643X012

) for assembly.

1. For NPS 8, 10, and 12 valves, install the packing spacer (key 34) if it has been removed.

2. To help ensure correct centering of the Vee‐ball (key 2) on the seal (key 11), make sure the ball is closed while you install or tighten new packing. Insert a screwdriver, pry bar, or similar tool between the lower ear of the ball and the valve body. Use the pry to move the ball tightly against the bearing on the actuator side of the valve (see figure 6). Keep the ball in that position until you have completed packing installation and adjustment.

3. Install the new packing parts using the parts sequence shown in figure 5. Install the packing follower (key 17). Alloy constructions have a packing follower (key 17) and a separate packing flange (key 40) that must be replaced.

4. Secure the packing follower with the packing follower nuts (key 20). Tighten the nuts far enough to stop leakage under operating conditions.

Handle the seal protector ring, seal, and other parts carefully to prevent damage. A new gasket (key 15) is required whenever the seal protector ring (key 3) (figure 11) is removed.

Flow ring construction does not use a seal, shims, or spring seal. Use this procedure to remove the seal protector ring from flow ring constructions, but disregard any instructions calling for the seal, shims, or spring seal.

Note

If the valve is equipped with a bonding strap assembly (figure 3), re‐install the assembly.

5. Reconnect the actuator and lever in accordance with the orientations that were noted in step 3 of the disassembly procedures. If necessary, use figure 23 to identify the correct index marks.

6. Refer to the appropriate actuator instruction manual to complete actuator assembly and adjustment.

7. When the control valve is in operation, check the packing follower for leakage and retighten the packing follower nuts (key 20) as necessary.

Replacing the Ball Seal

Disassembly

Perform this procedure if the control valve is not shutting off properly or if seal inspection is necessary. If you find upon inspection that the ball, shaft, or bearings need to be replaced, use this procedure to remove the ball seal. Then, proceed to the Bearing and Ball Maintenance procedures. Then, return to this procedure and begin with the assembly of the ball seal steps.

While the actuator/valve assembly must be removed from the pipeline, the actuator may remain mounted on the valve as you replace the ball seal.

Key numbers are shown in figures 24, 25, and 26, unless otherwise indicated. Ball Seal assembly details (with key numbers) are also shown in figures 8, 9, and 10.

WARNING

Perform the steps in the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section of this manual.

1. Remove line bolting, remove the control valve from the pipeline, and place the valve on a flat surface with the seal protector ring facing up. Carefully rotate the ball to the open position.

2. Remove protector ring screws and washers (keys 21 and 22). Carefully remove the seal protector ring and gasket (keys 3 and 15). (For flow ring constructions, go to step 4.)

a. For a Fisher TCM seal, remove the seal (key 11) from the valve body. For NPS 1, 1-1/2, and 2 valves, also remove

the backup ring (key 14, figure 8) from the valve body.

b. For a flat metal seal, remove the spring seal, seal, and shims (keys 13, 11, and 12). (Note: It may be necessary to

re‐use some of the original shims when reassembling the flat metal seal.)

c. For an HD ball seal or a high temperature HD ball seal, once the protector ring has been removed from the valve,

push the metal seal (key 11) out of the seal protector ring (key 3). Remove the wave spring (key 13), and on the HD metal seal, the radial seal (key 37).

Note

The high temperature HD ball seal also has a piston ring (key 133) that will need to be removed. It will be in two pieces for the NPS 1, 1-1/2 and 2 valves, and one piece with a break in it for the NPS 3 through 12 valves.

CAUTION

Exercise care to avoid damaging components in the following procedure.

Page 14

March 2021

Instruction Manual

D101554X012

D It might be necessary to remove the HD 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 valves, if the seal is difficult to push out, it is recommended that a seal removal plate be

used to press the HD 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 the lower ear of the ball and the valve body (see figure 6).

3. Use the pry to move the ball tightly against the bearing on the actuator side of the valve. Be careful, excessive force 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.

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 protector 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 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 ball 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.

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.

D Install the HD seal (key 11) into the seal protector ring (key 3), past the radial seal. While pushing it past the

radial seal, make sure the HD seal is level.

D The HD seal uses a retaining ring (key 41) for NPS 10 and 12 valves only. This retaining ring is an

octagonal‐shaped support wire. Go to step 5 in this procedure.

Installing high temperature HD ball seals:

a. For NPS 1, 1-1/2 and 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. All part numbers in this manual are for the newer design. Refer to figure 7 for ring dimensions.

D Place the wave spring (key 13) on top of the HD seal (key 11).

D Break the piston ring (key 133) into two approximately equal pieces either by placing the ring over a pencil

or similar object and applying pressure down‐wards on the ring until the ring snaps. Be sure to match the broken ends together as you install it on the HD seal (key 11).

D Lay the HD seal (key 11) down on a flat surface and push the seal protector ring (key 3) into place. Make

sure the seal is level. Go to step 5 in this procedure.

b. For NPS 3 through 8 valves:

D Place the piston ring (key 133) and retaining ring (key 132) into the appropriate groove in the seal protector

ring (key 3). The piston ring has one break in it; do not break it further.

Disassembly

WARNING

Key numbers in this procedure are shown in figures 24, 25, and 26, unless otherwise indicated.

1. A taper key (key 4, figures 14, 24, 25 and 32) is used to connect the ball and drive shaft in NPS 3 through 12 valves.

2. Carefully rotate the ball to the open position after the actuator is disconnected. Make sure the ball will not rotate (see warning above). Provide support for the ball during the following disassembly.

3. Working from the small end of the groove pin (key 7), use a pin punch to drive the groove pin out of the ball ear and follower shaft.

For tack welded taper keys, driving the taper key out of the ball ear will shear the tack welding.

4. Locate the small end of the taper key (key 4, see figures 14, 24, 25 and 32). Using a pin punch on the smaller end of the taper key, drive it out of the ball (key 2) and drive shaft (key 6). Note: driving the taper key in the wrong direction will tighten it.

5. Pull the drive shaft (key 6) out of the actuator side of the valve body.

CAUTION

Exercise care to avoid damaging components in the following procedure.

6. The ball will be free to move when both shafts are removed. Make sure the sealing surface of the ball is not damaged while removing the follower shaft.

a. Unscrew the pipe plug (key 25) if one is installed. Use a punch to drive the follower shaft (key 9) into the center of

the ball.

b. If a pipe plug is not installed, use a piece of continuous threaded rod as a removal rod when moving the follower

shaft (key 9) into the center of the ball. Refer to the table 4 for a description of the size threaded rod needed. The length of the rod should allow easy working room from the valve body.

7. Carefully remove the follower shaft and ball (key 2) from the valve body.

For NPS 4 valves with attenuator, remove the ball/attenuator through the inlet of the valve. Taking hold of the follower shaft ear on the ball/attenuator, you must position the scalloped edge of the attenuator against the valve bore opening and then pivot, or roll, the ball/attenuator out of the valve body (see figure 18).

For NPS 6, 8, 10, and 12 valves with attenuator, remove the ball/attenuator through the outlet of the valve by carefully turning and manipulating the ball. The NPS 6, 8, 10, or 12 ball/attenuator will not come straight out of the valve body.

8. Remove the bearings (key 10) by hand. If the bearings are tight in the valve body, then pull or drive them out with a slight pressure.

D To remove the follower shaft bearings, use a blind‐hole bearing puller. If you do not have such a tool, you can

machine the bearing out.

9. Thoroughly clean surfaces of all parts that are to be re‐used or obtain replacement parts.

Assembly

1. Inspect all sealing surfaces to ensure they are in good condition and without scratches or wear.

2. Install the replacement bearings (key 10) by hand. The bearing flanged end should touch the valve body.

3. Installing the Vee‐Ball: Ensure the ball part number matches up with the appropriate seal type as shown in the key 2 ball table in the parts list section of this instruction manual.

WARNING

The ball might be damaged if it is allowed to fall into the valve body. To avoid personal injury or damage to the sealing surfaces, support the ball to prevent it from falling into or out of the valve body cavity.

Note

For ease of assembly, the follower shaft (key 9) should be inserted into the ball before installing the ball in the following applications:

NPS 3 valve without ball/attenuator

NPS 4 through 12 valves with ball/attenuator.

Carefully install the ball into the valve body cavity.

D For Vee‐Ball with attenuator (NPS 4 through 12 valves), carefully install the ball into the valve body cavity. For NPS 4

valves, install the ball/attenuator through the inlet of the valve. For NPS 6, 8, 10, and 12 valves, install the ball/attenuator through the outlet of the valve. Taking hold of the follower shaft ear on the ball/attenuator, you must position the scalloped edge of the attenuator against the valve bore opening and then carefully pivot, or roll, the ball/attenuator into the valve body (see figure 18).

After you have installed the ball (key 2) into the valve body assembly, firmly support the ball while installing the shafts.

4. Installing the follower shaft (key 9):

D For NPS 3 valves: The follower shaft (key 9) should already have been inserted into the ball before the ball was put

into the valve body. Insert the follower shaft (key 9) into the valve body bearing (key 10).

D For NPS 4 and larger valves: Insert the follower shaft (key 9) through the ball, and into the valve body bearing (key

10).

D For NPS 4 through 12 valves with ball/attenuator: The follower shaft (key 9) should already have been inserted into

the ball/attenuator before the ball was put into the valve body. Insert the follower shaft (key 9) into the valve body bearing (key 10).

Then for all sizes, align the hole in the follower shaft with the holes in the ball. Insert the small end of the groove pin (key 7) into the hole in the ball and into the follower shaft. The pin will hold the parts in place while the drive shaft (key

6) is being installed.

Actuator Mounting

Use the appropriate actuator instruction manual, this section of this manual, and figure 23 of this manual when mounting the actuator or changing actuator styles and positions.

1. To help ensure correct centering of the Vee‐Ball (key 2) on the seal (key 11), be sure the ball is closed when mounting the actuator (for applications other than Spring Return Fail‐Open).

2. Clean the valve shaft and actuator lever splines to be sure the actuator lever will slide on easily. Only drive the lever in if absolutely necessary.

3. Carefully wedge the ball solidly against the actuator‐side bearing, using a screwdriver or similar tool inserted between the lower ear of the ball and the valve body. This will center the ball. See figure 6.

4. Keep the wedge in place while installing the lever, if necessary. Remove the wedge after you have clamped the actuator lever on the valve shaft and have connected the lever to the actuator piston rod or diaphragm rod.

Determining Mounting Position

The actuator can be either right or left‐hand mounted, with the actuator on the right or left side when viewed from upstream (see figure 23).

The Series B Vee‐Ball, NPS 4 through 12 with attenuator, and the NPS 1 micro‐notch Vee‐Ball have one V‐notch. For right‐hand mounting (standard), the ball will be in the top of the valve body when the valve is open and the shaft is horizontal. In this position the ball rotates CCW to Close. For left‐hand mounting (standard), the ball will be in the bottom of the valve body when the valve is open and the shaft is horizontal. In this position the ball rotates CCW to Close. An optional ball for left‐hand mounting, which rotates into the top of the valve body when the shaft is horizontal, is also available. In this position the ball rotates CW to Close.

The NPS 1 through 2 has two notches, and can be rotated in either direction.

Determining Closed Position

1. The valve must be removed from the line to check the position of the ball.

WARNING

The Vee‐Ball closes with a shearing, cutting motion. To avoid personal injury, keep hands, tools, and other objects away from the ball while stroking the valve.

2. Rotate the ball to the closed position.

3. Position the ball in the proper location

For Series B:

D When viewed from the valve body inlet, the ball is in the proper position when the flat spot on the top of the ball is

exactly in the center of the seal package.

Make a copy of the centering template in figure 27 out of a suitable stiff material. Place the centering template in the opening at the seal (See figure 27). Find the center of the template and make sure the spot on the ball is centered directly below it.

Page 34

Vee-Ball Valves

March 2021

Instruction Manual

D101554X012

For NPS 1, 1-1/2, and 2 valves: Follow one of the procedures below:

D When viewed from the valve body inlet, the ball is in the proper position when both V‐notches of the ball are

centered between the machined diameter of the ledge that supports the seal.

D If the ball has a spot machined on the top, align that spot to the exact center of the seal cavity.

4. Adjust the actuator linkage as described in the appropriate actuator instruction manual until the ball is centered in the closed position. A line is stamped on the actuator end of the drive shaft (see figure 23) to indicate the ball position.

Use the appropriate actuator instruction manual and figure 23 of this manual when mounting the actuator or changing actuator styles and positions.

The Micro‐Notch ball closed position is approximately 5 degrees closed from the first point of flow. This establishes the zero degree position for the ball.

Appendix A Instructions for Non‐Series B

The Series B changes affected only the NPS 3 through 12 valves without attenuators. To determine if a Vee‐Ball valve is Series B, you will need to examine several of the internal parts. Compare the distinctive skirted V‐notch outline of the forward side and the circular edge on the reverse side of the Series B design ball to the V‐notch on both sides of the non‐series B design ball. Then look for bushings. The lack of bushings indicates the valve body is Series B.

All Vee‐Ball valves NPS 3 through 12 produced before the Series B design changes use the Specifications table, the Installation, Maintenance, Packing Maintenance, Replacing Packing, and Replacing the Ball Seal instructions found elsewhere in this manual. Bearing and Vee‐Ball Maintenance and Actuator Mounting instructions for these valves may be found below.

Maintenance

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 maintenance operations to avoid personal

injury.

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.

Procedures for disassembly and assembly of the bearings and ball cannot be accomplished until the ball seal and valve packing are removed from the valve.

1. Refer to the Replacing Packing procedures to remove the actuator, and to remove the packing flange and packing follower from the valve. When the packing disassembly steps are complete, return to this section.

2. Refer to the Replacing the Ball Seal procedures to remove the ball seal from the valve.

Disassembly

WARNING

Page 46

Vee-Ball Valves

March 2021

Instruction Manual

D101554X012

Key numbers in this procedure are shown in figures 24, 26, and 32, unless otherwise indicated. A taper key (key 4, figure 14) is used in NPS 3 through 12 Non‐Series B valves.

4. Unscrew the pipe plug (key 25). (With newer valve constructions, the pipe plug is optional and may not be available.)

5. Working from the small end of the groove pin (key 7), use a pin punch to drive the groove pin out of the ball ear and follower shaft.

For tack welded taper keys, driving the taper key out of the ball ear will shear the tack welding.

6. Locate the small end of the taper key (key 4, see figure 14). Using a pin punch on the smaller end of the taper key, drive it out of the ball (key 2) and drive shaft (key 6). Note: driving the taper key in the wrong direction will tighten it.

7. Pull the drive shaft (key 6) out of the actuator side of the valve body.

8. Make sure the sealing surface of the ball is not damaged while removing the follower shaft.

a. If a pipe plug (key 25) is installed, use a punch to drive the follower shaft (key 9) into the center of the ball.

b. If a pipe plug is not

installed, use a piece of continuous threaded rod as a removal rod when moving the follower shaft (key 9) into the center of the V‐notch ball. Refer to the table 8 for a description of the size threaded rod needed. The length of the rod should allow easy working room from the valve body.

9. Remove the ball (key 2) by carefully removing the follower shaft and ball from the valve body.

10. Remove the packing box spacer (key 34) for NPS 8, 10, and 12 valves.

11. Removing the bearings (key 10):

a. For composition bearings, remove the bearings by hand. If the bearings are tight in the valve body, then pull or

drive them out with a slight pressure. Allow the bushings (key 5 or 8) to remain in the valve body.

Table 8. Continuous Threaded Rod

Valve Size, NPS Threaded Rod Thread Size Thread Depth in Follower Shaft

3 1/4‐20 0.5

4 1/4‐20 0.5

6 1/4‐20 0.5

8 5/16‐18 0.62

10 5/16‐18 0.62

12 5/16‐18 0.94

b. For metal bearings, use a press and ram to remove the drive shaft bearings out of the valve body. Refer to figures

30 and 31 ram dimensions. The bushings (key 5 or 8) will normally remain in the valve body.

To remove the follower shaft bearings, use a blind‐hole bearing puller. If you do not have such a tool, you can machine the bearing out.

Note

For proper shutoff performance, the ball and seal require the bearing (key 10) to be positioned correctly. If you removed the bearings (key 10), be sure to locate the new bearings as shown in figures 30 and 31.

12. Thoroughly clean surfaces of all parts that are to be re‐used or obtain replacement parts.

Assembly

1. Inspect all sealing surfaces to ensure they are in good condition and without scratches or wear.

2. Installing bearings (key 10):

a. For composition bearings, install the bearings by hand. The bearing flanged end should touch the bushing (key 5

or 8).

b. For metal bearings:

D Use a press and ram to install the bearings (key 10). Refer to figures 30 and 31.

D Press the bearings in until each bearing is flush with the bushing (key 5 or 8). The acceptable tolerance for bearing

location is: flush with the bushing to 1.52 mm (0.060 inches) inside the bushing. That is, the bearings should not protrude into the flow cavity of the valve, and they should not be more than 1.52 mm (0.060 inches) inside the bushing.

D Take care not to change the position of the bushings (key 5 or 8) when pressing in new bearings (key 10), otherwise

the ball will not center in the valve body and seal.

3. Installing the Vee‐Ball (key 2):

WARNING

Note

For ease of assembly, the follower shaft (key 9) should be inserted into the ball before installing the ball in an NPS 3 valve without ball/attenuator.

Carefully install the ball into the valve body cavity.

After you have installed the ball (key 2) into the valve body assembly, firmly support the ball while installing the shafts.

4. Installing the follower shaft (key 9):

D For NPS 3 valves: The follower shaft (key 9) should already have been inserted into the ball before the ball was put

into the valve body. Insert the follower shaft (key 9) into the valve body bearing (key 10).

D For NPS 4 and larger valves without attenuator: Insert the follower shaft (key 9) through the ball, and into the valve

body bearing (key 10).

6) is being installed.

5. Insert the drive shaft (key 6) into the valve body bearing (key 10), and into the ball ear. Align the hole in the drive shaft with the holes in the ball.

CAUTION

The drive shaft must be used with the correct Vee‐Ball. Refer to the tag (see figure 13) attached to the Vee‐Ball and to the drive shaft.

Page 48

Vee-Ball Valves

March 2021

Failure to use the correct Vee‐Ball/ shaft combination may result in the ball not being in the position indicated by the slash mark on the end of the shaft. If the ball is not properly aligned with the slash mark, the valve will not function correctly and seal damage may result.

Instruction Manual

D101554X012

6. Installing the Taper Key (key 4):

Current standard construction materials for all NPS 3 through 12 valves require the taper key (key 4, figure 14) to be tack welded in place using the following procedure. Use standard welding preparations when preparing parts for reassembly.

CAUTION

1. Install the drive shaft (key 6) into the valve body through the ball and into the lower bearing.

2. Insert the taper key (key 4) into ball and drive shaft (keys 2 and 6) as shown in figure 14. The taper key inserts, with the flat side of the key, facing the drive shaft (key 6).

3. Using a flat end punch, drive the groove pin (key 7) into the ball ear and follower shaft until it is flat with the ball ear surface.

4. Using a flat end punch, drive the taper key (key 4) into the ball ear and drive shaft (key 6) until solid, heavy contact is obtained between the key and shaft.

5. Measure the position of the taper key head.

6. Drive the taper key in further using the minimum distance shown in table 8.

7. Inspect the ball/shaft taper key connection to verify that the taper key spans the entire shaft flat width. If not, the taper key must be driven in further until this condition is satisfied. However, do not exceed the maximum depths shown in table 9.

Note

When welding standard valves that have a CG8M (317 SST) or CF3M (316L SST) ball, use 309 or 309L filler rod material.

Alloy valve taper keys are normally not welded.

8. When the above conditions are met, tack weld the taper key (key 4) to the ball ear on the head end of the key (see figure 26). Use a:

D 1/8 inch diameter weld on NPS 3 through 6 valves,

Page 49

Instruction Manual

D101554X012

D 3/16 inch diameter weld on NPS 8 through 10 valves, and

D 1/4 inch diameter weld on NPS 12 valves.

For all constructions: Refer to Replacing the Ball Seal, Packing Maintenance, and other procedures as necessary to complete the assembly of the valve.

Actuator Mounting

Use the appropriate actuator instruction manual and figure 23 of this manual when mounting the actuator or changing actuator styles and positions.

To help ensure correct centering of the ball (key 2) on the seal (key 11), be sure the ball is closed when mounting the actuator. Do not use a hammer or other tool to drive the actuator lever onto the valve shaft.

Clean the valve shaft and actuator lever splines to be sure the actuator lever will slide on easily. If the lever does not slide on easily, carefully wedge the ball solidly against the actuator‐side bearing using a screwdriver or similar tool inserted between the lower ear of the ball and the valve body.

Keep the wedge in place while installing the lever, but again, do not drive on the lever. Remove the wedge after you have clamped the actuator lever on the valve shaft and connected the lever to the actuator piston rod or diaphragm rod.

Determining Mounting Position

The actuator can be either right or left‐hand mounted.

Note

Right‐hand mounting—Actuator is on the right side of the valve when viewed from valve inlet.

Left‐hand mounting—Actuator is on the left side of the valve when viewed from valve inlet.

The preferred location of the ball is in the top of the valve body when the valve is open. To convert from right to left hand‐mounting, turn the valve to position the actuator mounting pad on the left and rotate the ball to the top of the valve.

The number one V‐notch controls flow on right‐hand mounting. Turn the valve 180 degrees, and rotate the ball to the top of the valve to obtain left‐hand mounting. The number two V‐notch controls flow for this construction. See figure

33.

Determining Closed Position

1. The valve must be removed from the line to check the position of the ball.

WARNING

The ball closes with a shearing, cutting motion. To avoid personal injury, keep hands, tools, and other objects away from the ball while stroking the valve.

Page 50

Vee-Ball Valves

March 2021

Instruction Manual

D101554X012

2. Rotate the ball to the closed position.

3. Follow one of the procedures below:

D When viewed from the valve body inlet, the ball is in the proper position when both V‐notches of the ball are

centered between the machined diameter of the ledge that supports the seal.

D If the ball has a spot machined on the top, align that spot to the exact center of the seal cavity.

4. Adjust the actuator linkage as described in the appropriate actuator instruction manual until the condition described in step 3 exists. A line is stamped on the actuator end of the drive shaft (see figure 23) to indicate the ball position.
