Installation

Installation steps are provided in this section for V200U valves. Key numbers in installation procedures are shown in
figure 14 and 15 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.

Instruction Manual

D104548X012

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 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 2) to the valve drive shaft (key 6) with the clamp (key 130,
figure 2) 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 forward (fluid flows into the convex face of the V-notch ball).

5. Install the valve in a horizontal or vertical pipeline with the drive shaft in a horizontal position.

CAUTION

Do not allow the valve to be installed in the pipeline with the drive shaft in the vertical position because of excessive wear
to valve component parts.

6. The actuator can be right‐ or left‐hand mounted with the shaft in a horizontal orientation as shown in figure 1. If
necessary, refer to the appropriate actuator instruction manual for actuator installation and adjustment
procedures.

CAUTION

Ensure the valve and adjacent pipelines are free of foreign material that could damage the valve seating surfaces.

Installing V200U Valves

1. To avoid potential interference with the valve outlet end pipe flange, the V200U ball should be in the closed
position prior to installation. Install the V200U valve using long studs to connect the two pipeline flanges. Refer to
figure 3 for the length of studs required based on the mating pipeline flange pressure class. Lubricate the studs with
anti‐seize lubricant.

CAUTION

For DN 100, 200, and 250 (NPS 4, 8, and 10), damage to the ball (key 2) could occur if the downstream piping interferes
with the ball rotation. Prior to installing the valve body between adjacent flanges, reference dimension P in table 4 and
measure carefully to ensure the ball will rotate without interference.

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 features at the bottom of the valve body.

3. Insert appropriate flange gaskets 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.

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.

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 14 and 15 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 14 and 15 unless otherwise noted. A detailed view of the packing is
also shown in figure 4.

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

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

instructions, and

D The Parts List section of this manual for retrofit kits, parts kits, and individual parts.

If the packing is relatively new and tight on the drive shaft (key 6), and if tightening the packing follower nuts does not
stop leakage, it is possible that the drive shaft is worn or nicked so that a seal cannot be made. If the leakage comes
from the outside diameter of the packing, it is possible that the leakage is caused by nicks or scratches on the packing
box wall. Inspect the drive shaft and packing box wall for nicks or scratches while performing the following procedure.

Replacing Packing

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. To avoid potential interference with the valve outlet end pipe flange, the V200U ball should be in the closed

position prior to removal.

3. 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.

4. 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 12) for Fisher actuation.

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 at the bottom of
the valve body cavity. Make sure the ball will not rotate.

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.

5. 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.)

6. If applicable, remove the bonding strap assembly before attempting to remove the packing (see figure 2).

7. 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.

8. Remove the packing parts (see figure 4, 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

1. 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 5).
Keep the ball in that position until you have completed packing installation and adjustment.

2. Install the new packing parts using the parts sequence shown in figure 4. Install the packing follower (key 17).

3. Secure the packing follower with the packing follower nuts (key 20). Tighten the nuts far enough to stop leakage

under operating conditions.

Note

If the valve is equipped with a bonding strap assembly (figure 2), re‐install the assembly.

) for assembly.

4. Reconnect the actuator and lever in accordance with the orientations that were noted in step 3 of the disassembly

procedures. If necessary, use figure 10 to identify the correct index marks.

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

3. 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 Installing HD Metal Seals section.

Installing HD Metal Seals

Refer to figures 6, 14, and 15 for key number locations during seal installation.

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.

1. For DN 80 and 100 (NPS 3 and 4), before installing HD metal seals, ensure ball (key 2) is installed into valve body.
Ball should be in closed position while you install the seal 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 5).

2. 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. See
figure 5.

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.

3. Lubricate and install the radial seal (key 37) into the appropriate groove in the seal protector ring making sure the
open side of the radial seal faces away from the ball.

Bearing and Ball Maintenance

WARNING

Before performing the steps in this section, observe the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section of this
manual.

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

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.

Disassembly

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 at the bottom of
the valve body cavity. Make sure the ball will not rotate.

Key numbers in this procedure are shown in figures 6, 14, and 15, unless otherwise indicated.

1. For DN 80 and 100 (NPS 3 and 4), seal protector ring (key 3) and HD seal (key 5) should be removed first, refers to
procedure of Removing HD Seal on page 12. For DN 150, 200, and 250 (NPS 6, 8, and 10), HD seal will be removed
after ball (key 2) is removed in this procedure.

2. A taper key (key 4) is used to connect the ball and drive shaft.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. Locate the small end of the taper key (key 4). 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.

6. 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.

7. 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.

8. 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 table 5 for a description of the size threaded rod needed. The length of the rod should allow easy
working room from the valve body.

3. Installing the Vee‐Ball: Lubrication will assist with break-in of the HD metal seals and with assembly. It is required

that both the ball surface and seal be lubricated with dry film lubricant or equivalent moly disulfide.

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.

Place the valve body on a table or bench.

D For DN 80 and 100 (NPS 3 and 4), the ball (key 2) should be installed from the inlet opening of the valve body.

The follower shaft (key 9) should be inserted into the ball before the ball is installed. Engage the ball drive shaft
side ear with the body as shown in figure 8 then lower the follower side ball ear into the body and position the
ball between the bearings.

D For DN 150, 200, and 250 (NPS 6, 8, and 10), the ball (key 2) should be installed from the outlet opening of the

valve body. Engage the ball drive shaft side ear with the body as shown in figure 9 then lower the follower side
ball ear into the body and position the ball between the bearings.

4. Installing the Follower Shaft (key 9):

D For DN 80 and 100 (NPS 3 and 4), 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 DN 150, 200, and 250 (NPS 6, 8, and 10), with the ball rotated open and not in contact with the HD seal,

insert the follower shaft (key 9) through the ball, and into the valve body bearing (key 10).

5. 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.

6. Installing the Drive Shaft (key 6):

CAUTION

The drive shaft must be used with the correct Vee‐Ball. Refer to the tag (see figure 10) attached to the Vee‐Ball and to the
drive shaft.

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.

Make sure the drive shaft is free of oil or grease, otherwise the taper pin or taper key will not seat properly. Failure to
properly set the taper pin or taper key could result in it coming loose while in service. Loosening of the taper key in service
could result in improper valve function and equipment damage.

8. Insert the taper key (key 4) into ball and drive shaft (keys 2 and 6) as shown in figure 11. The taper key inserts with
the flat side of the key facing the drive shaft (key 6).

9. 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. Stake both ends of the pin hole with a center punch to ensure the groove pin does not come out.

10. 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.

11. Measure the position of the taper key head.

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

13. 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 7.

Note

All valve taper keys are tack welded, except titanium.

14. 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
figures 14 and 15). Use a:

D 1/8-inch diameter weld on DN 80, 100, and 150 (NPS 3, 4, and 6) valves

D 3/16-inch diameter weld on DN 200 and 250 (NPS 8 and 10) valves

15. Use the pry bar or similar tool to move the ball tightly against the bearing on the actuator side of the valve to help
ensure correct side-to-side centering of the ball (key 2) on the seal (key 11). See figure 5.

16. Be sure that the HD seal is fully installed in the valve. Carefully rotate the ball to engage the HD seal while applying
force across the middle of the seal to compress the wave spring until the ball is fully engaged. Be cautious during
this process, knowing that excessive force may damage the ball. Keep the ball in the engaged position going
forward.

Actuator Mounting

Use the appropriate actuator instruction manual, this section of this manual, and figure 12 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 pry bar or similar tool inserted between
the lower ear of the ball and the valve body. This will center the ball. See figure 5.

19

V200U Valve

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.

Instruction Manual

D104548X012

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 12).

The Series B Vee‐Ball has 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.

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:

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 13 out of a suitable stiff material. Place the centering template in
the opening at the seal (see figure 13). Find the center of the template and make sure the spot on the ball is
centered directly below it.

4. Adjust the actuator 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 12) to indicate the ball position.

Use the appropriate actuator instruction manual and figure 12 of this manual when mounting the actuator or
changing actuator styles and positions.
