Description
HP Series high‐pressure globe and angle valves (figure 1) have metal seats, cage guiding, quick change trim, and
push‐down‐to‐close valve plug action. HPD, HPAD, HPT, and HPAT valves use balanced valve plugs. HPS and HPAS
valves use an unbalanced valve plug. To provide a seal between the cage and a balanced valve plug, the HPD and HPAD
valve plugs use piston rings; the HPT and HPAT valve plugs use a pressure‐assisted seal ring. A Whisper Trim or
WhisperFlo cage can be used with an HPD, HPAD, HPS, HPAS, HPT, or HPAT valve plug. A Cavitrol III cage can be used
with an HPS, HPAS, HPT, or HPAT valve plug.
C‐seal trim is available for HPD valves, CL900 and CL1500, in sizes NPS 3, 4, and 6; and for HPAD valves, CL900 and
CL1500 in sizes NPS 4, 6, and 8.
With C‐seal trim, a balanced valve can achieve high‐temperature, Class V shutoff. Because the C‐seal plug seal is
formed from metal (N07718 nickel alloy) rather than an elastomer, a valve equipped with the C‐seal trim can be
applied in processes with a fluid temperature of up to 593_C (1100_F), provided other material limits are not
exceeded.

Educational Services
For information on available courses for Fisher HP and HPA valves, as well as a variety of other products, contact:
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 the limits given in table 1 or on the appropriate nameplates. To avoid such injury or
3

damage, provide a relief valve for over‐pressure 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
Some bonnet flanges have a tapped hole that was used to handle the bonnet during manufacture. Do not use this tapped
hole to lift the valve assembly or personal injury may result.
WARNING
When ordered, the valve configuration and construction materials were selected to meet particular pressure, temperature,
pressure drop, and controlled fluid conditions indicated when the valve was ordered. Since some body/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
or Local Business Partner.
1. Before installing the valve, inspect it to ensure that the valve body cavity is free of foreign material.
2. Clean out all pipelines to remove scale, welding slag, and other foreign materials before installing the valve.
Note
If the valve body being installed has small internal flow passages, such as with Whisper Trim III, WhisperFlo, or Cavitrol III cages,
consideration should be given to installing an upstream strainer to prevent the lodging of particles in these passages. This is
especially important if the pipeline cannot be thoroughly cleaned or if the flowing medium is not clean.
3. Flow through the valve must be in the direction indicated by the flow arrow, which is stamped on or attached to the
valve body.

4. Use accepted piping and welding practices when installing the valve in the pipeline. For flanged valve bodies, use a
suitable gasket between the body and pipeline flanges.
5. Install a three‐valve bypass around the valve if continuous operation is required during maintenance.
6. If the actuator and valve body are shipped separately, refer to the actuator mounting procedure in the appropriate
actuator instruction manual.
7. If the valve body was shipped without packing installed in the packing box, install the packing before putting the
valve body into service. Refer to instructions given in the Packing Maintenance procedure.
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.
Valves with ENVIRO‐SEAL™ live‐loaded packing or HIGH‐SEAL ULF live‐loaded packing will not require this initial
re‐adjustment. See the instruction manuals titled ENVIRO‐SEAL Packing System for Sliding‐Stem Valves
(D101642X012
instructions. If you wish to convert your present packing arrangement to ENVIRO‐SEAL packing, refer to the retrofit
kits listed in the parts kit sub‐section near the end of this manual.
) or HIGH‐SEAL ULF Live‐Loaded Packing System (D101453X012) (as appropriate) for packing
Maintenance
Valve parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected and replaced as necessary. Inspection and maintenance
frequency depends on the severity of service conditions. This section includes instructions for packing lubrication,
packing maintenance, and trim maintenance. All maintenance operations may be performed with the valve in the line.
WARNING
Avoid personal injury or damage to property from sudden release of pressure or uncontrolled process fluid. Before starting
disassembly:
D Do not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
D Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any maintenance operations to avoid personal
injury.
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
on 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 The valve packing box 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, or when
loosening the packing box pipe plug.
D Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
Note
The HP series valve uses spiral‐wound gaskets which are crushed to provide their seal. A spiral‐wound gasket should never be
reused. Whenever a gasket seal is disturbed by removing or shifting gasketed parts, a new gasket must be installed upon
reassembly. This is necessary to ensure a good gasket seal, since the used gasket will not seal properly.

Packing Lubrication
CAUTION
Do not lubricate graphite packing. Graphite packing is self-lubricated. Additional lubrication may result in slip-stick
movement of the valve.
Note
To avoid lubricants breaking down at elevated temperatures, do not lubricate packing used in processes with temperatures over
260_C (500_F).
WARNING
Do not lubricate parts when used in oxygen service, or where the lubrication is incompatible with the process media. Any
use of lubricant can lead to the sudden explosion of media due to the oil/oxygen mixture, causing personal injury or
property damage.
If a lubricator or lubricator/isolating valve (figure 2) is provided for PTFE/composition or other packings that require
lubrication, it will be installed in place of the pipe plug (key 31, figure 17, 18, or 19). Use a good quality silicon‐base
lubricant. Packing used in oxygen service or in processes with temperatures over 260_C (500_F) should not be
lubricated. To operate the lubricator, turn the cap screw clockwise to force the lubricant into the packing box. The
lubricator/isolating valve operates the same way except the isolating valve must first be opened and then closed after
lubrication is completed.
Packing Maintenance
If there is undesirable packing leakage in the spring‐loaded PTFE V‐ring packing shown in figure 3, tighten the packing
flange nuts (key 21, figure 17, 18, or 19) until the shoulder on the packing follower (key 28, figure 17, 18, or 19)
contacts the bonnet (key 18, figure 17, 18, or 19). If leakage continues, replace the packing by following the
numbered steps presented in the replacing packing procedure.
If there is undesirable packing leakage with other than spring‐loaded PTFE V‐ring packing, first try to limit the leakage
and establish a stem seal by tightening the packing flange nuts (key 21, figure 17, 18, or 19) to at least the minimum
recommended torque in table 7. However, do not exceed the maximum recommended torque in table 7 or excessive
friction may result. If leakage continues, replace the packing by following the numbered steps presented in the
Replacing Packing procedure.
If the packing is relatively new and tight on the valve plug stem, and if tightening the packing flange nuts does not stop
the leakage, it is possible that the stem is worn or nicked so that a seal cannot be made. The surface finish of a new
stem is critical for making a good packing seal. If the leakage comes from the outside diameter of the packing, it is
possible that the leakage is caused by nicks or scratches around the packing box wall. While replacing the packing
according to the Replacing Packing procedure, inspect the valve plug stem and packing box wall for nicks or scratches.
Adding Packing Rings
Key numbers referred to in this procedure are shown in figure 17, 18, or 19, unless otherwise indicated.

When using packing with a lantern ring (key 24) it may be possible to add packing rings above the lantern ring as a
temporary measure without removing the actuator from the valve body.
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, also shut‐off all pressure lines to the power
actuator, release all pressure from the actuator. Use lock‐out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in
effect while you work on the equipment.
2. Remove the packing flange nuts (key 21) and lift the packing flange, upper wiper, and packing follower (keys 19, 27,
and 28) away from the valve body.
3. It may be possible to dig out the old packing rings on top of the lantern ring, but use care to avoid scratching the
valve plug stem or packing box wall. Clean all metal parts to remove particles that would prevent the packing from
sealing.
4. Remove the stem connector and slip the packing rings over the end of the valve plug stem.
5. Reassemble the packing follower, upper wiper, packing flange, and packing flange nuts (keys 28, 27, 19, and 21).
6. Reconnect the body‐actuator stem connection according to the appropriate actuator instruction manual.
7. Tighten the packing flange nuts only far enough to stop leakage under operating conditions. Check for leakage
around the packing follower when the valve is being put into service. Retighten the packing flange nuts as required
(see table 7).
Replacing Packing
WARNING
Refer to the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section in this instruction manual.
Key numbers referred to in this procedure are shown in figure 17, 18, or 19, unless otherwise indicated.
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, also shut‐off all pressure lines to the power
actuator, release all pressure from the actuator. Use lock‐out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in
effect while you work on the equipment.
2. Remove the cap screws in the stem connector, and separate the two halves of the stem connector. Then exhaust all
actuator pressure, if any was applied, and disconnect the actuator supply and any leakoff piping.
3. Remove either the yoke locknut (key 32) or the hex nuts (key 30), and remove the actuator from the bonnet (key
18).
4. Loosen the packing flange nuts (key 21) so that the packing (keys 22, 23, 209, or 210, figure 3) is not tight on the
valve plug stem (key 6). Remove any travel indicator disk and stem locknuts from the valve plug stem threads.
CAUTION
When lifting the bonnet (key 18), be sure that the valve plug and stem assembly (keys 5 and 6) remains on the seat ring
(key 4). This avoids damage to the seating surfaces as a result of the assembly dropping from the bonnet after being lifted
part way out. The parts are also easier to handle separately.
Use care to avoid damaging gasket sealing surfaces.
The HPD and HPAD piston rings (key 8) are brittle and in two pieces. Avoid damaging the piston rings by dropping or rough
handling.

5. Hex nuts (key 14) attach the bonnet to the valve body. Loosen these nuts or cap screws approximately 3 mm (1/8
inch). Then loosen the body‐to‐bonnet gasketed joint by either rocking the bonnet or prying between the bonnet
and valve body. Work the prying tool around the bonnet until the bonnet loosens. If no fluid leaks from the joint,
proceed to the next step.
6. Unscrew the hex nuts (key 14) and carefully lift the bonnet off the valve stem. If the valve plug and stem assembly
starts to lift with the bonnet, use a brass or lead hammer on the end of the stem and tap it back down. Set the
bonnet on a cardboard or wooden surface to prevent damage to the bonnet gasket surface.
7. Remove the valve plug (key 5), bonnet gasket (key 11), cage (key 2), seat ring (key 4), and the seat ring gasket (key
12).
CAUTION
Inspect the seat ring, cage, bonnet, and body gasket surfaces. These surfaces must be in good condition, with all foreign
material removed. Small burrs less than approximately 0.076 mm (0.003 inches) in height (the thickness of a human hair)
can be ignored. Scratches or burrs that run across the serrations are not permitted under any conditions, since they will
prevent the gaskets from sealing properly.
8. Clean all gasket surfaces with a good wire brush. Clean in the same direction as the surface serrations, not across
them.
9. Cover the opening in the valve body to protect the gasket surface and to prevent foreign material from getting into
the valve body cavity.
10. Remove the packing flange nuts (key 21), packing flange (key 19), upper wiper (key 27), and packing follower (key
28). Carefully push out all the remaining packing parts from the valve side of the bonnet using a rounded rod or
other tool that will not scratch the packing box wall. For extension bonnets, also remove the baffle (key 36 ) and
retaining ring (key 37).
11. Clean the packing box and the following metal packing parts: packing follower, packing box ring (key 26), spring
or lantern ring (key 24), and, for single arrangements of PTFE V‐ring packing only, special washer (key 25).
12. Inspect the valve stem threads for any sharp edges that might cut the packing. A whetstone or emery cloth may
be used to smooth the threads if necessary.
13. Remove the protective covering from the valve body cavity, and install the seat ring and cage using a new seat ring
gasket (key 12) and bonnet gasket (key 11). Install the plug, then slide the bonnet over the stem and onto the studs
(key 13). For a valve body with extension bonnet, also install the baffle and retaining rings (keys 36 and 37).
Note
The prelubricated hex nuts (key 14) referred to in step 14 can be identified by a black film coating on the nut threads.
The proper bolting procedures in step 14 include‐‐but are not limited to‐‐ensuring that the bonnet stud threads are clean, and that
the hex nuts are evenly tightened to the specified torque values.

repeat the crisscross pattern. Repeat this procedure until all nuts are tightened to the specified nominal value. Apply
the final torque value again and, if any nut still turns, tighten every nut again.
Note
When installing packing rings, prevent entrapping air between the rings. Add the rings one at a time without forcing them below
the chamfer of the packing box entrance chamber. As each successive ring is added, the stack should not be pushed down more
than the thickness of the added ring (figure 5).
15. Install new packing and the metal packing box parts according to the appropriate arrangement in figure 3. If
desired, packing parts may be pre‐lubricated with a silicon base grease for easier installation. Slip a smooth‐edged
pipe over the valve stem, and gently tamp each soft packing part into the packing box, being sure that air is not
trapped between adjacent soft parts.
16. Slide the packing follower, wiper, and packing flange into position. Lubricate the packing flange studs (key 20) and
the faces of the packing flange nuts (key 21). Replace the packing flange nuts.

2. To replace the valve plug stem (key 6), drive out the pin (key 7), and unscrew the stem from the valve plug.
CAUTION
Never reuse an old stem with a new valve plug. Using an old stem with a new plug requires drilling a new pin hole in the
stem. This weakens the stem and may cause the stem to fail in service. If a new valve plug is required, always order a valve
plug, stem, and pin as an assembly. Specify the correct part number of each of the three parts, but state that the parts are
being ordered as an assembly.

Lapping Seats
Key numbers referenced in this procedure are shown in figure 17, 18, or 19, except where indicated.
A certain amount of leakage should be expected with metal‐to‐metal seating in any valve body. If the leakage
becomes excessive, however, the condition of the seating surfaces of the valve plug and seat ring can be improved by
lapping. (Deep nicks should be machined out rather than ground out.) Use a good quality lapping compound of a
mixture of 280 to 600‐grit. Apply the compound to the bottom of the valve plug.

Note
HP Series valves use spiral‐wound gaskets. These gaskets provide their seal by being crushed and therefore should never be
reused. This includes reusing a gasket after the lapping procedure has been performed.
And ”old” gasket can be used to lap the seat, however the gasket must be replaced with a new gasket.
To preserve the effects of lapping, do not change either the position of the seat ring in the valve body cavity or the position of the
cage on the seat ring after lapping the seating surfaces. When the parts are removed for cleaning and replacement of the “old”
gaskets, return them to the original positions.

Trim Replacement
WARNING
Observe the warning at the start of the Maintenance section.
After all trim maintenance has been completed, reassemble the valve body by following the numbered steps below. Be
certain that all gasketed surfaces have been well cleaned. Key numbers referenced in this procedure are shown in
figure 17, 18, or 19, except where indicated.
CAUTION
Inspect the seat ring, cage, bonnet, and body gasket surfaces. These surfaces must be in good condition, with all foreign
material removed. Small burrs less than approximately 0.076 mm (0.003 inches) in height (the thickness of a human hair)
can be ignored. Scratches or burrs that run across the serrations are not permitted under any conditions, since they will
prevent the gaskets from sealing properly.
CAUTION
The pressure balancing holes in the valve plug are necessary for the proper and safe operation of the valve. Inspect the
balancing holes every time the valve is disassembled for service. Any build-up, blockage, or clogging of the balance holes
should be removed.
1. Install the seat ring gasket (key 12) into the valve body. Install the seat ring (key 4).
2. Install the cage.
Note
When installing the standard cage, align two of the holes in the cage with the centerline of the valve body. Refer to figure 18.
Constructions other than TSO trim
1. To install the piston rings and seal rings (key 8), proceed as appropriate:
For an HPD or HPAD valve, if it is necessary to install new piston rings, the replacement piston rings will arrive in one
piece. Use a vise with smooth or taped jaws to break a replacement piston ring into halves. Place the new ring in the
vise so that the jaws compress the ring into an oval. Compress the ring slowly until the ring snaps on both sides. If one
side snaps first, do not try to tear or cut the other side. Instead, keep compressing until the other side snaps. The
piston ring can also be fractured by scoring and snapping over a hard surface such as a table edge. Sawing or cutting is
not recommended.
Remove any protective tape or covering from the valve plug and stem assembly, and set it on a protective surface.
Then, place the piston rings in the piston ring grooves with the fractured ends matched.
For an HPT or HPAT valve, install the seal ring (key 8) onto the valve plug (key 5). Install the ring with the open side
facing the seat ring end of the valve plug for flow‐down applications (view A of figure 20) or with the open side facing

onto the valve plug. Secure with the retaining ring (key 10).
For an HPAS Micro-Flat valve, ensure the Micro-Flat valve plug and stem assembly is oriented as shown in figure 10
when replacing the bonnet on the valve body. Then slide the bonnet over the stem and onto the stud bolts.
CAUTION
Micro-flat plugs must be installed as shown in figures 10 and18. This proper plug orientation increases the guide support
area for the plug and stem.

CAUTION
To avoid excessive leakage and seat erosion, the valve plug must be initially seated with sufficient force to overcome the
resistance of the C‐seal plug seal and contact the seat ring. You can correctly seat the valve plug by using the same force
calculated for full load when sizing your actuator. With no pressure drop through the valve, this force will adequately drive
the valve plug to the seat ring, thus giving the C‐seal plug seal a predetermined permanent set. Once this is done, the
plug/retainer assembly, the cage, and the seat ring become a matched set.
With full actuator force applied and the valve plug fully seated, align the actuator travel indicator scale with the lower end
of valve travel. Refer to the appropriate actuator instruction manual for information on this procedure.

2. Remove the plug/retainer assembly (with C‐seal plug seal), cage, and seat ring from the valve body following the
appropriate instructions in the Trim Removal section in this manual.
3. Locate the staked thread on top of the valve plug (figure 14). The staked thread secures the retainer. Use a drill with
a 1/8 inch bit to drill out the staked area of the thread. Drill approximately 1/8‐inch into the metal to remove the
staking.
4. Locate the break between sections of the piston ring(s). Using an appropriate tool such as a flat‐blade screwdriver,
carefully pry out the piston ring(s) from the groove(s) in the C‐seal retainer.
5. After removing the piston ring(s), locate the 1/4‐inch diameter hole in the groove. In a retainer with two piston ring
grooves, the hole will be found in the upper groove.
6. Select an appropriate tool such as a punch and place the tip of the tool into the hole with the body of the tool held
tangent to the outside diameter of the retainer. Strike the tool with a hammer to rotate the retainer and free it from
the valve plug. Remove the retainer from the plug.
7. Use an appropriate tool such as a flat‐blade screwdriver to pry the C‐seal plug seal off the plug. Use caution to avoid
scratches or other damage to the sealing surfaces where the C‐seal plug seal makes contact with the valve plug
(figure 15).
8. Inspect the lower seating surface where the valve plug contacts the seat ring for wear or damage which would
prevent proper operation of the valve. Also, inspect the upper seating surface inside the cage where the C‐seal plug
seal contacts the cage, and inspect the sealing surface where the C‐seal plug seal makes contact with the plug
(figure 15).
9. Replace or repair trim parts according to the following procedure for Lapping Metal Seats, Remachining Metal
Seats, or other valve plug maintenance procedures as appropriate.
Lapping Metal Seats (C‐seal Constructions)
Before installing a new C‐seal plug seal, lap the lower seating surface (valve plug to seat ring, figure 15) following
appropriate procedures in the Lapping Seats section in this manual.
Remachining Metal Seats (C‐seal Constructions)
See figure 16. A valve plug with a C‐seal metal plug seal features two seating surfaces. One seating surface is found
where the valve plug contacts the seat ring. The second seating surface is found where the C‐seal plug seal contacts
the upper seating surface in the cage. If you machine the seats on the seat ring and/or plug, you must machine an
equal dimension from the seating area in the cage.
CAUTION
If metal is removed from the seat ring and plug and a corresponding amount is not removed from the cage seating area, the
C‐seal plug seal will be crushed as the valve closes and the C‐seal retainer will strike the seating area of the cage, preventing
the valve from closing.

5. Using an appropriate tool such as a center punch, stake the threads on top of the plug in one place (figure 14) to
secure the C‐seal retainer.
6. Replace the piston rings following instructions in the Trim Replacement section in this manual.
7. Return the seat ring, cage, plug/retainer assembly, and stem to the valve body and completely reassemble the valve
package following the appropriate instructions in the Trim Replacement section in this manual.
CAUTION
To avoid excessive leakage and seat erosion, the valve plug must be initially seated with sufficient force to overcome the
resistance of the C‐seal plug seal and contact the seat ring. You can correctly seat the valve plug by using the same force
calculated for full load when sizing your actuator. With no pressure drop through the valve, this force will adequately drive
the valve plug to the seat ring, thus giving the C‐seal plug seal a predetermined permanent set. Once this is done, the
plug/retainer assembly, the cage, and the seat ring become a matched set.
With full actuator force applied and the valve plug fully seated, align the actuator travel indicator scale with the lower end
of valve travel. Refer to the appropriate actuator instruction manual for information on this procedure.

Parts Ordering
Each body‐bonnet assembly is assigned a serial number, which can be found on the valve body. This same number also
appears on the actuator nameplate when the valve body is shipped from the factory as part of a control valve
assembly. Refer to the number when contacting your Emerson sales office
or Local Business Partner for technical
assistance or when ordering replacement parts.
WARNING
Use only genuine Fisher replacement parts. Components that are not supplied by Emerson Automation Solutions should
not, under any circumstances, be used in any Fisher valve, because they may void your warranty, might adversely affect the
performance of the valve, and could cause personal injury and property damage.
