Material Selection
Selecting the proper fastener material is the ultimate
responsibility of the customer because the supplier does
not typically know in what service the valves will be used
or what elements may be present in the en vironment.
Flowserve normally supplies B7 (carbon steel) for ductile
cast iron and carbon steel valves. For stain less steel and
high alloy valves, B8 (stainless steel) fasteners are supplied
as standard. All fasteners used must have a minimum yield
strength of 40,000 PSI, a minimum elongation of 12% and
be compatible with the process fluid. Determining compatibility to the process fluid goes beyond a material being
resistant to general corrosion because the more important
con sid eration is a material’s resistance to stress corrosion
cracking. Depending on the service, it may make sense to
use B7 fasteners on high alloy valves. One such service
would be marine environments because of stainless steel’s
susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking in chloride
environments. Another key aspect of fasteners is frequent
visual inspection. Because of the common practice of using
steel fasteners rather than stainless steel to avoid chloride
stress corrosion cracking, visual inspection is recommended to monitor the general corrosion of these fasteners.
If jacketing or insulation is used on a valve, it must be
periodically removed for visual inspection of the fasteners.
If you wish assistance in determining the proper fasteners
to use, please refer to the attached chart or contact
Flowserve Materials Engineering Group at (937) 226-4475.
Design & Type
The Flowserve valve design standards adopt ANSI B18.2.1
(1981) as the standard for fastener type and design. This
national standard requires that finished hex “head” cap
screws be used when the head of the fastener is turned. A
finished hex “head” cap screw and a heavy hex cap screw
have a bearing surface under the head to minimize frictional
resistance during tightening. They also comply to qualified
body dimen sions and fully formed head dimensions.
Cookeville Flow Control Division’s policy is to use finished
hex “head” and heavy hex “head” cap screws for all
pressure retaining fasteners. This includes top caps, packing
adjusters, plug adjusters, bottom caps, body halves or other
pressure retaining components. Compliance is made with
ANSI B18.2.2 (1987), Square and Hex Nuts, when studs and
heavy hex nuts are required. Additional information on these
items may be obtained from the Flowserve Corporation,
Cookeville Flow Control Division, Cookeville, Tennessee.

SECTION I
Safety Precautions
To ensure that the valve is installed in a safe manner, please
adhere to the following precautions before removal or
disassembly of any valve.
1. There is a possibility of pressurized media build
up behind the valve liner. Wear suitable protective
equipment for the fluid involved when removing a
valve from the pipeline.
2. Depressurize and bleed the line on both sides of the
valve before removing the valve.
Design Changes
In order to follow the Flowserve commitment to contin uous
improvement, we reserve the right to change product and
performance specifications without notice.
3. Check nameplate before installation to ensure that the
valve is not installed in systems where service conditions
exceed those for which the valve was designed.
4. Remove or install the valve with the disc in the closed
position.
5. Never attempt to adjust the disc in the seat while the
valve is pressurized.

SECTION II
INSTALLATION
BTV/BUV 2000
1. The protective covers provided on each valve should
remain in place during any storage and handling
operations.
2. The Durco Butterfly Valve is designed for installation
between ANSI Class 150 flanged piping systems. All
types of flanges are permissible if clearance is provided
for the swing of the disc and support is provided for the
valve liner. Table 3 lists disc swing clearance requirements for mating pipe flanges. IMPORTANT – Fittings
such as tees and elbows cannot be bolted directly to the
valve. Spacers must be used.
3. Check the valve nameplate before installation to ensure
that the pressure rating and materials of construction
are compatible with the intended service conditions.
4. Inspect adjoining pipelines and remove any material that
could damage the valve liner.
5. Use flange gaskets to protect the valve liner during
installation.
6. Keep the valve in the closed position during all handling
and installation operations. This is necessary to protect
the disc sealing edge from damage and to ensure proper
positioning of the liner until the valve is installed.
7. Keep the valve liner clean. Any dirt or debris left in the
valve can scratch the liner or disc edge. Such damage
can impair the bubble tight shutoff provided by this
valve.
8. Do not allow the liner to catch on the mating pipe I.D.
and fold over. This will cause flange leakage and severe
damage to the liner.
9. While the BTV valve is bidirectional and will function
properly with the shaft orientation either vertical or
horizontal, the preferred orientation is with the shaft
horizontal and the disc lower edge opening downstream
for optimal service life.
10. Proper alignment of the valve in mating flanges is
required. This is especially true if oversize bolt holes
are used in piping flanges.
Flange bolts should be torqued to values listed in Table 4.

14. For recommended flange bolting sizes and lengths, refer
to Tables in Section XI and XII.
DO NOT run sharp instruments between the valve and liner
or between the liner and the pipe flanges. This practice will
result in severe liner damage.
TABLE 3
TABLE 4
Flange Bolting Torques
These are minimum torque values as established in Section
VIII of the ASME Boiler Code. Your piping practices,
materials and gaskets may dictate the use of torque values
greater than those listed. Refer to Section VIII of the ASME
Code for proper bolting torques.

1. Place the valve in a vice or other suitable support. Do
not clamp on the face of the liner. Leave the disc in the
closed position during disassembly.
2. Remove the wrench, gear or actuator assembly from
the mounting plate.
3. Remove the mounting plate from the top of the valve by
removing two socket head screws.
4.
Loosen several turns but do not remove the retainer
plate screws on the top and bottom. CAUTION – Retainer
plates are under spring loading.
5. Loosen and remove the four bolts that hold the body
halves together.
6. Remove the top body half. Be careful not to lose the
body half bushings as they may drop out.
7. Remove the disc and liner assembly from the bottom
body half.
8. Complete the disassembly of top and bottom body
halves by removing the retainer plate screws, glands,
springs, bearings and stem seals.
9. CAREFULLY remove the disc from the liner. Use
extreme caution to avoid damaging the disc stem seal
convolutions or disc O.D. sealing surface. Once the liner
has been removed from the disc, it cannot be reused.
10. Clean and inspect all parts not contained in the repair kit
and replace if worn, damaged or heavily corroded.
11. If the disc is to be used again, carefully polish the
sealing edge of the disc to remove any scratches. Use
only 400 grit or finer sandpaper.

Align the disc in the closed position so the disc is
centered in the liner. Close alignment is important so use
a scale to ensure the disc is closely centered. Measure at
the 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock positions (Figure 25). These
measurements will be identical with the disc properly
centered. In a criss-cross pattern, tighten the 4 body bolts
and torque to the values listed in Table 4. Be sure to bring
the body halves together evenly. This will require gradual
tightening of each bolt. As the body bolts are tightened,
the disc may rotate out of alignment with the seat. If this
occurs, stop tighten ing immediately, realign the disc in the
seat, and then continue tightening the bolts. Failure to bolt
the body halves evenly will cause them to bind. This may
pre vent the body halves from mating completely using
the specified bolting torques. DO NOT EXCEED TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS ON BODY BOLTS. See note – Table 6.

torque the nuts to approximately 40 ft-lbs. This will seat
the PTFE thrust washers against the bearing surface of
the disc support bracket. Then tighten the second jam nut
against the first jam nut to 100 ft-lbs. Make certain that when
tightening the second jam nut, the first jam nut or the disc
support stud does not turn. When complete, tack weld the
jam nuts together (Figure 23).

Align the disc in the closed position so that the disc is
centered in the liner. Close alignment is important so use
a scale to ensure the disc is closely centered. Measure at 3
o’clock and 9 o’clock positions. These measurements will
be identical with the disc properly centered (Figure 25). The
valve is now ready for the actuator to be installed.
16. All Sizes
Tighten the 4 top retainer plate screws following the
instructions in step 15. After all four screws are torqued to
the values listed in Table 6, remove the two longest retainer
screws (installed in step 5). Place the mount ing plate (13)
on top of the retainer plate, reinstall the two long retainer
screws (Figure 24) and torque to the values listed in Table
6. See note – Table 6.
17. All Sizes
Carefully clean all exposed liner surfaces. Cycle the valve
5 to 6 times making sure the disc swings com pletely through
the liner in both directions. The initial breaking torque will
be high. Cycling the disc several times helps to “set” the
liner and seat energizer plus smooth out any ridges that may
have formed in the liner during assembly. A small amount of
lubricant, such as silicon, applied to the disc sealing diameter
will help reduce the initial torque. BE CAREFUL to avoid dirt
or grit contamination in the liner as

MANUAL GEAR OPERATOR INSTALLATION
BTV/BUV 2000
1. Close the valve. The flats on top of the stem should be
parallel with the valve flange face. NOTE: At this time
adjustments should be made to assure that the valve
body machined flanged surface (6) is parallel with the
disc. To accomplish this, place the valve body machined
flanged surface (6) on a level plate. Then position a
bubble level on the upper side of the shaft square and
adjust the shaft until com pletely level.
2. Rotate the gearbox handwheel (1) clockwise until the
gearbox pointer (2) indicates the “shut” position.
3. Place the gearbox on the valve mounting pad as shown in
Figure 26.
4. Loosen the gearbox stopping screws (3) and (7).
5. Install and tighten the gearbox bolts (4) with their
lockwashers.
6. Turn the gearbox closing stop screw (7) clockwise until it
stops, then tighten the lock nut (8).
7. Turn the gearbox handwheel (1) counterclockwise to
open the valve until the disc face is perpendicular to the
valve body flange face.
8. Turn the gearbox opening stop screw (3) clockwise until
it stops, then tighten the lock nut (5).
9. Cycle the valve from closed to open to closed again
using the gear operator. Recheck to make sure the disc
is centered on the seat by measuring the distance from
the machined surface on the disc edge to the inner edge
of the liner flanged surface (6) on the body. This should
be done at two points, at the 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock
positions. Both measurements should be equal.
