General Information
Liquid Controls valves are designed for a wide range of applications and flow rates and have minimum head loss. Careful engineering and construction ensure smooth, accurate, and controlled operation.
The V-Series mechanically actuated piston valves are available in 3” and 4” sizes, and are designed for mounting on the meter outlet to provide tight shut-off with
smooth and easy operation regardless of system line pressure. The valves may be manually operated or connected via a mechanical linkage to a preset counter on the meter for singe-stage closure (for low flow applications) or two-stage closure with dwell period to eliminate hydraulic shock. The valves are indexible in 90º increments for up, down, or side facing outlet.

V-15 & V -30 Valves
General
V-15 valves are designed for use on M-15 and M-25 positive displacement flowmeters; V-30 valves are for use on M-30, M-40, and M-60 positive displacement flowmeters.
V-15 & V-30 valve operation is smooth and easy regardless of the line pressure since the vector forces are directed at right angles to the valve opening mechanism and are never in opposition to it.
Depending on the preset, the valve may be operated as either a two-stage valve with dwell period shut-off or as a single-stage valve with abrupt shut-off. Single stage valves are recommended when the application flow rates are low.
How V-15 & V-30 Valves Work
Inside the valve housing, a cylindrical bore connects the valve inlet and outlet. Contained within the bore is a piston assembly . Measured liquid exiting the meter outlet is blocked from entering the valve inlet by the piston and seal.
As the meter operator shifts the handle to the open position, a mechanical linkage connecting the valve to the preset counter trip ring causes a latch to engage and hold the valve open allowing liquid to flow.
In the open position, the valve handle assembly compresses the piston spring and pulls the piston shaft and the piston away from the valve outlet. As the piston is pulled away, it disconnect s from the inlet seal, allowing liquid to flow.
Figure 1: V-15 & V-30 Valves
In most metering applications, closing the valve is a two­stage process. At a predetermined dwell period, the preset counter, while counting down to “0”, releases a latch mechanism, allowing the valve to close to approximately 10% of full flow. This initial closing causes the piston inside the valve to slide toward the outlet, restricting product flow.
As liquid is blocked by the piston, some product passes through the valve. The dwell period prevents hydraulic shock while permitting the preset counter to register the remaining flow.
As the preset counter reaches “0”, the preset counter trip ring disengages from the dwell position to the fully closed position. This action releases the valve handle and relaxes the piston spring, permitting the piston to contact the outlet ring seal and complete its closure, stopping product flow.

Accessories
Flanges
Flanges are offered in 3 and 4 inch BSPT and NPT sizes and weld types. Material of construction is aluminum. Teflon, Viton, and Buna seals and gaskets are available.
Linkage and Valve Handles
Valve handle and linkage assemblies (Figure 3) are accessories used when normal manual ON and OFF valve operation is desired. Different handle and linkage configurations can be ordered separately for field installations.
There are two valve handle options. When using a mechanical preset, the 40984 curved handle (provided as part of the linkage assembly) is used with both the V ­15 and V-30 valves. For applications without a preset, the A3750 faucet valve handle kit is used.
Unlike the V-7 Valves, the V-15 and V-30 linkage assemblies come complete with the 40984 handle. The available Linkage Assemblies for V-15 and V-30 valves are listed in the table below.

Relieve Internal Pressure
All internal pressure must be relieved to zero pressure before
disassembly or inspection of the meter or any of the meter accessories.
Serious injury or death from fire or explosion could result from
maintenance of an improperly depressurized and evacuated system.
Depending on the existing configuration, adding a V-15 or V-30 V alve may require modification of the outlet piping.
After the internal pressure is relieved from the system, drain all the fluid from the flowmeter and accessories. The outlet line can then be disconnected from the flowmeter.
Installing the Valve
The V-15 or V-30 valve is installed on the outlet side of the flowmeter. The valve may be installed in one of four orientations as shown in Figure 5. Determine the orientation desired and then attach the flowmeter using the four bolts and washers provided. Tighten the bolt s in a crossing pattern.
Installing the Linkage Assembly
The handle and linkage assembly is provided with the V­15 and V-30 Valves. The handle and linkage may need to be repositioned depending on the valve orientation. Refer to Figure 5 to determine the handle and linkage positions based on the valve orientation.
Rear Facing Outlet
Front Facing Outlet
The valve handle mounts on either side of the valve shaft. Mount the valve handle to the valve shaft and tighten. With the handle securely mounted to the valve shaft, the linkage assembly can be connected to the preset ring located under the mechanical register.
The linkage assembly connects to the preset ring via the ball joint extension (Figure 6a). The ball joint extension is mounted using the screw and nut provided.

Retrofit Installations (continued)
Mount the ball joint extension to the preset ring by threading the screw into one of the holes at the back of the register assembly. Thread the nut in place on the screw.
With the ball joint extension secure on the preset ring, attach the linkage assembly (Figure 6b). The linkage assembly may require adjustment in order to mount to the ball joint extension. If this is the case, either loosen the handle and reposition on the valve shaft, or loosen the nuts at the handle pivot (Figure 6c).
Once the handle and linkage assembly is secure, proceed with setting the dwell and zero shut-off as described on Pages 9-10.
Disassembling the Valve
The V-15 & V-30 Valves are under pressure from the compression spring. The safest method for opening the valve for service or maintenance is to place the valve on a flat surface with the valve outlet facing down.

cap and tighten by alternately tightening each screw a few turns so that the cup (Item 133) slides evenly over the guide (Item 138).
8. When the cap rests against the valve housing evenly , tighten all four screws in a crossing pattern.
9. If the valve shaft components were removed for inspection or replacement, reassemble the valve shaft components following the drawing above.
10. Insert the O-Ring (Item 450), the Inner bearing (Item
260), the next O-Ring (Item 455), the next bearing (Item 140), the shaft case seal (Item 270) and secure with the retaining ring (Item 564).
This completes reassembly. The valve may be placed back in service. Refer to Pages 6 & 7 for installation instructions.

Setting the Dwell
Correct linkage adjustments avoid hydraulic shock.
Hydraulic shock occurs when a volume (mass) of liquid moving at a high rate through a pipeline is stopped by a valve that is suddenly closed. When the flow stops abruptly, the mass of liquid acts as a battering ram, causing a shock effect within the metering system. The meter housing and internal parts receive the full impact since the valve is located at the meter outlet. The greater the mass, length of pipeline or velocity, the greater the hydraulic shock and the greater the damage possibilities.
T o prevent damage from hydraulic shock, a slow closure, two-stage valve and preset should be used with the meter . In some instances, mass, length of pipeline, or velocity are of such a magnitude that using a two-stage valve is ineffective. In this case, an impact absorbing, air cushioning device should be used as an added accessory.
The linkage between the valve and preset can be adjusted to increase or decrease product flow during the dwell period. T o make adjustment s shift the valve handle to the slow flow or dwell setting. (See the preset counter manual for more detail).
V-15 & V -30 Valves - Installation
Figure 11: Linkage Adjustment
Turn the two 9/16 inch linkage nuts (Figure 11) located on either side of the bracket to adjust the linkage for proper dwell.
On a right to left flow meter the nuts are moved to the right to increase dwell flow and moved to the left to decrease dwell flow.
On a left to right flow meter the opposite is true. Moving the nuts to the right decreases dwell flow and moving nuts to the left increases dwell flow.
While adjusting the nuts, it is important to hold the linkage rod firmly so that it does not move.
Proper adjustment is obtained when the far right wheel of the preset counter (Figure 12) slows to a readable rate and the characteristic dwell hiss is heard. Dwell hiss is a low, resonating sound caused by slow moving product through the valve.
When this is accomplished, tighten the adjusting nuts ensuring that the linkage bracket is free to move, but there is little slop between the linkage bracket and the adjusting nuts.

Adjusting Zero Shutoff (LC Preset)
Because of the interaction between the valve and the preset counter, some adjustment may be needed to the preset counter so that components work at optimum efficiency. Preset Counters assembled with meters at the factory are adjusted for proper shut-off timing. Due to meter system variations, such as flow rate and viscosity, it may be necessary to make zero shut-off adjustments.
At least two test runs should be completed before any adjustments are made. On all presets, make a test run using a value large enough to permit the meter to reach its normal flow rate. If it is determined after testing that an error in zero shut-off is indicated, correct the zero shut-off in the following manner.
1. Start by removing the eight screws that hold the bezel to the preset counter.
2. Remove the bezel (Figure 13a).
Figure 13a: Bezel Removal
3. Press the preset button directly below the units wheel until the set screw appears in the opening.
4. Use a screwdriver to loosen the set screw on the notch ring located on the left side of the units wheel (Figure 13b). This allows for the repositioning of the notch ring and units wheel.
5a. Early Shutoff
To correct an early shut-off, hold the notch ring in place (Figure 13c) and move the numbers wheel down enough to correct the misalignment.
5b. Late Shut-off
T o correct a late shut-of f, hold the notch ring in place (Figure 13c) and move the numbers wheel up enough to correct the misalignment.
6. After each adjustment, carefully tighten the set screw. Take care not to strip the threads with excessive torque.
7. After running two test runs, the zero should be centered in the window. If not, reset the notch ring and repeat the procedure.

Depending on the preset, the valve may be operated as either a two-stage valve with dwell period shut-off or as a single-stage valve with abrupt shut-off. Single stage valves are recommended when the application flow rates are low.
How VS-3 & VS-4 Valves Work

Relieve Internal Pressure
All internal pressure must be relieved to zero pressure before
disassembly or inspection of the meter or any of the meter accessories.
Serious injury or death from fire or explosion could result from
maintenance of an improperly depressurized and evacuated system.
Depending on the existing configuration, adding a VS-3 or VS-4 Valve may require modification of the outlet piping.
After the internal pressure is relieved from the system, drain all the fluid from the flowmeter and accessories. The outlet line can then be disconnected from the flowmeter.
Installing the Valve
The VS-3 or VS-4 valve is installed on the outlet side of the flowmeter. The valve may be installed in one of four orientations. Determine the orientation desired and then attach the flowmeter using the four bolts and washers provided. Tighten the bolts in a crossing pattern.
VS-3 & VS-4 Valves - Installation
Once the handle and linkage assembly is secure, proceed with setting the dwell and zero shut-off as described on Pages 9-10.
Installing the Linkage Assembly
The handle and linkage assembly is provided with the VS-3 and VS-4 Valves. The handle and linkage may need to be repositioned depending on the valve orientation.
The valve handle mounts on either side of the valve shaft. Mount the valve handle to the valve shaft and tighten the handle screw. With the handle securely mounted to the valve shaft, the linkage assembly can be connected to the preset ring under the mechanical register.
The linkage assembly connects to the preset ring via the ball joint extension (Figure 17a). The ball joint extension is mounted using the screw and nut provided.
Mount the ball joint extension to the preset ring by threading the screw into one of the holes at the back of the register assembly. Thread the nut in place on the screw.
With the ball joint extension secure on the preset ring, attach the linkage assembly (Figure 17b). The linkage assembly may require adjustment in order to mount to the ball joint extension. If this is the case, either loosen the handle and reposition on the valve shaft, or loosen the nuts at the handle pivot (Figure 17c).

If there is still force on the cap, remove two screws from opposite sides of the cap. While bracing the cap with one hand, remove the other two bolts and carefully release the cap until the compression spring exerts no force.
3. Note the orientation of the cap and valve handle. Remove the cap (Item 124). The internal components are attached to the cap and will come out of the valve housing with the cap.
4. T o disassemble the cap assembly , it will be necessary to remove the four cotter pins which hold the cup (Item 133) to the links on each side of the cup. This is only necessary when replacing the compression spring or the cup.
5. To replace the dashpot washer (Item 727), remove the retaining ring (Item 559) from the end of the guide shaft.
6. Four screws (Item 627) and lock washers (Item 745) secure the guide (Item 138) and seals in place. These screws are accessed from the opening created when the cap (Item 124) and components were removed. Remove these four screws and washers to inspect and replace components as necessary.
The valve shaft (Item 368) is very difficult to remove, but it is not necessary to remove it in order to inspect or replace the O-Rings and bearings of the valve shaft.
7. Remove the retaining ring (Item 564) from one side of the valve shaft.
8. Remove the shaft seal (Item 270), the bearing (Item
140) the O-Ring (Item 456), the inner bearing (Item
