1. GENERAL
1.1 Scope of the Manual
This instruction manual contains important information
regarding the installation, operation and troubleshooting
of the Jamesbury® 1/4” – 2” (DN8 – 50) Eliminator Model B
Ball Valves with ISO Bonnet. Please read these instructions
carefully and save for further reference.
WARNING:
AS THE USE OF THE VALVE IS APPLICATION SPECIFIC, MANY FACTORS
SHOULD BE CONSIDERED WHEN SELECTING A VALVE FOR A GIVEN
APPLICATION. THEREFORE, SOME OF THE SITUATIONS IN WHICH THE
VALVES ARE USED ARE OUTSIDE THE SCOPE OF THIS MANUAL.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE USE, APPLICATION
OR COMPATIBILITY OF THE VALVE WITH THE INTENDED SERVICE,
CONTACT METSO FOR MORE INFORMATION.
WARNING:
DOUBLESEATED BALL VALVE DESIGNS, LIKE THE ELIMINATOR
SERIES, CAN UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS TRAP FLUID IN THE
BALL CAVITY. RAISING THE TEMPERATURE OF THE TRAPPED
FLUID CAUSES THE INTERNAL VALVE PRESSURE TO RISE. EXTREME
TEMPERATURE RISE CAN BUILD UP EXCESSIVE PRESSURE WHICH
COULD LEAD TO UNCONTROLLED PRESSURE RELEASE. DAMAGE
OR PERSONAL INJURY MAY RESULT.
1.2 Valve Markings
Non ASME rated Eliminator valves [9FB & 9NB] do not
have an identication plate. Important valve information
is stamped directly on the bottom of the valve body. (See
Figure 1a).

THE PRESSURE OR TEMPERATURE LIMITATIONS MARKED ON THE
VALVE IDENTIFICATION PLATE, OR BODY, MAY CAUSE DAMAGE
AND LEAD TO UNCONTROLLED PRESSURE RELEASE. DAMAGE OR
PERSONAL INJURY MAY RESULT.
WARNING:
SEAT AND BODY RATINGS!
THE PRACTICAL AND SAFE USE OF THIS PRODUCT IS DETERMINED
BY BOTH THE SEAT AND BODY RATINGS. READ THE IDENTIFICATION
MARKINGS AND CHECK BOTH RATINGS. THIS PRODUCT IS
AVAILABLE WITH A VARIETY OF SEAT MATERIALS. SOME OF THE SEAT
MATERIALS HAVE PRESSURE RATINGS THAT ARE LESS THAN THE
BODY RATINGS. ALL THE BODY AND SEAT RATINGS ARE DEPENDENT
ON VALVE TYPE AND SIZE, SEAT MATERIAL, AND TEMPERATURE. DO
NOT EXCEED THESE RATINGS!
WARNING:
BEWARE OF BALL MOVEMENT!
KEEP HANDS, OTHER PARTS OF THE BODY, TOOLS AND OTHER OBJECTS
OUT OF THE OPEN FLOW PORT. LEAVE NO FOREIGN OBJECTS INSIDE
THE PIPELINE. WHEN THE VALVE IS ACTUATED, THE BALL FUNCTIONS AS
A CUTTING DEVICE. DISCONNECT ANY PNEUMATIC SUPPLY LINES, ANY
ELECTRICAL POWER SOURCES AND MAKE SURE SPRINGS IN SPRING
RETURN ACTUATORS ARE IN THE FULL EXTENDED/RELAXED STATE
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY VALVE MAINTENANCE. FAILURE TO DO THIS
MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY!
WARNING:
WHEN HANDLING THE VALVE OR VALVE/ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY, TAKE ITS
WEIGHT INTO ACCOUNT! NEVER LIFT THE VALVE OR VALVE/ACTUATOR
ASSEMBLY BY THE ACTUATOR, POSITIONER, LIMIT SWITCH OR THEIR

2. TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE
Remove the ow port protectors and check that the valve is
clean inside. Clean valve if necessary.
Flush the pipeline carefully before installing the valve.
Check the valve and the accompanying devices for any damage that may have occurred during transport.
Foreign objects, such as sand or pieces of welding elec-
trodes, will damage the ball and seats.
Store the valve carefully. Storage indoors in a dry place is
recommended.
3.2 Installing in the pipeline
Do not remove the ow port protectors until installing the
valve.
Move the valve to its intended location just before installation.
The valve is usually delivered in the open position.
Refer to the Section 4, MAINTENANCE for stem seal adjust-
ment. If there is weepage past the stem seals upon installa-
tion, it means the valve may have been subject to wide tem-
perature variations in shipment. Leak- tight performance
will be restored by a simple stem seal adjustment described
3. INSTALLATION
in the MAINTENANCE section.
3.1 General
Screwed end valves have NPT threads. To insure a leak tight
joint, liberal use of a compatible pipe joint compound is
necessary. The Eliminator may be installed for ow in either
direction. It is recommended, however, that a screwed valve
be installed with the body cap facing upstream. Use standard
piping practices when installing valves with threaded parts.
When tightening the valve to the pipe, apply the wrench to
the end nearest the pipe being worked (see Figure 3).
Wrench here (hex ats)
when installing or removing
pipe this end.
Jamesbury
Figure 3 Wrench Instructions
It is not recommended to install the valve with the stem on
the underneath side because dirt in the pipeline may then
enter the body cavity and potentially damage the stem
seals (see Figure 4).
Wrench here (ats)
when installing or
removing pipe
this end.
3.3 Valve Insulation
Jamesbury Thread-end Ball Valves do not require insulation.
If desired, the valve may be insulated; however, the insula-
tion must not continue above the upper level of the valve
(see Figure 5).
Insulation Limit
Figure 5 Insulation Limit
3.4 Commissioning
Ensure that there is no dirt or foreign objects left inside the
valve or pipeline. Flush the pipeline carefully. Make sure
that the valve is fully open when ushing.
IMO 7/18
IMO-213 EN 5
Ensure that all nuts, ttings, and cables are properly fastened.
If so equipped, check that the actuator, positioner and/ or
switch is correctly adjusted. Actuator adjustment is explained
in Section 5. To adjust any accompanying device(s) refer to
the separate control equipment instruction manuals.
4. MAINTENANCE
4.1 General
Although Metso’s Jamesbury valves are designed to work
under severe conditions, proper preventative maintenance
can signicantly help to prevent unplanned downtime
and in real terms reduce the total cost of ownership. Metso
recommends inspecting valves at least every ve (5) years.
The inspection and maintenance frequency depends on the
actual application and process condition.
Always loosen and tighten fasteners with the appropriate
wrench to avoid damaging the valve, handle, linkage,
actuator, ttings or ats.
1. Routine Maintenance consists of tightening the
compression plate hex head cap screws periodically to
compensate for the wear caused by the stem turning
against the stem seals. Check to make sure that the
compression plate hex head cap screws are tightened to
the torque listed in (Table 1).
2. Overhaul Maintenance consists of replacing seats and
seals. A standard Repair Kit consisting of these parts may
be obtained from your Metso Distributor (See Table 4).

NOTE: Repair Kits contain the seats and stem seals for
both the re-tested and non-re-tested valves. Refer to the
ASSEMBLY Section for details on the correct installation of
these parts.
WARNING:
FOR YOUR SAFETY IT IS IMPORTANT THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS
BE TAKEN PRIOR TO REMOVAL OF THE VALVE FROM THE PIPELINE
OR BEFORE ANY DISASSEMBLY:
WEAR ANY PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT NORMALLY
REQUIRED WHEN WORKING WITH THE FLUID INVOLVED.
DEPRESSURIZE THE PIPELINE AND CYCLE THE VALVE AS FOLLOWS:
A. PLACE THE VALVE IN THE OPEN POSITION AND DRAIN THE
PIPELINE.
B. CYCLE THE VALVE TO RELIEVE RESIDUAL PRESSURE IN THE BODY
CAVITY BEFORE REMOVAL FROM THE PIPELINE.
C. AFTER REMOVAL AND BEFORE ANY DISASSEMBLY, CYCLE THE
VALVE AGAIN SEVERAL TIMES.
4.2 Disassembly
NOTE: If complete disassembly becomes necessary it is
recommended to replace all seats and seals. Refer to the
Repair Kit chart (see TABLE 4)
NOTE: Always use original OEM parts to make sure that the
valves functions properly.
This section covers disassembly of the non-welded valve
after removal from the piping. NOTE: Seal-welded, ASME
Class 600 [9_A & 9_M] products cannot be disassembled.
1. Comply fully with all WARNINGS prior to working on

opening facing up.
3. Insert the seat (5) into the body (1) with the at side down,
as shown in (Figure 7).
4. Place the stem bearing (24) on the stem (4). NOTE: Fire-Tite
valves have 2 stem bearings (13) and a secondary stem seal
(7) as shown in (Figure 8).
5. Insert the stem (4) with the bearing(s) into the valve body
and through the stem bore in the body, as shown in
(Figure 8).
6. Holding the stem in place from the inside, install the stem
seal (8) and the compression plate (20). For valves with
graphite stem seals (8), install upper stem bearing (10) and
anti-extrusion ring (55) prior to installing the stem seal (8).
7. Place the disc springs (31) on the hex head cap screws (29).
Disc spring orientation is shown in (Figure 8). Install the
hex head cap screws through the compression plate and
bring them down hand tight.
8. While pressing the stem (4) outward from inside the body,
tighten the hex head cap screws to the torque provided
in (Table 1). Apply torque evenly, alternating between
the two cap screws so that the compression plate will be
parallel with the valve body bonnet.
9. Align the stem to the ball slot. Insert the ball (3) so that the
internal stem blade ts into the ball slot.
10. To prepare for nal assembly, obtain a torque wrench.
When assembling without a torque wrench, install the
body cap (2) into the body (1) without the second seat
or the body seal. Tighten rmly by hand or snug with a
wrench. Draw a line across the body joint to identify the
fully installed position (See Figure 10). The line should be
clearly visible on both the body (1) and the body cap (2).
Remove the body cap (2) and continue with the assembly.
11. Insert the second seat (5) with the at facing up. Insert the
body seal (6).
12. Apply Loctite™ 272 or equivalent thread locking compound
to the threads in a single generous bead, 360 degrees
around the body cap (2) threads. Spread the compound
until threads are evenly coated. Ideally, thread roots
will be lled with the compound with only the crests
protruding (See Figure 9).
13. Install the body cap (2) hand tight. Wipe away excess
Loctite.
14. With a torque wrench, tighten the body cap (2) to the
torque listed in (Table 2). When assembling without
a torque wrench, tighten the body cap (2) until fully
installed and the lines made in step 10 show the body
cap (2) has rotated past the fully aligned position (Figure
9). Wipe away excess Loctite.

5. ACTUATOR MOUNTING
5.1 General
These actuator mounting instructions describe the steps
required to assemble the Jamesbury ¼ - 2” (DN8-50) Standard
Bore, Series Eliminator Model B Thread-end Ball Valves to
IMO 7/18
IMO-213 EN 7
actuators. Linkage kits that are needed to mount specic Metso
actuators to dierent types and sizes of Jamesbury valves can
be identied by Metso or your authorized Metso Distributor.
5.2 Valve Preparation
1. With the valve removed from the pipeline, turn the
valve to the closed position.
2. On valves with handles, remove the handle. DO NOT
loosen the hex head cap screws (29), (see Figure 8).
WARNING:
FOR YOUR SAFETY IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE FOLLOWING
PRECAUTIONS BE TAKEN!
BEFORE INSTALLING THE VALVE AND ACTUATOR, BE SURE THE
INDICATOR POINTER ON TOP OF THE ACTUATOR IS CORRECTLY
INDICATING THE VALVE’S POSITION. FAILURE TO ASSEMBLE THESE
TO INDICATE THE CORRECT VALVE POSITION COULD RESULT IN
DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY!
WHEN INSTALLING A LINKAGE KIT OR SERVICING THE VALVE/
ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY, THE BEST PRACTICE IS TO REMOVE THE
ENTIRE ASSEMBLY FROM SERVICE!
AN ACTUATOR SHOULD BE REMOUNTED ON THE SAME VALVE
FROM WHICH IT WAS REMOVED. THE ACTUATOR MUST BE
ADJUSTED FOR THE PROPER “OPEN” AND “CLOSE” POSITIONS EACH
TIME IT IS REMOVED!
THE LINKAGE KITS HAVE BEEN DESIGNED TO SUPPORT THE WEIGHT
OF THE METSO ACTUATOR AND RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.
USE OF THE LINKAGE TO SUPPORT ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT OR
ADDITIONAL WEIGHT SUCH AS PEOPLE, LADDERS, ETC., MAY
RESULT IN THE FAILURE OF THE LINKAGE, VALVE, OR ACTUATOR;
AND MAY CAUSE DAMAGE OR PERSONAL INJURY!
When these valves are equipped with an actuator, and the
actuator is removed to service the valve, proper alignment
of the actuator driver and valve stem is essential when the
actuator is remounted.
Linkage kits that are needed to mount specic Metso
actuators to dierent types and sizes of Jamesbury valves
can be identied by Metso or your authorized Metso
Distributor.
3. Slide the bearing (3) into the bracket (2) until about half
of its width is protruding from the bottom of the top
bracket ange.
4. Inspect the coupling (1) and locate the end that will
engage the actuator.

5.4 Bracket Attachment to Valve
1. Lower the bracket/coupling assembly on the valve,
aligning the slot in the bottom of the coupling (1) with
top of the valve stem.
2. Align the four bracket mounting screw holes with the
tapped holes on the valve bonnet.
IMO 7/18
8 IMO-213 EN
3. Insert the four hex head cap screws (6) and lockwashers
(7) into the tapped holes. Tighten to values in Table 5.
5.5 Actuator versus Valve Position
IMPORTANT: The actuator and valve position must agree
before further assembly.
Since the valve has already been set in the closed position
(Step 1 under Valve Preparation), make sure that the actuator
is also in the closed position. EXCEPTION: if mounting a
spring-return actuator for “spring-to-open” operation; cycle
the valve to the open position and proceed with the actuator
AND valve in the open position.
5.6 Coupling to Actuator
Key Drive Actuators (Figure A): Install the key (4) into the key
slot of the coupling (1). The key should be led to closely t
into coupling and actuator keyway. If the t is loose, apply
Loctite® Keyt or equivalent.
Male/Female Square Drive Actuators (Figure C): No coupling
prep required.
5.7 Bracket Attachment to Actuator
1. Place the actuator onto the valve and bracket assembly
aligning the holes in the bracket with the holes in the
actuator, and aligning the actuator drive with the
coupling. Install the four hex head cap screws (8) and
four lockwashers (9) through the bracket and into the
actuator. Apply slightly more than nger-tightness to
these fasteners, but DO NOT TIGHTEN.
2. Cycle the actuator a couple of times, allowing the
assembly to position itself for proper actuator-drive to
valve-drive alignment. Tighten the four hex head cap
screws (8) securing the bracket to the actuator using the
values in Table 5 or 6 as applicable.

The actuator travel stops should be adjusted so that there
is proper ball position in the full open and full close valve
position. Use the following procedures to determine correct
ball position.
Valve Open Position: With the valve in the open position
(actuator is against the “OPEN” travel stop), The maximum
allowable misalignment of the ball port in relation to the
body port is 1/32 inch (0.8 mm) on either side of the ball. Do
not use the seat ID to measure misalignment since, in many
cases; it is larger than the ball or body port.
Valve Close Position: With the valve in the closed position
(actuator is against the “CLOSE” travel stop), make a
pencil mark on the ball at the 9:00 o’clock and 3:00 o’clock
locations as shown in (Figure 6). Open the valve part way,
and measure dimension “A”. This measurement should
deviate no more than ± 1/32 inch (± 0.8 mm) from the value
given in (Table 8) for all valves.
