1.1Scope of the manual
This manual provides essential information for users of Neldisc® triple eccentric disc valves. If you need further information on actuators and other accessories, please refer to
the individual manuals on their installation, operation and
maintenance..
NOTE:
Selection and use of the valve in a specific application
requires close consideration of many different aspects.
Due to the nature of the product, this manual cannot
cover all the individual situations that may occur when the
valve is used.
If you are uncertain about use of the valve or its suitability
for your intended purpose, please contact Metso for more
information.
For valves in oxygen service, please see also the separate
installation, maintenance and operating instructions for
oxygen service (see Metso document id:10O270EN.pdf)
1.2Valve description
Neldisc series L6 is a double flanged type metal seated triple eccentric disc valve. Neldisc series L4 is a wafer type
metal seated triple eccentric disc valve.
The disc is elliptical and has a triple eccentric mounting.
When the valve is closed, the elliptical disc at the major axis
displaces the seat ring outward, causing the seat ring to
contact the disc at the minor axis. When the valve is
opened, the contact is released and the seat ring returns to
its original circular shape (see Fig. 1).
The disc is fitted to the shafts with pins and there are no
holes through the disc.
Construction details of individual valves are included in the
type code shown on the valve identification plate. To interpret the type code, please refer to Section 11.

1.5CE marking
The valve meets the requirements of the European Directive 2014/68/EU relating to pressure equipment, and has
been marked according to the Directive.
1.6Recycling and disposal
Most valve parts can be recycled if sorted according to
material.
Most parts have material marking. A material list is supplied
with the valve. In addition, separate recycling and disposal
instructions are available from the manufacturer. A valve
can also be returned to the manufacturer for recycling and
disposal against a fee.
1.7Safety precautions
CAUTION:
Do not exceed the valve performance limitations!
Exceeding the limitations marked on the valve may cause
damage and lead to uncontrolled pressure release.
Damage or personal injury may result.
CAUTION:
Do not dismantle the valve or remove it from the pipeline while the valve is pressurized!
Dismantling or removing a pressurized valve will result in
uncontrolled pressure release. Always isolate the relevant
part of the pipeline, release the pressure from the valve
and remove the medium before dismantling the valve.
Be aware of the type of medium involved. Protect people
and the environment from any harmful or poisonous substances. Make sure that no medium can enter the pipeline
during valve maintenance.
Failure to do this may result in damage or personal injury.
CAUTION:
Beware of the discs cutting 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 disc functions as a cutting
device. The position of the disc can also be changed when
moving the valve.
Close and detach the actuator pressure supply pipeline for
valve maintenance.
Failure to do this may result in damage or personal injury.
CAUTION:
When handling the valve or the valve package, bear in
mind its weight!
Never lift the valve or valve package by the actuator, positioner, limit switch or their piping.
Place the lifting ropes securely around the valve body (see
Fig. 3).
Damage or personal injury may result from falling parts.
CAUTION:
For safety reasons use a blind flange after the valve
always when the pipe line is terminated immediately
after the valve.
NOTE:
Do not turn the disc more than 90° as this could damage
the seat. The valve is so constructed that the disc operates
only between 0-90°.
2TRANSPORTATION, RECEPTION AND
STORAGE
Check the valve and the accompanying devices for any
damage that may have occurred during transport.
Store the valve carefully before installation, preferably
indoors in a dry place.
Do not take the valve to the intended location and do not
remove the flow port protectors until the valve is installed.
The valve is delivered in the closed position. A valve
equipped with a spring-return actuator is delivered in a
position determined by the spring. During storage the
valve must be lightly closed.
3INSTALLATION
3.1General
Remove the flow port protectors and check that the valve is
undamaged and clean inside.
CAUTION:
When handling the valve or the valve package, bear in
mind its weight!
Follow the lifting methods shown in Fig. 3.
CAUTION:
Beware of noise emissions!
The valve may produce noise in the pipeline. The noise
level depends on the application. It can be measured or
calculated using Metso Nelprof computer software.
Observe the relevant work environment regulations on
noise emission.
CAUTION:
Beware of a very cold or hot valve!
The valve body may be very cold or very hot during use.
Protect yourself against cold injuries or burns.
Fig. 3.Lifting of the valve
2 L6 70 en5
Flow direction B
The recommended
position of the
perforated plate is at
the "top" of the
pipeline, on the
downstream side and
to flow direction B.
3.2Mounting into the pipeline
Flush or blow the pipeline carefully before installing the
valve. Foreign particles, such as sand or pieces of welding
electrode, will damage the disc sealing surface and seat.
The valve may be installed in any position and offers tightness in both directions (L6C/D, L6F/D). L6F offers tightness
in one direction.
Install the valve in the pipeline so that the shaft is horizontal if possible. However, we do not recommend installing
the valve with the actuator on the underside because dirt in
the pipeline may then enter the body cavity and damage
the gland packing.
If the valve is equipped with a flow balancing trim (type
code S-...), it must be on the down stream side of the valve
body. The valve must be mounted so that the perforated
plate will not collect any impurities in the pipeline (see
Fig. 4).
Not recommended mounting position coding for valveactuator unit if using S-disc: A-HL, B-HL, C-HL and D-HL.
Select flange gaskets according to the operating conditions.
Do not attempt to correct pipeline misalignment by means
of flange bolting.
Fig. 5.Mounting after a pipe elbow
Fig. 6.Mounting after the centrifugal pump
Fig. 4.Position of the flow balancing trim
It may be necessary to firmly support the pipeline to protect the valve from excess stress. Sufficient support will also
reduce pipeline vibration and this ensures proper functioning of the positioner. Do not fasten supports to the flange
bolting or to the actuator.
It is recommended that the length of any straight pipe
preceding the control valve is at least 2 x pipe diameter.
The flow causes a so-called dynamic torque against the
valve disc which attempts to close the valve. In a pipe
elbow the pressure on the outer edge is higher than on the
inner edge.
When installing the triple eccentric disc valve immediately
after a pipe elbow, the valve shaft must be directed toward
the centre point of the pipe (see Fig. 5). This is especially
important when the valve is used as a control valve.
The valve shaft of a valve mounted after the centrifugal
pump must be perpendicular to the pump shaft (see Fig. 6).
When thus installed, the valve discs will be more evenly
loaded and vibrations otherwise possible in the intermediate positions will be eliminated.
When mounting the valve it must be in a closed position
and be carefully centred between the pipe flanges so that
the turning disc does not touch the pipe edge or flange
gaskets, see Fig.7 and Table 1.
Use caution when installing valve with Spring-to-open
actuator. Valve must be in closed position during installation if the disc exceeds the Face-to-face length. Energy supply for the actuator must be safely fastened and it cannot
suffer damage or break off during the installation.
In case of sudden shutdown of the energy supply the valve
will open unexpectedly due to pre-stressed spring package.
This may cause significant harm to people and material
around the valve.
In valves with certain nominal sizes some flange bolts do
not pass the valve body. The valve body is thus equipped
with holes, see Fig. 8 and Tables 2...6.
Ensure that the disc can turn to the open position after preliminary tightening of the flange bolts. The actuators of
control valves can be equipped with position stops which
usually only allow the disc to open 80°.
Lenght of stud bolts in Tables 2...6 are based on:
gasket thickness of 3 mm
heavy nuts
flange thickness of weldneck flanges per ASME
If necessary, the valve may be insulated. Insulation must not
continue above the upper level of the valve body, see Figure 9.
Fig. 9Insulation of the valve
3.3Actuator
When installing the actuator on the valve, make sure that
the valve package functions properly. See instructions for
installing in Section 6.
Observe the space needed for removal of the actuator.
The upright position is recommended for the actuator cylinder.
The actuator must not touch the pipeline, because pipeline
vibration may damage it or interfere with its operation.
In some cases, e.g. when a large-size actuator is used or
when the pipeline vibrates heavily, supporting the actuator
is recommended. Please contact Metso’s Automation business for further information.

4COMMISSIONING
Ensure that no dirt or foreign objects are left inside the
L2
valve or pipeline. Flush the pipeline carefully. Keep the
valve 30–40° open during flushing.
When starting up the pump, ensure that the valve in the
pipeline is closed or, at the very most, 20° open.
A waterhammer, which follows the start-up of high-capacity pumps, creates a torque peak in the disc. This can damage the pin connection between disc and shaft when the
valve is 30–90° open.
The packing construction is live loaded. If the leakage
occurs, re-tighten the gland nuts but don't exceed the values in the Tables 7, 8 and 9 by 50 % or do not fully compress
the disc springs.
5MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Observe the safety precautions mentioned in Section
1.7 before maintenance!
CAUTION:
When handling the valve or the valve package as a
whole, bear in mind the weight of the valve or the
entire package.
CAUTION:
For safety reasons the retaining plates MUST always
be installed according to Section 5.3.
5.1Maintenance general
Although Metso’s Neles valves are designed to work under
severe conditions, proper preventative maintenance can
significantly help to prevent unplanned downtime and in
real terms reduce the total cost of ownership. Metso recommends inspecting the valves at least every five (5) years. The
inspection and maintenance interval depends on the actual
application and process condition. The inspection and
maintenance intervals can be specified together with your
local Metso experts. During this periodic inspection the
parts detailed in the Spare Part Set should be replaced.
Time in storage should be included in the inspection interval.
Maintenance can be performed as presented below. Fo
maintenance assistance, please contact your local Metso
office. The part numbers in the text refer to the exploded
view and to the parts list in Section 9, unless otherwise
stated.
NOTE:
When sending goods to the manufacturer for repair, do
not disassemble them. Clean the valve carefully and flush
the valve internals.
For safety reasons, inform the manufacturer of the type of
medium used in the valve (include material safety data
sheets (MSDS)).
NOTE:
In order to ensure safe and effective operation, always use
original spare parts to make sure that the valve functions
as intended.
82 L6 70 en
NOTE:
For safety reasons, replace pressure retaining bolting if the
threads are damaged, have been heated, stretched or corroded.
5.2Removing the valve from the pipeline
CAUTION:
Do not dismantle the valve or remove it from the pipeline while the valve is pressurized!
It is generally most convenient to detach the actuator and
its auxiliary devices (see Section 6), before removing the
valve from the pipeline. If the valve package is small or difficult to access, it may be more practical to remove the entire
package at the same time.
Ensure that the valve is not pressurized and the pipeline is
empty. Ensure that the medium cannot flow into the section where servicing is to take place. The valve must be in a
closed position when removing.
Support the valve carefully with a hoist. Place ropes carefully and unscrew the pipe flange bolts. Ensure that the
ropes are positioned correctly. Lift valve correctly (see
Fig. 3).
5.3Replacing the gland packing
CAUTION:
Do not dismantle the valve or remove it from the pipeline while the valve is pressurized!
PTFE V-rings are used as a standard gland packing and
graphite rings for high temperature constructions. The
packing construction is live loaded as standard.
The gland packing (20) must be changed if leakage occurs
even after the hex nuts (25) have been tightened as recommended.
5.3.1L6C, L6D, L6F/D and L4F/D
Make sure the valve is not pressurized.
Unfasten the nuts (25) and remove the disc spring
(TA-Luft) kits (43), the retaining plates (42) and the
gland (9).
Remove old packing rings (20). Do not damage the
surfaces of the packing ring counterbore and shaft. It
is not necessary to change anti-extrusion ring (22).
Clean the gland and packing ring counterbore.
Install new set of packings (V-ring or graphite). Slip
the rings onto the shaft. Ensure that there are no
burrs in the keyway groove which could damage the
packing.

5.4Valve leakage
Valve leakage is not always caused by a damaged seat ring
or disc. The reason can also be that the disc is not in the
closed position.
Check the position of the actuator relative to the
valve. The screws may be loose or the bracket damaged.
Check the adjustment in the closed position (see
Section 6.4).
The marking line parallel to the disc on the valve shaft head
shows roughly the closed position of the disc (see Fig. 14).
Pressure shocks can cause loosening of the pin connection
between disc and shaft; consequently the shaft moves
while the disc remains in place and this prevents full closing
of the disc.

closed
If the reason for the leakage does not become apparent
after doing the above, the valve must be disassembled for
replacing the parts.

5.5Replacing the seat ring
CAUTION:
Do not dismantle the valve or remove it from the pipeline while the valve is pressurized!
Ensure that the valve is not pressurized.
Remove the valve from the pipeline. The valve must
be in a closed position during removal.
Follow the lifting methods shown in Section 3.
5.5.1L6C, L6D, L6F/D and L4F/D
Remove the clamp ring (2) by untightening the
screws (27).
Remove the old body seal (19) and the seat ring (4).
Change the seat ring if it is damaged.
Clean all the surfaces of the seats and check the sur-
face of the seat ring.
Check also the condition of the disc. A damaged disc
must be changed (see Section 5.6).
Check the condition of the pin connection. Repair it
if necessary (see Section 5.6).
Mount a new, self-adhesive body seal (19) into the
body. The surface must be clean and free of grease.
Handle the ends of the seal according to Fig. 15.
Centre the seat ring (4) carefully into its groove and
turn the disc to maintain light contact with the seat.
Mount the clamp ring and tighten the screws (27)
lightly.
Turn the disc slightly open and pull it back to set the
seat into the proper position.
Tighten the screws (27) crosswise and evenly. First to
50 % of recommended torque, then to 100 %.
Recommended torque values for screws are listed in
Table 10. An unevenly tightened flange may damage
the seat ring. The screw heads must be below the
flange surface in lug type valves.
Mount the actuator into the valve. Adjust the closed
position limit and check the open position limit (see
Section 6).
5.5.2L6F
Remove the clamp ring (2) and the old seat ring (4).
Clean up graphite from the body groove.
Polish the contact surface of the new body seal with
emery paper (grade 240). Also polish the edge of the
disc.
Spray a thin layer of dry lubricating fluid, e.g.
Molykote 421R, to the edge of the disc.
Mount a new graphite body seal (19) to the body
and then the seat ring (4).
Mount the clamp ring (2). Tighten the screws (27)
lightly, so that the seat ring (4) is still moveable.
Ensure that the valve is well supported on a stable,
horizontal surface.
Turn the disc with a suitable lever to the horizontal
(=fully closed) position. Lock the lever to this position, e.g. using a lifting crane, to prevent the disc
moving in the open direction. See Fig. 16.
Tighten the screws (27) crosswise, see Table 10 for
recommended torques.
Operate the disc to the open position and check the
contact between the seal and the disc. The trace left
in the disc by the seat should be continuous around
the disc. If not, remount the seat ring.
Fig. 15.Mounting the body seal
Spray a thin layer of dry lubricating fluid, e.g.
Molykote 321R or equivalent, into the seat groove,
surfaces of the clamp ring, seat ring and screws.

ing to section 5.5.
Set the valve horizontally on a sturdy surface so that
the flat side of the disc lays against the surface (see
Fig. 17).
Fig. 17.Drilling the pins
Drill the holes carefully to the centre of the pins (14).
Choose a drill 0.2-0.5 mm smaller than the diameter
of the pin.
Drill the holes deep, but not enough to reach the
disc.
Pull the pins out.
Dismantle the gland packing including anti-extru-
tion ring (22), when applicable, according to
Section 5.3.
Detach the screws (26) and the blind flange (10) and
remove the gasket (18).
Place rubber strips or other protection between the
disc edge and the body and remove the shafts (see
Fig. 18).
Remove the bearings (15, 16).
Clean and check all parts carefully.
Fig. 18.Protecting the disc during disassembly and assembly
5.7Assembling the valve
Replace damaged parts with new ones.
Set the disc and the shaft together beforehand. In
case the pin holes have been damaged during
removal of the old pins the holes can be drilled to a
larger pin size. File off any burrs from the shafts.
The bearings for the valves (N, U and H constructions) are
cobalt alloy bushings which are mounted into the body
together with the shafts.
Mount the bearing into the shaft. Spray a thin layer
of dry lubricating fluid, e.g. Molykote 321R or equiva-
lent, into the inside surface of the bushing and the
shaft bearing groove. Press the bushing with a tight-
ening ring into the shaft bearing groove and fit the
shaft with the bearings carefully into the body
through the tightening ring.
Place the disc horizontally on a surface so that the
flat side of the disc lays against the surface. Lift the
body around the disc so that the shaft bores are
aligned with the bores in the disc. Protect the disc
(see Fig. 19).
Press the shafts into the disc drillings. Align the pin
holes. The shaft (11) position against the disc must
be according to Fig. 14.
NOTE:
Use only pins supplied by the manufacturer!
NOTE:
The pins must be pressed with enough force to deform them
so that the connection will be free from backlash.
Support the disc well in a horizontal position during
mounting of the pins. Push the new pins into the
holes and press them in a press to final form (see Fig.
19). Use a smaller tool than the pin diameter. See
Table 11 for forces.

6DETACHING AND INSTALLING THE
ACTUATOR
6.1General
CAUTION:
When handling the valve or the valve package, bear in
mind its weight!
CAUTION:
The actuator must not be removed from the valve in a
pipeline under pressure as result of dynamic torque!
Fig. 20.Actuator removal, B1 series
6.3Detaching the EC and EJ actuators
Disconnect the actuator from its power source;
detach the air supply pipe and control signal cables
or pipes from their connectors.
First detach the positioner, or any other accessory,
from the actuator, and detach the coupling plate
from the drive shaft. Next, the bushing is loosened
by turning the tightening screw counter-clockwise.
The tightening screw also acts as an extractor. It is
highly recommended to use a suitable bushing from
the tool set H061544 between the tightening screw
(I) and drive shaft. The bushing dimensions are given
in Table 12.
Detach the actuator finally from the valve after the
screws that attach the actuator to the valve have
been removed.
CAUTION:
Do not detach a spring-return actuator unless a stopscrew is carrying the spring force!
NOTE:
Do not turn the disc more than 90° as this could damage
the seat. The valve is so constructed that the disc operates
only between 0-90°.
NOTE:
Before dismantling, carefully observe the position of the
valve with respect to the actuator and positioner/limit
switch so as to ensure that the package can be properly
reassembled.
The actuator is factory-mounted on the valve and the
stroke limit stop screws are adjusted in advance.
6.2Detaching the B1 series actuators
Disconnect the actuator from its power source;
detach the air supply pipe and control signal cables
or pipes from their connectors.
Unscrew the bracket screws.
Detach the actuator using a suitable extractor. The
correct tool can be ordered from the manufacturer
(see Fig. 20).
Turn the valve to the closed position before mount-
ing the actuator.
Clean the shaft and the shaft bore and file off any
burrs which could interfere with mounting. Protect
the joint surfaces from corrosion, e.g. with Cortec
VCI 369 or an equivalent anti-corrosive agent..

If a bushing is required between the actuator shaft
bore and the valve shaft, mount it first in the actuator shaft bore.
The valve keyway is on the side opposite the flat side
of the disc. The actuator shaft bore has two keyways
set 90° apart.
For double-acting cylinder actuator, B1C, and spring-
return cylinder actuator, B1J (spring-to-close),
choose the keyway which establishes the piston in
its upper position (at the top end of the cylinder)
when the valve is closed.
In the spring-return cylinder actuator B1JA (springto-open), choose the keyway which establishes the
piston in its lower position when the valve is open.
Check visually that the actuator is correctly posi-
Fig. 22.Cone bushing installation
tioned relative to the valve. Tighten all the fastening
screws as tightly as possible.
Adjust the stop screws to the closed position (see
Section 6.7).
The opening angle in a control valve can be limited
by a stop screw to 80°. The opening angle of a shutoff valve is 90°.
When a shaft extension is required, the sizing of the
shaft extension must be discussed with the valve
manufacturer.
6.5Installing EC and EJ actuators
The actuator is attached to a bracket via an ISO 5211 standard mounting interface. The actuator is adapted to the
valve shaft with a separate bushing. The bushing (II + II) is a
two-piece cone-shaped bushing, which is tightened firmly
with a tightening screw (I) around the valve shaft.
The bushing and the tightening screw are inserted
Prior to installation, the correct keyway position of
The open or closed positions of the actuator can be
to actuator drive shaft according to Fig. 22. Cylindrical pins (III) are inserted in the bushing slots, and
these must be directed into the corresponding slots
in the actuator during tightening. Before the installation of the bushing and the tightening screw, impurities such as old threadlocking material have to be
removed from the threads of the tightening screw,
and Loctite 225 or similar. Threadlock have to be
carefully applied to the threads, as shown in Fig. 22.
The tightening screw can be turned from inside the
actuator shaft using a suitable hex key, Fig. 23.
the valve has to be checked. The bushing has four
keyways, two of which are intended for valves with
DIN key and two for valve shafts with ANSI key. The
DIN keyway is located in the split between the bushing halves, and the ANSI keyway is located in the
middle of the half bushing. Fig. 24 shows the keyway
position when the actuator is in a closed position.
identified either by using compressed air, see Fig. 25,
or by checking the position of the pointer at the end
of the drive shaft. The actuator is closed if the direction of the slot in the coupling plate is transverse to
the direction of the actuator's main line.
Fig. 23Tightening of the cone bushing
Fig. 24.Keyway positions on the actuator
Fig. 25.Actuator connections
142 L6 70 en
Mount the actuator to the valve bracket with four
screws. The tightening screw of the bushing should
be loosened before mounting, to allow the shaft to
fit easily into the actuator.
The actuator construction allows axial movement of
the drive shaft to compensate the valve shaft movement due to e.g. thermal expansion. Check, before
the screw is tightened, that the drive shaft is in the
upper position of its axial movement, which is its
normal position (the mounting position shown in
Fig. 23). Checking is important, as the actuator shaft
drops down slightly when the screw is tightened.
The drive shaft axial movement can be observed and
measured before attachment to a valve. The actuator
drive shaft is in the upper position when its upper
surface conforms to Table 13 (see Fig. 23).
The drive shaft will automatically find its correct
position if the installation tool H061904 (see Fig. 23)
is used. The installation tool is attached instead of
the coupling plate using M4 screws with the drive
shaft in lower position (before the valve is installed).
Tighten the nut of the tool in such a way that the
tool pulls the drive shaft to the uppermost position.
The position may be checked from the side of the
tool.
Install the actuator on the valve and attach the valve
mounting screws loosely by hand. Then tighten the
tightening screw (I) according to Table 13. The
required torque is also marked on a plate close to the
drive shaft on the actuator housing. The installation
tool is removed, and the coupling plate is reattached. Finally, tighten the valve mounting screws.
Check the axial position of the drive shaft. The shaft
position may not be at the upper or lower position X
given in Table 13, or close to those values. Remount
the actuator if the position is not correct.
The valve may malfunction if the tightening of
the connection has been carried out improperly.
Finally, the extreme rotation positions of the valve
are adjusted with the adjustment screws at the ends
of the actuator. The location of the screws for adjusting the close and open positions of the valve are
marked on the actuator housing (see Fig. 25). See
Section 6.7.
Table 13. Mounting faces, tightening screws and drive shaft
clearances
6.6Detaching and installing other
actuator types
See actuator’s manual for details.
6.7Stop screw adjustment
6.7.1General
Close the metal seated triple eccentric disc valve by turning
the disc with a torque against the seat. Choose the torque
from Tables 14, 15, 16 and 17 for adjusting the stop screw to
the closed position of the actuator. Try not to exceed the
given values since excessive torque would strain the seat
and the joint between the disc and the shaft. Always readjust the stop screw after changing the seat and after
mounting the actuator.
6.7.2Actuators other than tabulated
Close the valve as per the tabulated torque Mc and adjust
the stops accordingly. Note the increased torque created by
the actuator while the valve is closed.
NOTE:
Metso accepts no responsibility for compatibility of actuators not installed by Metso.
6.7.3Changing the mounting position
CAUTION:
The actuator must not be removed from the valve in a
pipeline under pressure as result of dynamic torque!
Always remove the actuator from the valve shaft before
mounting it into another key groove. Readjust the closed
position limit as instructed.
If manually operated, the valve should close when the
handwheel is turned clockwise. In a double-action cylinder,
the piston must be in the upper position of the cylinder
when the valve is closed. In this position the actuator creates maximum torque. Do not turn the disc more than 90°
as this could damage the seat.
