1. Verification upon receipt and storage before installation

On arrival of materials, it is recommended to:

• Check the integrity of the case/packing.

• Open the case and verify that there is no damage due to transportation.

• Do not open the barrier bag (if present).

• Verify that the contents are those stated on the packing list.

• Store the valves (unless damaged) in their original packing. Please observe the following:

1. Store the valves in a closed, clean and dry storage room.

2. Do not place packages directly on the ground.

3. Check the packages every two months.

4. Substitute the silica gel every six months. This is not applicable in the case of barrier bag packages.

2. Handling

During handling operations, valves must be lifted and handled as indicated in fig. 1 by using lifting equipment (fasteners, hooks, etc.) which must be sized and selected on the basis of the valve weight (indicated in the drawings).

If there are any eyebolts on the valve body, these can be used in order to lift the valve.

Do not use any lifting points located on the actuator to lift the valve. These lifting points are to lift the actuator only.

Lifting and handling must be done only by qualified personnel.

Warning

Installation and Maintenance Instructions

3. Installation

The valves must be installed in horizontal pipes with the stem in vertical position.

The following operations must be performed only immediately before the installation:

1. Remove the protection caps of the end faces.

2. Check the pipeline sections upstream and downstream. Make sure that there are no solid particles or any other kind of dirt or debris inside. If necessary, clean carefully by using an air line.

3. Pay attention to the flow direction.

Warning

Verify that the flow direction of the line corresponds to the flow direction indicated by the arrow on the valve body.

General notes

• In order to avoid damage during welding and post welding heat treatment, we suggest to disassemble the internal part following the instructions given in section 6 of this manual.

• In case that one end of the wire is not connected to the line for a period of time longer than half a day, the open end must be properly closed and sealed in order to prevent entry of dirt or debris.

• Check that there is enough space to easily disassemble the valve.

Position the valve and verify its alignment with the pipe. Proceed with welding in accordance with the procedure indicated by the engineering company that designed the plant.

During site welding of the valve to the pipe, the valve and adjacent piping must be supported so that the pipeline stresses are not transmitted to the valve body.

Usually, the first weld layer will be made with TIG, while following weld layers will be made with the appropriate electrode for the valve body material.

Warning

Before starting the installation of the valve, please verify that: the valve class is suitable for the required operating pressure, and the materials of construction are suitable for the intended service (type of process fluid).

Fig. 2 - Possible installation positions

Warning

Protect eyes with appropriate welding masks or goggles during all welding operations.

Welding and stress relieving procedures should conform to the applicable code or standard.

4. Scheduled maintenance

4.1 Routine inspection operations

Normal check

• Verify once a month that there is no leakage from packing or in the body/bonnet area. a. In case of leakage from the packing, tighten the appropriate gland nuts and bolts according to

the procedures described in the assembly section.

b. In case of leakage from the body/bonnet gasket, tighten the bonnet support bolts as stated in

the re-assembly procedure. Otherwise de-pressurize the line as soon as possible in order to prevent erosion.

• Verify bearings greasing and stem thread every two or three months, depending on operating frequency.

• For actuated valves, refer also to the actuator manual in addition to the above.

Preventive

• Verify the tightness of gland bolts every three months.

• Grease the stem and bearings every six months for motorized valves and every eight months for hand-operated valves.

• Check the travel of the gland follower every twelve months. Install a new packing when the end of the travel is approaching.

• Disassemble critical and/or actuated valves every 4 years. Verify the sealing surfaces and lap them if necessary. Substitute the bonnet gasket and the packing. Grease the stem.

• For the actuator, proceed as indicated in its maintenance manual.

5. Troubleshooting guide

Below is a list with the most common problems. However, the list does not include every possible problem that may occur.

5.1 Leakage from the packing

When there is humidity or droplets near the packing area, the stem or the gland, and these cannot be corrected by tightening the gland bolts, you may want continuing the work of the line until the first stop of the plant. In this case, the stem can be set in backseat position, verifying the following:

• Packing may have hardened. In this case, it must be replaced.

• The gland is at the end of its travel. This means that the packing cannot be compressed. Packing must be replaced.

• Scratches, scorings or other marks may be found in the stem. It may also have got bound. In these cases, the stem must be replaced.

• The gland may be jammed on the stem because of a non-uniform tightness of the gland bolts. Release the gland bolts. Move the gland and set it again; then tighten the bolts progressively.

5.2 Leakage from body/bonnet joint

Leakage under operation from the pressure seal joint requires immediate action, since it may cause major damage to the valve.

Typical causes for leakage are:

• Previous incorrect reassembly of the valve.

• Re-using pressure seal gasket.

• A defect inside the valve body.

5.3 Leakage between seat and disc

In case of leakage between seat and disc, we recommend to perform closing and opening operations with a pressure differential. If leakage persists, check that:

• No foreign material is locked between seat and disc, scoring the sealing surfaces.

• No foreign material is deposited between the seats, thus preventing the disc from closing.

• Incomplete previous closing allowed the fluid to impact onto the seal surfaces, eroding these.

• The valve has been used for line flushing, and therefore seats have been damaged by foreign material.

For all the above cases it is absolutely necessary to disassemble the valve as soon as possible and proceed with an inspection of the internal parts in order to reduce further damage.

5.4 Jamming of valve along the stroke

If a higher torque is required at some points along the stroke when opening/closing the valve, proceed as follows:

• Examine the stem and make sure that there is no picking-up either in the smooth or in the threaded parts.

• Disassemble the valve, as a seizure may be starting to form between body guides and disc.

5.5 Problems regarding motor operation

For these problems, please refer to the actuator instruction book.

6. Disassembly Instructions

Below are the procedures to follow to disassemble valves. Before starting any operation, it is important to:

• identify the problem

• clean the area around the valve that is to be disassembled

• arrange for a box and/or a pallet for all components

• arrange for a polyethylene sheet to protect all components and to avoid that any particles can inadvertently enter the body.

1. Remove the limit switches (95) by loosening and removing the cap head screws and nuts.

Store in a safe place.

2. Fully close the valve.

3. Turn the handwheel (47) anticlockwise to release the top coupling (73) from the stem

block(40).

4. Loosen and remove the nuts (26.1), remove the position indicator

5. Loosen and remove the nuts (9).

6. Using suitable lifting equipment, lift off the handwheel/yoke assembly.

7. Loosen and remove the gland nuts (17), gland flange (16) and gland (15).

8. Remove the safety ring (4).

9. Knock down bonnet (2) with soft-faced hammer to relieve load on the segment ring (5),

bypushing them outside through the four radial holes in the body

10. Reassemble the safety ring and nuts (4).

11. Tighten the nuts (11) of the bonnet bolts (10) evenly, until the bonnet is lifted. Remove the ring

(6) and the pressure seal gasket (7).

12. After the gasket has been removed, proceed by removing the bonnet (2) assembly with stem

(20) and disc(28).

Refer to figs. 3 and 4.

Warning

Before starting disassembly it is very important to verify – for your safety – that:

• the line is not pressurized

• the line is at ambient temperature

• the line is drained

• all electrical supplies have been switched off and disconnected prior to dismantling the valve.

7. Assembly Instructions

Before starting assembly it is recommended to verify the following points:

• Remove any dirt or particles with a wire brush or abrasive cloth; remove any oil or grease with a suitable solvent, to avoid damage cause by foreign particles – in particular on the sealing area.

• Never re-use the old gaskets, even though they seem to be in good shape.

• Verify that there are no scratches on the body sealing area.

1. Place the disc (28) on a clean flat surface, then fit the stem (20) into the disc.

2. Fit disc nut (30) over stem (20), screw into the disc (28) and then tighten. Ensure that the stem

is free to move. Then tack weld the disc nut to the disc.

3. Fit new O-rings (2a) , (37) and (38).

4. Fix the cylinder (31) to bonnet with screw (33).

5. Fit the bonnet assembly with stem (20) and disc (28) into the body (1).

Warning

Take care not to damage the O-ring (38) when fitting the bonnet (2) into the valve body (1).

6. Place a new pressure seal gasket on the bonnet.

7. Place the ring (6) and the segment rings (5).

8. Insert the safety ring (4) and tighten the nuts (10) to the torque values shown in table 2.

10. Fit the ground ring (13), a new gland packing (14), the gland (15), gland flange (16) and gland

nuts (17), and tighten the nuts evenly. DO NOT over-tighten as this will cause high friction loads on the stem.

11. Using suitable lifting equipment, carefully lower the hand wheel/yoke assembly onto the valve,

taking care not damage yoke studs (8). Secure the assembly by cross-tightening the yoke nuts(9).

12. Fit the position indicator (25)

13. Fit the limit switches (95) and secure them with cap head screws and nuts

14. Open and close the valve to check position and operation of the limit switches.

15. Before the system is restored, the stems (20 and 40) must be uncoupled and the stem

extension (40) fully retracted.

16. After the valve has been pressurized, verify that the nuts (9) are tightened to the torque values

indicated in table 2.

8. Spare parts list

Emerson guarantees the supply of any spare part for a period of at least ten years from the manufacturing date (month/year) indicated on the tag plate. The main objective in formulating a service parts inventory policy is the capability to provide prompt valve service, thus preventing extension of maintenance down time. To accomplish this, it is necessary to have the proper service parts immediately available for the optimum number of valves. This can be achieved at a minimum cost by defining the inventory on a frequency of need basis.

To assist in reaching this objective, the field service and repair organization of Raimondi recommends to follow these guidelines in order to establish inventory levels:

1. Identify the total number of valves in service by size, type number, pressure/temperature class, tag number.

2. Identify the frequency of replacement tendency of specific parts:

Class I Parts most frequently replaced. Class II Parts less frequently replaced, but critical in the event of an emergency requirement. Class III Parts seldom replaced Class IV Hardware (e.g. nuts, bolts, pins, cap components etc.) Class V Parts practically never requiring replacement

3. Operational reliability is defined as a probable percentage (%) of total, uninterrupted operational time that can be expected by stocking predetermined valve component classifications.

Determine the operational reliability which is compatible with a specific company’s operational

objectives and service parts inventory investment policy. Then relate operational reliability to part classifications, which will satisfy that need.

Guidelines are as follows: Parts classification Operational reliability

Class I 70% Class I and II 85% Class I, II and III 95% Class I, II, III and IV 99%

4. Consult recommended spare parts list by valve type to determine quantity of parts valves to be covered by the inventory plan.

5. Select parts and specify quantities.

Classification of spare parts

Classification Item N° Description

CLASS I 7 Pressure seal Parts most frequently replaced 14 Gasket 2a - 37- 37a - 37b - 38 O-ring

CLASS II 20 Stem Parts less frequently replaced but 15 Gland critical in case of an emergency 28 Disc 30 Disc Nut 33 Socket head screw

CLASS III 25 Position indicator Parts seldom replaced 16 Gland flange

CLASS IV 8 Body/Yoke stud Hardware (e.g. Nuts, Studs, Pins, ect) 9 Body/Yoke nut 10 Body/bonnet stud 11 Body/bonnet stud 18 Gland stud 17 Gland Nut

CLASS V Balance Parts practically never requiring replacement
