3. Installing the retainer ring:
a. Valves with PTFE seal rings do not require a retainer ring gasket (key 16).
b. Valves with metal seals require a retainer ring gasket (key 16). The gasket is not pre-punched for insertion of
retainer screws. The holes are not necessary for press-fit retainer rings.
CAUTION
When handling the new retainer ring gasket, be sure to avoid kinking, cracking, or breaking the gasket. Damage to the
gasket can cause leakage between the seal retainer and valve body.
c. Lay the gasket (key 16) down so that it is accurately centered on the valve body.
4. For valves with press-fit retainer rings
a. Wipe excessive oil off the retainer ring outside diameter, and off the retainer counterbore in the valve body.
b. Rotate the disc to the open position.
