5.1.3 Low-E Packing
The Masoneilan Low-E (Low Emissions) Packing from Baker
Hughes is a high performance packing system capable of
containing fugitive emissions well below the specifications of
the most severe recommendations. It is also available as fire
proof configuration if required.
The packing is provided as a set of rings consisting of middle
rings and bound by end rings also referred to as anti-extrusion
rings. All of our Low-E solutions come with Live Loading
which is imperative to maintain a constant load on the packing
and is necessary for thermal cycling applications.
Applied properly, this packing exhibits below current
regulations. Consequently, it can effectively prevent fugitive
emissions leaks from a control valve. The Low-E packing
system can directly replace conventional packing, requiring no
modification to the control valve or actuator.
The packing material could vary depending on the
specifications and timing when the valve was ordered. It is
important to understand the specific packing material that is
being replaced.
Installation should be performed by a qualified technician.
The following paragraphs will provide guidance while Packing
Manual Ref. 34620 is also available.
5.1.3.1 Preparation
5.1.3.1.1 Stem
Inspect stem for any nicks or scratches on the surface
finish. Reject the stem for any of these reasons as they
may damage packing.
Note:
A properly etched part number on the stem in
the packing area will have no adverse effect on the
performance of the packing.
Stem finish should be 3-7 AARH (Ra 0,1/0,2).
5.1.3.1.2 Packing Box
Note:
Bonnets that have a lube hole or leak detection
port are unacceptable for use with the packing
arrangement.
CAUTION
CAUTION
WARNING
DANGER
Packing box should be clean and free of burrs, rust,
and any foreign matter. Parts can be cleaned with
denatured alcohol.
Note:
Packing box finish should be 125 AARH (Ra 3,2) or
better.
The packing box may be bored or honed oversize by up to
0.015” (0.38 mm) above the nominal diameter to improve
the finish. For instance, a nominal 0.875” (22.22 mm)
packing box may be bored or honed up to 0.890”
(22.60 mm) and the LE Packing will still seal properly.
Packing box must be finished to the bottom of the
bore.
5.1.3.1.3 Packing

or scratches on packing are observed. Check packing
instructions to ensure that it is in proper arrangement
(different packing materials contain arrangements specific to
the design).
