Packing Replacement
Removing the Old Packing
1. Relieve the pressure in the pipeline and close the valve.
2. If the actuator is powered, disconnect and lock out power to prevent accidental operation of the ac-
tuator.
3. Remove the two screws and nuts near the top of the gate and disengage the stem from the gate by
stroking the actuator (not the valve) to the open position.
4. Remove the gland nuts (A7), bolts (A5) and packing gland (A4).
5. Remove the used packing (A2), anti-extrusion ring (A9) if supplied and packing cord (A8) if sup-
plied, from the packing chamber.
