Types C471, C477 and C486 Internal Valves

Failure to follow these instructions or 

to properly install and maintain this 

equipment could result in an explosion 

and/or fire causing property damage and 

personal injury or death.
Fisher™ equipment must be installed, 

operated and maintained in accordance 

with federal, state and local codes 

and Emerson Process Management 

Regulator Technologies, Inc. (Emerson)

instructions. The installation in most 

states must also comply with NFPA 

No. 58 and ANSI Standard K61.1.
Only personnel trained in the proper 

procedures, codes, standards and 

regulations of the LP-Gas industry 

should install and service this equipment.
The internal valve must be closed except 

during product transfer. A line break 

downstream of a pump may not actuate 

the excess flow valve. If any break 

occurs in the system or if the excess 

flow valve closes, the system should be 

shut down immediately.

Introduction

Scope of the Manual

This manual covers instructions for the Types C471, 

C477 and C486 internal valves.

Description

The valves are typically used on the inlets and 

outlets of bobtail and transport trucks and on large 

stationary storage tanks. They can also be installed 

in-line. Designed for propane, butane or Anhydrous 

Ammonia (NH

3

) at ambient temperatures, the valves 

Figure 1. 

C471, C477 and C486 Series Internal Valves

can be used on other compressed gases, but the user 

should check with the factory to make sure the valves 

are suitable for the particular service.

DOT Internal Self-Closing Stop Valve Requirement–

U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations 

49CFR§178.337-

8(a)(4) require each liquid or 

vapor discharge outlet on cargo tanks (except for 

cargo tanks used to transport chlorine, carbon 

dioxide, refrigerated liquid and certain cargo 

tanks certified prior to January 1, 1995) to be fitted 

with an internal self-closing stop valve. Fisher 

“C” Series internal valves comply with the internal 

self-closing stop valve requirement under the 

DOT regulations.
