Assembly
1. When assembling, use a new bonnet gasket (key 6), and wipe all sealing surfaces (valve body, bonnet, and gaskets)
with a clean cloth. If the seat ring (key 2) was removed, install it in the valve body (key 1), and then torque the seat
ring retainer (key 4) into the valve body. Since there is no gasket between the seat ring and the valve body, make
sure that the mating surfaces are clean and free of nicks and scratches.
2. Replace the liner (key 5). Then, slide the valve plug and stem assembly (keys 3 and 10) into the valve body (key 1).
3. Mount the bonnet (key 14) onto the valve body (key 1), being careful not to damage the gasket.
Note
If the seating surfaces of the valve plug and seat ring require lapping, refer to the Lapping Seating Surfaces section before
continuing to assemble the valve.
CAUTION
Avoid product damage in the following step by taking care not to damage the packing while installing the bonnet.
4. If it is necessary to replace the packing, perform steps 10 through 16 of the Replacing Packing section. However, if it
is not necessary to replace the packing, make sure to install the bonnet carefully on the valve body to avoid
damaging the packing with the valve stem threads.
5. Lubricate the valve body studs and nuts (key 7) with anti
-
seize lubricant, and install the nuts (key 8) on the bolts.
Tighten the nuts in a crisscross pattern to no more than 1/4 of the nominal torque value specified in table 4 to
ensure a positive seal and even pressure on the bonnet.
