XXIII. Maintenance Tools and Supplies (Cont.)
C. Lapping Tools
The following tools are required for proper maintenance of
Pilot Operated Safety Relief Valve metal seats, and may be
purchased from BHGE.
1. Ring Lap: The ring lap is used for lapping the disc seat and
finish lapping of the nozzle seat.
2. Lapping Plate: The lapping plate is used for reconditioning
the ring lap. It may also be used for lapping the disc. One
11” (279.40 mm) diameter plate is required for the entire
line of valves (Part No. 0439004).
3. Lapping Compound: Lapping compound is used as
a cutting medium when lapping the valve seats, as
specified in Table 14.
4. Drift Pins: Two drift pins are required for the removal of
the disc from the disc holder. Refer to Figure 59 and Table
15 for Drift Pin specifications.
5. Nozzle Lap: The nozzle lap is used for lapping the nozzle
seat and has one flat side and one side with a 5° angle.
This lap guides in the bore of the nozzle; therefore, a
different size lap is required for each valve orifice (Table
16).
6. Lifting Tools: Lifting tools are used for the removal of
upper internal parts of larger valves, as specified in Table
17.
