Instruction Manual
D100397X012
Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
If installing into an existing application, also refer to the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section in this
instruction manual.

CAUTION
When ordered, the valve configuration and construction materials were selected to meet particular pressure, temperature,
pressure drop, and controlled fluid conditions. Since some body/trim material combinations are limited in their pressure
drop and temperature ranges, do not apply any other conditions to the valve without first contacting your
office or Local Business Partner.
Before installing the valve, inspect the valve and pipelines for any damage and any foreign material which may cause
product damage.
1. Before installing the valve, inspect the valve and associated equipment for any damage and any foreign material.
2. Make certain the valve body interior is clean, that pipelines are free of foreign material, and that the valve is
oriented so that pipeline flow is in the same direction as the arrow on the side of the valve.
3. The control valve assembly may be installed in any orientation unless limited by seismic criteria. However, the
normal method is with the actuator vertical above the valve. Other positions may result in uneven valve plug and
cage wear, and improper operation. With some valves, the actuator may also need to be supported when it is not
vertical. For more information, consult your Emerson sales office or Local Business Partner.
4. Use accepted piping and welding practices when installing the valve in the line. Internal elastomeric parts may stay
in place during the welding procedure. For flanged valves, use a suitable gasket between the valve and pipeline
flanges.
CAUTION
Depending on valve body materials used, post weld heat treating may be required. If so, damage to internal elastomeric
and plastic parts, as well as internal metal parts is possible. Shrunk‐fit pieces and threaded connections may also loosen. In
general, if post weld heat treating is to be performed, all trim parts should be removed. Contact your Emerson sales office
or Local Business Partner for additional information.
5. With a leak‐off bonnet construction, remove the pipe plugs (keys 14 and 16, figure 8) to hook up the leak‐off
piping. If continuous operation is required during inspection or maintenance, install a three‐valve bypass around
the control valve assembly.
6. If the actuator and valve are shipped separately, refer to the actuator mounting procedure in the appropriate
actuator instruction manual.
WARNING
Personal injury could result from packing leakage. Valve packing was tightened before shipment; however, the packing
might require some readjustment to meet specific service conditions.
