4. Keep the wedge in place while installing the lever, if necessary. Remove the wedge after you have clamped the
actuator lever on the valve shaft and have connected the lever to the actuator piston rod or diaphragm rod.
Determining Mounting Position
The actuator can be either right or left‐hand mounted, with the actuator on the right or left side when viewed from
upstream (see figure 9).
The Series B Vee‐Ball has one V‐notch. For right‐hand mounting (standard), the ball will be in the top of the valve body
when the valve is open and the shaft is horizontal. In this position the ball rotates CCW to Close. For left‐hand
mounting (standard), the ball will be in the bottom of the valve body when the valve is open and the shaft is horizontal.
In this position the ball rotates CCW to Close. An optional ball for left‐hand mounting, which rotates into the top of the
valve body when the shaft is horizontal, is also available. In this position the ball rotates CW to Close.
Determining Closed Position
1. The valve must be removed from the line to check the position of the ball.
WARNING
The Vee‐Ball closes with a shearing, cutting motion. To avoid personal injury, keep hands, tools, and other objects away
from the ball while stroking the valve.
2. Rotate the ball to the closed position.
3. Position the ball in the proper location
D When viewed from the valve body inlet, the ball is in the proper position when the flat spot on the top of the ball is
exactly in the center of the seal package.
Make a copy of the centering template in figure 13 out of a suitable stiff material. Place the centering template in the
opening at the seal (See figure 12). Find the center of the template and make sure the spot on the ball is centered
directly below it.
4. Adjust the actuator as described in the appropriate actuator instruction manual until the ball is centered in the
closed position. A line is stamped on the actuator end of the drive shaft (see figure 9) to indicate the ball position.
Use the appropriate actuator instruction manual and figure 9 of this manual when mounting the actuator or changing
actuator styles and positions.
Parts Ordering
A serial number is assigned to each valve and stamped on the nameplate. Always refer to the valve serial number when
corresponding with your
