TESTING THE THERMAL SYSTEM
1.
Stop the flow of fluid through the line.
2.
Raise the temperature of the bulb above the set point temper-
ature by placing it in a container of hot water. This will cause
the plug to fully seat.
3.
Figure 15. With the valve plug seated in the bottom port "B,"
use a felt tip pen to mark the position of the packing gland
assembly on the stem.
4.
Place the bulb in a pan of cool water. Cool the bulb 30°F
(16°C) below set point so the valve is fully open.
5.
With the valve plug now seated on the upper port “U,” use the
pen to mark the new position of the packing gland assembly
on the stem.

the bonnet.
12. Replace bonnet [20] and stem [30] into valve body.
NOTE: You must replace the bonnet and stem before attempt-
ing to insert the packing. Otherwise, you may tear the packing
rings.

Gently push them into the packing chamber.
NOTE: Some kits do not include all the listed packing parts
(see page 12), but the order for part installation is the same.

Slide each V-ring [15b] over the stem and carefully push it into
the packing chamber.
