REASSEMBLY
REASSEMBLY OF THE VALVES is simply the reverse of the
disassembly task; also read the following special instructions.
First, all dirt, scale and foreign matter should be removed from inside
the valve body and bonnet.
Before reassembling the valve, check the seating surfaces to
determine that no scratches or minor imperfections are on the disc or
seat ring. If any are evident - lap these surfaces until no
imperfections are visible. (Reference Para. 9.3).
Prior
to
installing
the Rapid Change Kit or Bellows Assembly, ensure
that the keyhole in the stem clamp is lined up with the keyway on the
stem. Ensure that the stem clamp is parallel with two of the
stanchion holes to prevent interference with the stanchions once
installed and rotation of the bellows assembly for line up, once
installed into the body.
The following torque values serve only as a guide in determining
approximate gland bolt nut torque values for 1878 Bellows-Sealed
