DISASSEMBLY and REASSEMBLY
The following instructions cover the disassembly and reassembly of the ½”-
2” Y- Globe valves.
WARNING
Prior to performing disassembly, close off the line pressure to
the valve, and release all pressure in the valve.
Extreme care should be taken to ensure that the lower stem (025) and disc
(004) do not separate when removed as one unit until both are adequately
supported. Failure to do so may cause the disc to fall off the stem, and may
cause damage to the disc and/or injury to personnel.
After removal of the disc from the valve, care should be taken to protect the
seating surface from damage. The disc should be placed in a clean area
until it is ready for replacement. THE SLIGHTEST NICK OR SCRATCH ON
A SEATING SURFACE MAY PREVENT COMPLETE SHUTOFF AND
NECESSITATE EXTENSIVE REWORK OR REPLACEMENT.
