B. Main Valve Disassembly:

1. Shut down the system in accordance with

Section VI.

2. Disconnect the external sensing line, if in-

stalled.

3. Though it is possible to disassemble the valve

unit while installed in a pipe line, it is rec om -
mend ed that main te nance be done in a shop
when pos si ble. The descriptions hereafter will
assume shop dis as sem bly. Remove valve
from pipe line.

4. Place the valve unit in a vise with the cover

dome (25) upwards.

5. Loosen the diaphragm fl ange bolts (11) and

nuts (12) uniformly.

6. Place matchmarks on body (23) and cover

dome (25) fl ang es. Completely remove bolt ing
(11,12). Remove the cover dome (25).

7. Grasp opposite edges of diaphragm (9) and

withdraw the ITA from within the cage (19).
Set the ITA aside.

8. Evenly loosen the cage cap screws (18) in

single revolution in cre ments until fully loos-
ened; remove cage cap screws (18).

9. Pull cage (19) up and out of body.

10. Remove o-ring cage seal (15).

11. Remove lower cage gasket (21).

12. If supplied, remove internal sensing drilled

plug (32) using 5/32" (4 mm) Allen key wrench.
NOTE: Valves with “Large Internal Sensing”
will not be equipped with any plug (32,33).

13. For metal diaphragm constructions, remove

diaphragm gasket (37) from body (23) di a -
phragm fl ange.

14. Remove body (23) from vise. Solvent clean

all removed metal parts.

C. Disassembly of the ITA:

1. Body Sizes 1/2" – 2". (See Figures 2 thru 5):

a. Obtain two pieces of square-section

barstock with a 3/8" - 7/16" dimension,
approximately 2 inches long.

b. Place plug into a vise using the bars of

a. above positioned on "fl ats" located on
plug (20) to prevent vise jaw marks from
direct surface contact with the plug (20).
Orient with diaphragms on topside.

c. Sizes 1/2" – 1": Remove diaphragm

locknut (7) by rotating CCW.

Sizes 1-1/4" – 2": Remove diaphragm
cap screw (7) by rotating CCW.

d. Remove upper diaphragm pressure plate

(8).

e. Remove diaphragm(s) (9, 9.1, 9.2, 9.9).

Examine diaphragm(s) to determine
wheth er failed; determine if operating
con di tions are ex ceed ing pressure drop
or temperature limits.

f. For composition diaphragm construction,

remove upper stem seal (14.1).

g. For metal diaphragm construction, re move

lower pusher plate gasket (14.4).

h. Remove lower diaphragm pusher plate

(10).

i. Remove middle stem seal (14.2).
j. Remove plug (20) from vise, rotate end-

for-end, and resecure in vise using same
metal bars of a. above.

k. Loosen seat nut (30) CCW (viewed

from above) ap prox i mate ly two (2) rev o -
lu tions.

l. Remove assembly (20, 27, 28, 29, 30)

from vise. Complete removal of seat disc
nut (30), seat disc washer (29), and seat
disc (28).

2. Body Sizes 2-1/2" – 4". (See Figure 6):

a. Place seat disc nut (30) into a vise with

the plug (20) oriented vertically. Do NOT
over-tighten nut (30) in vise.

b. Place closed-end hex wrench onto

di a phragm locknut (7). Place socket
wrench on 3/4" hex upper end of plug
(20). Loos en diaphragm locknut (7) while
holding plug (20) from rotating by socket
wrench. Remove diaphragm locknut (7)
after fully loosened and socket wrench is
removed.

c. Remove upper diaphragm pressure plate

(8).

d. Remove diaphragm(s) (9, 9.1, 9.2, 9.9).

Examine diaphragm(s) to determine
wheth er failed; determine if operating
