F. Packing Ring Replacement:

1. Disassemble the body assembly (BA) per

V.C. previous, including separation of body
as sem bly (BA) from actuator assembly (AA).

2. Loosen packing gland nut (5) until fully dis-

engaged from bonnet (2) by rotating CCW
(viewed from stem (9) end). Remove pack-
ing rings (6) from packing box (re cess) in
bon net (2).

3. Examine wall surface inside the bonnet (2)

for any sign of cor ro sion.

4. Hone the bonnet’s (2) packing box to a #16

RMS fi nish. Burnish the stem sub-assembly
(9) to a #4 RMS fi nish in the packing (6)
contact area.

G. Reassembly of Body Assembly:

1. Place body assembly (BA) (1) in a vise with

the bonnet (2) end directed upwards.

2. Join the stem sub-assembly (9) to the bel-

lows sub-assembly (8) (with new plug head
(3) already installed) by ro tat ing the stem's
(9) lower end into em bed ded nut (8.2) CW
(viewed from bellows (8.1) open end). Ro-
tate the stem sub-assembly (9) as far as
possible while hand-grasping the bellows
(8.1) DO NOT USE A WRENCH IN THIS
OP ER A TION.
A light coat of Fluorolube
(™ of Occidental Chem i cal Co.) lubricant
may be applied to the en gaged (threaded)
end of the stem sub-assembly (9) if fl uid
com pat i ble.

3. Place spacer washer (10) over the threaded

upper end of stem sub-assembly (9).

4. Referring to Figure 7 for proper orientation

and quantity of Belleville spring washers (7),
place the spring washers (7) over the upper
end of stem sub-assembly (9).

5. Position a new bonnet gasket (11) into recess

of body sub-assembly (1).

6. Observe the underneath side of bonnet (2)

where square recess is located. Position
com bined bellows sub-assembly (8) and
stem sub-assembly (9) so that the anti-
ro ta tion "stop" (square part of stem)is aligned
to slip into the bonnet’s (2) square recess.

pos si ble permeation need considerations
similar to those outlined in Section III.C.1.

E. Plug, Bellows, or Both Replacement:

1. Disassemble the body assembly (BA) per

V.D.1.-11. previous.

2. Hand-grasp the bellows sub-assembly (8)

and hand-rotate the plug head (3) until the
plug retainer strip (4) ends come into view
thru the slot located on the side of the plug
head (3).

3. Using a pointed end pick tool, get under one

end of the plug retainer strip (4) and extract
thru the plug’s (3) slot. Manually rotate the
plug head (3) end to allow more of the plug
retainer strip (4) to be extracted. When able
to grasp with needle nose pliers, lightly pull
the plug retainer strip (4) and rotate the plug
head (3) as necessary until the strip (4) is
fully re moved.

4. Slide plug head (3) off the stub-end of the

bellows sub-assembly (8).

5. Discard the plug head (3), if worn. Always

discard the plug retainer strip (4); only use
a new plug retainer strip (4) at reassembly.

6. Do not attempt to fi eld remove embedded

nut (8.2) from inside the bellows (8.1); these
parts are only available as a sub-assembly
(8). If embedded nut (8.2) is badly corroded,
re place the entire bellows sub-as sem bly (8)
and give strong consideration to alternate
ma te ri als for stem sub-assembly (9) and
bellows nut (8.2). If em bed ded nut (8.2)
is “loose”, consider po ten tial causes and
re place bellows sub-as sem bly (8).

7. If bellows sub-assembly (8) is to be reused,

thor ough ly clean the valleys of the bellows
(8.1) con vo lu tions (inside and outside) for
the smallest of debris. Clean the grooves
of the bellows (8.1) and the plug head (3)
where the plug retainer strip (4) locates.

8. Place the plug head (3) over the bellows

sub-as sem bly (8) end. Insert a new TFE
plug re tain er strip (4) into the slot/groove.
Rotate the plug head (3) as necessary while
feeding the strip (4) until the strip (4) is fully
located into the groove. (No cutting of the
strip (4) should be required.)
