7.1.3 Bellows seal design
If the stem leaks, the bellows seal (pos. 20.3) is defective. The leak can initially be stopped
by tightening the stuffing box gland with nuts (pos. 20.29).
Stem and bellows (pos. 20.3) can only be replaced together.
Replacement of bellows seals:
- Remove actuator.
(Refer to operating instructions for actuator!)
- Loose nuts (pos. 11).
- Detach bellows assembly (pos. 20).
- Slacken nuts (pos. 20.29) by about 2-3 turns.
- Extract stem-bellows unit (pos. 20.3) from the
bellows housing (pos. 20.1).
- Drive pin (pos. 4) out with a drift.
- Unscrew stem-/bellows unit (pos. 20.3) and plug
(pos. 3).
- Bolt new parts together, drill and pin them.
- Replace 2 gaskets (pos. 20.19, 9).
- Assemble in reverse order.
- Secure with nuts (pos. 11) and tighten them
crosswise.
(For tightening torques refer to item 7.3.1)
- Tighten nuts (pos. 20.29) gradually up to tightness
of the stuffing box packing (pos. 20.10).
ATTENTION !
Refer to item 10.0 and 11.0 before dismantling the valve.
