15. Rotate disc several times to allow seat to self-cen-

ter in the body. Again, check packing box nuts to be
certain they are tight, per step number 13. Do not
overtighten.

CAUTION: Do not over tighten packing box
nuts. This can cause excessive packing wear
and high shaft friction, which may impede shaft
rotation.

16. After the valve is fully assembled and seat leak

tested, use a compatible welding rod to tackweld
the taper pin to the disc at its thickest end. Later,
this will allow the taper pin to be removed after the
weld has been ground off.

Remounting Valve to Actuator

Before mounting a Valdisk 150 valve to a Valtek actua-
tor, verify that the disc rotation matches the actuator
rotation and complies with the air failure requirements.

Procedures for mounting the actuator are as follows.

1. Slide the entire actuator assembly onto the shaft.

To ensure full rotation of the disc, marks provided
on the end of the valve shaft and on the actuator
lever arm should be aligned.

2. Bolt the actuator yoke to the valve body. Be certain

the stroke indicator plate is positioned properly to
accurately indicate the valve’s rotation.

3. Adjust the actuator stroke stop bolts until the disc is

parallel to the seat surface.

CAUTION: Actuator stroke stop bolts must be
properly adjusted to prevent the valve disc from
overstroking. If incorrectly adjusted the valve
shaft may be twisted or sheared off.

4. Install the valve in line as outlined in the “Installa-

tion” section.
