G4, G4ZHF AND G4R USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 5-14

Due to the tooling and associated equipment required

(presses, fixtures, etc.) to rebuild 10"–14" size valves, it is highly

recommended they be returned to the factory or a Flowserve

Authorized Black Tie Valve Rebuilder for repair and rebuild.

Many valves made by Flowserve Corporation handle corrosive

chemicals which may be injurious to property or personnel.

Valves returned without proper attention given to the safety

requirements will be shipped back to the consignor collect.
NOTE: Part number reference is shown in Figure V B-7.
1. Apply Durco seal 1028B to the inside of the tapered bore

in the body and permit to dry before assembly. RAD-1

material is used for nuclear applications.

2. Apply a light coating of oil or silicone to the interior of the

coining die or to the O.D. of the sleeve. Position the sleeve

in the coining die, part series #BY79542A, so that the

diagonal opposite sides of the sleeve port will lock behind

the metal lips in the body (Figure V B-2). The sleeve is then

pushed directly through the coining die into the valve body

until the sleeve drops below the top counterbore of the

valve body (Figure V B-1).

SECTION V
B. VALVE ASSEMBLY – 1"–8" G4, G4R

Push sleeve directly through coining

die until sleeve drops below top

counterbore of the valve body.

A special plug with retractable

or removable blades engages

the two remaining sleeve ports

and pulls them until they fall

behind the body port lips.

3. A special plug, part series

#BY79664A, containing

retractable or removable

blades is lowered into

the body with the blades

re tracted or removed. The

blades are then installed or

extended and a counter-

clockwise rotary motion is

applied to the plug engaging

the two remaining diagonal

oppo site sleeve port open-

ings and pulling them until

they fall behind the body port

lips. The plug is then ro tated back to its original position,

and the blades are then removed or retracted. The plug is

then removed from the body (Figure V B-2). In the 1" and

" sizes, a bar may be substituted for the locking plug.

See Figure V B-2A for a description of this operation.

4. Apply a thin film of oil on

the sizing plug, part series

#BY79555A, and push it into

the sleeve until the sizing

plug flange bottoms against

the counterbore of the valve

body (Figure V B-3). Allow

the sizing plug to remain in

this position for one minute.

5. Place the top cap (Part 3)

and adjuster (Part 12) over

the thrust collar. The adjuster

fasten ers should be threaded

into the top cap until flush

with the bottom (Figure

V B-4).

6. The diaphragm (Part 6) is

as sembled over the plug

stem with the aid of the G4

diaphragm guide, part series

#BY77543A (Figure V B-5)

and #BY79581A. The plug

stem and diaphragm guide

should be checked for nicks

before installing the dia-

phragm. Nicks on these

surfaces could result in

scratches on the lip of the

dia phragm.

7. The thrust collar is then

assembled over the plug

stem and driven into place

through the use of the thrust

collar guide, part series

#BY77545A, and an arbor

press (Figure V B-6).

FIGURE V B-3

The sizing plug is pushed

into the sleeve until the

sizing plug flange bottoms

against the counterbore of

the valve body.

FIGURE V B-5

If damaged, the plug taper and

1/2" in length of stem must be

repolished to a surface finish

of 16AA on the taper and stem.
