8580 Valve

Valves with ENVIRO‐SEALt packing systems will not require this initial re‐adjustment. See ENVIRO‐SEAL Packing
System for Rotary Valves Instruction Manual (D101643X012) for packing instructions. If you wish to convert your
present packing arrangement to ENVIRO‐SEAL packing, refer to the retrofit kits listed in the parts kit sub‐section on
page 19 of this manual.
Maintenance
Valve body parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected regularly and replaced as necessary. The frequency
of inspection and replacement depends upon the severity of service conditions. Instructions are given in this section
for: replacing trim components, changing disk rotation or valve action, and mounting and adjusting the actuator.
As used in these instructions, actuator refers to power actuators (such as pneumatic diaphragm, piston actuators, and
rack and pinion actuators).
WARNING
Avoid personal injury and property damage from sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts. Before
performing any maintenance operations:
D Do not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
D Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any maintenance operations.
D Disconnect any operating lines providing air pressure, electric power, or a control signal to the actuator. Be sure the
actuator cannot suddenly open or close the valve.
D Use bypass valves or completely shut off the process to isolate the valve from process pressure. Relieve process pressure
on both sides of the valve. Drain the process media from both sides of the valve.
D Vent the power actuator loading pressure and relieve any spring precompression.
D Use lock‐out procedures to be sure the above measures stay in effect while you work on the equipment.
D The valve packing box may contain process fluids that are pressurized, even when the valve has been removed from the
pipeline. Process fluids may spray out when removing the packing hardware or packing rings, or when loosening the
packing box pipe plug.
D Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
Packing Maintenance
Refer to figure 5 for available packing configurations. All maintenance operations in this section may be performed
with the valve in the line. Packing may be PTFE V‐ring or graphite.
An ENVIRO‐SEAL packing system is also available with the 8580 valve. To install the ENVIRO‐SEAL packing system in an
existing valve, follow the instructions in the instruction manual included with the packing system (D101643X012). To
remove packing parts in a valve with the ENVIRO‐SEAL packing system, follow the procedures for valves with the
ENVIRO‐SEAL packing system in this section. Install the replacement packing following the instructions in the packing
system instruction manual (D101643X012).
