Installation
Key numbers in this procedure are shown in figure 9 unless otherwise indicated.

WARNING
Always wear protective gloves, clothing and eyewear when performing any installation operations to avoid personal injury.
To avoid personal injury or property damage resulting from the bursting of pressure retaining parts, be certain the service
conditions do not exceed either the valve body rating or the flange joint rating, or other limits given in table 1 or on the
nameplate. Use pressure‐relieving or pressure‐limiting devices to prevent the service conditions from exceeding these
limits.
If installing into an existing application, also refer to the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section on page 8
in this manual.

CAUTION
The valve configuration and construction materials were selected to meet particular pressure, temperature, pressure drop,
and controlled fluid conditions specified in the customer's order. Because some valve body/trim material combinations are
limited in their pressure drop and temperature range capabilities, do not apply any other conditions to the valve without
first contacting your Emerson Process Management sales office.

The maximum allowable inlet pressures for steel and stainless steel valve bodies are consistent with the
pressure‐temperature ratings shown in table 1, except where further limited by the trim and packing material
temperature capabilities given in table 3. Valves are also available in CW2M and M35‐2 valve body materials. The
CW2M valve body material is not listed in EN 12516-1 or in ASME B16.34. The M35-2 valve body material is listed in
ASME B16.34, but is not listed in EN 12516-1. Valve bodies constructed of these materials mate with EN and ASME
flanges, but must not be installed in systems requiring conformance to EN or ASME standards if not included in EN or
ASME pressure/temperature ratings. Maximum allowable inlet pressures for A81 valve bodies made of CW2M or
M35‐2 construction materials are shown in table 4.
1. Install a three‐valve bypass around the control valve assembly if continuous operation is necessary during
inspection and maintenance of the valve body.
2. Inspect the valve body to be certain it is free of foreign material.
3. The valve is normally shipped as part of a control valve assembly, with an actuator mounted on the valve body.
If the valve body and actuator have been purchased separately or if the actuator has been removed for maintenance,
mount the actuator, and adjust actuator travel before inserting the valve body into the line. This is necessary due to
the measurements that must be made during the actuator adjustment process. Refer to the Actuator Mounting
section on page 18 of this manual and to the separate actuator instruction manual for mounting and adjusting
instructions before proceeding.
4. Inspect adjacent pipelines to be certain they are free of any foreign material, such as pipe scale or welding slag, that
could damage the valve body seating surfaces.

CAUTION
Damage to the disk (key 3) will occur if any pipe flanges or piping connected to the valve body interfere with the disk
rotation path. However, the disk can be rotated without interference when the valve body is installed between adjacent
pipe flanges or piping that has an inside diameter equal to or greater than either schedule 80 pipe or compatible EN pipe

D103302X012

sizes. If piping with a smaller inner diameter than specified above is connected to the valve, measure carefully to be certain
the disk rotates without interference before putting the valve into operation.

5. Flow is in the standard direction when the seal retainer (key 2) is facing upstream. Standard flow direction is also
indicated by the flow direction arrow cast into the valve body. Flow in the reverse direction is permissible within
allowable pressure drop limits.

CAUTION
A81 disk rotation is counterclockwise to open (when viewed from the actuator side of the valve body, see figure 7) through
90 degrees of disk rotation. Rotating the disk (key 3) past either the open or closed position could damage the seal and disk
sealing surfaces and could cause the disk to jam in the seal retainer.

6. With the disk in the closed position, install line flange gaskets, and insert the valve between the pipeline flanges.
Use either flat sheet gaskets or spiral‐wound gaskets with compression‐controlling centering rings. Spiral‐wound
gaskets without compression‐controlling centering rings are not recommended for this purpose.
7. Depending on valve size and pressure rating, the wafer style valve is centered in the pipeline using either retainer
clips or the flange bolt holes. (For valves that have four flange bolt holes in the valve body (key 1), each hole
engages one corresponding line flange stud.) Insert the valve between the flanges and use either the retainer clips
or install two or more line flange studs into the line flanges to help hold the valve in position while centering the
valve. Carefully center the valve on the flanges to ensure disk clearance.
D Select and install two pipeline gaskets.

Note
Lubricate line flange studs before inserting them into flanges. If necessary, provide additional support for the control valve
assembly because of its combined weight.

WARNING
For single flange valve bodies with threaded line bolt holes, personal injury and property damage could result from sudden
release of process pressure if line bolts are not properly installed. To ensure proper line bolt thread engagement, line studs
must be centered in the threaded section of the valve body so that each stud has equal thread engagement in the body. See
figure 2.

8. After centering the valve body, first lubricate and then install the remaining line flange bolting to secure the valve in
the pipeline. Tighten the nuts to the line flange studs in a crisscross pattern to ensure proper alignment of valve,
gaskets, and flanges.

A81 Valve
May 2011

WARNING
An A81 valve body is not necessarily grounded when installed in a pipeline. If the valve is used in a flammable or hazardous
atmosphere or for oxygen service, an explosion could result due to a discharge of static electricity from the valve
components. To avoid personal injury or property damage, always make sure the valve body is grounded to the pipeline
before putting the control valve assembly into operation in a flammable or hazardous atmosphere.

Note
Standard packings for the A81 valve are composed of all conductive packing rings (graphite ribbon packing) or partially conductive
packing rings (such as a carbon‐filled PTFE female adaptor with PTFE V‐ring packing) to electrically bond the shaft to the valve
body for hazardous area service. For oxygen service applications, provide alternate shaft‐to‐valve body bonding according to the
following step.

9. For oxygen service applications, attach the bonding strap assembly (key 131, figure 3) to the shaft with the clamp
(key 130, figure 3), and connect the other end of the bonding strap assembly to the valve body with the cap screw
(key 35). Secure each cap screw with a hex nut (key 36).

WARNING
Personal injury could result from packing leakage. Valve packing was tightened prior to shipment; however, the packing
might require some readjustment to meet specific service conditions.

NOTES:
WITH CONDUCTIVE PACKING, THE FEMALE ADAPTOR IN PTFE V‐RING PACKING IS CARBON‐FILLED PTFE.
APPLY LUBRICANT.
THESE TWO SURFACES SHOULD REMAIN PARALLEL AS YOU ALTERNATELY AND EVENLY TIGHTEN THE PACKING NUTS (KEY 28).

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 4 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 A81 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).

Stopping Leakage
For valves with PTFE or graphite packing:

CAUTION
Tighten the packing flange only enough to prevent shaft leakage. Excessive tightening will only accelerate wear of the
packing and could produce higher torques on the valve.

Leakage around the packing followers can be stopped by tightening the packing flange nuts (key 28, figure 9).
If the packing is relatively new and tight on the shaft, and if tightening the packing flange nuts does not stop leakage,
the shaft may be worn or nicked so that a seal cannot be made. If the leakage comes from the outside diameter of the
packing, the leakage may be caused by nicks or scratches around the packing box wall. Inspect the shaft and packing
box wall for nicks and scratches when performing the packing replacement procedures.

For valves with the ENVIRO‐SEAL packing system:
Optimum performance of the ENVIRO‐SEAL packing system is obtained when the Belleville springs are tightened to
their “target load.” The target load is the point where the springs are compressed to 85% of their maximum deflection,
or nearly flat. Maximum deflection is when the springs are 100% compressed, or completely flat.
Under normal conditions, the packing nuts should not require re‐tightening. However, when servicing, if the springs
do not remain at the target load of 85% compression, retighten the packing box nuts according to the following
procedure:
1. Tighten the packing flange nuts alternately and evenly, keeping the packing flange parallel with the valve flange
(see figure 4), until the Belleville springs are compressed 100% (or completely flat).
D For PTFE packing, loosen each packing flange nut one half turn (180_ of rotation).
D For Graphite packing, loosen each packing flange nut one quarter turn (90_ of rotation).
The target load of 85% compression has now been reached. If leakage continues, replace the packing components as
described in the following procedures.

Replacing the Packing
To replace the packing, the actuator must be removed. Also, the valve should be removed from the pipeline to allow
proper readjustment of the disk position.

WARNING
The edges of a rotating disk have a shearing effect that may result in personal injury. To help prevent such injury, stay clear
of the disk edges when rotating the disk (key 3).

CAUTION
Damage to the disk (key 3) may occur if the disk is not closed when the valve is being removed from the pipeline. If
necessary, apply operating pressure to the actuator temporarily to retain the disk in the closed position while removing the
valve from the pipeline.

For valves with PTFE or graphite packing:
Key numbers in this procedure are shown in figure 9 unless otherwise indicated.
1. Isolate the control valve from the line pressure, release pressure from both sides of the valve body, and drain the
process media from both sides of the valve. If using a power actuator, also shutoff all pressure lines to the power
actuator, release all pressure from the actuator. Use lock‐out procedures to be sure the above measures stay in
effect while you work on the equipment.

CAUTION
When removing the actuator in the following step, use a wheel puller to separate the actuator parts from the valve shaft.
Do not drive the actuator parts off the valve shaft because this could damage valve trim components.

2. Remove the actuator per instructions in separate actuator instruction manuals, then remove the cap screws and
nuts (keys 35 and 36). Remove the clamp (key 130, figure 3) if the strap (key 131, figure 3) is used.
3. Remove the packing flange nuts and the packing flange (key 26) if used and pull out the packing follower (key 25).
4. Remove the anti‐blowout ring (key 40) from the drive shaft (key 10).
5. Remove the old packing rings (key 24) and, if used, the packing washers (key 31). Carefully avoid scratching the
shaft or packing box wall to avoid damage that could cause leakage around the shaft. Clean all accessible metal
parts and surfaces to remove particles that would prevent the packing from sealing.

WARNING
Do not lubricate parts when used in oxygen service, or where the lubrication is incompatible with the process media. Any
use of lubricant can lead to the sudden explosion of media due to the oil/oxygen mixture, causing personal injury or
property damage.

6. Use the appropriate procedures below for installing packing.
D Install the packing as shown in figure 4.
D With graphite ribbon packing, stack the packing rings and packing washers together, and slide the stack into the
packing box as far as it will go while carefully avoiding trapping air between the rings.
D Install the anti‐blowout ring (key 40) in the groove on the drive shaft (key 10).
D Install the packing follower and, if used, the packing flange.
D Install the packing flange nuts, and tighten them only far enough to stop leakage under normal operating
conditions.
D For oxygen service applications, attach the bonding strap assembly (key 131, figure 3) to the shaft with the clamp
(key 130, figure 3), and connect the other end of the bonding strap assembly to the valve body with a cap screw
(key 35). Secure each cap screw with a hex nut (key 36).
7. Mount the actuator and adjust the closed position of the valve, per the Actuator Mounting section on page 18 of
this manual, before returning the valve to service.
8. When placing the control valve into operation, check around the packing follower for leakage; retighten the
packing flange nuts as required according to accepted bolting procedures.
For valves with ENVIRO‐SEAL packing systems:
1. Isolate the control valve from the line pressure, release pressure from both sides of the valve body, and drain the
process media from both sides of the valve. If using a power actuator, also shutoff all pressure lines to the power
actuator, release all pressure from the actuator. Use lock‐out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in
effect while you work on the equipment.

CAUTION
When removing the actuator, use a wheel puller to separate the actuator parts from the valve shaft. Do not drive the
actuator parts off the valve shaft because this could damage valve trim components.

2. Remove the actuator per instructions in separate actuator instruction manuals, then remove the cap screws and
nuts (keys 35 and 36). Remove the clamp (key 130, figure 3) if the strap (key 131, figure 3) is used.

1. If new bearings (key 6) are required, install and orient them in the valve body, as shown in figure 5. Ensure the
bearings are fully seated, contacting the inside diameter of the valve body.
2. Insert the disk into the valve body as shown in figure 6, ensuring the “T” stamped on the disk hub is oriented toward
the actuator end of the valve body.
3. Install the drive shaft (key 10) through the valve body into the disk. The disk/shaft connection utilizes taper and
expansion pins. The hole for the drive shaft connection is slightly off‐center to prevent the drive shaft from being
installed in the wrong orientation. Orient the position indication mark on the end of the shaft with the face of the
disk as shown in figure 7. The hole for the follower shaft connection is on‐center. Insert the expansion pins into the
disk until they are seated, as shown in figure 6. Once in place, insert the taper pins. The taper pins must be driven
into the disk/shaft/expansion pin assemblies until “solid contact” is felt. “Solid contact” can be identified by the
sound of the hammer blow and the bounce felt in the hammer.
4. Reinstall the follower spring/spring seat assembly (keys 9, 12, and 9, figure 8) inside the follower shaft.
5. Install the spacer (key 15) if used, and the gasket, blind flange, and hex nuts (keys 16, 17, and 19). Ensure the blind
flange is oriented so the serrations face the gasket and valve body. Tighten the hex nuts (key 19) per table 7.
6. The valve must be closed during seal ring installation to permit accurate centering of the seal. To install the new
seal ring assembly or flow ring:

Actuator Mounting
With the valve body out of the line, mount the actuator on the valve body in accordance with the instructions in the
actuator instruction manual. Mount the actuator yoke to the valve body, and tighten the actuator‐mounting cap
screws and nuts (keys 35 and 36) to the appropriate torque from table 8.
Key numbers in this procedure are shown in figure 9 unless otherwise indicated.

CAUTION
A81 valve disk rotation is counterclockwise to open (when viewed from the actuator side of the valve body, see figure 7).
Rotating the disk (key 3) past the fully closed position will damage the seal ring (key 4). To prevent this damage, make
certain the actuator travel stop prevents the disk from rotating past the fully closed position.

1. Adjust the actuator to bring the disk to the fully closed position at the end of the actuator stroke. To determine the
fully closed disk position, measure the distances between the disk face and the seal retainer face at the top and
bottom of the valve (X1 and X2) as shown in figure 7. Adjust the travel stops to rotate the disk slightly until the two
measurements are within 0.8 mm (0.032 inch) of each other. Refer to the appropriate actuator instruction manual
for assistance.
