DISTRIBUTED VALVES

STORAGE
After AOP Series D ball valves are assembled and tested, the valves are left in the fully open
position, seats and bores are greased and end protectors are installed. These measures will
provide protection for approximately six months. The following care should be taken when
storing valves:
1. Make sure the valve end connection covers remain in place during storage.
2. If the valve does not have an operator and the valve will be stored outside, the
exposed stem or the stem adapter should be covered to avoid accumulation of
water and debris.
If long-term storage is required, the valve should be conditioned by following procedure
X-150771-01 and ensure adequate end connection covers are in place. Request a copy of
X-150771-01 from Cameron’s Valves & Measurement business segment.

INSTALLATION
AOP Series D ball valves can be installed in most positions with flow from either direction.
However, for best service life, there is a preferred horizontal position to increase sealing and
reduce the accumulation of sediment. In horizontal piping, it is preferred to have the stem
lying horizontal (i.e., stem toward the viewer) with pressure from the right. During operation,
flow will act as a siphon and will reduce retention of sediment. When handling or installing a
valve, keep the valve in the fully open position whenever possible to prevent foreign object
damage to the ball.
1. The valve should be lifted in such a way that the body supports the load.

Caution: The journal and the end connection necks are suitable places to attach lifting slings.
! Never use handwheels or other protruding parts of the valve, gearbox or actuator
not designated for this purpose.
CAUTION

2. If the valve is equipped with lifting lugs, these should be used for handling.
3. The end protector covers should be kept in place on the end connections during all
handling. Remove only during final installation of the valve.

Caution: During handling, protect the end connection faces and fittings against damage from
! the lifting devices. Failure to cover faces and fittings could cause damage to the
valve.
CAUTION

Flanged-end valves may be bolted into the line using two open or boxed end wrenches.
• Threads of flanged bolts and nuts should be lubricated to obtain proper loading of
bolts.
• Finger-tighten all nuts first.
• When tightening bolts, use the crisscross method and torque each bolt to ASME or
gasket manufacturer’s specification.

TC9210 6 IOM-AOP-SERIES D
DISTRIBUTED VALVES

HYDROSTATIC TESTING
When AOP Series D ball valves are installed in a piping system that requires hydrostatic testing
of the adjoining pipe, follow these procedures to reduce any damage that could occur to the
sealing surface and seat seals inside the valve.

Caution: Ensure that all test fluid contains corrosion inhibitors and that these are
! compatible with the valve seat and seal material.
CAUTION

1. The valve should be in the fully open position when the injection of test fluid
begins. This will allow any pipeline debris to be flushed through the valve bore and
out of the piping.
2. Once the piping system has been purged of debris and the system has been filled
completely with the test fluid, the ball should be placed in the partially open
position (approximately 10 degrees from the fully open position). This allows test
fluid into the body cavity of the valve.
3. The valve now is ready to be hydrostatic pressure tested.
4. Upon completion of hydrostatic testing, the valve should be returned to the fully
open position before removing the test fluid from the piping system. The test fluid
in the body cavity can be drained through the body drain port located on the lower
portion of the valve body (see Draining Valve and Releasing Body Pressure, page
13).
5. Close the valve body bleed fitting and return the valve to required operating
position, either fully open or fully closed.

MOUNTING A GEAR/ACTUATOR
To mount a gear on a valve, use the following as guidelines.

Note: The following information is for typical gear designs. Specific instructions for each
design should be obtained from gear manufacturer.

1. Make sure the valve is in the fully open or closed position and position the actuator
to match.
2. Depending on the valve stem and the gear mounting kit, it is possible that the
actuator may be installed in multiple positions. If this is the case, determine where
the customer desires the handwheel and install it accordingly. A thin layer of anti-
seize or grease on the valve stem is recommended.
3. Once the operator is mounted, secure it with the appropriate bolts. If the bolt holes
do not line up, slightly operate to the open or closed position to match the mount-
ing flange.
4. It is now necessary to set the operator stops as outlined in the following section.

SETTING STOPS
AOP Series D ball valves do not have stops when mounting a gear or actuator. The stop plate
(item 9) and stop (item 11), are removed before mounting an operator. The 4” ball valve also
has no manual stop plate when specified for actuation. An adapter plate is provided.
1. Make sure that operating the valve to the fully open and fully closed positions will
not disrupt current operation of the line.
2. Loosen the open and closed stop screw locknuts on the operator.
3. Partially back out the stop screw on the open side of the operator.
4. Operate the valve to the fully open
position. This is indicated when the flats
on the stem are in line with the bore. If
the ball stops short of the fully open
position, additionally back out the open
stop screw on the operator and move the
ball to the fully open position.
5. Turn the open stop screw clockwise until
it stops, then tighten the locknut.
6. To set the closed stop, partially back out
the stop screw on the closed side of the
operator.

Figure 4 – Typical Gear Box with Stops


7. Operate the valve to the fully closed position. This is indicated when the flats on
the stem are perpendicular to the bore. If the ball stops short of the fully closed
position, additionally back out the closed stop screw and move the valve to the
fully closed position.
TC9210 8 IOM-AOP-SERIES D
DISTRIBUTED VALVES

8. Turn the closed stop screw clockwise until it stops, then tighten the locknut.
9. After mounting the operator, operate the valve three times to check for proper
movement.
10. Perform a seat seal test on each side of the valve.

OPERATION
AOP Series D ball valves operate from fully open to fully closed by a 90-degree turn of
the handle. The handle aligned with the pipe always means the valve is open. The handle
perpendicular to the pipe means the valve is closed. Additionally, for stems with keys, the bore
of the ball is in line with the key, and for stems with two flats and double-D configuration, the
bore of the ball is in line with the flats.
Worm gear operators, available on all size valves, have an arrow on the top of the operator
unit that indicates the “OPEN – CLOSE” position of the ball. The open and closed position of the
valve is set or controlled by stops on the worm gear unit. Facing the handwheel, rotating the
handwheel clockwise closes the valve while counter-clockwise opens the valve. The handwheel
should be turned until it contacts an open stop or closed stop, depending on the desired valve
position.

Note: Handwheel movement in these directions is an accepted industry practice for opening and
closing any valve with a worm gear operator.

AOP Series D ball valves can be power actuated. Pneumatic and hydraulic actuators, whether
of the fail-open, fail-close, or fail-last position type, have “OPEN – CLOSED” indicators on the
top of each unit On a pneumatic actuator, make sure filters and lubricators (if recommended
by the actuator manufacturer) are installed prior to the valve and actuator installation. Should
any maintenance be necessary, obtain the part number from the unit’s nameplate and contact
Cameron’s Valves & Measurement business segment or the nearest representative.
The body cavity of an AOP Series D ball valve can be blown down or drained through the body
vent port when the valve is closed with pressure on each side of the ball. Take the following
steps when double block and bleeding the valve.

Warning: Make sure proper safety garments are worn and follow all customer safety
procedures. Failure to do so could injure you or others.

1. Note the location of the body vent fitting. Check the direction of the hole on the
side of the vent fitting. Any debris in the valve or fitting will be exhausted at a high
velocity.

Warning: To avoid possibly being struck by liquid or foreign sold matter, position yourself so
the hole of the bleed fitting is pointing safely away from you and back up the vent
body so only the hex head on the top of the fitting is unscrewed.

2. With the valve fully closed, open the body vent fitting all the way. A backup wrench
on the body of the fitting should be used to prevent accidental loosening and removal
of the body vent fitting.
For additional information on venting, see Draining Valve and Releasing Body Pressure, page 13.
Warning: Never try to block and bleed the valve in the partially open position.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Under normal working conditions, the AOP Series D
ball valve is designed for lengthy, reliable service.
The following recommended practices and
procedures will ensure optimum
performance of your valve.

Caution: Verify compatibility of any sealant, lubricant


! or anti-freeze with the trim of the valve and
product in the line.

DRAINING VALVE AND RELEASING BODY PRESSURE


After lengthy service, there is a possibility of water, line scale, sediment or other foreign mat-
ter collecting in the lower body cavity. It is advisable to periodically drain the valve to discour-
age development of conditions that can possibly lead to valve damage or impair the operation
of your valve. If draining is not regularly scheduled, it is strongly recommended to drain the
valve at these times:
• After hydrostatic testing
• After cleaning the line
• When valve cannot be fully opened or closed, foreign matter in the bottom of the
valve can not only prevent placing valve in a fully open or closed position, it also
can cause permanent damage to the internal sealing surfaces.
If the valve is equipped with a vent or bleed fitting in the lower drain, to release body
pressure or drain the valve, first place the ball in the closed position.

Warning: To avoid possibly being struck by liquid or foreign solid matter, position yourself so
relief port of vent or bleed (drain) fitting is pointing safely away from you and back
up the vent or bleed (drain) fitting so only the stinger is unscrewed.
TC9210 10 IOM-AOP-SERIES D
DISTRIBUTED VALVES

Carefully unscrew the stinger of the vent or bleed (drain) fitting to allow free flow of air,
liquid or foreign solid matter to escape from the body cavity. After body pressure is released
or valve is drained, screw the stinger of the vent or bleed (drain) fitting back in to close the
vent.
If the valve is equipped with a grease fitting in the lower drain, a safety pressure releasing
tool is required to simplify the procedure of releasing body pressure or draining the valve. To
release body pressure or to drain the valve, first place the ball in the closed position.

Warning: To avoid possibly being struck by liquid or foreign solid matter, position yourself so
the outlet port of grease fitting is pointing safely away from you and back up the
grease fitting so only the safety cap is unscrewed.

Carefully remove the safety cap of the lower drain grease fitting. Back out the stinger of
the pressure releasing tool until it stops. Install the safety pressure-releasing tool onto the
uncapped grease fitting. Carefully screw the stinger of the releasing tool in (until the ball
check in the grease fitting is pushed off its seat). This will allow the valve to drain or release
body pressure. After completion, back out the stinger of the pressure-releasing tool to allow
the ball check in the grease fitting to reseat and permit easy removal of the pressure-releasing
tool. Replace the safety cap on the lower drain grease fitting.

LOW-TEMPERATURE PRECAUTIONS
Prior to exposure to freezing temperatures, it is highly recommended that the valve be
drained. Water that can be trapped in the body cavity could freeze and impair the operation
of the valve or damage the valve. If the valve has a grease fitting in the lower drain, a
sufficient amount of antifreeze injected into the body cavity via the lower drain grease fitting
will prevent accumulated water from freezing.
It also is advisable to inject a sufficient amount of valve lubricant into the grease fittings of
the valve and operator (if present) prior to extended cold temperature exposure.
Trapped water should be drained from stem extensions. Some stem extensions in the field
are equipped with plastic plugs that can be removed to drain trapped water from the piped
extension.

ROUTINE SEAT CLEANING


The seat pocket area is the primary area where any valve can be affected by contaminants
in the lines. To ensure the seat’s free movement, it is recommended that the valve seat
pockets be cleaned routinely with an approved product. The frequency of routine cleaning
depends on the severity of service, but once a year is a good guideline. The following cleaning
procedure can be used on valves equipped with seat injection fittings:
1. Locate the seat injection fittings on the valve.
2. Make sure the grease gun/pump is in working order and loaded with the appropri-
ate product.

Warning: Back up the seat grease fitting so only the safety cap will be removed from the
fitting. Carefully remove the safety cap from the seat grease fitting. NEVER remove
the grease fitting when the valve is under pressure.

TC9210 11 IOM-AOP-SERIES D
DISTRIBUTED VALVES

3. Remove the safety vent cap from each grease fitting. Attach the grease gun
connection onto the grease fitting and inject the full seat capacity of valve flush into
each seat.
4. Make sure it is safe to operate the valve. Fully operate the valve three times.
5. Remove the grease gun and replace the safety vent caps on the grease fittings.
If additional cleaning is desired, inject the full seat capacity of valve flush into each seat and
allow to soak for one to six hours. Inject the full capacity of valve flush again and operate the
valve (if safe to do so) three times. This additional cleaning may help break up buildup of con-
taminants.

MAINTAINING SEALS
The AOP Series D ball valve is non-lubricated. Unlike a typical plug valve, the AOP D-Series ball
valve does not depend upon the injection of sealant to activate seals. However, occasionally
injecting valve lubricant into seat and stem grease fittings will ensure optimum performance of
the seat and stem seals and can help maintain long reliable service.

TEMPORARY SEAL RESTORATION


If your valve seats or stem seal fail, normally it is possible to restore the seal or reduce any seat
or stem leakage for an extended period of time – until it is convenient to remove the valve
from service and replace the seals – with the injection of a sufficient amount of valve sealant
into the grease fitting (see chart for list of sealants). The valve must be equipped with the seat
and/or stem injection feature.
Temporary seat seal restoration with the valve under line pressure for valves equipped with seat
injection:
1. Fill the high-pressure grease gun with valve sealant.
2. Place the valve in a fully closed position.

Warning: Back up the seat grease fitting so only the safety cap will be removed from the fit-
ting. Carefully remove the safety cap from the seat grease fitting. NEVER remove the
grease fitting when the valve is under pressure.

3. Remove the safety vent cap from the grease fitting. Attach the grease gun
connection onto the grease fitting and inject sealant.
4. Repeat this process for the second seat grease fitting. If injection of the sealant is
difficult, flush the valve seats and attempt to inject sealant again. Replace safety caps
on the seat grease fittings.

TC9210 12 IOM-AOP-SERIES D
DISTRIBUTED VALVES

Temporary seat seal restoration with the valve out of line:

Note: Before removing the valve from the line, all pressure must be relieved from the valve
and line.

1. Fill the high-pressure grease gun with valve sealant.


2. Back up the seat grease fitting so only the cap will be removed from the fitting.
3. Carefully remove the safety cap from the seat grease fitting.
4. With the valve out of line, you should be able to view the bore interior.
5. Attach the high-pressure grease gun connection onto the grease fitting and inject
sealant until sealant enters the valve bore.
6. Repeat this process for the second seat grease fitting. Replace the safety caps on
the seat grease fittings.
7. Excess sealant should be removed from the valve bore before the valve is put back
in service.
Temporary stem seal restoration for valves equipped with stem injection fittings:
1. Fill the high-pressure grease gun with valve sealant.

Warning: Back up the stem grease fitting so only the safety cap will be removed from the
fitting.

2. Carefully remove the safety cap from the stem grease fitting.
3. Attach the grease gun connection onto the grease fitting and inject sealant into
the stem grease fitting.
4. Replace the safety cap on the stem grease fitting.
