Proper Use of Equipment
National Oilwell Varco equipment is designed for specific functions and applications, and should be used only
for its intended purpose.
Safety Precautions
Operation of the control systems may present certain hazards that require the attention and caution of
operators and technicians. Normally, many hazards are avoided by observing and exercising standard safety
precautions.
Electrical Precautions
Certain safety precautions must be exercised regarding the electric circuits of the control system. The
following precautions will prevent damage to equipment and injury to personnel that might result from electric
power:
Personnel engaged in electrical work should receive proper instruction in accident prevention and
first aid procedures.
An electric source power must be supplied at correct voltage, current, and phase to enable safe
and correct operation of equipment.
Exercise caution when working around exposed electrical conductors, terminals, and remotely
activated equipment.
Ensure flash proof integrity of explosion-proof electrical junction boxes, connections, and circuit
breakers. This will prevent fires or explosion that might result from a spark during electrical
switching.
Do not override or tamper with electrical or mechanical interlocks and safety devices.
Before attempting any corrective action on the electrical circuit, verify that all electric power sources
have been removed from the circuit. Ensure that all electrical switches are set to Off and the
appropriate breakers are set to Open.
Do not service or adjust the electrical circuits alone. Always verify that a qualified person is present
who can render aid in case of accident and who is familiar with emergency shutdown procedures.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | Safety Precautions 1-4

Appropriate warning tags labeled Requiring Open Circuit Condition shall be placed on all
necessary switches and circuit breakers to prevent accidental application of power to units of the
system during maintenance procedures.
Wear suitable protective clothing while working within 4 feet of exposed electrical equipment. Do
not wear rings, wrist watches, or clothing with exposed metal buttons, zippers, or fasteners.
Metal handles of hand-held tools should be insulated by an approved taping, coating, or sleeve
method.
Whenever it is necessary to work on electrical circuits or equipment in wet or damp locations, dry,
wooden (or similar nonconducting material) platforms should be provided to prevent the possibility
of contact between the wet floor and the workmans shoes.
Hydraulic Precautions
Hydraulic source power produced by the accumulator control/pump unit is at sufficiently high pressures and
volumes to present a hazard if required safety practices are not followed. Exercise the following precautions
to aid in preventing damage to equipment and injury to personnel that might result from hydraulic-power
related accidents:
Mop up spilled hydraulic fluid immediately. Immediately investigate and correct the cause of any
leakage of hydraulic fluid.
If clothing becomes drenched with hydraulic fluid, change immediately to dry clothing. The fluid is
very irritating to eyes and skin. Prolonged contact with hydraulic fluid may cause dermatitis, which
may progress to allergic sensitization.
Ensure that only correct hydraulic fluid is supplied and used for safe and correct operation of the
control systems unit.
Hydraulic fluid must be filtered to prevent any dirt or debris from entering the hydraulic circuit.
Ensure that the pressure relief valves are in working condition and that the valves are set to relieve
at their designated pressure levels.
Should there be a rupture or break in the hydraulic circuit (when pressurized), do not place hands,
face, or any part of the body over the escaping jet stream of fluid. Severe bodily injury will result.
Never torque leaking connections or fittings while lines are pressurized. Application of torque to
fittings or connections while lines are pressurized may cause lines to rupture and result in injury to
personnel.
Before attempting any corrective action on the hydraulic circuit, verify that the electric power source
is turned off, the pneumatic power source is turned off, and all hydraulic pressure is completely
vented. Verify that all hydraulic gauges read 0 psi (0 bar).
When precharging accumulators, use only dry nitrogen gas. The use of another gas may cause unit
failure or explosion.
Pneumatic Precautions
Pneumatic source power supplied to the control unit is of sufficiently high pressure and volume to present a
hazard if required safety practices are not followed. Exercise the following precautions to aid in preventing
damage to equipment and injury to personnel that might result from pneumatic power:
Ensure that the pneumatic source power is supplied at adequate pressure and volume to enable
safe and proper operation of equipment. Maximum system air pressure is 125 psi (9 bar).
Ensure that the air is filtered to prevent any dirt or debris from entering the pneumatic circuit.
Ensure that air is dried and lubricated before it pilots or operates any motor (hydraulic pump);
moisture can damage components and result in unit failure.
Should there be a rupture or break in the pneumatic circuit (when pressurized), do not place hands,
face, or any part of the body over the escaping air. Severe bodily injury may result.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | Safety Precautions 1-5

Before attempting any corrective action on the pneumatic circuit, verify that the pneumatic power
source is cut off and that all pneumatic pressure is completely vented. Verify that all pneumatic
pressure gauges read 0 psi (0 bar).
Cable and Hose Precautions
Observing the precautions listed below will prevent damage to equipment and injury to personnel that might
result from damage to cables and/or hoses.
Protect electrical cables, pneumatic hoses, and hydraulic hoses from cutting, scraping, pinching,
abrasion or other physical damage.
Route cables and hoses outside of the crews traffic patterns and away from mechanical equipment.
Observe the prescribed minimum bend radius for cables and hoses. Twisting or bending cables or
hoses beyond the minimum bend radius can rupture the insulation and damage the conductors.
BOP Control Unit Safety
Personnel responsible for the operation of blowout preventers (BOPs) should observe the following
precautions:
Never leave the shutoff valves to the accumulators in the closed position.
Never use diesel fuel oil or kerosene in the system as a control fluid. Always use good clean
lightweight hydraulic oil or soluble oil concentrate properly mixed with potable water or water and
glycol.
Never allow oxygen to be stored in the vicinity of an accumulator unit. Always precharge your
accumulator bottles with nitrogen gas, which is inert. Accept no substitutes.
Never put any locking mechanism on the handles of the four-way hydraulic control valves. A cover
made of expanded metal, clear plastic, or other will serve the same purpose without hampering the
operation of the valve. Be sure that the cover is large enough to allow the valve handle to operate
freely for remote control operation.
Keep a charging and gauging assembly near the unit at all times.
Maintain and test the system periodically and operate it at its designed working pressure.
Leave the four-way control valves in normal operating condition. Never leave in neutral or blocked
position during the drilling operations.
Do not leave electric cable connector plugs unprotected. Install protective covers when not in use.
Work Area Precautions
Work should be performed in an area free of any dangerous obstructions, chemicals or hazards of any kind in
order to prevent or reduce the severity of an injury. The precautions listed below should be observed in order
to maintain a safe working environment.
Remove any dangerous obstruction located overhead, to the side, or on the surrounding floor of the
work area as safely and quickly as possible utilizing the appropriate personnel.
Remove any flammable materials located or spilled within or near the work area. Flammable
materials include, but are not limited to, the following:
oily rags, paper products, or any combustible solid
kerosene, gasoline, or any combustible liquid
oxygen tanks, acetylene tanks, or any combustible gas
Correct or remove any condition, situation, or circumstance that may pose serious hazard(s) to the
work area.


National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | Safety Precautions 1-6

Many of National Oilwell Varcos system component parts are specially manufactured to system design
specifications, although apparently similar to commercially available hardware. To avoid possible hazardous
failures, use only National Oilwell Varco replacement parts, components, or assemblies.

National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | Introduction 2-1

Chapter 2 Introduction
The ShafferType B gate valve is specifically designed for choke and kill manifold service and
for use as an isolation valve for outlets on BOP stacks. The Type B valve is available in working
pressures of 5,000 psi, 10,000 psi, and 15,000 psi (see Figure 2-1 below). The 5,000 psi working
pressure Type B valve is available in 21/16", 31/8", and 41/16" bore sizes. The 10,000 psi, and
15,000 psi valves are available in 21/16", 31/16", and 41/16" bore sizes. All Type B gate valves
seal on the downstream seat; therefore, upstream pressure is in the body cavity at all times,
ensuring low handwheel torque requirements.

Figure 2-1 - Type B Gate Valves
Standard features of all Shaffer Type B gate valves include an elastomeric seal between the gate
and seat which assures long, trouble-free life in oil, water, gas, or mud applications. The metal-
reinforced seal has a proven increase in sealing life over earlier seal types, which translates into
reduced valve maintenance and downtime. Elastomeric face seals which do wear out or become
damaged are easily replaceablethe entire seat does not need to be replaced. In addition, these
face seals are capable of sealing at full working pressure on gate or seat surfaces having minor
damage.
The gates and seats of the Type B gate valves are hardened and precision ground.
The body cavities of the Type B valves are filled with grease to resist accumulation of foreign
materials and hydrates in the body. Water, mud, or other line fluid which accumulate in the body
cavity can be displaced by removing the bleeder plug and pumping grease through the bonnet.
The bleeder plug is removed only after all line pressure has been bled to zero and the valve has
been cycled to release any pressure trapped in the body.
The bonnet seal of the Type B gate valve is an API ring gasket design. Zero standoff between the
bonnet and the body prevents corrosion of the bonnet bolt threads. In addition, reduced-hardness
bonnet bolts can be used without derating the working pressure, which makes the valve
especially applicable for H2S service.
All models of the Shaffer Type B gate valves are available with H2S trim which meets API 6A and
NACE specifications. Also available are models which meet API 6A specifications for PSL 1-2-3.
All Shaffer Type B gate valves are easily serviced in the field. No special tools are required for
installation and maintenance.

National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | Introduction 2-2

Special Features
Special Features of 5,000 and 10,000 psi Shaffer Type B Gate Valves.
Stems are non-rising and the stem packing is a highly reliable V-type seal. If a leak
should develop, a weep hole in the bonnet relieves the pressure to the atmosphere.
Plastic secondary seals on the stem can be activated to keep the valve in service until
the stem seals can be replaced.
Back seating allows replacement of the stem packing with full line pressure in the
valve, if necessary. After the valve is back seated, the back seat test screw is opened
to verify that the back seat is holding before the stem packing is removed.
High-capacity needle bearings carry the thrust load in the valve stem. These bearings
are lubricated through a grease fitting in the bearing housing, and any excess grease
vents through a bleed hole located 180 degrees from the fitting. The bleed hole is
covered by an O-ring to prevent foreign materials entering the bearing housing.
Special Features of 15,000 psi Shaffer Type B Gate Valves
Rising stem and balancing tailrod reduce the thrust bearing loads and provide easy
operation of the handwheel.
Lubricated needle bearings significantly reduce friction, resulting in longer wear.
Highly reliable V-type packing on the stem and tailrod is pressure activated.
Plastic secondary seals on both stem and tail rod can be activated if a leak should
occur. These secondary seals keep the valve in service until the stem packing can be
replaced.

Functional Description
The Type B Gate valve is designed for choke and kill manifold service and for use as an isolation
valve for outlets on BOP stacks. The valve is basically a cross (+) design. The horizontal axis of
the cross is the through bore for fluid flow from one flanged end of the valve to the other. The
vertical axis consists of a stem, a one-piece gate and a tailrod (15,000 psi valve only). The gate is
designed with a solid upper section and a lower section with a bore which matches the through
bore of the horizontal axis. The gate is raised until the bore in the gate aligns with the flow path
through the valve, or lowered until the solid section blocks the flow path through the valve.
The handwheel is turned counterclockwise to open the valve. The handwheel engages the stem
adapter which in turn is connected to the valve stem and gate. The stem adapter rotates easily on
two sets of lubricated needle bearings. In the 5,000/10,000 psi valve design, the counterclockwise
rotation of the non-rising stem causes the gate to thread upward onto the stem. As the gate
moves upward, the bore in the gate moves into alignment with the through bore between the two
flanged ends of the valve. When the handwheel is rotated fully counterclockwise and then backed
off one-quarter turn, the valve gate is drawn upward against the bottom of the bonnet and the
valve is in the fully open position. To close the valve, the handwheel is turned clockwise. The
clockwise rotation of the 5,000/10,000 psi stem causes the gate to unthread from the stem. As
the gate unthreads, it moves downward. When the handwheel is rotated fully clockwise and then
backed off one-quarter turn, the solid section of the gate fully blocks the flow through the valve.
The operation of the 15,000 psi valve differs from that of the 5,000/10,000 psi valves in that the
15,000 psi valve has a rising stem. When the handwheel is turned counterclockwise and the stem
adapter is engaged, the threaded stem moves upward into the stem adapter.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | Introduction 2-3

The stem pulls the gate upward and aligns the bore in the gate with the through bore. When the
handwheel is turned clockwise, the threaded stem unthreads from the stem adapter and pushes
the gate downward until the solid section blocks the flow through the valve.
The 15,000 psi valve has a pressure balancing tailrod which permits easy operation of the
handwheel despite high pressure in the valve body. The volume of the stem, gate, and tailrod
assembly in the valve body remains constant no matter what position the gate is in. Similarly the
volume of the fluid in the body is constant at all times. Therefore, as the stem, gate, and tailrod
move up and down there is no displacement of valve fluids and thus there is no fluid pressure
which would act against the stem and prevent easy operation of the handwheel.
For all Type B gate valves, the seal is affected against the downstream seat. The body cavity
therefore sees upstream pressure at all times, which ensures low handwheel torque
requirements.
All Type B valves have grease plates which are installed on both sides of the gate. The grease
plates protect the grease in the valve body from contaminants which are present in the fluid
flowing through the valve. If there were no grease plates, the well fluid present in the bore of the
gate would enter the valve body when the gate moved downward to close the valve. The grease
plates, however, enclose the gate, thereby containing the contaminants in the bore of the gate
and preventing the fluid from entering the valve body.
Safety Precautions
Exposure to the hazards of daily drilling can lead rig crews and service personnel to disregard or
overlook hidden hazards. The following safety precautions should be
observed at all times.
Equipment Repairs or Adjustments
Turn off the system power and bleed off all pressure prior to making any repairs or adjustments
which do not require system power. Use caution when working around exposed electrical
terminals or conductors and remotely activated equipment.
Hydraulic Lines
Hydraulic lines carrying fluids at high pressures can inflict potentially fatal injuries if the pressure
escapes. Protect hydraulic lines from cutting, scraping, pinching, or other physical damage.
Always wear hard hats and safety glasses when working around hydraulic lines. Bleed the
pressure from any hydraulic line prior to disconnecting any fittings. Respect the prescribed ASME
CODE minimum bend radius for hydraulic lines. Bending around too short a radius can rupture
the line.
Welding and Cutting
Do not weld or operate acetylene cutting torches near unprotected electrical cable, flexible hose
or hose bundles. Weld spatter can seriously damage the hose or cable. Ensure no slag or spatter
enters the hydraulic system.

National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Installation and Operation 3-1

Chapter 3 : Installation and Operation
Inspection Prior to Installation
1. Clean the valve thoroughly prior to installation.
2. Remove the grease plugs to confirm that the valve body cavity is full of grease.
To check the 5,000/10,000 psi valve, remove the plug located on the flat, back side of the valve
and look into the body cavity. If additional grease is necessary, inject grease into the valve
through the grease fitting on the side of the bonnet. See Table 2 for valve grease capacities. To
check the 15,000 psi valve design, remove both upper and lower grease plugs. If additional
grease is necessary, inject grease through the upper port until grease begins to flow out the lower
port. Use Shaffer grease or equivalent. Replace the plugs. See Figure 3-1 for the location of
grease plugs.
The grease plugs should be removed only
when the valve is free of all pressure. Bleed
all line pressure to zero. Cycle the valve
several times by rotating the handwheel fully
clockwise and counterclockwise to release
any pressure which may be trapped in the
body.
1. Check to confirm that the bonnet bolts are torqued properly. Refer to the Table 1 for
the recommended torques.
2. Check the ring grooves on the valve flanges for zit nicks, scratches and washout.
Clean out any dirt or grit. Polish all nicks and scratches with an emery cloth. If the
flanges are damaged by washout the valve should be returned to Shaffer for repair.
3. Cycle the valve by turning the handwheel fully clockwise and fully counterclockwise to
confirm the proper assembly and operation of the valve.
Installation
1. Install a ring gasket into each flanged end of the valve. Apply a generous amount of
light oil to lubricate the ring gasket.
2. Make up the flange connections. Tighten the bolts fully according to torque
recommendations in the Table 1.
Operation
Overtightening the Type B valve does not assist in sealing. Overtightening may cause the gate to
jam in the valve body, thereby preventing the gate from seating properly on the downstream seat.
In addition, over tightening and jamming the gate exerts excess force on the valve stem which
shortens the life of the valve. The recommended operating procedures are described below.
Opening the Valve Turn the handwheel counterclockwise until the gate shoulders
against the underside of the bonnet. Then turn the handwheel clockwise one quarter
turn.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Installation and Operation 3-2

Closing the Valve Turn the handwheel clockwise until the gate hits the bottom of the
valve body. Then turn the handwheel counterclockwise one-quarter turn.
Exercise care when operating a valve with the secondary plastic packing energized. (See the
next section for details.) Over tightening the plastic injection screw can cause excessive wear of
stem and seals, as well as increasing the torque required to open and close the valve.
Activating the Secondary Plastic Stem Packing
If a leak in the stem packing should occur when the valve cannot be taken out of service for total
packing replacement, a special plastic secondary packing can be activated to form a temporary
packing seal. The plastic secondary packing is injected at the stem packing of 5,000 and 10,000
psi valves and at the stem packing and tailrod packing of 15,000 psi valves. To activate the
secondary plastic packing, perform the following steps.
Activating the Secondary Packing in 5,000/10,000 psi Valves
Item numbers in parentheses refer to the exploded view, shown in Figure 5-2.
1. Remove the injection plunger from the injection screw. The injection screw is located
on the valve bonnet.
Do not stand in front of the injection plunger
while removing it. Pressure which might be
trapped in the packing assembly could propel
the injection plunger out of the injection
screw. Injury to personnel could result.
2. Insert a second plastic plug into the bore of the injection screw.
The first plastic plug was installed in the
injection screw during manufacture.
3. Install the injection plunger into the injection screw. Screw the injection plunger down
fully to push the two plastic plugs into the valve packing stack (see Figure 3-2).
4. Rotate the handwheel back and forth several times to seat the plastic packing.
5. Check the packing weep hole located beneath the O-ring in the bonnet for leakage (see
Figure 3-2). If there is no leakage through the weep hole, the plastic packing has
seated and sealed properly. If leakage through the weep hole persists, additional
plastic packing plugs may be added. Remove the injection plunger from the injection
screw. Insert additional plastic plugs. Replace the injection plunger and turn to inject
the additional plugs. Rotate the handwheel back and forth additional turns. Check the
weep hole again for leakage.



National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Installation and Operation 3-3

Up to five plastic plugs may be injected into
the packing stack. However, the maximum
recommended number of plastic injection
plugs is three. When five or more plugs are
injected, the packing tends to tighten against
the valve stem, making it difficult to open
and close the valve. If leakage through the
weep hole persists after all plastic plugs have
been injected, the secondary plastic packing
has not seated or sealed properly. If leakage
persists, the valve must be disassembled for
total packing replacement (see page 4-20 and
page 4-22 for stem packing replacement
instructions).
Activating the Secondary Packing in 15,000 psi Valves
The 15,000 psi valves have two injection ports for secondary packing. The first port, located in the
bonnet, services the valve stem packing. The second port, located in the tailrod bonnet, services
the tailrod packing. Both ports are activated using the following procedure. Item numbers in
parentheses refer to the exploded view shown in Figure 5-3.
1. Remove the packing gland and the plastic port plug from the injection port.
Do not stand in front of the injection plunger
while removing it. Pressure which might be
trapped in the packing assembly could propel
the injection plunger out of the injection
screw. Injury to personnel could result.
2. Insert the long end of a hex wrench into the injection port and engage the set screw.
Screw the set screw fully into the injection port. The set screw pushes the check valve
fully into the injection port.
3. Remove the set screw from the injection port. Insert a plastic packing plug into the
injection port. Install the set screw into the injection port behind the plastic packing
plug. Screw the set screw fully into the injection port to push the plastic packing through
the check valve and into the primary packing stack (see Figure 3-3).
4. Rotate the handwheel back and forth several times to seat the plastic packing.
5. Check to see if the leakage persists from the bonnet or the tailrod bonnet. If leakage
persists, additional plastic packing plugs may be added. Remove the set screw from
the injection port. Insert additional plastic plugs. Replace the set screw and install fully
to push the plastic through the check valve. Rotate the handwheel back and forth
additional turns to seat the packing. Check again for leakage.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Installation and Operation 3-4

Up to five plastic plugs may be injected into
the packing stack. However, the maximum
recommended number of plastic injection
plugs is three. When five or more plugs are
injected, the packing tends to tighten against
the valve stem, making it difficult to open
and close the valve. If leakage through the
weep hole persists after all plastic plugs have
been injected, the secondary plastic packing
has not seated or sealed properly. If leakage
persists, the valve must be disassembled for
total packing replacement (see page 4-20 and
page 4-22 for stem packing replacement
instructions).
6. When the secondary plastic packing has been successfully seated, install the plastic
port plug and the packing gland into the injection port behind the set screw. Tighten the
packing gland fully.

Preventive Maintenance
Perform the following preventive maintenance procedures monthly unless otherwise specified.
Item numbers in parentheses refer to the exploded views shown in Figure 5-2 and Figure 5-3.
Greasing the Body
It is very important that the Type B Valve body be kept fully greased at all times. A significant
number of repair problems are directly related to inadequate greasing of the valve body. Table 2
titled "Grease Capacities of Type B Gate Valves" on indicates the amount of grease that valves
of each bore size and working pressure can accept when the body cavity is empty. Check that the
body is full of grease in the following manner.
1. Bleed all line pressure. Cycle the valve several times by turning the handwheel fully
clockwise and counterclockwise to release any pressure which may be trapped in the
valve body.
2. Carefully remove the grease plugs (see Figure 4-1).
Do not stand in front of the grease plugs
while removing them. Pressure which may
be trapped in the valve body could propel the
grease plugs out of the body. Injury to
personnel could result.

Figure 4-1: Location of Plugs
1. Check to confirm that the valve body cavity is full of grease. To check the 5,000/10,000
psi design, look into the body cavity through the plug hole located on the flat, back side
of the valve. If additional grease is necessary, inject grease into the valve through the
grease fitting on the side of the bonnet. To check the 15,000 psi valve design, inject
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-2

grease through the upper port until grease begins to flow out the lower port. Use
Shaffer grease or equivalent.
2. Replace the grease plugs.
3. Inject grease into the weepholes in the bonnet and the tailrod. The grease is to prevent
the water getting into the packing area.
Greasing the Bearings
Grease the valve bearings by injecting grease through the alemite fitting located in the
bearing housing. Use Shaffer grease or equivalent.
Checking for Leaks in the Valve Packing 5,000/10,000 psi Valves
The 5,000 and 10,000 psi valves are designed with a weep hole in the bonnet and a weep hole
between the bearing housing and the bonnet. Leakage from the weepholes indicates leaks in the
stem packing and gland O-ring respectively. Two external O-rings are installed over the
weepholes to prevent foreign matter from entering the weepholes. Check the weepholes weekly
for leaks.
1. Check the O-rings for discoloration check the weepholes for well pressure leakage.
2. If the weep hole in the bonnet is leaking, the stem packing components are not sealing
properly. If it is not possible to remove the valve from service for a complete packing
replacement, proceed to page 3-2 or page 4-20 for replacement instructions. If the
valve can be removed from service for a complete packing replacement, proceed to
page 4-22 for replacement instructions.
It is important that these O-rings be installed
as this prevents the ingress of foreign
material into the valve internals.
3. If the weep hole between the bearing housing and the bonnet is leaking, the gland O-
ring is not sealing properly. If the valve cannot be removed from service, proceed to
page 4-20 for replacement instructions. If the valve can be removed from service,
replace the O-ring by performing steps 1-8 of the procedure shown on page 4-22.
It is important that these O-rings be installed
as this prevents the ingress of foreign
material into the valve internals.
Checking for Leaks in the Valve Packing 15,000 psi Valves
The 15,000 psi valve is designed with a weep hole located on the tailrod packing assembly.
Leakage from the weep hole indicates a leak through the tailrod packing. An external O-ring is
installed over the weep hole to prevent foreign matter from entering.
Any fluid leaking between the handwheel hub and the bearing retainer flange or between the
bearing retainer flange and the bonnet indicates a leak through the bonnet packing.
1. Check the weep hole and around the bearing retainer flange area for well pressure
leakage.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-3

2. If fluid is observed around the bearing retainer flange, the stem packing element is not
sealing properly. If it is not possible to remove the valve from service for complete
packing replacement, proceed to page 3-3 for packing activation instructions. If the
valve can be removed from service for a complete packing replacement, proceed to
page 4-24 for stem packing replacement instructions.
3. If fluid is leaking from the weep hole at the tailrod packing gland assembly, the valve
must be removed from service for complete packing replacement. Proceed to page 4-
24 for stem packing replacement instructions.
Pressure Testing
The Type B Gate Valve should be pressure tested regularly to determine if any leaks have
developed in the valve seals. The gate valves may remain on the stack and on the manifold for
pressure testing. The gate valve pressure test is usually performed in conjunction with testing of
the preventers on the BOP stack. The gate valves should be tested, if possible, to their maximum
working pressure. Any valve which has been opened for field repair must be tested before being
returned to service.
General Principles for Pressure Testing the Gate Valves
The following general principles should be remembered when pressure testing any BOP stack
and/or valve manifold.
The gate valves are generally tested in order from the valves nearest the BOP stack to
those farthest from the stack.
Test the valves, if possible, to their maximum working pressure.
Precautions should be taken to ensure that
the pressure applied to any component in the
system does not exceed its working pressure
rating. Therefore, it may not be possible to
test the gate valves to their maximum
working pressure if that pressure exceeds the
working pressure of the other system
components.
Troubleshooting
Table 3 titled "Troubleshooting" identifies which seals and/or components of the Type B valve
need replacement based on the location of leaks during pressure testing procedures. Table 3
also indicates which repair procedure from Section 3 is required to replace the seals or
components.
During the testing procedure, check the Type B Valves for leakage at each of the locations listed
in column #l of Table 3 titled "Troubleshooting".
Corrective Maintenance
Always exercise extreme caution when repairing any valve or pressure control equipment. Always
understand the mechanics of the equipment being repaired (as described in Chapter 2 titled
"Functional Description") as well as the problem. When in doubt, call your Shaffer
representative.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-4

The procedures included in the Corrective Maintenance subsections are for Type B valves of the
new seat seal design. The seat assembly is identified by these features:
Metal-reinforced elastomeric seal in the seat face
O-ring spring installed at the rear of the seat.
In addition, some customers may have 3 1/16"15,000 psi valves with the reduced pocket seat
assembly. This seat assembly contains the elastomeric face seal, seat seals and O-ring spring
(see Appendix B).
The Table 4 titled "Recommended Lubricants" indicates the recommended lubricants for use
when reassembling the Type B Gate Valve.
Replacing Seat Seals of 5,000/10,000 psi Valves
The following procedure is for opening the 5,000/10,000 psi Type B Gate Valve for inspection and
if necessary, replacement of the seat seals, seats, grease plates, gates, and stems. Item
numbers in parentheses refer to the exploded views shown in Figure 5-2.
Disassembly Procedure
1. Set the valve in the half-open position. Refer to Table 5 to determine the number of
turns necessary to open the valve half way.
2. Bleed the line pressure. Cycle the valve several times by rotating the handwheel fully
clockwise and fully counterclockwise to release any pressure which may be trapped in
the valve body.
Be sure that all pressure is vented from the
valve body before continuing with the seat
replacement procedure. If the valve is
exposed to line pressure while under repair,
serious injury to personnel could result.
3. Turn the handwheel counterclockwise to open the valve fully. Remove the bonnet bolts
and lift the bonnet assembly, with the gate, out of the
valve body.
If the gate is wedged between the seats and
cannot be lifted out of the body, perform the
following steps:
1. Turn the handwheel clockwise to unscrew
the stem. As the stem is unscrewed the
bonnet will rise off the body. Continue until
a gap of 2-3" exists between the bonnet and
the body.
2. Insert several wooden blocks into the gap
between the bonnet and body.
3. Turn the handwheel counterclockwise to
pull the gate upward. In this manner the gate
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-5

can be jacked out from between the seats
(see Figure 3-2).

Figure 4-2: Jacking The Gate And Bonnet Out of The Body
1. Remove the gate and the gate bushing from the stem. Check the gate for scarring and
or washout. Replace the gate if it is badly scarred or damaged by washout.
2. Remove the grease plates from the seat assemblies. Set the grease plates aside.
Gradually work the seats out of the seat
pockets by prying alternately in the grooves
on both sides of the seats. Do not pry from
the top of the seats as this can jam the lower
rim of the seats into the seat pockets.
3. Remove the seat assemblies from the body. If the seats stick in the seat pockets use a
screwdriver or small pry bar to dislodge the seats from the pockets (see Figure 4-3).

Figure 4-3: Removing The Seat Assemblies Using A Screwdriver
4. If the valve has been removed from the manifold, a brass rod can also be used to
remove the seat. Insert the rod through one of the side bores and knock the rod against
the back side of the seat to dislodge the seat (see Figure 4-4).
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-6


Figure 4-4: Removing The Seat Assemblies Using A Brass Rod
5. Check the seat assemblies for wear or damage. The spring O-ring should be routinely
discarded and replaced. Check the elastomeric face seal. If it is badly worn, scarred or
damaged, discard it. Discard and replace the metal seats if they are badly scarred or
damaged by washout.
Reassembly Procedure
1. Clean the valve cavity. Carefully check the seat pockets for grit, dirt or any build up of
foreign matter that would prevent the seats from seating fully in the pockets.
Thoroughly clean and lubricate the seat pockets.
2. Install the elastomeric face seals into the new seals. See Figure 4-5 for proper
installation of seat seals. There are two acceptable methods of installing the
elastomeric face seals. The first method is as follows:
a. Place the seal into the groove in the face of the seat. Press down on the seal to
secure it lightly in the groove.
b. Place a smooth brass plate or piece of woodlarge enough to cover the entire
sealon top of the seal (see Figure 4-6). Tap gently with a rubber hammer around
the surface of the brass or wood to seat the elastomeric face seal firmly in the
groove. Remove the brass or wood and verify that the seal has seated fully and
evenly.

3. If a brass plate or piece of wood is not available, use the following method:
a. Place the seal into the groove in the face of the seat. Press down on the seal to
secure it lightly in the groove.
b. Turn the seat over so that the face seal is on the work surface (see Figure 4-7).
Verify that the work surface is smooth and wiped
clean of grease, dirt, grit, and debris.
4. Tap gently with a rubber hammer on the back edge of the seat to force the seat down
onto the seal. Turn the seat over. Check that the seal has seated fully and evenly in the
groove.

Figure 4-7: Installing The Elastomeric Face Seal Second Method
When installed, the seals should protrude from the seat faces between .005 and .020 inches.
The elastomeric face seals may be damaged if
they protrude more than .020 inches from the
seat face. Verify that the seals are properly
installed before continuing the assembly
procedure.
5. Install the spring O-ring onto each seat (see Figure 4-5).
6. Apply a generous amount of light oil to the seat ODs. Install the seal assemblies into
the seat pockets. Align the seats with the seat pockets and tap into place using a
rubber mallet or a brass rod. If the valve is removed from the manifold, the brass rod
can be inserted through the side bore opposite the seat being installed. Knock on the
front of the seat with the brass rod until the seat bottoms out in the seat pocket (see
Figure 3-8). The seats must be pushed fully into the seat pockets for proper operation.

Figure 4-8: Installing The Seat Assemblies
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-8

7. Install the grease plates onto the seat assemblies. Install the grease plates with the
large solid section facing downward and the guide rails facing each other across the
body cavity (see Figure 3-9). The guide rails encase the gate when the gate is lowered
into the body.

Figure 4-9: Correct Installation of Grease Plates
8. Remove any grit or dirt from the ring gasket groove in the upper end of the body. Apply
a generous amount of light oil to lubricate the bonnet gasket. Install the bonnet gasket
into the gasket groove.
9. Apply a generous amount of thread lubricant to the threaded bolt holes in the rim of the
body. Also apply lubricant to the threads of the bushing.
10. There are two acceptable methods of installing the gate and bonnet into the body.
Follow either Steps 9 and 10 or Steps 11 and 12 on the next page.
11. First Method: Install the gate bushing onto the gate. Thread the gate and gate bushing
upward onto the stem (see Figure 3-10).
a. Apply a generous amount of light oil to lubricate both face of the gate. Lower the
gate and bonnet assembly into the body (see Figure 3-10). As the assembly is
lowered, watch the gate carefully in order to align it with the gap between the
grease plates. Slowly lower the gate between the grease plates. Push the bonnet
assembly down until the bonnet meets the body.

Figure 4-10: Installing The Gate & Bonnet Into The Body
b. Second Method: Install the gate bushing onto the gate. Apply a generous amount
of light oil to lubricate both faces of the gate. Lower the gate assemblies into the
valve body between the grease plates and seat assemblies (see Figure 3-10). If
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-9

the gate is a tight fit between the seat assemblies, tap downward on the top of the
gate using a hard rubber mallet or brass rod. Tap the gate downward until it is at or
slightly below the rim of the body (see Figure 4-10).
The gate must be in the open or near-open
position before the bonnet bolts are installed
in Step 13. If the gate is closed, the gate will
bind in the valve body when the bolts are
tightened. The valve will not operate and will
be difficult to disassemble.
12. Lower the stem and bonnet assembly into the body. Thread the lower end of the stem
into the bushing by rotating the bonnet assembly or handwheel counterclockwise.
Continue to rotate the bonnet assembly until the bonnet meets the body and the gate is
in the open or near-open position. If the gate fell to the bottom of the body, an
additional six to seven full turns counterclockwise are required to pull the gate upward
into the open or near-open position.
13. Check to confirm that the gate is drawn up onto the stem, in the open or near-open
position. Rotate the bonnet assembly to align the bolt holes in the bonnet and the body.
Install the bonnet bolts into the bolt holes. Make up the bonnet bolts in the order shown
in Figure 4-11. Rotate pattern one bolt location and make up the balance of the bolts.
Tighten the bolts until the bonnet and the body meet fully. Refer to Table 1 for the
recommended torques.

Figure 4-11: Sequence for Tightening The Bonnet Bolts
14. Cycle the valve several times by turning the handwheel fully clockwise and fully
counterclockwise to confirm that the valve is properly assembled.
15. Fill the body cavity with grease. Use Shaffer valve grease or equivalent. Table 2 titled
"Grease Capacities of Type B Gate Valves" indicates the amount of grease required for
valves of each bore size and working pressure when the body cavity is empty. Remove
the plug located on the flat, back side of the valve. Inject grease into the valve through
the grease fitting on the side of the bonnet. Replace the plug.

Replacing Bearings of 5,000 and 10,000 psi Valves
This procedure applies to 5,000 and 10,000
psi valves only. The 15,000 psi valves are
not designed to contain line pressure by back
seating the stem. Do not attempt to perform
this procedure on 15,000 psi valves. If
15,000 psi valves leak at the stem packing,
the valve must be bled of all line pressure
and disassembled as instructed in the section
titled "Replacing the Stem Packing and
Tailrod Packing of 15,000 psi Valves".
Item numbers in parentheses refer to the exploded view shown in Figure 5-2. Recommended
lubricants are shown in Table 4.
Disassembly Procedure

press the bearing race firmly against the top of the packing gland in the bonnet. Install
a new bearing and a second new bearing race over the stem and on top of the lower
bearing race. (See warning on next page.)
Be certain that the dowel holes in the stem
and the stem adapter are pulled fully upward,
above the rim of the bonnet, so that the
dowel can be installed in a fully horizontal
manner. If the dowel holes of these two
pieces drop below the rim of the bonnet, the
dowel pin may shatter during insertion due to
the angle at which the pin must enter the
dowel holes. Injury to the operator might
result. See Figure 4-20 for the proper
positioning of the dowel holes.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-17


Figure 4-20: Installing the Dowel Pin

Replacing the Stem Packing by Back Seating the Stem
5,000/10,000 psi Valves

This procedure applies to 5,000 and 10,000 psi
valves only. The 15,000 psi valves are not
designed to contain line pressure by back seating
the stem. Do not attempt to perform this procedure
on 15,000 psi valves. If 15,000 psi valves leak at
the stem packing, the valve must be bled of all line
pressure and disassembled as instructed in the
section titled "Replacing the Stem Packing and
Tailrod Packing of 15,000 psi Valves".
If the secondary plastic stem packing cannot be packed externally through the plastic injection
fitting, (see the section titled "Activating the Secondary Plastic Stem Packing"), the stem
packing can be replaced while the valve is under pressure, after back seating the stem. When the
stem has been properly back seated, all line pressure is trapped in the valve body cavity enabling
the worker to safely disassemble the upper section of the valve for packing replacement. Item
numbers in parentheses refer to the exploded view shown in Figure 5-2. Recommended
lubricants are shown in Table 4.
1. Turn the handwheel fully clockwise to close the valve.
2. Turn the bearing housing three to four turns to loosen it.
3. Turn the handwheel clockwise until there is no further slack in the stem. The clockwise
turn allows the stem to rise and to engage the machined sealing shoulder in the bore of
the bonnet (see Figure 4-25).

Figure 4-21: 5,000/10,000 psi Valve in Back Seat Position
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-19

1. When all the slack in the stem has been eliminated, bump the handwheel to drive the
back seat of the stem onto the back seat shoulder in the bore of the bonnet.
2. Loosen the back seat test screw 1/2 turn. The back seat test screw is a 1/2" NC thread
which requires a 1/4" hex key (see Figure 4-22). (See warning below.)
Do not stand directly in front of the back seat
test screw while loosening it. If the valve has
not back seated properly, line pressure will
be present at the test screw. When the screw
is loosened, the line pressure may propel the
screw out of the valve. Injury to personnel
could occur.


Figure 4-22: Loosening Back Seat Test Screw
If the trapped pressure bleeds off rapidly and then ceases, the valve has successfully back
seated and the operator can proceed to Step 2 of the section titled "Replacing the Stem
Packing of 5,000/10,000 psi Valves ".
If the pressure continues to escape from the
back seat test screw, the valve has not back
seated successfully. If the valve cannot be
successfully back seated, do not continue
with the packing replacement procedure.
Tighten the back seat test screw and
reassemble the valve. The packing will have
to be replaced when the valve is free to line
pressure. See the section titled "Replacing
the Stem Packing of 5,000/10,000 psi
Valves".

Replacing the Stem Packing of 5,000/10,000 psi Valves
Item numbers in parentheses refer to the exploded view shown in Figure 5-2. Recommended
lubricants are shown in Table 4.
Disassembly Procedure
1. Bleed the line pressure. Cycle the valve several times by turning the handwheel fully
clockwise and fully counterclockwise to release any pressure which may be trapped in
the valve body.
Be sure that all line pressure is vented from
the valve body before continuing with the
packing replacement procedure. If the valve
is exposed to line pressure while under
repair, serious injury to personnel could
result.
2. Remove the handwheel bolt, the handwheel washer and the handwheel.
3. Remove the bearing housing from the bonnet.
4. Drive the dowel pin out of the stem adapter using a 1/4" pin punch.
5. Remove the stem adapter from the stem. When the stem adapter is removed from the
stem, the upper bearings and bearing races are also removed. In addition, remove the
lower bearings and bearing races from the bore of the bonnet. Check the bearings for
wear. If the bearings and bearing races are badly worn, discard and replace with new
bearings and bearing races.
Do not stand in front of the plastic injection
screw while removing it. Pressure which
might be trapped in the packing assembly
could propel the plastic injection screw out
of the hole in the bonnet. Injury to personnel
could result.
6. Carefully remove the plastic injection screw to relieve any line or plastic pressure.
7. Remove the packing gland from the upper bore of the bonnet. Remove and discard the
O-ring from the upper bore of the packing gland. Apply light oil to a new O-ring and
install the new O-ring into the upper bore of the packing gland.
8. Remove the modular bearing and the packing assembly from around the stem. Use a
packing puller to remove the packing assembly. Discard the old packing element.
Reassembly Procedure
1. Thoroughly clean and lubricate the stuffing box (the area between the stem and the
bore of the bonnet) prior to installing new packing.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-21

2. Lubricate the new rings of V-packing. Assemble the packing components in the order
shown in Figure 4-23. For proper sealing, the V-grooves of the V-packing must face
downward toward the valve body. Install the packing assembly with the modular
bearing over the stem and inside the stuffing box.

Figure 4-23: Correct Order of Stem Packing Elements for 5,000/10,000 psi Valves
3. Install the packing gland over the stem and into the bore of the bonnet. Tighten the
packing gland fully so that the gland shoulders against the inner bonnet shoulder.
4. Apply Shaffer valve grease to one of the bearing races. Slide the greased bearing race
over the stem and press the race firmly against the top of the packing gland in the
bonnet. Install a bearing and a second bearing race over the stem and on top of the
lower bearing race.
Be certain that the dowel holes in the stem
and the stem adapter are pulled fully upward,
above the rim of the bonnet, so that the
dowel can be installed in a fully horizontal
manner. If the dowel holes of these two
pieces drop below the rim of the bonnet, the
dowel pin may shatter during insertion due to
the angle at which the pin must enter the
dowel holes. Injury to the operator might
result. See Figure 4-24 for the proper
positioning of the dowel holes.

Figure 4-24: Installing the Dowel Pin
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-22

5. Install the stem adapter onto the stem. Tap the stem adapter fully downward onto the
stem. The grease on the lower bearing race holds the lower bearing race and bearings
in position while the stem adapter is installed. Align the dowel holes in the stem adapter
with the dowel hole in the stem. Install the dowel pin through these two pieces.
6. Install the upper bearing races and bearings onto the upper end of the stem adapter.
Be sure that the bearings and bearing races are in the proper position.
7. Make up the bearing housing onto the bonnet. The bearing housing must be tightened
fully into the bonnet to prevent the stem from dragging on the back seat.
8. Apply a small amount of light oil to lubricate the O-ring. Install the O-ring over the
bearing housing and into the seam between the bearing housing and the bonnet.
9. Install the handwheel over the upper end of the stem adapter.
10. Install the handwheel washer and the handwheel bolt onto the stem adapter. Tighten
fully.
11. Install a plastic plug into the bore of the plastic injection screw. Install the plastic
injection screw into the threaded hole provided in the outer surface of the bonnet Install
the injection plunger into the bore of the injection screw. Make up the plunger only until
about 3/8" remains between the head of the injection screw and the head of the
plunger.
12. Make certain that the grease fitting is tightened fully.
13. If the alemite fitting has been lost or damaged, replace it.

Item numbers in parentheses refer to the exploded view shown in Figure 5-3. Recommended
lubricants are shown in Table 4.
Disassembly Procedure to Replace Stem Packing
1. Bleed the line pressure. Cycle the valve several times by rotating the handwheel fully
clockwise and counterclockwise to release any pressure which may be trapped in the
valve body.
2. Rotate the handwheel fully counterclockwise to draw the gate upward into the open
position.
3. Remove the eight bonnet bolts from the bonnet. Lift the bonnet assembly, with the gate
and tailrod, out the of the valve body.
If the gate is wedged between the seats and
cannot be lifted out of the body, perform the
following steps:
1. Turn the handwheel clockwise to unscrew the
stem. As the stem is unscrewed the bonnet will
rise off the body. Continue until a gap of 2-3"
exists between the bonnet and the body.
2. Insert several wooden blocks into the gap
between the bonnet and body.
3. Turn the handwheel counterclockwise to pull
the gate upward. In this manner the gate can be
jacked out from between the seats (see Figure
4-25).
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-23



Figure 4-25: Jacking The Gate & Bonnet Out of The Body
1. Remove the gate and tailrod from the stem.
2. Rotate the handwheel fully clockwise to unthread the stem from the stem adapter. As
the stem unthreads it will protrude from the underside of the bonnet. Grip the stem and
remove it from the bore of the bonnet.
3. For convenience, remove the handwheel nut and the handwheel. Set the handwheel
aside. Replace the handwheel nut.
4. Remove the retainer nut from the lower bore of the bonnet.
5. Remove the packing assembly from the bonnet. Discard old packing assembly.
Reassembly Procedure of Stem Packing
1. Thoroughly clean and lubricate (with light oil) the stuffing box prior to installing new
packing.
2. Lubricate the new components of the packing assembly with clean grease. Assemble
the stem packing components in the order and position shown in Figure 4-26. Install
the packing assembly into the stuffing box. Tap the packing fully down.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-24


Figure 4-26: Correct Order of Stem Packing Elements for 15,000 psi Val ves
1. Install the retainer nut into the bore of the bonnet. Tighten the retainer nut fully.
2. Remove the handwheel nut. Install the handwheel and replace the handwheel nut.
Tighten the nut fully.
3. Coat the stem with a generous amount of light oil. Insert the threaded end of the stem
into the bore of the bonnet. Push the stem upward into the bonnet until the threads of
the stem contact the threads of the stem adapter. Rotate the handwheel
counterclockwise to draw the stem upward into the bonnet.
Disassembly of Tailrod Bonnet
1. Remove the four tailrod bolts and the tail rod flange from the tailrod bonnet.
2. Remove the packing assembly from the stuffing box in the tailrod bonnet. Discard the
old packing assembly.
Reassembly of Tailrod Bonnet
1. Thoroughly clean and lubricate (with light oil) the tailrod stuffing box prior to installing
the new packing.
2. Lubricate the new components of the packing assembly with clean grease. Assemble
the packing components in the order and position shown in Figure 4-27. Install the
packing ring, modular bearing, packing assembly, and packing ring into the stuffing
box. Tap the packing fully down.
The tailrod packing assembly includes two
packing rings at the lower end as shown in
Figure 4-27. If the valve tailrod flange has a
flat upper surface, use both packing rings. If
the valve tailrod flange has a 1/4" boss at the
bore, remove one packing ring from the
packing assembly. This packing ring must be
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-25

removed from the packing assembly to allow
room in the stuffing box for the boss.


Figure 4-27: Correct Order and Position of Tailrod Packing Elements
1. Set the tailrod flange onto the tailrod bonnet, aligning the four bolt holes. Install the four
tailrod bolts and tighten fully.
Reassembly of Valve
1. Remove any grit or dirt from the ring gasket groove in the upper end of the body. Apply
a generous amount of light oil to lubricate the bonnet gasket. Install the bonnet gasket
into the gasket groove.
2. Apply a generous amount of thread lubricant to the threaded bolt holes in the rim of the
body.
3. There are two acceptable methods of installing the gate and bonnet into the body.
Follow either Steps 4 and 5 or Steps 6 and 7.
4. First Method: Install the gate and tailrod, as a unit, onto the stem (see Figure 4-28).
Apply a generous amount of light oil to the tailrod and both faces of the gate.
5. Lower the bonnet/gate/tailrod assembly into the body. As the assembly is lowered,
watch the gate carefully in order to align it with the gap between the grease plates.
Slowly lower the gate between the grease plates. Push the bonnet assembly down until
it meets the body.
Exercise extreme caution to guide the end of
the tailrod straight into the bore or the tailrod
bonnet. If the tail is guided crookedly, it may
damage the tailrod bonnet or the tailrod
packing.
National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | : Maintenance 4-26

6. Second Method: Install the tailrod onto the gate. Apply a generous amount of light oil to
lubricate both faces of the gate and the tailrod. Lower the gate and tailrod into the valve
body between the grease plates and seat assemblies. (Refer to the previous Caution.)
If the gate is a tight fit between the seats, tap downward on the top of the gate using a
hard rubber mallet of brass rod until the T-groove at the top of the gate is approximately
2-3" above the rim of the body (see Figure 4-28). The T-groove must be raised up in
this manner in order to hook into the bottom of the stem when the bonnet and stem are
assembled onto the body.
7. Lower the stem and bonnet assembly into the body. Link the lower T-end of the stem
into the T-groove of the gate. Rotate the bonnet assembly counterclockwise and push
the bonnet downward, toward the body. Continue to rotate the bonnet assembly until
the bonnet meets the body and the gate is in the near open position.
The gate must be in the open or near-open
position before the bonnet bolts are installed
in Step 8. If the gate is closed the gate will
bind in the valve body when the bolts are
tightened. The valve will not operate and will
be difficult to disassemble.
8. Check to confirm that the gate is drawn up and the valve is in the open position. Rotate
the bonnet assembly to align the bolt holes in the bonnet and the body. Install the
bonnet bolts into the holes in the bonnet and body. Make up the bonnet bolts in the
order shown in Figure 4-29. Rotate pattern one bolt location and make up the balance
of the bolts. Tighten the bolts until the bonnet and the body meet fully. Refer to the
Table 1 for the recommended torques.
9. Cycle the valve several times by turning the handwheel fully clockwise and fully
counterclockwise to confirm that the valve is properly assembled.
