Series 2700A Control Valve Operation and …

1 Series 2700A Control Valve Operation and Maintenance INTRODUCTION WARNING. Maximum allowable pressures for the Valve body and Scope actuator and the maximum allowable pressure at the maximum temperature for the Valve are shown on the This instruction manual includes installation, Operation and nameplate mounted on the actuator. If pressure to the maintenance information for 1" through 8" Norriseal Series Valve is capable of exceeding these limits, install relief 2700A Control valves . Please refer to separate manuals for valves or other over-pressure protection devices in the instructions covering controllers and positioners. pressure lines. CAUTION.

5 Check for proper Valve housing of each Valve assembly. The nameplate lists the Operation by cycling actuator several times and serial number, Series number and model number as well as observing stem movement. other information applicable to the particular Valve assembly, including trim size, trim and plug materials, and pressure and temperature limits. Valve model numbers are 13 positions long; with a typical model number being RF-14 AFDCT9NO. Table 1 relates model number positions to Valve configuration. Always refer to Series and model numbers, for the Valve nameplate, when ordering replacement parts. Maintained by: Sales Department Page 1 of 9 Doc.
