Description
Type 655 and 655R actuators (figure 1) are pressureactuated, spring-and-diaphragm actuators used in conjunction with various valves to provide control for a wide variety of pressure regulation applications. Type 655 actuators are used for pressure-reducing service when mounted on push-down-to-close valves such as the Design ED, EK, and ET valves. Type 655R actuators are used for pressure-relief service when mounted on push-down-to-open valves such as the Design EDR, EKR, and ETR valves. Both types are self-operated and direct-acting; that is, increasing pressure in the diaphragm casing forces the actuator stem downward, and decreasing the pressure allows the actuator spring to lift the actuator stem upward.

Installation
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage caused by bursting of pressureretaining parts, be certain the service conditions do not exceed the casing pressure limits listed in table 1. Use pressure-limiting or pressure-relieving devices to prevent service conditions from exceeding these limits. Type 655 and 655R actuators are normally shipped mounted on a valve. Refer to the appropriate valve instruction manual when installing the valve in the pipeline. If the actuator is shipped separately or if it is necessary to mount the actuator on the valve, perform the procedures described in the Actuator Mounting portion of this section. Before installing the actuator, inspect it for any damage. Also, keep any adjacent piping clean and free of pipe scale or other debris that could possibly disrupt service. It is recommended that a strainer be installed

Specifications
Specifications for the Type 655 and 655R actuators are shown in table 1. Information for a specific actuator is also found on the nameplate (figure 2) of that actuator.

in the pipeline ahead of the regulator or relief valve to protect it while in service. And a conventional threevalve bypass (see figure 3) should be placed around the regulator or relief valve to permit continuous operation when it is being installed or repaired. yoke to the mating shoulder on bonnet, and then add the valve plug travel to this measurement. c. Raise the actuator so the valve plug can be lifted off the seat ring. Note Either turn the actuator, or tighten the hex nuts together, and use a wrench on the hex nuts to turn the valve plug and stem assembly. Thread the valve stem into the actuator stem the distance measured in the previous step. d. Lower the actuator onto the valve body bonnet, and tighten the yoke locknut. e. Connect the pressure control lines as described in the Loading Connection portion of this section. f. Stroke the actuator, and measure the stem movement to check travel. If the movement is more than full travel, turn the valve stem out of the actuator stem the amount of over-travel. If movement is less than full travel, turn the valve stem into the actuator stem the amount of under-travel. For Push-Down-To-Open Valves: a. Place the actuator, yoke locknut, and travel indicator disk (key 11, if used) over the valve stem . Support the actuator above the valve body so the actuator stem and valve stem do not contact when the valve plug is seated. b. Connect the pressure control lines as described in the Loading Connection portion of this section. c. Move the valve plug, by hand, from the seated to the open position, and make sure that valve stem movement corresponds to the desired travel. d. Stroke the actuator until the diaphragm plate (key 4) contacts the down travel stop (see figure 4). e. With the valve plug positioned as described in step c above, lower the actuator until the actuator stem contacts the valve stem, and measure the distance from the bottom of the actuator yoke to the mating shoulder on the bonnet. f. Thread the valve stem into the actuator stem until the thread engagement is equal to the distance measured in the previous step. Tighten the hex nuts (key 12) together, and use a wrench to turn the valve plug and stem assembly.

Actuator Mounting
The actuator may be installed either above or below the pipeline. If the regulator or relief valve is to be used for steam service, the valve should be installed with the actuator positioned below the pipeline, and the control line should be sloped down toward the diaphragm casing. This is to ensure that any forming condensate will maintain a water seal to protect the diaphragm. The following procedure describes how to mount the actuator on either a push-down-to-close or a pushdown-to-open valve so that the actuator stem and valve stem thread engagement will allow full travel and proper shutoff. Refer to figure 4 for actuator mounting components. Key numbers refer to figure 5 unless otherwise stated. 1. Turn the adjusting screw (key 10) into the yoke (key 7) to force the diaphragm (key 2) and diaphragm plate (key 4) against the upper diaphragm casing (key 1). 2. Perform the following steps as appropriate for either push-down-to-close or push-down-to-open valve action.

CAUTION
In the following procedures, do not rotate the valve plug while it is seated since this may cause damage to the seating surfaces and thereby allow excessive leakage. Also, during travel adjustment, use tools carefully to avoid damaging the valve plug stem. A damaged stem could cut the packing and allow leakage. For Push-Down-To-Close Valves: a. Place the actuator part way over the valve stem. Then, place the yoke locknut over the valve stem, and slide the travel indicator disk (key 11, if used) on top of the hex nuts (key 12). b. Set the actuator onto the valve body. The length of the valve stem will prevent the actuator yoke (key 7) from sitting on the bonnet properly. Measure the distance from the bottom of the actuator

g. Lower the actuator onto the valve body bonnet, and tighten the yoke locknut. h. Stroke the actuator, and measure the stem movement to check travel. If the movement is more than full travel, turn the valve stem into the actuator stem the amount of over-travel. If the movement is less than full travel, turn the valve stem out of the actuator stem the amount of under-travel. 3. After correct travel has been obtained, tighten the hex nuts (key 12) against the actuator stem (key 8), and tighten the yoke locknut with a hammer and punch. Note Changing the spring adjustment will not change the actuator pressure range for that particular spring (see table 2). Changing the spring adjustment merely shifts the position of the spring either up or down so that valve travel can coincide with the actuator pressure setting range. 4. While monitoring loading pressure with a pressure gauge, stroke the actuator, and then turn the adjusting screw until the valve begins to travel at the desired pressure. Turn the adjusting screw out of the yoke to decrease spring compression and thus allow the valve to begin travel at a lower loading pressure. Turn the adjusting screw into the yoke to increase spring compression and thus allow the valve to begin travel at a higher loading pressure.

Startup
The procedures for placing into operation and adjusting the equipment for both pressure-reducing and pressure-relief applications are described below. Typical installation schematics are shown in figure 3.

Startup For Pressure-Reducing Service

1. Open the needle valve in the control line. 2. Open the downstream shutoff valve. 3. Close the valve in the bypass line. 4. Slowly open the upstream shutoff valve.

Startup For Pressure-Relief Service

1. Open the needle valve in the control line. 2. Open the downstream shutoff valve. 3. Slowly open the upstream shutoff valve. 4. Close the valve in the bypass line.

Adjustment For Pressure-Reducing or Pressure-Relief Service

The actuator is factory-set as specified on the order, and the pressure range is stamped on the nameplate (figure 2). If a pressure setting other than the one specified is desired, change the pressure setting by following the procedures listed below. Be sure to change the nameplate to indicate the new pressure setting. The new pressure setting must not exceed the limits given in tables 1 and 2 or in any applicable codes.

Loading Connections
Install the control line following the steps listed below. Typical installations are shown in figure 3. 1. Connect the control line into either the upstream pipeline for pressure-relief service or into the downstream pipeline for pressure-reducing service as shown in figure 3. Make the pipeline tap at least four to eight pipe diameters away from the regulator or relief valve, or any elbow, swage, or nipple, to avoid abnormal velocities or turbulence. 2. Connect the other end of the control line to the 1/2-inch NPT connection in the center of the upper diaphragm casing (key 1) or to the connection in the handwheel body (key 28, figures 6 and 7; key 142, figure 8). 3. Fit the control line with a large-port needle valve. Partially closing or throttling this valve will tend to dampen any cycling or pulsating action of the regulator. Never completely close the needle valve while the regulator is in operation.

CAUTION
To protect equipment in the process system from a sudden release of pressure, always use a pressure gauge to monitor pressure when making adjustments. To adjust the downstream pressure setting for pressure-reducing service, or the upstream pressure setting for pressure-relief service, proceed as follows. To decrease the pressure setting, turn the adjusting screw (key 10, figure 5) clockwise; to increase the pressure setting, turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise. If the spring does not provide the required pressure setting, replace it through the following steps: 1. Disassemble the actuator by following steps 1, 3 and 4 of the Disassembly portion of the Maintenance section. 2. Remove the diaphragm (key 2). Then, unscrew the cap screw (key 3), and lift the diaphragm plate (key 4) out of the actuator body.

Type 655 and 655R

3. Replace the spring and reassemble the actuator by following steps 5 and 6 of the Assembly portion of the Maintenance section.

Disassembly

CAUTION
In the following procedure, do not rotate the valve plug while it is seated since this may cause damage to the seating surfaces and thereby allow excessive leakage. Also, during travel adjustment, use tools carefully to avoid damaging the valve plug stem. A damaged stem could cut the packing and allow leakage. 1. Rotate the handwheel (if one is used) counterclockwise to be sure the handwheel is not compressing the spring (key 6). 2. For complete disassembly, the actuator must be removed from the valve, and the actuator stem (key 8) must be completely disengaged from the valve plug stem by rotating the actuator. Perform the appropriate procedure according to the respective valve action. For Push-Down-To-Close Valves: Note To prevent the actuator stem (key 8) from rotating while performing the following procedure, make sure the adjusting screw (key 10) remains screwed into the yoke (key 7). a. Loosen the two hex nuts (key 12). b. Loosen the yoke locknut (figure 4) with a hammer and punch, and unscrew it from the valve bonnet. c. While lifting the actuator so that the valve plug is not forced against the seat, rotate the entire actuator until the actuator stem disengages completely from the valve plug stem. For Push-Down-To-Open Valves: a. Turn the adjusting screw (key 10) counterclockwise to relieve all spring compression. Then, move the valve plug, by hand, off the seat. b. Loosen the hex nuts (key 12), and unscrew the valve plug stem out of the actuator stem as far as it will go. c. Turn the adjusting screw into the yoke (key 7) to force the diaphragm (key 2) and diaphragm plate (key 4) against the upper diaphragm casing (key 1). d. Loosen the yoke locknut (figure 4) with a hammer and punch, and unscrew it from the valve bonnet.

Shutdown
For both pressure-reducing and pressure-relief applications, refer to figure 3, and follow the procedures described below. 1. Close the upstream shutoff valve slightly. 2. Slowly open the bypass valve while monitoring downstream pressure. 3. Slowly close the downstream shutoff valve. 4. Close the upstream shutoff valve. 5. Close the needle valve in the control line.

Maintenance
Actuator parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected and replaced when necessary. The frequency of inspection and replacement depends on the severity of service conditions.

WARNING
Avoid personal injury or property damage from sudden release of pressure, uncontrolled process fluid, or precompressed spring force. Before starting disassembly: D Isolate the regulator or relief valve from the system pressure, and relieve all internal pressure D Release spring compression as described in step 2 of the Disassembly section The maintenance instructions are divided into two sections: Actuator and Top-Mounted Handwheel.

Actuator
This procedure describes how the actuator can be completely disassembled and assembled. When inspection or repairs are required, disassemble only those parts necessary to accomplish the job; then, start the assembly at the appropriate step. Key numbers refer to figure 5.

Type 655 and 655R

e. Rotate the entire actuator until the actuator stem disengages from the valve plug stem. 3. Turn the adjusting screw (key 10) counterclockwise out of the yoke (key 7) to relieve all spring compression. 4. To remove the upper diaphragm casing (key 1), unscrew the cap screws (key 19) for size 3A and 4A actuators or the cap screws and hex nuts (keys 19 and 20) for all other sizes. 5. Remove the diaphragm (key 2); then, lift the diaphragm plate (key 4) and actuator stem assembly out of the actuator body. Also, remove the spring and the lower spring seat (key 9). 6. For size 3A and 4A actuators, remove the lower diaphragm casing (key 5). 7. Remove the cap screw (key 3), and separate the diaphragm plate from the actuator stem. 8. For size 3B through 46 actuators, unscrew the cap screws (key 21), and remove the lower diaphragm casing (key 5). Some Type 655R actuators will have travel stops (key 13, not shown) in place of three of these six cap screws. 9. If a top-mounted handwheel assembly is used, refer to steps 4 through 8 of the Disassembly portion of the Top-Mounted Handwheel section. have enough slack inside the casings for efficient travel. 5. Secure the diaphragm plate (key 4) to the actuator stem (key 8) with the cap screw (key 3), and install this assembly into the actuator. Install the diaphragm, making sure that the patterned side of the diaphragm is next to the diaphragm plate. Note When replacing the upper diaphragm casing (key 1), be sure there are no wrinkles in the diaphragm that might cause the diaphragm to tear or allow leakage. 6. Place the upper diaphragm casing onto the lower diaphragm casing. For size 3A and 4A actuators, secure the casings with the cap screws (key 19). For all other actuator sizes, secure the casing with the cap screws and hex nuts (keys 19 and 20). Tighten the cap screws to no more than 20 foot-pounds (27 newton-meters) of torque using an even, crisscross pattern. 7. Mount the actuator onto the valve by following the procedures outlined in the Actuator Mounting portion of the installation section. 8. Connect the pressure control line by following the procedures outlined in the Loading Connections portion of the Installation section. 9. To start up and adjust the actuator, follow the procedures outlined in the Startup section of this instruction manual.

Assembly
This procedure assumes that the actuator is completely disassembled. If it is not, start the instructions at the appropriate step. 1. Before starting assembly, apply Molykote No. 77 or equivalent lubricant to the threads and the bearing end of the adjusting screw (key 10) as indicated in figure 5 by the letter A. 2. For size 3A and 4A actuators, set the lower diaphragm casing (key 5) onto the yoke (key 7). 3. For size 3B through 46 actuators, install the lower diaphragm casing (key 5), and secure it with the cap screws (key 21). Some Type 655R actuators will have travel stops (key 13, not shown) in place of three of these six cap screws. 4. Install the lower spring seat (key 9) and the actuator spring (key 6). Note To take some of the slack out of the diaphragm (key 2) at the bolt circle, turn the adjusting screw into the yoke (key 7) to raise the diaphragm plate (key 4). This will also ensure that the diaphragm will

Top-Mounted Handwheel
Top-mounted handwheel assemblies (figures 6, 7 and 8) are usually used as adjustable travel stops to limit full upward travel of the actuator stem. Turning the handwheel clockwise forces the actuator stem downward, while turning the handwheel counterclockwise allows the spring to force the actuator stem upward. If the actuator is used with a push-down-to-close valve, full opening of the valve plug can be restricted through the appropriate positioning of the top-mounted handwheel. If the actuator is used with a push-down-toopen valve, closing of the valve plug can be restricted by using the handwheel. A locknut (key 27, figures 6 and 7; key 137, figure 8) is used to hold the handwheel in position. Instructions are given below for complete disassembly and assembly. Perform the disassembly only as necessary to accomplish the required maintenance; then, begin the assembly at the appropriate step. Key numbers refer to figure 6 for size 3A and 4A, figure 7 for size 3B and 4B, and figure 8 for size 32 through 46 top-mounted handwheel assemblies.

Type 655 and 655R

Disassembly
1. Bypass the control valve. Relieve all loading pressure, and remove the tubing or pipe from the handwheel body. 2. Loosen the hex nut (key 27, figures 6 and 7; key 137, figure 8). Turn the adjusting screw (key 10, figure 5) and the handwheel (key 25, figures 6 and 7; key 51, figure 8) counterclockwise to relieve all compression. 3. For size 3A and 4A actuators, remove the cap screws (key 19, figure 5), and lift the handwheel body (key 28, figure 6) off the actuator. 4. For size 3B through 46 actuators, remove the cap screws and hex nuts (keys 19 and 20, figure 5), and then lift off the upper diaphragm casing (key 1, figure 5) and handwheel assembly. To replace the O-ring (key 139, figure 8) or for ease of handling, separate the handwheel assembly from the upper diaphragm casing. This can be accomplished by removing the cap screws that secure the handwheel assembly to the upper diaphragm casing (key 33, figure 7; key 141, figure 8). 5. Turn the handwheel clockwise two or three turns. Remove the hex nut (key 22, figures 6 and 7; key 54, figure 8) and washer (key 24, figures 6 and 7; key 134, figure 8), and lift off the handwheel. 6. Unscrew the locknut (key 27, figures 6 and 7; key 137, figure 8) from the handwheel stem (key 26, figures 6 and 7; key 133, figure 8), and then remove the handwheel stem through the bottom of the handwheel body (key 28, figures 6 and 7; key 142, figure 8). A screwdriver slot in the top of the handwheel stem is provided for this purpose. 7. Check the O-ring (key 29, figures 6 and 7; key 138, figure 8), and replace it if necessary. 8. To complete disassembly, drive out the groove pin (key 31, not shown; key 140, figure 8), and slide the pusher plate (key 32, figures 6 and 7; key 135, figure 8) off the handwheel stem. For Type 655, size 3B and 4B actuators, a travel stop (key 34, figure 7) should also be removed with these parts. threads, the pusher, and to the O-rings as shown in figures 6, 7 and 8. 2. Slide the pusher plate (key 32, figures 6 and 7; key 135, figure 8) onto the handwheel stem, and, if necessary, insert the groove pin (key 31, not shown; key 140, figure 8). For Type 655, size 3B and 4B actuators, a travel stop (key 34, figure 7) should also be inserted on the handwheel stem with these parts. 3. Insert the handwheel stem into the handwheel body (key 28, figures 6 and 7; key 142, figure 8); then, screw the hex nut (key 27, figures 6 and 7; key 137, figure 8) onto the handwheel stem. 4. Install the handwheel (key 25, figures 6 and 7; key 51, figure 8) and washer (key 24, figures 6 and 7; key 134, figure 8) onto the handwheel stem, and secure it with the hex nut (key 22, figures 6 and 7; key 54, figure 8). 5. For size 3A and 4A actuators, set the handwheel body onto the actuator, and secure it with the cap screws (key 19, figure 5). Tighten the cap screws to no more than 20 foot-pounds (27 newton-meters) of torque using an even, crisscross pattern. 6. For size 3B through 46 actuators, set the upper diaphragm casing (key 1, figure 5) and handwheel assembly onto the actuator body, and secure it with the cap screws and hex nuts (keys 19 and 20, figure 5). Tighten the cap screws to no more than 20 footpounds (27 newton-meters) of torque using an even, crisscross pattern. 7. Connect the pressure control line to the topmounted handwheel assembly by following the procedures outlined in the Loading Connections portion of the Installation section. 8. To start up and adjust the actuator, follow the procedures outlined in the Startup section of this instruction manual.

Assembly
This procedure assumes that the handwheel assembly is completely disassembled. If it is not, start the instructions at the appropriate step. 1. During assembly, apply Lubriplate MAG-1 lubricant (key 241) or equivalent to the handwheel stem and
