Installation Preferred valve orientation for the A11 valve is reverse flow direction. Reverse flow direction is into the side of the valve body opposite the retaining ring or into the shaft side of the disc. For erosive and many severe service applications, valves with bidirectional seals can and should be installed with the shaft horizontal and in the forward flow direction to prevent direct impingement of the process media on the seal, and to minimize the exposure of the shaft bearings to the process media. 4 The standard soft seal and the Phoenix III seal both offer bidirectional shutoff. Valves using either metal, NOVEX, or cryogenic seals are unidirectional and must be installed in the reverse flow orientation. For assistance in selecting the appropriate combination of actuator action and open valve position, consult your Emerson Process Management sales office. Dimensions and weights for wafer-style and single-flange valves are shown in figures 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7.
