F180 Series Excess Flow Valves for
Compressed Air Service
!
WARNING
Failure to follow these instructions or to
properly install and maintain this
equipment could result in property
damage and personal injury or death.
Fisher®equipment must be installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance
with federal, state, and local codes and
Fisher instructions.
Only personnel trained in the proper
procedures, codes, standards, and
regulations of the applicable industries
should install and service this equipment.
!
WARNING
A break or leak downstream of an
excess ow valve that does not allow a
ow equal to the valve ow rating will
not actuate the excess ow valve and
could result in property damage or
personal injury from a whipping hose or
high volume discharge of air. For this
reason the operator must be familiar
with the system shutoff valves and close
the system if an emergency occurs.
Introduction
Scope of Manual
This instruction manual covers installation and
maintenance for F180 Series excess ow valves used
on compressed air service.

Specications
Description
Excess ow check valves close when the ow rate
of air exceeds the valve’s rated ow capacity. They
are used to protect against the dangers of a whipping
hose. The valves are available in a variety of sizes
and body congurations.
When ow exceeds the valve’s setting, the valve
closes and remains closed until the system equalizes.
A built-in equalizing passage automatically opens the
valve once pressures on both sides of the poppet
are equal.
Specications
CAUTION
If the valve is to be used in service other
than compressed air, contact the factory
to determine if the valve materials are
suitable for the particular service.
Valves with brass materials must
not be used on anhydrous ammonia
(NH3) service.
Installation
CAUTION
Do not install the valve in any hose or
piping which tends to restrict the valve
inlet. This may prevent the excess ow
valve from closing.
Flow through the excess ow valve must
be in the same direction as the ow
arrow stamped on the valve.
1. A rule of thumb for sizing excess ow valves is
to choose a valve with a closing ow 1.5 times the
maximum operating ow. For surge conditions,
2 times maximum ow may be required.
However, the excess ow valve’s closing ow rate
must be less than the capacity of the compressed
air system in which the valve is being used. The ow
rating of the piping, ttings, pump, valves, and hose
on both the inlet and outlet of the excess ow valve
must be greater than the ow rating of the excess ow
valve. If branching, piping length, additional valves,
reduction in pipe size, elbows, or other necessary

components in the piping system create restrictions
which reduce the ow rating to less than that of the
excess ow valve rating, the valve will not give excess
ow protection, and additional excess ow valves must
be installed at these points.
2. Brass valves are not suitable for anhydrous
ammonia (NH3) applications.
3. Manually operate the excess ow valve’s poppet
before installation to assure parts were not
damaged in shipment or blocked with dirt or
foreign material.
4. Use pipe dope on the male threads of the valve or
the pipeline. Polytetrauoroethylene (PTFE) tape
or PTFE pipe dope compound is recommended for
the male threads of the larger valves such as the
2 and 3-inch sizes.
5. After the excess ow valve is installed, the system
should be tested for excess ow valve operation
by simulating a break downstream in the system
at the furthermost point being protected. To test
the unit, pressure the system and then open a
shutoff valve quickly at the farthest point in the
piping that the excess ow valve is intended to
protect. There should be a sudden decrease in
ow, indicating that the valve has closed and is
working properly. Because of the bleed that
permits the valve to equalize itself, a small amount
of leakage will continue after the excess ow
check closes.
6. To reopen a closed excess ow valve, close a
shutoff valve on either the upstream or
downstream piping. When pressure is equal on
both sides of the valve, it will “click” open and ow
can be resumed by opening the shutoff valve.
!
WARNING
Trained personnel should test the
excess ow valve in a safe location.
Excess ow closure should be checked
annually or on a regularly scheduled
basis to insure that the valve is
still functional.
Maintenance
Excess ow valves are non-repairable. Replace
non-functioning valves.
Troubleshooting
If the excess ow valve fails to close – check
the following:
1. Flow direction is the same direction as
arrow stamped on the valve.
2. Shut off valves on the inlet and outlet of the
piping are fully open.
3. Restrictions on the inlet or outlet of the excess
ow valve are restricting ow into or out of
the valve.
4. Flow capacity at point of test is not great enough
to close the excess ow valve.
5. Pipe scale, welding slag, or other debris is holding
the valve open.
Premature closing or valve chattering – check
the following:
1. Surge conditions – Increase ow slowly to
prevent surge. A larger excess closing ow may
be required.
2. Chattering – Normal ow conditions may be too
near to the closing ow rate, or ow direction is
wrong or back owing is occuring.
3. Restriction on inlet of valve.
!
WARNING
Back owing or owing too near to the
excess ow valve closing rate may cause
chattering which may result in excessive
wear on parts and valve failure.
