Spence Type N6 Differential Pressure Valves

▲ WARNING

Failure to follow these instructions or

to properly install and maintain this

equipment could result property damage

and personal injury or death.

Type N6 differential pressure valves

must be installed, operated and

maintained in accordance with federal,

state and local codes, rules and

regulations and Emerson Process

Management Regulator Technologies,

Inc. (Emerson) instructions.

If the valve vents gas or a leak develops

in the system, service to the unit may be

required. Failure to correct issue could

result in a hazardous condition.

Installation, operation and maintenance

procedures performed by unqualified

personnel may result in improper

adjustment and unsafe operation. Either

condition may result in equipment

damage or personal injury. Only a

qualified person shall install or service

the Type N6 differential pressure valves.

Introduction

Scope of the Manual

This manual provides instructions for the installation,

troubleshooting, maintenance, valve setting and parts

ordering for Type N6 differential pressure valves.

Product Description

Type N6 differential pressure valves are designed

to maintain pump discharge pressures at a constant

differential above a separate source of pressure.

When installed in a boiler feed pump discharge line

Figure 1. Type N6 Dierential Pressure Valves

November 2021

Instruction Manual

VCIMD-16088

as a by-pass valve, a connection from the stream

drum is made to the top chamber of the Type N6.

The desired differential is made by adjusting the

spring. The boiler feed-water pressure will then be

maintained by Type N6 at a constant pressure above

steam drum pressure by modulating the quantity of

water by-passed to pump section. When installed in

a by-pass line across a pumped system, Type N6

will maintain a constant differential of supply main

pressure over return main pressure by modulating the

quantity of by-passed water.

Type N6

Specifications

This section lists the specifications for the Type N6 differential pressure valves. Factory specifications are

stamped on the nameplate fastened on the valve at the factory.

Principle of Operation

Flow enters the valve such that the initial pressure acts

against the working face of the disk and tends to move

it open. Opposing the opening are the forces of the

differential adjusting spring and the loading pressure

acting on the piston. The differential adjusting spring

force creates the differential between the retained

pressure (supply main or boiler feed water) under the

disk and the loading pressure (return main or boiler

drum) on top of the piston.

Type N6

Startup and Adjustment

1. Type N6 valves are shipped with the adjusting

spring precompressed. This precompression

may result in a differential pressure higher than

desired. Remove adjusting screw cover and

loosen adjusting screw locknut. It is recommended

that the precompression be removed by turning

the adjusting screw counter-clockwise until the

screw turns easily indicating the spring load has

been removed.

2. Open the inlet stop valve gradually until the

Type N6 differential valve takes control as

indicated by the differential pressure gauge.

3. Turn adjusting screw clockwise to increase the

differential pressure and counter-clockwise to

decrease it.

4. With no compression on the adjusting spring the

pump discharge pressure and the boiler pressure

applied to the spring chamber will be the same,

due to the fact that the piston and the disk have

the same area and are balanced. To increase

differential pressure, compress adjusting spring

until desired differential is obtained.

Maintenance

▲ WARNING

To avoid personal injury, property

damage or equipment damage caused by

sudden release of pressure or explosion

of accumulated gas, do not attempt any

maintenance or disassembly without first

isolating the valve from system pressure

and relieving all internal pressure from

the valve.

Installation

▲ WARNING

Personal injury or system damage may

result if this valve is installed, without

appropriate overpressure protection,

where service conditions could exceed

the limits given in the Specifications

section and/or valve nameplate.

Additionally, physical damage to the

valve may result in personal injury or

property damage due to escaping of

accumulated gas. To avoid such injury

and damage, install the valve in a

safe location.

Under enclosed conditions or indoors,

escaping gas may accumulate and be an

explosion hazard. In this case, the vent

should be piped outdoors.

For valve constructions with a spring

case vent, the vent should be kept

open to permit free flow of gas to the

atmosphere. Protect openings against

entrance of rain, snow, insects or any

other foreign material that may plug the

spring case vent or vent line.

All pressure equipment should be

installed in a non-seismic area;

should not be exposed to fire; and

should be protected from thunderbolt

(lightning) strikes.

△ CAUTION

After the valve is in service at operating

pressure and temperature, check all

gasketed joints and re-tighten. Failure to

follow these instructions may result in

damage to gaskets and mating surfaces.

• Carefully clear inlet piping system of foreign

matter such as: welding beads, scale, sand, pipe

compound, etc.

• Allow head room above the valve for maintenance.

• Provide a three-valve by-pass to facilitate

inspection of the regulator without

interrupting service.

• Preferred position for Type N6 valve is in a

horizontal line with spring chamber up and arrow on

body pointing in direction of flow.

• The loading line should be 1/4-in. pipe connected to

the spring chamber tap.

• Avoid damaging effects of foreign matter in the flow

by using Emerson strainer ahead of the valve.

Type N6

Valve Grinding

1. Use fine (grit 400 to 800) compound on the seat,

using light pressure.

2. Check seating by blueing the valve disk bevel face

before reassembling.

3. Clean all parts with kerosene or carbon

tetrachloride before reassembling.

4. Lubricate sealing ring (key 13) with a silicone

lubricant or soap solution to facilitate insertion into

guide area of body. Do not use petroleum base

lubricants on rubber sealing rings.

Dismantling Type N6 Valve

for Cleaning

1. Shut off supply and discharge valves and line from

steam headers.

2. Remove top cap (key 1).

3. Loosen lock nut (key 3) and unscrew adjusting

screw (key 2) until spring tension is released. (This

step can be omitted if setting adjustments cannot

be made after cleaning).

4. Disconnect pressure sensing line from boiler

steam header.

5. Remove the four spring chamber hex head

nuts (key 9).

6. Separate spring chamber (key 6) from the valve

body (key 20). Spring (key 7) and buttons (key 5)

will drop out.

Troubleshooting

1. Failure to Open—differential too high.

a. Differential adjusting spring setting may have

been tampered with.

b. Valve piston (key 14) and sealing ring (key 13)

may be binding.

c. Valve stem (key 18) and bushing (key 19) may

be binding.

2. Failure to Close—differential too low.

a. Foreign material may be between the seat and

disk of the main valve.

b. Line from steam header may be plugged,

restricted or broken.

c. Differential adjusting spring setting may have

been tampered with.

d. Chamber "C" may be dirt plugged or port in

bushing (key 19) may be plugged.

e. O-ring or piston may be damaged and leaking.

To avoid possible personal injury from

spring or pressure-loaded actuator,

make sure that the adjusting screw is

completely backed off or the spring case

pressure is vented prior to disassembly.

Otherwise, the spring load or loading

pressure could forcefully eject the

spring case.

Valves that have been disassembled

for repair must be tested for proper

operation before being returned to

service. Only parts manufactured by

Emerson should be used for repairing

this valve.

Under normal conditions, complete dismantling

at regular intervals is not recommended. A valve

kept relatively free of dirt will function for years with

minimum attention.

After the first few days of operation and twice a year:

1. Inspect for dirt collected in chamber "C". Remove

plug (key 22) to "blow down".

2. Inspect for dirt collected in cylinder (key 12).

3. Inspect all joints for leakage. Keep all joints tight,

never allow a leak to persist.

7. Remove valve disk assembly which consists of

keys 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 18.

8. Assemble in reverse order. Use silicone lubricant

on piston (key 14) so that it will move freely

through sealing ring (key 13).
