Related Model: Fisher V150 — Vee-Ball Rotary Control Valve. Sizes 1"-12", Classes 150-600. Application: General process control, high rangeability.
Trim Wear/Erosion: Valve trim (plug, seat ring, cage) erodes from high-velocity fluid, cavitation, or abrasive particles. Causes loss of control accuracy and increased leakage. Most common in V150/V200 after 2-4 years in erosive service.
Repair: Replace trim set (plug + seat ring + cage). Fisher trim is interchangeable between V150/V200/V300 bodies. Standard trim lead time: 2-4 weeks. Severe service trim (Cavitrol, WhisperFlo): 6-8 weeks.
Actuator Diaphragm Failure: Rubber diaphragm in Type 667/657 actuator develops cracks or tears from age, ozone, or chemical exposure. Valve loses fail-safe capability and may drift from setpoint.
Repair: Replace diaphragm and inspect actuator spring. Fisher diaphragm kits available for most sizes. Lead time: 1-2 weeks. Emergency: 2-3 days with expedited shipping.
Positioner replacement: 1-2 weeks — DVC6200 from stock
