6 & 8. To fit solenoid valve: 

The couplers can be screwed onto both sides 

of the in-line solenoid valve. Ensure the seals 

provided are fitted as shown. Make good the 

joints, taking care not to use excessive force.

Tighten with an adjustable spanner

(25mm A/F).

7 & 9. 

Slip the compression nuts & olives onto 

the pipes. Fit the solenoid valve into the pipe-

work & make good the joints.

Observe flow direction.

Make sure the solenoid valve is orientated 

such that the electrical connectors are easily 

accessible.

10 & 11. To fit service valve:

Slip the compression nuts & olives onto the pipes. Fit the service valve into 

the pipe-work & make good the joints. Observe flow direction.

Make sure the service valve is orientated such that the filter cap & isolating 

screw are easily accessible for future maintenance.

Integral isolating/service valve

When the isolator screw slot is parallel to the 

valve body, the valve is open & permits water to flow.  

To close the valve, rotate the isolator screw 90°.
