Installation, commissioning and service instructions

Function

ASSE 1017 model 5231 series high flow thermostatic mixing valves are 
designed to be installed at the hot water heater (point of distribution) and 
cannot be used for tempering water temperature at fixtures as a point-of-use 
valve. They are not designed to provide scald protection and should not 
be used where ASSE 1070 devices are required. Series 5231 thermostatic 
mixing valves can also be used for regulating the flow temperature in radiant 
panel heating systems, to which it assures a constant and accurate control 
with ease of installation.
