NOTE The Low Flow Meter has a white dot on the connection for the wire harness.
NOTE If the ground from the electrical panel or breaker box to the water meter or underground copper pipe
is tied to the copper water lines and these lines are cut during installation of the straight-through
adapter, an approved grounding strap must be used between the two lines that have been cut in order
to maintain continuity. The length of the grounding strap will depend upon the number of units being
installed. In all cases where metal pipe was originally used and is later interrupted by the straight-
through adapter to maintain proper metallic pipe bonding, an approved ground clamp c/w not less
than #6 copper conductor must be used for continuity. Check your local electrical code for the correct
clamp and cable size.
Optional Bypass Valve Installation
Refer to Figure 14 and the instructions below to connect the meter,
bypass valve, and interconnecting pipe.
1. All HE units are equipped with a Soft-Minder
®
meter. The
meter is installed on the outlet side of the control valve.
The meter body fits in the same space as the coupling
between the control valve and the bypass. Make sure the
arrow on the flow meter is pointing in the direction of the
flow.
2. The bypass valve connects directly to the control valve
with the meter and coupling and two assembly pins.
Lubricate all O-rings on the couplings/meter with silicone
lubricant.
NOTE The Low Flow Meter has a white dot on the connec-
tion for the wire harness.
