Optional Bypass Valve Installation
Refer to Figure 16 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.
