The actuator tube should be tilting down
to the left (brass end lowest).
note:
the
chain is not connected at this stage.

Rotate the tail of the valve with a wrench
until the spirit level indicates that the
valve is
absolutely level
. The actuator
tube is actually angled 26º from horizontal
at this point.

The length of this chain determines the
opening water level and the position of
the float on the chain determines the
closing level and the delay.

closing Water level (tWl)
When the
actuator tube is held horizontal, the
closing water level is indicated by the
base of the closing float. Identify the
desired maximum water level & measure
the distance from the centre line of the
valve; this is X.
17
oPening Water level (lWl)
When the
actuator tube is held horizontal, the
opening water level is indicated by a line
on the opening buoy. Identify the desired
minimum water level & measure the
distance from the centre line of the valve;
this is Y.
