The mixing valve is supported by the inlet and
outlet pipework only, which must be suitably and
securely fastened.
Inlets and outlet are external BSP union, intended
to accept flat-faced connectors (see note). It is
recommended that such union connections are
used, so that the mixing valve body can be readily
removed from its pipework for maintenance
purposes.
Note!
Flat faced connectors are
not
supplied with
215-t3 oem, 215 dk or 222 dk models.
1.
Three additional connectors (see note above)
are supplied (2 elbows, 1 straight, terminating
in compression connections), which are
interchangeable to the inlets and outlet.
Select the most appropriate configuration for
the intended installation, and, with the nylon
washers in place, secure to the mixing valve
body.
2.
Fit and secure the supply pipework.
3. Important!
Flush through the hot and cold
supplies thoroughly before connection to
mixing valve.
4.
Connect the inlet and outlet pipework to the
valve.
Note!
Make sure that the hot and cold supplies
have been connected to the correct inlets, and
that all connections are watertight.

It is essential that inlet supply sockets
are parallel, and square with wall surface.

Join offset connectors and screw into sockets
so that faced edge is 34 mm proud of
final
wall
surface (refer to illustration). Shorten 1/2" BSP
external thread, if necessary.
