Step 4:
a) Connect the optional solenoid valve to the Stainless flexible hose
attached to the bottom of the Upstream. Do not bend the hose excessively. Make
sure the sealing washer is inside the end of the hose before making the
connection. The optional solenoid valve plugs into the right hand side of the unit
where a port is provided.
The valve is a non-serviceable component and
nothing else should be plugged into this port.
Secure the cable from the
valve to the wall. The optional solenoid valve is normally closed and must be
powered to open. The valve has a manual override (white lever) that can be used
to force the valve open should you require water for service/emergency purposes
(note in the event of alarm and shut down it is recommended you boil your
water).
In any regulated sites such as municipal applications, the manual
override should not be used.
For normal operation, always leave valve in
automatic position. In the Setup menu of the Upstream, toggle the valve to be
“Installed” and a monthly reminder will appear to test valve.
b) If you did not purchase the optional solenoid valve simply attach the
Stainless flex hose to the bottom of the Upstream and to the plumbing fitting.
Caution: Do not allow solder or solder flux to fall in or on the unit.
Step 5:
Connect the remaining piping to the top Stainless flexible hose at the top
of the unit.
Do not use PVC pipe or braided hose at the outlet –
during
extended periods of no flow, water temperatures may exceed softening point of
PVC if unit fails to purge. Metal pipe or high temperature plastic pipe such as
PEX, should be used after the flexible hose. Make sure the sealing washer is
inside the end of the hose before making the connection. Do not bend the flexible
hose excessively. Tighten securely.
