Service
The strainer screen should be serviced at least twice
a year.
This series is a new development for standard capacity domes-
tic water regulation service. It has special unitized construction
which consists of the seat, disc and stem assembly, and strainer
screen all together in one unit for complete replacement
maintenance.
To clean or replace parts:
1.
Close the shutoff valve upstream of the regulator.
2.
Bleed pressure from system.
3.
Loosen and remove the fast fi ll cap. Remove the spring
cage and all parts above the diaphragm.
4.
Loosen and remove the diaphragm lock nut and lock washer,
pressure plate and diaphragm from the valve stem.
5.
Unscrew seat cylinder from body and remove
entire assembly.
6.
Prior to reassembly fl ush valve to remove sediment.
7.
After repairs are completed reassemble in reverse order.
Troubleshooting
A dripping Pressure Safety Relief Valve can be an indication that
the Feed Water Pressure Regulator requires service.
Important:
The pressure Safety Relief Valve is on the system to
protect against excessive water pressure only. The function of the
valve is to release any excess pressure from the system caused
by thermal expansion of the water. Therefore, do not be alarmed
at water drippage as the valve is doing what it is designed to do.
This drippage will not prevent the natural buildup of temperature
in the boiler because the valve operates on pressure only. The
valve will open when the gauge pressure reaches 30 lbs.
To avoid water damage or scalding due to valve operation, a
drain pipe must be connected to the Pressure Safety Relief Valve
and run to a safe place of disposal.
Never plug the discharge of a pressure safety relief valve!
Other possible causes should also be examined prior to servicing
the regulator. Some other possible causes are a water logged air
cushion tank, an over pressurized diaphragm style air cushion
tank, an undersized air cushion tank and, on systems with a
domestic water coil, a leak in the tankless coil.
Periodic inspection of the system by a qualifi ed plumbing and
heating technician is recommended. Corrosive water conditions,
extremely high water temperatures, unauthorized adjustments or
repair could render the valve ineffective for the service intended.
Regular inspection and cleaning of all water safety and control
valves assures maximum life and proper product and system
function.
