1
SS-TH50 - 1/2” MINIATURE THERMOSTATIC VALVE
Features:
•
Ability to pre-select water temperature – thus conserving water
•
Compensates for water pressure fluctuations preventing scalding
•
Safety button at 100°F prevents accidental scalding
•
High flow rates allow for multiple shower applications
•
Listed by NSF
Specifications:
o
Operating pressure is 20 PSI to 85 PSI
o
When pressure is higher than 85 PSI a pressure reducer (fitted before the valve) is required.
o
Temperature range is 60°F to 115°F
o
Recommended supply setting is 45 PSI and 150°F
Note:
•
DO NOT USE PLUMBER’S PUTTY ON ANY OF THE BRASS COMPONENTS
This will cause the finish to tarnish and void the warranty. A non-corrosive Alkoxy Silicone is
recommended.
•
DURING SWEATING OF LINES DO NOT OVERHEAT CASTING
Overheating may cause damage to internal mechanism and void the manufacturer’s warranty as
well as increase the risk of scalding.
•
COPPER ADAPTORS MAY BE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE YOUR INSTALLATION
•
Shipping weight (lbs.): 4
•
Shipping dimension (in.): 6 x 5 x 4.5
Note:
•
Separate wall stops/shut off valves/volume controls (SS-TS150 or SS-TS200) may be needed in
conjunction with this valve. A thermostatic valve’s only function is to mix temperature.
