3-WAY VALVE
The corrosion resistant 3-Way manual valve is attached with a metal bracket to the
center post of the machine, and is used as a selector to route either formulation or
flushing solution from their respective tanks to the nozzle.
This is done by placing the valve lever into either the “FORMULATION” position
(pointing down) or “FLUSH” position (pointing up).
3-WAY VALVE WORKING IN “FORMULATION” POSITION
In above diagram the 3-Way valve is working to dispense formulation (valve lever
pointing down). Upon the activation of the “Spray” button, the diaphragm pump will
draw liquid from the formulation tank and pass through the formulation filter, 3-way
valve and pump “IN” port.

IMPORTANT
:
Always turn the spray switch OFF at the
remote control before moving the lever of the
3-way valve. The 3-way valve should be
located with the lever up to Flush, or Down to
apply formulation. The position in the middle
(between “Formulation” and “Flush”) will stop
any flow of liquid. Do not operate the pump
(Spray ON) with the 3-way valve in a position
between “Formulation” and “Flush”.
