Choice of insert
FlowCon ABM valves can be installed with either
a standard composite insert, internally adjust-
able to one of eight flow rates or the FlowCon
E-JUST insert, externally adjustable to one of 41
different flow rates in the same insert. Alterna-
tively, a factoryset stainless steel insert can be
installed with an adaptor.
It is recommended that the o-rings located
around the insert and adaptor are lubricated with
silicone grease, before the insert/adaptor is in-
stalled into the valve body.
IMPORTANT:
Never
use mineral oil or petrol based grease or oil on
the o-rings.
If the stainless steel insert needs to be ex-
changed, it is necessary to slightly cut the sides
of the grips on the adaptor with a box knife and
remove the insert by pulling the two now flexible
grips outwards on each side of the adaptor with
one hand and pulling the stainless steel insert
from the adaptor with the other. The o-ring will
come out as well.
Before installing the replacement insert, the
black composite part also needs to be replaced.
Simply remove the composite part using a small
piece of steel or brass bar or similar tool (ø10mm
and 150mm length). Place the ancillary tool
through the composite part and push down until
the part loosens a little; no need to use much
force. Then do the exact same thing from the op-
posite side of the part and the composite part is
now free and can be easily removed from the
brass head nut by hand.
The
new composite part is placed into the brass
head nut. Please be aware of the two marks
on each side of the composite part; these must
fit into the two grooves on the brass head nut.
When in place, push the two parts together until
they click and the adaptor is ready for use.
