SEE BELOW FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON REINSTALLING THE ADV DIAPHRAGM.
Note that proper assembly procedures must be followed. Prior to removing the ADV diaphragm, it would be good to
have a spare diaphragm handy as reinstalling an old diaphragm can be tricky if it is stretched.
*NOTE: A damaged ADV diaphragm assembly &/or valve stem will either deliver too much diluent gas, or
none at all.
*NOTE: It is important that the proper installation procedures are followed or the diaphragm will leak!! It
is also important that proper testing procedures are followed so that the diaphragm is not stretched out!!!
Installing the ADV diaphragm:
When you are ready to attach either the original diaphragm or a new one, first inspect it. If you are reinstalling the
original one, this is very important. If the diaphragm has stretch marks by the screw holes, it would be best to use a
new one instead. A diaphragm in this condition is very difficult to reinstall. The stretch marks are a result of doing long
negative tests on the unit. Remember, a negative test should only be about 1 minute long. Please see testing section
for the proper testing instructions. Again, if you are planning on opening up the diaphragm area, I would strongly sug‐
gest that you have a new diaphragm on hand.
Insert the screws through the ADV cover until one or two threads are showing and then push the diaphragm through
the screws. Carefully place the assembly against the scrubber head and hold it firmly in place with one hand, while
turning the screws with the other. If while placing the assembly against the head, the diaphragm shifts, start again. It
must be aligned properly.
Turn each screw only a half turn or so before alternating to another screw. Watch carefully and stop turning as soon as
the bottom of the screw touches the plastic cover. There will be no gap between the underside of the screw and the
cover, but the screws will not have started getting more difficult to turn yet. Look at the diaphragm and ensure that it
looks proper. It should not be twisted. Turn the screws another 1 to 2 mm. Then turn them another 1 mm. Remem‐
ber not to over tighten the screws. If the screws are over tightened, the diaphragm will leak. If you are having a prob‐
lem in this area, do a positive pressure test and then back the screws off slightly until the leak stops. The adjustment
will be very slight.
We have tested this method both with and without lubricant on the diaphragm holes. We have found that it is better
to NOT use lubricant in this area, as it can make it more difficult.
If you are using a new diaphragm, ensure that when you attach the plastic button and screw to it, that you do not over
tighten this assembly. Again, this is a case where over tightening can cause a leak. On the other hand, if the button as‐
sembly is loose, air can leak through this area.
*NOTE: Severely over tightening the ADV diaphragm screws can damage the threads on the KISS head!!!
