This chart is based upon the chemical 

viscosity of water (CPS = 1.0) and should 

only be used as a guide. Actual ratios and 

flow rates may vary due to product 

viscosity, flow pressure, and tubing 

distance.

 

CHOOSING DILUTION RATES

 

METERING TIP SELECTION

 

The dilution chart for Flex

-

Gap and Aire

-

Gap venturi are the same for both 1 

GPM and 4 GPM flow rates.  For each valve in the system, install appropriate 

metering tip from the chart below.  Be sure the metering tip is threaded in 

hand

-

tight only.

 

CALIBRATING ACTUAL PRODUCT RATIOS

 

To easily calculate the ounces per gallon for a specific product:

 

(1)

 

Fill a graduated cylinder, or bottle (that has ounce markings) with product.

 

(2)

 

Install metering tip closest to the desired ounces per gallon —

 

see dilution 

charts.

 

(3)

 

Drop chemical pick

-

up tube into the container holding the product.

 

(4)

 

Activate valve until chemical line is primed up to the metering tip.

 

(5)

 

Note how many ounces (of product) are in the container.

 

(6)

 

Activate valve again and fill a one gallon container with water/product mix.

 

(7)

 

Note how many ounces (of product) were used.

 

(8)

 

You now have determined actual ounces per gallon for this product.

GAP VENTURI

 

For Aire

-

Gap venturi systems, the flow rate is controlled by a nozzle, deflector plate, and venturi insert. These internal parts 

are color coded to identify their GPM rating: Aire

-

Gap Nozzle:  LIGHT GREY = 1 GPM / LIGHT BLUE = 4 GPM Splash 

Deflector & Venturi tube:  WHITE = 1 GPM / BLACK = 4 GPM. To change the Aire

-

Gap venturi:

 

(1)

 

Remove the cover by gently snapping it away from the unit.  Disconnect tubing from Aire

-

gap housing.

 

(2)

 

Twist and disconnect Aire

-

Gap housing counter

-

clockwise to remove water valve body.

 

(3)

 

Remove existing nozzle, deflector plate, and venturi tube by disassembling the Aire

-

Gap assembly —

 

See Figure 2.

 

(4)

 

Reassemble the Aire

-

Gap using new nozzle, splash deflector, and venturi tube (for the desired flow rate). To avoid 

leakage, install the rubber washer with the ribs facing upwards.

 

(5)

 

Put Aire

-

Gap assembly back in place in the order that parts were removed.

 

(6)

 

Twist and reconnect Aire

-

Gap assembly back onto the water valve body.
