Steam/Water Mixing Stations (MkII valves - 2002 onwards) Safety and Operation

Note: 

Before actioning any maintenance programme observe the 'Safety information' in Section 1.

5.1 Importance of cleaning

Regular cleaning of the mixing valve and hose gun is required to prevent scale build-up and continued safe 

operation. This is especially important if they are used in hard water areas. In the event of mixing valve failure 

the TCO1 will operate and close at a temperature of 95

 

°C (203

 

°F). It is not re-settable and the mixing valve 

must be inspected in order to discover the reason for the valve going over temperature, and serviced before 

the temperature sensitive element in the TCO1 is replaced. If inspection of the mixing valve has not explained 

the reason for the TCO1 failure, the rest of the mixing valve station and all supply pipework and attendant 

pressures must be reviewed until the fault has been traced and rectified; please see Section 7, 'Fault finding'. 

The hosedown station must not be used until any rectification work has been completed.

 The element must 

be replaced before recommencing operation of the hosedown station.

 

The spares pack (see Section 6) is the same for 

½

" and 

¾

" hosedown stations. 

The hosedown station must always be operated with an element in the TCO1 to prevent steam 

reaching the hose. In the event that the hosedown station is used without an element in the TCO1 

then Spirax Sarco will not accept any consequential liability for the operation of the hosedown 

station in this manner.

Following operation of the TCO1, the hose and hosedown gun should be inspected for any sign of wear or 

damage. The hosedown station should form part of a regular maintenance programme, appropriate to the 

operating conditions and environment.

5.2 Cleaning procedure 

(To be carried out by suitably qualified persons only)

When carrying out cleaning of the valve consideration should be given to total valve refurbishment by fitting 

a maintenance kit. Turn off and isolate the steam and water supplies, remove any residual pressure from the 

system by operating the hose gun and remove the gun from the hose. If the gun is to be cleaned (Reassemble 

the gun to the hose following Figures 9, 10 and 11, page 16). Undo the 3 union joints and remove the mixing 

valve from its fixings and move it to a maintenance area. Before reassembly ensure all union joint gasket 

faces are clean and ready to receive the new gaskets.

Referring to Figure 14. Remove the temperature adjustment knob (

12

) by loosening the holding screw (

10

). 

Unscrew the upper head (

1

) and remove the fixed loading spring (

11

). Remove the upper body (

3

) by taking 

out the 8 x 6 mm set screws (

½"

 and 

¾"

 mixing valve); 8 x 8 mm set screws (1" and 1

½

" mixing valve). The 

upper and lower bodies may be eased apart. All parts should now be cleaned using a proprietary de-scaler. 

Note: Metal scrapers should not be used as this may cause permanent damage to the components. 

Before reassembly please ensure that all sealing surfaces are clean ready to receive the new 

gaskets and 'O' rings. (If the valve plug (6) is worn or damaged this should be replaced). Reassemble 

the mixing valve and test for correct operation.
