STEP 8 

Allow pressure to stabilize. 

STEP 9 

Fine-tune the sustaining setting as required as detailed in STEP 7. 

STEP 10 

Open Opening Speed Flow Control Adjustment: 

The Opening 

Speed Flow Control allows free flow into the cover and restricted 
flow out of the cover of the main valve. 

If valve opening is too slow, turn the adjustment screw OUT, 
counterclockwise (See Figure 3B), increasing the rate of opening.  

If valve opening is too quick, turn the adjustment screw IN, clock-
wise (See Figure 3A), decreasing the rate of opening. 

STEP 11 

Closing Speed Needle Valve Adjustment: 

The closing speed 

needle valve regulates fluid pressure into the main valve cover 
chamber, controlling the valve closing speed. If valve closing is too 
slow, turn the adjustment screw OUT, counterclockwise, increas-
ing the rate of closing. 

STEP 12 

Open upstream isolation valve to return to normal operation.

STEP 13 

Manually operate the float linkage mechanism, allowing for the 
main valve to respond to the pilot. 

STEP 14 

Adjust Upper stop if main valve action allows the tank level to be 
higher than desired. When tank is full, valve starts closing (See 
Figure 4).

Setting the Sustaining Control

STEP 5 

Setting the Sustaining Control requires lowering the upstream 
pressure to the desired minimum sustained pressure. 

STEP 6 

Leave the downstream isolation valve fully open and close the 
upstream isolation valve until the inlet pressure drops to the 
desired setting. 

STEP 7 

Adjust the Sustaining Control screw IN, clockwise (See Figure 
2A), until the inlet pressure begins to increase, or OUT, counter-
clockwise (See Figure 2B) to decrease, stopping at the desired 
pressure.
