STEP 4 

Open downstream isolation valve to establish flow through the 
system.

STEP 5

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

STEP 6

Leave the downstream isolation valve full open and close the up-
stream isolation valve until the inlet pressure drops to the desired 
setting.

STEP 7

Adjust the Sustaining Control screw IN, clockwise, until the inlet 
pressure begins to increase, or OUT, counterclockwise, to de-
crease, stopping at the desired pressure (See Figure 2).
