STEP 8

Allow pressure to stabilize.

STEP 9

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

STEP 10

Open the upstream isolation valve to return to normal operation.

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 the downstream 
pressure fluctuates slightly above the desired set point, turn the 
adjustment screw OUT, counterclockwise, increasing the rate of 
closing.

(IF INSTALLED) Opening Speed Flow Control Adjustment: The 
Opening speed flow control allows free flow into the cover and re-
stricted flow out of the cover of the main valve. If recovery of pres-
sure is slow upon increased downstream demand, turn the adjust-
ment screw OUT, counterclockwise, increasing the rate of open-
ing. IF recovery of downstream pressure is too quick, as indicated 
in a rapid increase in pressure, possibly higher than the desired 
set-point, turn the adjustment screw IN, clockwise, decreasing the 
rate of opening (See Figure 3).
