D. Repositioning the Handwheel
The handwheel attachment design allows the wheel to be repositioned relative to the
handwheel shaft. This feature is useful if it is desired, for instance, to have the spinners
of adjacent handwheels in the same position when the valves are fully closed.
Holding the handwheel and/or the swivel, loosen the jam nut in the center of the
handwheel hub (9/16” socket). Pull the handwheel loose from the shaft and rotate the
handwheel to the desired position. While holding the handwheel and/or swivel, tighten
the jam nut to 150 to 200 in-lbs. Press the cap plug provided in to the center of the
handwheel hub.
E. Optional Indicator Light Module:
The 81383001 indicator light module is installed in the pump control panel above the
handwheel assembly. A panel cutout template can be found on the layout drawing
provided on page 8. Check for clearance behind the control panel to allow for the wiring
harness and light module. Insert the light module through the panel cut out and secure it
to the control panel using the stainless steel nuts and lock washers provided. The
pressure gage for each discharge valve should be installed above the light module
controlling that valve. Mounting location temperature should not exceed 150°F.
Each indicator light module (81383001) includes a power input connector with red and
black wire leads, as shown on the layout drawing. The leads have crimp connectors with
heat shrink tubing. Strip approximately 5/16” of insulation from the power source wire
and insert the stripped end into the crimp connector of the red lead and crimp with a
suitable crimper. Similarly, strip and crimp the ground wire to the black lead. After
crimping, use a heat gun or other heat source to shrink the tubing until the adhesive melts
and flows to seal the connection
An interconnecting harness is offered in several different lengths to connect the indicator
light module to the valve assembly. The harnesses may be used in combination with one
another to provide the length needed for your application. Refer to the layout drawing for
harness lengths and part numbers.
Do a final check of the valve (and optional 81383001 status indicator if used) for proper
operation.
IV. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
Turn the handwheel counter clockwise (CCW) to open the valve and clockwise (CW) to
close the valve. There are mechanical stops at the full closed and full open positions.
LED valve position display is described in section II.
