water tempering and recirculation loop is an eco-

nomical way to provide a safe, balanced system for stand-alone master tempering

valves The system monitors return line temperature and automatically directs

water to the cold side of the tempering valve (if within set point) or to the hot water

source (below set point) This is accomplished with Powers exclusive automatic

balancing valve (ABV), featuring paraffin-based, advanced actuation technology

TO ENSURE THE ACCURATE AND RELIABLE

OPERATION OF THIS PRODUCT, IT IS ESSENTIAL TO:

• Properly size each valve based on the individual

application

• Properly design the recirculation system to minimize

pressure and temperature variations

• Conduct an annual maintenance program to ensure

proper operation of all critical components

THIS VALVE MUST BE USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH

TEMPERATURE ACTUATED POINT-OF-USE DEVICES

THAT COMPLY WITH ASSE 1016, 1069, OR 1070.

FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH PROPER INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS COULD CONTRIBUTE TO VALVE

FAILURE, RESULTING IN IN JURY OR DEATH.

WARNING

!

*The wetted surface of this product contacted by consumable water contains less than 0.25% of lead by weight.

Please read and retain these instructions.

WARNING

!

Need for Periodic Inspection: Periodic inspection by a licensed contractor is

recommended Corrosive water conditions, temperatures over 200°F, unauthor-

ized adjustments or repair could render the valve ineffective for service intend-

ed Regular checking and cleaning of thermostat assembly helps to assure

maximum life and proper product function Frequency of cleaning depends

upon local water conditions
