XP Series LFMM430 Hi/Lo's are fully assem-

bled factory tested systems, designed to provide safe water through-

out commercial and institutional facilities. HydroGuard

XP Series

LFMM430 Hi/Lo systems consist of Series LFLM490 and Series

LFMM430 thermostatic valves which utilize paraffin-based actuation

technology to sense and adjust outlet temperature. Each system

also includes a PRV, ball valves, pressure/temperature gauges and

Powers' triple-duty checkstops. Optional equipment includes cabinets.

Two-valve supply fixtures feature a low capacity valve that works

in parallel with a high capacity valve. During low demand, the

low capacity valve handles the load requirements. As the load

demand is increased, the pressure reducing valve, which is set at

a certain pressure differential, will open and allow flow through the

high capacity valve to assist the low capacity valve in meeting the

increased load requirements.

Maximum Operating Pressure .................. 125psi (861 kPa)

Maximum Hot Water Temperature ........... 200°F (93°C)

Minimum Hot Water Supply Temp*............. 5°F (3°C) Above Set-Point

Hot Water Inlet Temperature Range ........ 120 -180°F (49 - 82°C)

Cold Water Inlet Temperature Range ....... 40 - 80°F (4 - 27°C)

Minimum Flow**............................................ 0.5 gpm (1.89 lpm)

Temp. Adjustment Range *** ..................... 90 - 160°F (32 - 71°C)

Listing/Compliance (Valve Only) ................ ASSE 1017, CSA B125

* With Equal Pressure
** Minimum flow when HiLo is installed at or near hot water source recirculating
tempered water with a properly sized continuously operating recirculating pump.
*** Note: Low limit cannot be less than the cold water temperature. For best
operation, hot water should be at least 5°F (3°C) above desired set point.

WARNING

!

Read this Manual BEFORE using this equipment.
Failure to read and follow all safety and use infor-

mation can result in death, serious personal injury,

property damage, or damage to the equipment.
Keep this Manual for future reference.

You are required to consult the local building and plumbing

codes prior to installation. If the information in this manual is

not consistent with local building or plumbing codes, the local

codes should be followed. Inquire with governing authorities for

additional local requirements.

WARNING

!

Need for Periodic Inspection and Yearly Maintenance:

Periodic inspection and yearly maintenance by a licensed con-

tractor is required. Corrosive water conditions and/or unauthor-

ized adjustments or repair could render the valve ineffective for

service intended. Regular checking and cleaning of the valve’s

internal components and check stops helps assure maximum

life and proper product function. Frequency of cleaning and

inspection depends upon local water conditions.

FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH PROPER INSTALLATION AND

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS COULD CONTRIBUTE TO THE

VALVE FAILURE.
This Hot Water Master Tempering Valves cannot be used for

tempering water temperature at fixtures. Severe bodily injury

(i.e., scalding or chilling) and/or death may result depending

upon system water pressure changes and/or supply water

temperature changes. ASSE standard 1016, 1069 or 1070 listed

devices should be used at fixtures to prevent possible injury.
These Hot Water Tempering Valves are designed to be

installed at or near the boiler or water heater. They are not

designed to compensate for system pressure fluctuations and

should not be used where ASSE standard 1016, 1069 or 1070

devices are required. These valves should never be used to

provide “anti-scald” or “anti-chill” service.
The components of the system must be of materials with a

construction capable of withstanding the high limit output tem-

peratures of the water heating source.
