Installation Guidelines
• Prior to installation, flush line to remove debris.
• Install valve horizontally “in line” (cover facing UP), so flow arrow matches flow through the line. Avoid
installing valves 6” and larger vertically. Consult factory prior to ordering if installation is other than
described.
• Install inlet and outlet isolation valves. NOTE: When using butterfly valves, insure disc does not contact
control valve. Damage or improper valve seating may occur.
• Provide adequate clearance for valve servicing and maintenance.
• Install pressure gauges to monitor valve inlet and outlet pressure.
• Connect Solenoid and Limit Switch to appropriate pump control panel locations and power source in
compliance with local electrical codes.
