Shock waves are caused by fast acting valves and can

be controlled by using a shock arrestor. Use one unit

for each hot and cold water line.
For new or existing water lines with pressures up to

150psi (10.3 bar) and temperature ranges of 33°F to

180°F (0.5°C to 82°C). Systems which exceed 60psi

shall be installed with a pressure reducing valve up-

stream of the unit.
Select a location as close to the source of shock (i.e.

dishwasher, icemaker, toilet or faucet) as possible. Al-

low sufficient clearance for installation.
For your safety these units are pre-charged at the fac-

tory and are not rechargeable or repairable.
Although they function in any orientation, Figure 1, 2 &

3 show the proper installation where the shock would

be absorbed most effectively.
