Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How to install Watts 115-3 FL pressure reducing valve?
A.
- Measure water pressure with a gauge.
- Gather tools such as valves, gauges, fittings, tape, soldering supplies, pliers, wrench, cutter and torch.
- Use threaded fittings to attach gauges on each side of the valve for monitoring.
- Mark and cut the water pipe where the valve will be installed using a tubing cutter.
- Apply flux and solder the valve to the pipe after removing gauges and O-rings.
- Reinstall pressure gauges after cooling, reattach gauges and O-rings.
Q. What safety precautions should I take when using this pressure-reducing valve?
A.
- Ensure upright valve installation in equipment or pipes. Horizontal placement is acceptable for liquid pipes prone to thermal expansion.
- Place the valve in easily accessible spots for maintenance. Ensure sufficient workspace around it.
- Prevent resistance at the valve outlet to avoid pressure buildup. Install it as close as possible to protected equipment or pipes.
- Prioritise testing and checking tightness before installation. Regular maintenance during use ensures proper functioning.
Q. How do I select the right pressure reducing control valve for my application?
A. Selecting the right pressure reducing control valve involves considering factors such as the fluid type, flow rate, operating pressure range, temperature, pipe size and system requirements.
