3. 안전 정보

• 전문 설치 권장: This valve should be installed by a qualified licensed plumber to ensure proper function and compliance with local codes.
• 급수 차단: 설치 또는 유지 보수 작업을 하기 전에 항상 메인 급수 밸브를 잠그십시오.
• 압력 완화: Open a downstream faucet to relieve pressure in the system before disassembling the valve.
• Hot Water Warning: Be aware that hot water can cause burns. Exercise caution when working with hot water lines.
• 너무 조이지 마십시오: Over-tightening connections can damage the valve and seals, leading to leaks.

4. 설치

Follow these steps for proper installation of the Zurn Wilkins 34-NR3XLDU Pressure Reducing Valve. Refer to local plumbing codes for specific requirements.

1. 설치 영역 준비:
   • Turn off the main water supply to the building.
   • Open a downstream faucet to relieve pressure and drain water from the lines.
   • Identify the location for the new pressure reducing valve. Ensure there is sufficient space for installation and future maintenance.
2. Flush Supply Line:
   • Before installing the valve, flush the supply line to remove any loose dirt, scale, or debris that could damage the valve's internal components.
3. Install Valve In-Line:
   • The valve body has an arrow indicating the direction of water flow. Install the valve so the arrow points in the direction of water flow towards the building.
   • The valve can be installed in any orientation (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal).
   • Use appropriate tools to connect the valve to your plumbing system. Ensure all connections are secure but do not over-tighten. The double union FNPT connections facilitate easy installation and removal.
4. 물 공급 복구:
   • 메인 급수 밸브를 천천히 열고 연결 부위에 누수가 있는지 확인하십시오.
   • Open downstream faucets to purge air from the system.

5. Setup: Adjusting Pressure

The Zurn Wilkins 34-NR3XLDU valve is factory set to approximately 50 PSI. You can adjust the outlet pressure within a range of 15-75 PSI.

1. Attach Pressure Gauge: Connect a reliable pressure gauge to a downstream hose bib or test port to monitor the outlet pressure.
2. 잠금 너트를 풀어주세요: Locate the adjustment screw on top of the valve. Loosen the locknut securing the adjustment screw.
3. 압력 조절:
   • 에게 증가하다 outlet pressure, turn the adjustment screw clockwise (into the bell housing).
   • 에게 감소하다 outlet pressure, turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise (out of the bell housing).
4. 압력 확인: After each adjustment, open a downstream faucet briefly to verify the correct pressure setting on your gauge.
5. 잠금 너트를 조이세요: Once the desired pressure is achieved, tighten the locknut to secure the adjustment screw.

6. 사용 설명서

Once installed and adjusted, the Zurn Wilkins 34-NR3XLDU valve operates automatically to maintain a consistent downstream pressure, protecting your plumbing system. No further user interaction is typically required during normal operation.

• The valve continuously monitors and adjusts the water pressure entering your home.
• It is designed to reduce water usage and extend the life of pipes, faucets, and appliances by preventing high-pressure damage.

7. 유지관리

정기적인 유지보수는 감압 밸브의 지속적인 효율성과 신뢰성을 보장합니다.

• 연례 검사: It is recommended that the valve be inspected annually by a qualified licensed plumber to verify correct pressure setting and overall condition.
• Strainer Screen Cleaning: The integral stainless steel strainer screen may require periodic cleaning, especially in areas with high sediment in the water supply. To clean:
  1. 주요 물 공급을 차단하세요.
  2. Relieve downstream pressure.
  3. Carefully disassemble the threaded bell to access the strainer screen.
  4. Clean the screen of any accumulated debris.
  5. Reassemble, ensuring all seals are properly seated and connections are secure.
• 카트리지 교체: The cartridge-loaded design allows for easy replacement of internal components if wear or damage occurs. Consult a qualified plumber for cartridge replacement.

8. 문제 해결

If you experience issues with your pressure reducing valve, consider the following common problems and solutions:

• High Downstream Pressure:
  • 열팽창: If pressure rises overnight or when hot water is used, it may be due to thermal expansion in the hot water heater. This is a normal phenomenon and typically requires an expansion tank. The pressure reducing valve is not designed to prevent thermal expansion.
  • 부적절한 조정: Re-check the pressure adjustment screw setting using a pressure gauge (refer to Section 5).
  • Debris in Valve: The valve may be fouled by debris, preventing it from closing completely. Clean the strainer screen and inspect the cartridge (refer to Section 7).
  • 마모된 구성품: Internal components may be worn. A repair kit or replacement cartridge may be needed.
• Low Downstream Pressure/Flow:
  • 부적절한 조정: The valve may be set too low. Adjust the pressure setting (refer to Section 5).
  • Clogged Strainer: The integral strainer screen may be clogged with debris, restricting water flow. Clean the strainer screen (refer to Section 7).
  • Inlet Pressure Too Low: Ensure the incoming main water supply pressure is adequate.
• 누출:
  • 느슨한 연결: Check all connections for tightness. Do not over-tighten.
  • 손상된 씰: Gaskets or O-rings may be damaged or improperly seated. Inspect and replace if necessary.

If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, contact a qualified licensed plumber or Zurn customer support.
