Sweat Solder Adaptor Installation Instructions

Important:

• All plumbing is to be installed according to state and local codes and regulations.
• Water supply lines need to allow proper water flow for each fixture.
• Flush all lines of any debris before making connections.
• Do not use pipe sealant or plumbing grease on any fitting other then the control stop inlet.

The Aquaflush valve is designed to operate under various water pressures with a recommended range between 10 and 100 psi (69 to 689 kPa). Each Zurn valve is tested for proper performance at the factory before being shipped. Consult the product pages of the catalog for available flow options.
Most low consumption fixtures (1.28 and 1.6 gallon) require a minimum of 25 psi running pressure through the valve to obtain proper evacuation. Please be sure to consult fixture manufacturer on minimum running water supply requirements for proper evacuation.
When installing your quality Zurn valve it is rec om mend ed that to protect the polished finish you do not use a toothed wrench.
This will cause gouges and scratches on your valve.

STEP NO. 1
Measure distance from finished wall to center line of fixture spud; cut water supply pipe 1-1/4” shorter than this mea sure ment. Chamfer O.D. and I.D.

STEP NO. 2
Slide threaded adapter onto supply pipe until shoulder stops on end of pipe. Then sweat-solder the adapter to water supply pipe.

STEP NO. 3
Measure from finished wall to first thread of adapter for length of chrome tube. Cut chrome tube this length ‘x’.

STEP NO. 4
Slide wall escutcheon over chrome tube and slide both chrome tube and wall escutcheon over supply pipe pushing the wall escutcheon all the way to the wall.

STEP NO. 5
Screw control stop onto water supply water adaptor.

AquaVantage® Installation Instructions

1. Install stop valve assembly using proper size supply escutcheon and sweat solder adapter kit if applicable (see 1). Thread sealing compounds should be used on male NPT threads only.
   

2. Prior to inserting the flush valve tailpiece into stop valve, be certain that the O-ring seal is located in O-ring seal groove at the end of the tailpiece and the locking nut and locking snap ring are located as shown below (see 2). Care should be taken not to damage the O-ring when inserting the tailpiece into the stop valve. If lubrication is needed, wetting the O-ring with water will be sufficient.
   

3. Insert the flush valve tailpiece into the stop valve and hand tighten the lock nut to the stop valve. Plumb the entire unit (see 3).
   

4. Determine the length of vacuum breaker tube required to join the flush valve and fixture spud. Cut the vacuum breaker tube, if re quired, to this length (see 4a). Assemble the vacuum breaker tube assembly and spud nut assembly to the flush valve and fixture spud (see 4b).
   

5. Hand tighten spud nut and vacuum breaker tube nut to fixture and flush valve. Adjust the valve assembly for plumb. Tighten fixture spud nut, vacuum breaker tube nut and lock nut with a wrench.
   

6. When all flush valves are connected to the fixtures and water pressure is available, it is recommended that the supply piping be flushed to remove dirt, pipe chips, etc. from system. Before the water is turned on, be sure all stop valves to the flush valves are closed off tight. The stop valves can be opened and closed by using the adjusting screw located at the center of the stop valve cap, behind the stop snap cap screw cover if already installed (see 6a). Stop valve adjustments can only be made by using the adjusting screw. It is not neces sary to remove the stop valve cap when making adjustments. If for any reason it becomes necessary to remove the stop valve cap, be certain the water is shut off at the main supply valve.
   Use the following procedure to flush out the supply piping:
   A. Remove the main valve body cover.
   B. Remove the working parts from the flush valve (shown in 6b).
   C. Replace the main valve body cover and plastic cover without reinstalling the working parts.
   D. Open the stop valve by using the stop adjusting screw, and flush out all debris from pipe and connections.
   E. Shut stop, open cover, replace the working parts, replace and tighten cover.
   This procedure should also be followed when the system has been drained for some time, as occurs in athletic fields, recreation parks, etc.
   

7. The Aquaflush flush valves are preset for fixture volume as marked on the valve cartons. The valve does not require regulation for variation in water pressure within its operating range. To set the flush valve for proper operation, gradually adjust the stop valve open, using the adjusting screw, while actuating the valve until the rate of water flow into the fixture is not excessive, yet is sufficient enough to adequately evacuate the waste. The final setting for urinals should be such that the fixture will not overflow when the valve is actuated in succession. The stop snap cap screw cover should be secured after final adjustments have been made.

AquaVantage® Trouble Shooting Guide

2.) Open supply valve.
 Insufficient volume of water to adequately siphon fixture.| “1.) Stop valve is not open enough.
2.) Urinal trip mechanism installed in wrong kit, urinal
for closet.
3.) Insufficient volume or pressure at supply.| 1.) Open stop valve for desired volume of water.
2.) Replace urinal part with proper closet valve part.
3.) If gauges are not available to measure supply pressure or volume of water at the valve, completely remove the working parts and open the stop valve to allow water to pass through the empty valve. If the supply is adequate to siphon the fixture, the guide ring (#16) may be removed from the guide assembly to
provide additional flow (see page 5). Should this prove unsatisfactory, steps should be taken to increase the pressure and/or supply.
 Flush valve shuts off too
quickly.| 1.) Damaged or punctured diaphragm.
2.) Enlarged by-pass orifice.  “| 1.) Install new P6000-EUR or P6000-ECR replacement
kit to remedy the problem. (#12 thru #17)
2.) Install new P6000-EUR or P6000-ECR replacement
kit to remedy the problem. (#12 thru #17)  “
 Valve is short flushing.| 1.) Diaphragm kit is not matched to the fixture.
2.) Urinal trip mechanism (black #12) is in the closet
flush valve.| “1.) Install the proper P6000-EUR or P6000-ECR
replacement kit to remedy the problem. (#12 thru #17)
2.) Install closet trip mechanism (white #12).
 Valve is flushing too long
or not shutting off.| 1.) Trip mechanism not seating properly due to foreign
material between trip mechanism and retainer disc.
2.) By-pass orifice is plugged or partially plugged.
3.) Line pressure is not adequate to force trip
mechanism to seal.
4.) Cracked cover. (#11)| 1.) Disassemble parts and rinse thoroughly.
2.) Examine by-pass orifice and clean if necessary
being certain not to enlarge orifice opening.
3.) Pressure is inadequate or has dropped below minimum operating range. Steps should be taken to increase the line pressure.
4.) Replace cover with new one.
 Water splashes out of
fixture.| 1.) Supply volume is more than is necessary.
2.) Lime accumulation on vortex or spreader holes of
fixture.| 1.) Adjust downward on control stop.
2.) Remove the lime build up.
 Flush is not considered quiet.| 1.) Control stop may not be adjusted for quiet operation.
2.) Fixture may be contributing to noise.
3.) Piping system may be source of noise.| 1.) Adjust the control stop for quiet operation keeping in
mind the fixture evacuation requirements.
2.) Check noise created by fixture by placing a cover over the bowl opening to separate valve noise from bowl noise. If it is deter-mined the fixture is too noisy consult with fixture manufacturer.
3.) High pressure in the system can sometimes be controlled by the stop valve. Other sources of noise may be the absence of air chambers and shock arrestors, loose pipes, improper size pipes, etc. In these cases the building engineer should be consulted.
 Handle assembly leaking.| 1.) Handle assembly is not tight.| 1.) Tighten handle assembly.
Water drips from chrome
cap.| 1.) P6000-L inside plastic cap is cracked.| 1.) Replace P6000-L plastic cap.

Care of Chrome Plated Surfaces
The suggested cleaning of chrome plated surfaces is simply to clean them with mild soap and water, then dry. Commercial cleaning compounds are never recommended.

Seasonal Use
Valves used in installations subject to shut down because of cold and freezing conditions should be maintained in the following manner. After the main supply has been shut off and the water drained from the system, remove the stop valve cap and stop valve internals to allow the water to drain from the flush valve itself.
