Alca PLAST A15 Side Inlet Filling Valve Instructions
TECHNICAL PARAMETERS:
- working Pressures: 0,05 – 1 MPa
- working Temperatures: 5 – 40°C
DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTION:
The valve is used for the automatic filling of a WC tank with water. It works on a hydraulic principle of differences between surfaces. When the Lever N082 is raised by Float N084, found over the Regulating Thread N085, the nozzle on enclosure N081 is closed, this increasing the water pressure on the membrane N009. This pressure pushes the membrane into the recess of valve and closes the outlet. When the water level falls in the WC tank, the float falls down the regulating thread, and the lever opens the nozzle. As the pressure above the membrane lowers, the valve opens and water begins filling the tank.
ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENT:
If possible, the valve should be installed in a horizontal position, with the outlet pipe in a perpendicular position, attached to the cistern wall by nut N016 (N023). The water level in the cistern is adjusted by the height of float N084, aided by regulating thread N085. Insert plastic Filter N125 in the inlet part of valve body, to catch water impurities. For easy removal, the filter is attached with a stem. The assembly thread of valve G1/2″ (G3/8″) is adjusted for connecting to common water pipes.
NOTICE FOR USERS:
After you have installed the valve, you may notice a small vibration.Do not be
alarmed, this is normal and will disappear gradually once the air is bled
through the valve. Poor performance of the valve can occur due to clogging of
the Filter N125, in which case you should remove and clean it. This is why we
do not recommend, especially in domestic plumbing, water supplies with small
impurities. Calcium stones from blocked parts can easily be removed by soaking
the Filter in a 5% Common Vinegar solution for 1÷1,5 hours.
Regular maintenance is recommended to ensure the valve remains in good working
order,as shown in the drawings. Only original manufacturers parts should be
used during repair or maintenance, and these are available from your local
retailer. In the event of any problems, please contact a qualified
professional.
