Valve
GENERAL
The UMV500-LF/U UMV Series Universal Under Sink Thermostatic Mixing Valve is
intended for use in under counter and under sink applications. The UMV500
Universal Model is designed to be used as a three port design (touchless sink)
or a four port design (two handle sink) with the addition of the 4 port
adaptor (supplied with UMV500-LF/U).
The UMV500-LF/U is used to prevent accidental scalding. The outlet water
temperature must be properly adjusted by the installer using a thermometer to
measure the outlet temperature at the faucet. A maximum outlet temperature of
110° F (43° C) is recommended.
FEATURES
- Universal design allows flexibility in adapting to three port or four port applications.
- Shipped with four port adapter.
- Shipped with standoffs for easy mounting.
- Integral check valves in hot and cold inlets.
- Lockable hand wheel for tamper resistant temperature setting.
- Lead Free (0.25% max. weighted average lead content)

INSTALLATION AND TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
Figure below shows a typical installation for the under sink mixing valve.
Typical Installation
The handwheel of the under sink mixing valve can be used as a tool to adjust the temperature setting as follows.
-
The valve must be adjusted when installed. Turn on the hot and cold supply, then open the hot faucet served by the valve. Let the water run for several minutes to ensure maximum hot inlet temperature is reached.
-
Remove the cap by pulling it off.
Remove the Handwheel -
Use the cap upside down to adjust the outlet temperature with a thermometer under the faucet. Turn the hand wheel clockwise for cooler temperatures and counterclockwise for warmer temperatures.
- Turn clockwise to decrease the temperature down to 80°F;
- Turn counter-clockwise to increase the temperature up to 120°F.
-
Replace the cap after adjustment to lock the setting.

MAINTENANCE
Test the valve annually to make sure that the internal parts operate properly.
- Turn on the hot faucet and run water for a few minutes, until the hot inlet temperature is at its maximum.
- Remove the cap by pulling it off.
- Use the cap upside down to adjust the outlet temperature with a thermometer under the faucet. Turn the hand wheel one-half turn clockwise for cooler temperatures and counterclockwise for warmer temperatures.
- Check the outlet water temperature with a thermometer to make sure that the temperature changed and the hand wheel turned without binding.
- When the correct outlet temperature has been reached, replace the cap to lock the setting.
