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. پریشر گیج منسلک کریں: Connect a reliable pressure gauge to a downstream hose bib or test port to monitor the outlet pressure.
2. Loosen Locknut: Locate the adjustment screw on top of the valve. Loosen the locknut securing the adjustment screw.
3. دباؤ کو ایڈجسٹ کریں:
   • کو اضافہ outlet pressure, turn the adjustment screw clockwise (into the bell housing).
   • کو کمی outlet pressure, turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise (out of the bell housing).
4. Verify Pressure: After each adjustment, open a downstream faucet briefly to verify the correct pressure setting on your gauge.
5. Tighten Locknut: Once the desired pressure is achieved, tighten the locknut to secure the adjustment screw.

8 خرابیوں کا سراغ لگانا

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

• High Downstream Pressure:
  • تھرمل توسیع: 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.
  • Improper Adjustment: Re-check the pressure adjustment screw setting using a pressure gauge (refer to Section 5).
  • والو میں ملبہ: The valve may be fouled by debris, preventing it from closing completely. Clean the strainer screen and inspect the cartridge (refer to Section 7).
  • پہننے والے اجزاء: Internal components may be worn. A repair kit or replacement cartridge may be needed.
• Low Downstream Pressure/Flow:
  • Improper Adjustment: 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.
• لیکس:
  • ڈھیلے کنکشن: Check all connections for tightness. Do not over-tighten.
  • Damaged Seals: Gaskets or O-rings may be damaged or improperly seated. Inspect and replace if necessary.
