2. Информация по технике безопасности

• Always shut off the main water supply before beginning any installation or maintenance.
• Используйте соответствующие средства индивидуальной защиты (СИЗ), такие как защитные очки и перчатки.
• Убедитесь, что все соединения должным образом герметизированы, чтобы предотвратить протечки.
• Consult local plumbing codes and regulations for proper installation procedures.
• Если вы не уверены в какой-либо части установки, проконсультируйтесь с квалифицированным сантехником.

3. Содержимое упаковки

Перед началом установки убедитесь, что все компоненты присутствуют:

• 1x Apollo 3/4" Bronze Double Union Threaded Water Pressure Regulator

4. Установка

This regulator features a double union PEX-A (cold expansion) barb design for simplified installation in PEX-A piping systems. Ensure the regulator is installed in the correct flow direction, indicated by an arrow on the body.

1. Подготовьте место установки: Turn off the main water supply. Drain the water lines to relieve pressure. Select a suitable location for the regulator, typically after the main shut-off valve and before any branch lines.
2. Cut and Prepare PEX-A Piping: Cut the PEX-A pipe to the required length, ensuring clean, square cuts. Prepare the pipe ends for cold expansion connections according to PEX-A system manufacturer guidelines.
3. Connect the Regulator:
   • Apply appropriate thread sealant (e.g., Teflon tape or pipe dope) to the male threads of the PEX-A fittings.
   • Thread the PEX-A fittings onto the double union ends of the regulator. Ensure the flow arrow on the regulator body points in the direction of water flow into the building.
   • Tighten the union nuts securely, but do not overtighten.
   • Perform cold expansion connections on the PEX-A pipe ends to the fittings according to PEX-A system manufacturer instructions.
4. Установите манометр: The pressure gauge is typically pre-installed. Ensure it is securely threaded into the designated port on the regulator body.
5. Restore Water Supply and Check for Leaks: Slowly turn on the main water supply. Carefully inspect all connections for any signs of leaks. Tighten connections as necessary.

5. Инструкция по эксплуатации

The regulator is factory-set at 50 psi and is adjustable from 15 psi to 75 psi. No special tools are required for adjustment.

1. Проверьте текущее давление: Observe the reading on the integrated pressure gauge. The gauge is color-coded to indicate pressure ranges (e.g., Low, Optimal, Excessive).
2. Регулировка давления:
   • К увеличивать pressure: Turn the yellow adjustment handle по часовой стрелке.
   • К снижаться pressure: Turn the yellow adjustment handle против часовой стрелки.
   • Make small adjustments and allow the system pressure to stabilize before re-checking the gauge.
3. Подтвердите настройку: Once the desired pressure is achieved (typically between 50-60 psi for most residential applications), confirm the reading on the gauge.

6. Техническое обслуживание

The Apollo Water Pressure Regulator is designed for minimal maintenance. Regular checks can help ensure optimal performance.

• Periodic Pressure Check: Periodically check the pressure gauge to ensure the system pressure remains at the desired setting. Fluctuations may indicate a need for adjustment or inspection.
• Проверка утечек: Annually inspect the regulator and connections for any signs of leaks or corrosion.
• Уборка: Очистите внешнюю поверхность регулятора с помощью средства Adamp Протирайте тканью по мере необходимости. Не используйте агрессивные химикаты.
• Sediment Filter (Optional): If your water supply contains significant sediment, consider installing a sediment filter upstream of the pressure regulator to prevent internal clogging.
