Installation & Assembly

5.
Prior to installing the handle on the thermostatic valve
stem, make sure the high temperature limit over-ride
button is aligned with the gun sight on the limit stop
(see illustration). Note the gun sight on the limit stop
indicates factory calibration for high temperature limit
at 100 ºF (38 ºC).

Install the screw in the thermostatic handle and tighten
by hex wrench (supplied), then attach the handle cap.

ADJUST TEMPERATURE SETTING
• Hot and cold water pressure = 45 psi ( 3 bar) • Hot water temperature = 149˚ F or 65˚C • Cold water temperature = 59˚ F or 15˚C
The valve is calibrated at the factory to deliver water at approximately 100˚F (38˚C) when the handle is positioned at the “High
Temp Override Position” (Shown in Figure 5). This temperature roughly corresponds to the 100˚F graduation line found on the
temperature dial of the valve trim and the reference mark found on the cartridge spline of this valve. Note the listed water
temperature settings are based upon our factory conditions as follows
If another range of temperatures is desired or the actual water supply conditions differ significantly, you will need to recalibrate the
valve settings according to the re-calibration procedure shown in 7.2–A shown below. If a maximum hot water temperature is
required, you also may need to re-calibrate the valve to meet your required maximum temperature output. See Setting a
Maximum Output Temperature in section 7.2 - B.
CAUTION: RISK OF SCALDING HAZARD
The valve has been calibrated at the factory to deliver water at approximately 100˚F (38˚C) at the High Temperature Override
Position. This temperature corresponds to the line marked on the valve cartridge stem. Based on the temperature and pressure
inputs used at our factory to calibrate the valve, the maximum outlet temperature is approximately 120˚F (49˚C). For calibration,
Danze assumes cold water supply to be 59˚F (15˚C) +/- 5˚F, and hot water temperature supply to be 149˚F (65˚C) +/- 5˚F. Both
hot and cold water pressure are 45psi. Any significant variation in the calibration, or any variation in the water supply
temperatures (greater than 5˚F or 3˚C) from those used at the factory during the calibration procedure, can result in water
temperatures that could present scalding dangers. It is important to check the water temperature with the temperature stem rotated
to the full counterclockwise (open) position to determine the maximum temperature of the water that will be delivered. The
responsibility for the proper installation and any recalibration of this valve lies with the installer.
