Function

The QuickSetter+™ static balancing valve contains a built-in flow

meter and sight gauge, negating the need for differential pressure

gauges and reference charts. Circuit balancing is fast, easy and

accurate. Constructed of DZR low-lead brass, QuickSetter+™ is

ideally suited for use in plumbing applications such as hot water

recirculation systems. The built-in check valve protects against

circuit thermo-siphoning. The outlet temperature gauge (optional)

verifies the fluid temperature in the circuit. The flow meter sight

gauge is dry (not exposed to the fluid) thus eliminating the possibility

of gauge clouding/scaling over time. The QuickSetter+™ can also

be used in heating systems.

Installation 132 series 7 5 6 4 2 3 The balancing valves, with built-in flow meter, must be installed by qualified technical personnel in accordance with the instructions given in this manual and with current regulations. Clean the pipes of any debris, rust, welding slag and any other contaminants. 7 5 6 4 As in all piping circuits it is important to pay attention to the cleanliness of the entire system. For optimal operation, any air in the water must be removed.
PAGE 5
Flow rate adjustment The flow rate is adjusted by carrying out the following operations: A. With the aid of the indicator (1), mark the reference flow rate on which the valve is to be set. B. Use the ring (2) to slowly open the flow meter bypass valve that shuts off the flow of medium in the flow meter (3) under normal operating conditions. C.
PAGE 6
D. After completing the balancing, release the ring (2) of the flow meter bypass valve, which will automatically go back into the closed position. 2 E. On completing the adjustment, the indicator (1) can be used to keep the setting in memory, in case checks need to be made over time. 1 F. A replacement flow meter bypass valve stem with operating ring is available in the event it is damaged and inoperable. Order code F19346. See page 6 for replacement instructions.

Application: Balanced recirculating systems An example recirculation system is shown below: Multiple hot and cold water risers are supplied from common hot and cold water mains. The number and type of fixtures served by each set of risers will often be different. A recirculation riser accompanies each set of hot and cold risers. A single circulator provides recirculation flow through the entire system. This type of piping network is similar to a 2-pipe direct return distribution system for hydronic heating.
