Salus SBMV32 (3 port 22mm) Manual.qxd:Layout 1 9/1/11 10:56 Page 4 INTRODUCTION A motorised valve is used to control the flow of water in a central heating system. The motorised valve can be used for control of both heating and hot water, and it works by controlling the flow of water from the heating boiler to other parts of the system. There are two types of motorised valve used in domestic heating systems: two port (also called zone valves), and three port (also called mid position valves).

Before Installation This valve must only be installed in compatible systems. Before installing, please check that: • The system pipework has been flushed out to remove any residue. • There is enough clearance around the valve to allow removal and refitting of the actuator.
Salus SBMV32 (3 port 22mm) Manual.qxd:Layout 1 9/1/11 10:56 Page 6 OPERATION Three way valves This type of three way motorised valve has port A normally closed with no power to the valve. In this state, water can flow from port AB to port B. When the electrical supply is activated, the actuator motor overcomes the force of the internal spring and closes port B. This allows water to flow from port AB to port A. The valve is kept in this position until the electrical supply is interrupted.
Salus SBMV32 (3 port 22mm) Manual.qxd:Layout 1 9/1/11 10:56 Page 7 MANUAL LEVER There is a lever on the side of the actuator cover: this lever allows manual operation of the valve, e.g. for refilling and draining of the system or if the actuator fails. For two way valves, the lever allows the valve to be kept open; with three way valves the lever allows both ports A and B to be open at the same time. To manually operate the valve, gently push the lever forward and latch it in the MAN position.
Salus SBMV32 (3 port 22mm) Manual.qxd:Layout 1 9/1/11 10:56 Page 8 MAINTENANCE The Motorised Valve requires no special maintenance. Periodically, the outer casing can be wiped clean using a dry cloth (please DO NOT use solvents, polishes, detergents or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the thermostat). There are no user serviceable parts within the unit; any servicing or repairs should only be carried out by Salus Controls or their appointed agents.
