4. පිහිටුවීම සහ ස්ථාපනය

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your diverter valve. This valve is designed for 1-1/2-inch plumbing connections.

4.1 පූර්ව-ස්ථාපන පිරික්සුම් ලැයිස්තුව:

• Verify that the valve material (PVC or CPVC) is compatible with your existing plumbing and the chemicals used in your system.
• Ensure you have all necessary tools and materials, including PVC/CPVC cement, primer, measuring tape, and pipe cutters.
• Confirm that the installation location allows for easy access to the valve handle for operation and future maintenance.

4.2 ස්ථාපන පියවර:

1. Plan Plumbing Layout: Determine the desired flow path for diverting, mixing, or shut-off applications. The valve can be plumbed with the inlet at any port.
2. පයිප්ප සකස් කරන්න: Cut the existing or new pipes to the correct length, ensuring clean, straight cuts. Deburr the edges of the pipes.
3. වියළි යෝග්‍යතාවය: Temporarily fit the valve and pipes together without cement to ensure proper alignment and fit. Mark the pipes and valve for correct orientation.
4. Apply Primer and Cement: Apply PVC/CPVC primer to both the outside of the pipe and the inside of the valve port. Follow immediately with a generous, even coat of PVC/CPVC cement to both surfaces.
5. Join Connections: Quickly insert the pipe into the valve port with a quarter-turn twist until it bottoms out. Hold firmly for 30 seconds to allow the cement to set.
6. Repeat for all Ports: Connect all necessary pipes to the valve ports using the same priming and cementing procedure.
7. සුව කිරීමේ කාලය: Allow adequate cure time for the cement as recommended by the cement manufacturer before pressurizing the system.
8. Adjust Stop Positions (Optional): The valve features field-adjustable stop positions. If specific flow limits are required, consult the markings on the valve top and adjust the internal stops as needed using a screwdriver.

සටහන: For detailed instructions on solvent welding, refer to the specific PVC/CPVC cement manufacturer's guidelines.

5. මෙහෙයුම් උපදෙස්

The Pentair 263038 diverter valve allows for easy control of water flow. The fiberglass-reinforced handle is used to select the desired flow path.

5.1 Understanding Valve Positions:

The top of the valve features markings and a rotating handle. The handle's position indicates the active flow path. Common positions include:

• Diverting: Directs water from one inlet to one of two outlets, or from two inlets to one outlet.
• වසා දැමීම: Completely stops flow through the valve. This is typically indicated by an "OFF" marking on the valve body.
• මිශ්ර කිරීම: Combines flow from two inlets into a single outlet.

Rotate the handle to align with the desired port or function indicated on the valve body. The field-adjustable stops can be set to limit the handle's rotation to specific positions if needed.

5.2 සාමාන්ය මෙහෙයුම:

1. Ensure the system is not under excessive pressure before adjusting the valve, especially if making significant changes to flow.
2. Grasp the fiberglass-reinforced handle firmly.
3. Rotate the handle to the desired position. The handle should move smoothly.
4. Verify the flow change in your system.

සටහන: If the handle feels stiff, do not force it. Refer to the Maintenance section for lubrication or inspection.

6. නඩත්තු කිරීම

The Pentair 263038 diverter valve is designed for minimal maintenance due to its maintenance-free Teflon coated diverter seal. However, periodic inspection and occasional servicing can extend its lifespan.

6.1 Routine Inspection:

• Periodically check for any signs of leaks around the valve body or connections.
• Inspect the handle for any damage or excessive wear.
• Ensure the handle rotates smoothly between positions.

6.2 Servicing (If Required):

While the Teflon seal is maintenance-free, if the valve becomes stiff to operate or develops a leak from the stem, it may be serviceable. The valve can typically be disassembled by removing the screws on the top cover. This allows access to the diverter and seals for cleaning or replacement if necessary. Use only manufacturer-approved lubricants for O-rings and seals if reassembly is performed.

අවවාදය: Disassemble the valve only if you are comfortable with plumbing repairs. Ensure the system is depressurized and drained before attempting any servicing.
