The QuickSetter
+
™
manual balancing valve contains
a built-in fl ow meter and sight gauge, eliminating 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)
verifi es the fl uid temperature in the circuit. The fl ow
meter sight gauge is dry (not exposed to the fl uid)
thus eliminating the possibility of gauge clouding or
scaling over time.

Hot water recirculation systems are designed to minimize wait time for hot water to arrive when a fi xture is opened. Systems left unbalanced or improperly
balanced result in wasted water down the drain, a costly and environmentally unfriendly situation - not to mention the undesired annoyance placed on
building occupants. The QuickSetter+
™
takes the guess work and labor out of balancing. With the valve's exclusively designed venturi mechanism, the
installer simply pulls the fl ow indicator by-pass pin, adjusts the fl ow to the desired fl ow rate while viewing the built-in sight gauge, and releases the pin. Easy,
accurate balancing in seconds. No instruments or reference graphs are needed.

The balancing valve is a hydraulic
device that controls fl ow rate. The
control mechanism is a ball valve (1),
operated by a control stem (2). The
fl ow rate is manually and properly set
by use of the convenient built-in fl ow
meter (3) housed in a bypass circuit
on the valve body. This circuit is
automatically shut off during normal
operation. The fl ow rate is indicated
by a metal ball (4) sliding inside
a transparent channel (5) with an
integral graduated scale (6). The
QuickSetter+ also includes a inlet
check valve (7) to prevent reverse
fl ow.
