User Guide
The dierential pressure by-pass valve can be tted in any position,
respecting the ow direction indicated by the arrow on the valve body.
In systems with a traditional boiler it is normally tted between the
system ow and return ends, which allows the control of the pressure
and the passage of a minimum ow through the heat generator.
In systems withacondensation boiler, it is preferable to t the
by-pass directly between the upstream and downstream sections of
the pump, as this allows a higher
∆T in the circuit, with lower return
temperatures and therefore better operation of the system.
In the event of high by-pass ow rate levels, it is recommended to t
the valve between the ow and return ends of each column, rather
than ttinganumber of valves in parallel at the central boiler.

Installation
To regulate the valve, turn the knob to the required value on the
graduated scale: the values correspond to the dierential pressure in
psi or meters w.g. to open the by-pass.
For a quick setup adjustment of the dierential pressure by-pass
valve, use the following manual method. As an example, a hydronic
system with several zone valves: the system must be operating, the
zone valves must be fully open and the by-pass valve must be set to
the maximum value (a) (clockwise). Gradually open the dierential
pressure by-pass valve using the control knob (counterclockwise).
Usea
thermometer, or simply your hand, to check that the hot water
is owing into the by-pass circuit (b). As soon as a rise in the
temperature is noted, turn control knob (clockwise) one half turn
closed so hot water stops owing into the by-pass (c). Lock the knob
in this position (d) with the locking screw.
