Install Instructions

Plumbing installation
Before installing the LEGIOMIX electronic mixing valve, pipes must be flushed to prevent impurities in
the water from affecting performance. Always install strainers of appropriately sized capacity at the inlet
from the water main supply. Caleffi LEGIOMIX electronic mixing valves must be installed as shown be-
low, conforming to applicable codes, and installed either vertically or horizontally, but the actuator must
never be oriented upside down.
The mixing valve body indicates with arrows, hot water inlet- red, cold water inlet - blue.
Check valve
In systems with inlet pressure fluctuations, check valves should be installed to prevent backflows, as
is shown in the application diagrams. Check valves, code NA10366 (for 1” and 1¼” LEGIOMIX) and
NA10367 (for 1½” and 2” LEGIOMIX
)
may be used.
Commissioning
Due to the special purpose for electronic mixing valves, commissioning in accordance with current
regulations and by qualified personnel using suitable instruments is required. Check that the hot and
cold water supply pressures are within operating limits of the mixing valve, see technical specifications.
Check the temperature of the hot water coming from storage, greater than or equal to 140°F (60°C).
Record all parameters settings and measurements taken in the installation log book.
Maintenance
During service, regularly monitor the performance of the LEGIOMIX electronic mixing valve since any
loss of performance may indicate maintenance is needed for the valve or the system. If the temperature
of the mixed water is found the have changed significantly compared to previous recordings, refer to
installation and commissioning sections. The following check points are recommended periodically, at
least every 12 months or more frequently, to ensure that the valve continues to deliver optimum levels
of performance:
1) Check and clean the filters installed in the system.
2) Check that any check valve installed at the inlet of the LEGIOMIX electronic mixing valve is functioning
correctly, and there are no leaks caused by dirt.
3) The internal components of the valve can be descaled by immersing in a suitable descaling fluid.
4) Follow commissioning procedure again after maintainable components have been checked.
5) Record all operations conducted on system log book.
