Steps:
1. Make sure the valve is easily useable by hand with minimal force before continuing
further with installation. Even though the Actuator was built with a strong and
durable motor, if the valve is too stiff, it may need to be replaced before proceeding
with installation.
2. Place the ball valve in the closed position. Special note: this is very important to
ensure proper alignment of the Actuator on the ball valve.
3. Using the manual release pin on the bottom of the unit, move the valve actuator arm
to the closed position as well.
4. Open both hose clamps by unscrewing them until the strap is free from the screw.
5. Insert the ends of both hose clamps through the mounting bracket and leave them
loose.
6. Open the screws (4x) on the control arm to allow the brackets to move freely.
7. Remove rubber valve handle cover on existing ball valve or use a utility knife to
remove dipped rubber material from the sides of the valve handle to allow smooth
operation.
8. Place the mounting bracket on the pipe and open the hose clamps ends to go over
the pipe you are mounting the actuator on. Loosely tighten the hose clamps so the
unit remains movable.
9. Align the control arm with the valve handle and place over the handle.
10. Gently close the control arm brackets around the valve handle. Do not close the
control arm bracket too tightly around the valve handle or the unit will bind on the
handle during operation.
11. While making sure the valve Actuator is aligned with the valve handle, tighten the
screws on the hose clamps until tightly fastened to the plumbing.
12. Plug the unit in with power supply provided. Test for proper installation by
depressing the button on the top of the motor housing. Check for smooth operation
in both open and close functions.
13. Proceed to pairing the unit with your Simple Flow Aqua Remote.
ADMINISTRATION MODE - AQUA REMOTE
Before setting up any Aqua Actuators, a company administrator will first need to set-up the
Aqua Remote. This allows a company owner or administrator to set a Master PIN (MPIN) for
the remote to access the administrator section and also set a Unique Company ID (UCID).
The MPIN and UCID are extremely important and must be saved. These security features
allow the owner/administrator to associate all valve actuators with their company and will
keep anyone without it from accessing or controlling your devices.
Follow these steps to set-up the remote and to access the administrator functions:
