RECOMMENDED PURGING STEPS:
1. CLOSE V1, PV4, V2
2. OPEN V3
3. OPEN FF VALVE
4. OPEN V2, PV4, TO PURGE ZONE 1
5. CLOSE FF VALVE
6. CLOSE V2, PV4
7. REPEAT STEPS 1 TO 6 FOR EACH
ADDITIONAL ZONE
8. OPEN V1 WHEN ALL ZONES ARE
PURGED
9. ADJUST SYSTEM TO DESIRED
OPERATING FILL PRESSURE IF
REQUIRED
5. Fill system with tap water – The system must be filled before operating the circulator. The bearings are water lubricat-
ed and should not be allowed to operate dry. Filling the system will result in immediate lubrication of the bearings. It is
always good practice to flush a new system of foreign matter before starting the circulator.
6. Circulator operation – Operate the circulator for 5 minutes immediately after flushing the system to purge remaining air
f
rom the bearing chamber. This is especially important when installing the circulator during the off-season.
7. Turn speed dial on circulator to the desired speed and performance range. See Figure 3.
