Initial Balancing
System should be properly purged before
balancing is done. Many times it is not possible to
design the system using equal circuit lengths, so
the system must be balanced in order to ensure
proper 󶈶ow to each circuit on the manifold.
Procedure
To begin balancing, all circuits must be in the
closed position.

Valve will go from fully closed to fully
opened in approximately 5 turns.
Flow through meter can be completely
shut off.
Balancing/flow meter valve can be
mounted up, down, left, or right.
DO NOT adjust flow rate by turning
the clear plastic cylinder of the flow
meter. To adjust flow rate, lift up and
rotate red locking cap.

Pull red locking caps up about ¼ (do not
remove cap completely).

Holding onto the red locking cap, turn clockwise
(with system pump still running) until flow meter
reads 0 gpm. Valve is now fully closed.

To increase flow, turn red locking cap
counterclockwise until desired flow rate is met.

Once desired flow rate is met, push red
locking cap back down into starting position.
