Thermostatic mixing valve for use with multiple eye washes or single shower or safety station, accommodating water flows from 3 - 50 GPM. Internal cold water bypass allows for continued cold water delivery upon hot water failure. Dial thermometer indicates shower/eye wash temperature. Integral supply check stops prevent crossover of supplies. Valve comes installed inside wall mounted stainless steel cabinet with lock and key. Valve is factory assembled and tested prior to shipment.
APPLICATION: Tempering valve to blend hot and cold water to deliver tepid water. Valve is installed in stainless steel cabinet designed for surface mounting on finished wall. Valve has flow capacity of 3.0 to 44 gallons per minute (GPM). Valve can be used with single installation of emergency showers and safety stations, and with multiple installations of emergency shower, eyewash, eye/face wash, dual purpose eyewash/drench hose, drench hose and safety station units.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL: Valve has bimetallic thermostat that senses incoming water temperature and automatically blends water to 85å¡F (29å¡C). High temperature limit stop is set to 90å¡F (32å¡C). Valve has dial thermometer on outlet to monitor temperature of delivered water. Note: Valve may need to be adjusted when installed based on incoming water temperature. Refer to "Installation Instructions" for further information.
FAIL SAFE: In event of restriction or failure of hot water supply, internal bypass allows valve to deliver cold water to emergency unit. In bypass mode, valve will deliver 20 GPM of cold water at 30 PSI flow pressure. In event of loss of cold water supply, valve will close and not deliver water.
FLOW CAPACITY: Refer to chart below for flow capacity of valve at specified pressure drops:
System Pressure Drop (PSI) 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40
Flow Rate (GPM) 21 29 38 44 50 53 56 61
System Pressure Drop (bar) .3 .7 1.0 1.4 1.7 2.4 2.4 2.8
Flow Rate (Liters per Minute) 79 110 143 167 189 201 212 231
SUPPLY PRESSURE: 30 PSI minimum supply pressure is required for proper operation of valve. Maximum supply pressure is 125 PSI.
MOUNTING: Tempering valve is mounted in 18 gauge Type 304 stainless steel surface mounted cabinet. Cabinet has hinged door with lock.
INLETS: 1" NPT female hot and cold water inlets. Inlets can be rotated 360 degrees for top or bottom supply. Each inlet has integral water strainer, check valve and supply stop.
OUTLET: 1 1/4" NPT female outlet.
QUALITY ASSURANCE: Valve is completely assembled and water tested prior to shipment. Unit is certified to ASSE 1071. Important: Pursuant to ANSI Z358.1-2004, the water delivered by emergency equipment should be "tepid". Tepid is defined as moderately warm or lukewarm, and is generally considered to be between 60å¡F (15å¡C) and 90å¡F (32å¡C). However, in certain circumstances, a chemical reaction may be accelerated or otherwise affected by the water temperature. Please consult with a medical adviser to determine the optimum delivered water temperature prior to specifying, installing or using a tempering valve. Tempering valves will not deliver the appropriate water temperature if the system has not been sized correctly. Please refer to the flow capacities and supply pressure requirements listed above when designing the tempered water system and selecting tempering valves. Tempering valves, like all emergency eyewash and shower equipment, must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and maintained on a regular basis. Under ANSI Z358.1-2004, all emergency equipment should be activated weekly and inspected at least annually. Tempering valves should be treated the same and, in addition, must be regularly cleaned and cycled. br>
