Concentric exposed thermostatic mixer valve

INTRODUCTION

This book contains all the necessary fitting and operating instructions for your mixer shower.

Please read them carefully and read through the whole of this book before beginning your installation.

The shower installation must be carried out by a suitably competent person and in sequence of this instruction book.

Care taken during the installation will give a long and trouble free life from your mixer shower.

SITE REQUIREMENTS

The installation must be in accordance with

Water Regulations and Bylaws. Valves operating outside these conditions of use cannot be guaranteed to operate as Type 3 valves.

Water pressure requirements

Running water pressure:

Gravity fed (LP) - 0.2 bar min.

1.0 bar max.

Mains fed (HP) - 1.0 bar min.

5.0 bar max.

Maximum static water pressure:

Gravity and mains - 10 bar

This mixer shower is designed for use with traditional low pressure ‘gravity’ water systems, using a cold water cistern and hot water cylinder as well as for the higher pressure systems found in the UK up to a maximum of 5 bar running pressure.

For effective operation of the internal seals, the maximum static pressure must not be exceeded.

Pressure reducing valve

On sites where the running pressure is above 5 bar, the use of a suitably sized pressure reducing valve fitted in the cold mains supply pipe work can provide nominally equal pressures at the mixer shower.

Replacement parts can be ordered from Triton Customer

Service. See ‘spare parts’ for details and part numbers.

Water minimum flow rate

For best performance within the specified running pressure range a minimum flow of 8 litres per minute should be available to both inlets.

Water temperature requirements

Maximum hot water temperature: = 80°C

TMV3 Recommended maximum: = 65°C

Minimum hot water temperature: = 52°C

Maximum cold water temperature: = 20°C

Minimum cold water temperature: = 5°C

Minimum temperature differential: = 10°C

The mixer shower MUST NOT be subjected to water temperatures above 80°C.

BS 6700 recommends that the temperature of stored water should never exceed 65°C.

A stored water temperature of 60°C is considered sufficient to meet all normal requirements and will minimise the effects of scale in hard water areas.

Water temperature adjustment and thermal safety

The mixed water temperature can be adjusted from cold through to a top limit which must be preset during installation with full anti-scald protection throughout the range (35°C to 40°C) providing the hot water temperature at the inlet remains 10°C above the outlet temperature.

Should there be a loss of flow to either incoming supply then- water from the shower will stop or be reduced until both supplies are restored.

SAFETY WARNINGS

a. DO NOT choose a position where the shower could become frozen.

b. DO NOT connect this mixer shower to any form of tap or fitting not recommended by the manufacturer.

c. DO NOT allow the inlet pressure or flow rates to operate outside the guidelines laid out in ‘site requirements’.

d. DO NOT connect the mixer shower to a gravity hot supply and a mains cold supply

(or vice versa).

Concentric exposed thermostatic mixer valve

PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS

DO NOT use jointing compounds on any pipe fittings for the installation,

DO NOT solder fittings near the mixer unit as heat can transfer along the pipework and damage the mixer valve.

IMPORTANT:

• The layout and sizing of pipework MUST be such that nominally equal inlet supply pressures are achieved and the effects of other draw-offs are minimised.

• The pipe-work should be installed such that other taps and appliances being operated elsewhere on the premises do not significantly affect the flow.

• When connecting pipe-work avoid using tight 90° elbows; swept or formed bends will give the best performance.

• The hot water pipe entry MUST be made to the left-hand side inlet, marked HOT, ‘H’ or with a red/orange label.

• Suitable isolating valves (complying with

Water Regulations and Bylaws) MUST be fitted on the hot and cold water supplies to the shower as an independent means of isolating the water supplies should maintenance or servicing be necessary.

• Suitable backflow prevention devices MUST be installed with this product in accordance with the water supply (water fittings) Regulations 1999.

• It is preferable to flush the pipe-work to clear the system of debris and check for leaks before connecting to the mixer.

• The mixer inlets contain removable filters that may become blocked if debris is not flushed through before fitting.

(Commercial applications)

• It is recommended for all commercial applications that easily accessible in-line filters are used to aid maintenance.

Hard water areas

a. If it is intended to operate the shower in areas of hard water (above 200-ppm temporary hardness), a scale inhibitor may have to be fitted. For advice on the scale inhibitor, please contact Customer Service.

b. For best performance the showerhead MUST be regularly cleaned to remove scale and debris.

WATER SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

This mixer shower is suitable for:

• Gravity water systems

• Pumped gravity systems

• Fully modulating type combination boilers

• Multi-point hot water heaters

• Thermal storage

• Unvented systems

NOTE: When installing this mixer with a

Combination or multi-point boiler, it may be

necessary to install flow regulation.

Check that the appliance is capable of delivering hot water at a minimum switch-on flow rate of 3 litres per minute. At flow rates between 3 and 8 litres per minute, the appliance must be capable of raising the water temperature to 52°C

(minimum).

Water temperature at the inlet of the mixer valve must remain relatively constant when flow rate adjustments are made (refer to the applianceoperating manual to confirm compatibility with this mixer shower).

Where thermal store systems and instantaneous gas water heaters are used, if excessive drawoff take place the appliance may not be able to maintain an adequate output temperature. This could result in the shower temperature becoming noticeably cooler.

Flow regulators can be fitted with high-pressure water systems to reduce flow rate and assist economy.

The hot supply temperature MUST remain a

minimum of 10°C hotter than the required blend temperature for optimum performance.

Commercial gravity fed systems (fig.2)

The shower control MUST be fed from a cold water cistern and hot water cylinder providing nominally equal pressures. There MUST be a minimum of one metre head of water.

The minimum head distance is measured from the base of the cold water cistern to top of the showerhead. If water supply is fed by gravity then supply pressure should be verified.

Commercial unvented mains pressure

systems (fig.3)

The shower control can be installed with an unvented, stored hot water cylinder.

For systems with no cold water take off after the appliance-reducing valve, it will be necessary to fit an additional drop tight pressure-reducing valve when the mains pressure is over 5 bar. The drop tight pressure reducing valve MUST be set at the same value as the unvented package pressure reducing valve.

NOTE: An additional expansion vessel may be required if a second pressure-reducing valve is installed. This does not apply to packages with a cold take off after the pressure-reducing valve to the cylinder.

INSTALLATION

Preparing the mixer valve

Check the contents to make sure all parts are present.

Before starting the mixer installation, make sure all the openings on the valve are carefully covered to stop ingress of any debris, etc. while routing the supply pipework.

The shower valve is suitable for:

• built-in installation in a solid wall

• a stud partition wall

• a dry lined wall

• fixing to a shower cubicle or panel.

Siting of the shower and accessories

Refer to (fig.4) for correct siting of the shower.

The mixer valve should be positioned, as detailed, with all controls within comfortable reached of the user.

The accessories (showerhead, riser rail and/or fixed showerhead) can be positioned above or to either side of the shower, refer to (fig.4).

Supply pipe work

Complete the pipework to the shower area having decided on the position of the shower and direction of pipe entry (for example rising, falling or rear entry)

The hot and cold water pipes should not be permanently attached to the wall within one metre of the valve, before installation is complete, to allow for final adjustment of the valve position.

Rear entry supplies

Using a spirit level, mark the route of incoming hot and cold water supply pipes at a distance of 150mm (approximately) between centres

(fig.5).

FITTING THE MIXER

Mark the position of the four locating screws for the mounting plate, although if installing to a solid brick wall using two diagonal holes will usually be enough.

Drill and plug the holes using the wall plugs provided. (The wall plugs provided are suitable for most brick walls — use an appropriate masonry drill, but if the wall is plasterboard or a soft building block, use special wall plugs and a suitable drill bit).

Fit the mounting plate onto the wall using the screws supplied (fig.6).

The inlet elbows allow for either rising, falling or rear entry hot and cold water supplies. The elbows have ‘O’ ring seals (fig.7) to the body and do not require PTFE tape or other means of sealing.

IMPORTANT: Make sure that all supply pipework has been flushed through before fitting

the mixer (fig.8).

Fit the trim onto the inlet water pipes followed by the nut and olive (fig.9).

Connect the hot water supply to the inlet marked

HOT, ‘H’ or red/orange label and connect the cold water supply to the inlet marked COLD, ‘C’ or blue label (fig.9).

Tighten all compression fittings

Tighten all the grub screws to secure the mixer to mounting plate.

Outlet adapter and plug

The outlet adapter and plug can be repositioned dependant on the outlet required (top or bottom).

Flow regulation

A flow regulator is supplied for use with highpressure water systems and may be fitted with any of the systems listed to reduce flow rate and assist economy.

6

Concentric exposed thermostatic mixer valve

To fit the flow regulators

• Unscrew the elbows from the mixer.

• Remove the internal retaining nut.

• Fit the flow regulator.

• Refit the internal retaining nut and elbows.

Please note the flow regulator is only

designed to work in one direction (fig.10).

HOT

ANTI-SCALD PROTECTION

It is important that the mixer valve is tested regularly to prevent the risk of scalding and guarantee user safety. This can be carried out as follows: with the mixer blend temperature set at 38°C isolate the cold water supply. The outlet flow rate will reduce to a safe level.

Recommended outlet temperatures

The BuildCert TMV scheme recommends the following set maximum mixed water outlet temperatures for use in all premises:

44°C - for bath fill but see notes below.

41°C - for showers.

41°C - for washbasins.

38°C - for bidets.

The mixed water temperatures must never exceed 46°C at terminal fitting.

The British Burns Association recommends 37 to

37.5°C as a comfortable bathing temperature for children. In premises covered by the Care

Standards Act 2000, the maximum mixed water outlet temperature is 43°C.

LEAK TESTING

Direct the outlet of the mixer to waste. Open the isolating valves to the shower and check for leaks.

Remedy any leaks found.

COMMISSIONING (TMV3)

The following conforms to NHS Estates Model Engineering Specification D08 for when the mixer has been installed in healthcare premises.

Important: Make sure that all supply pipework has been flushed through before commissioning.

The maximum temperature should not exceed 41°C.

Start the water flow by rotating the flow control.

Make sure that both the hot and cold water supplies are fully open and at (or near to) their design temperature and pressures, and are within the requirements as stated.

Make sure the temperatu re control is at the maximum temperature setting.

Allow the shower to run at the maximum temperature setting until the water temperature has stabilised. Rotate the temperature control until your desired maximum showering temperature is reached.

The mixer has a temperature stop to prevent accidental rotation to higher temperatures. This is adjustable to provide a maximum temperature of 41°C and should be checked on site to guarantee user safety.

After setting the maximum temperature, turn the shower on and off several times and check the maximum setting is correct. Record the commissioning data on the maintenance record at the rear of this book in order for the in-service performance of the mixer valve to be assessed.

Finally, check the thermal shut off facility of the valve by performing a thermal shut off test.

Shut off the cold supply.

The flow from the shower should stop immediately or reduce to a trickle in which case the water temperature should be less than 43°C.

In either case there is no risk of scalding.

If, however, the temperature is above 43°C then it is likely there is contamination in the valve stopping it from shutting off the hot supply. In this case refer to the maintenance section or contact Customer Service.

In domestic installations where D08 specification is not required, the maximum temperature setting should not exceed 46°C.

Temperature adjustment range

The mixed water temperature can be adjusted from cold through to a top limit (which can be pre-set during installation – factory set at approximately 38°C) with full anti-scald protection throughout the range.

ADJUSTING THE MAXIMUM

TEMPERATURE SETTING

(and fitting the levers)

NOTE: Due to varying site conditions it is advised that the valves maximum temperature be set on

site (to around 38°C) once the mixer has been installed and commissioned using a calibrated thermometer.

• The levers are supplied loose in the box.

• To adjust the maximum temperature setting remove the temperature control using a suitable allen key. Allow the water to run until the temperature has stabilised. Adjust the temperature control spindle by hand

(fig.11).

• When the showering temperature is satisfactory turn off the shower.

• Refit the temperature knob, making sure the maximum temperature stop pin is as close to the over ride stop face as possible (fig.12).

• Secure in place with the retaining grub screw and fit the levers.

NOTE: If ‘Tamper proof’

lever fitting is required, tighten the levers into the controls using a suitable Allen

key placed into the recessed ‘hex’ end of the lever.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE LEVER.

IN SERVICE TESTING

The following procedure must be carried out for commercial and health care premises, but is not necessarily required for domestic installations.

Maintenance of the unit is required to give continued performance after installation and that it continues to provide scald prevention.

Note: A thermostatic mixing valve in need of maintenance can be undetectable in normal use and only becomes apparent when a disruption occurs in the hot or cold water supply temperatures or pressures.

Purpose

The purpose of in-service tests is to regularly monitor and record the performance of the thermostatic mixing valve. Deterioration in performance can indicate the need for service work on the valve and/or the water supplies.

Procedure

Using the same measuring equipment or equipment to the same specification as used in the commissioning of the valve, adjust the temperature of the mixed water in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and the requirement of the application. Carry out the following sequence: a) record the temperature of the hot and cold water supplies b) record the temperature of the mixed water at the largest draw-off flow rate c) record the temperature of the mixed water at a smaller draw-off flow rate, which shall be measured

If the mixed water temperature has changed significantly from the previous test results (e.g.>

1 K) 5), record the change and before readjusting the mixed water temperature check: a) that any in-line or integral strainers are clean b) any in-line or integral check valves or other anti-back siphonage devices are in good working order c) any isolating valves are fully open

With an acceptable mixed water temperature, complete the following procedure: a) record the temperature of the hot and cold water supplies b) record the temperature of the mixed water at the largest draw-off flow rate c) record the temperature of the mixed water at a smaller draw-off flow rate, which shall be measured d) isolate the cold water supply to the mixing valve and monitor the mixed water temperature e) record the maximum temperature achieved as a result of (d) and the final stabilised temperature f) record the equipment, thermometer etc. used for the measurements

If at step (e) the final mixed water temperature is greater than the values in Table 17 and / or the maximum temperature exceeds the corresponding value from the previous results by more than about 2 K, the need for service work is indicated

NOTE: In-service tests should be carried out with a frequency, which identifies a need for service work before an unsafe water temperature can result. In the absence of any other instruction or guidance, the procedure described in Annex F of D 08 may be used

Annex F of D 08 (informative)

14

Concentric exposed thermostatic mixer valve

FREQUENCY OF IN-SERVICE TESTS

General

In the absence of any other instruction or guidance on the means of determining the appropriate frequency of in-service testing, the following procedure may be used: a) 6 to 8 weeks after commissioning carry out the tests detailed in

“In-Service Tests”

b) 12 to 15 weeks after commissioning carry out the tests detailed in

“In-Service Tests”

Depending on the results of the above tests, several possibilities exist: a) If no significant changes (e.g. ≤ 1 K) in mixed water temperatures are recorded between commissioning and 6 to 8 week testing, or between commissioning and

12-15 week testing the next in-service test can be deferred to 24 to 28 weeks after commissioning.

b) If small changes (e.g. 1 to 2 K) in mixed water temperatures are recorded in only one of these periods, necessitating adjustment of the mixed water temperature, then the next in-service test can be deferred to 24 to 28 weeks after commissioning.

c) If small changes (e.g. 1 to 2 K) in mixed water temperatures are recorded in both of these periods, necessitating adjustment of the mixed water temperature, then the next in-service test should be carried out at 18 to

21 weeks after commissioning.

d) If significant changes (e.g. > 2 K) in mixed water temperatures are recorded in either of these periods, necessitating service work, then the next in-service test should be carried out at 18 to 21 weeks after commissioning.

The general principle to be observed after the first 2 or 3 in-service tests is that the intervals of future tests should be set to those which previous tests have shown can be achieved with no more than a small change in mixed water temperature.

Note: A testing record page has been added to the back of the book for your use.
