2. Functional description
The pressure reducing combination combines a shutoff valve,
a pressure reducing valve and a check valve in one appliance.
Spring loaded pressure reducing valves operate by means of
a force equalising system. The force of a diaphragm operates
against the force of an adjustment spring. If the outlet pressure and therefore diaphragm force fall because water is
drawn, the then greater force of the spring causes the valve
to open. The outlet pressure then increases until the forces
between the diaphragm and the spring are equal again.
The inlet pressure has no influence in either opening or
closing of the valve. Because of this, inlet pressure fluctuation
does not influence the outlet pressure, thus providing inlet
pressure balancing.
Check valves have a moving seal disc which is lifted off the
seat by a greater or lesser amount depending on the flow rate
through the valve. If the flow falls towards zero, then the
spring pushes the disc back onto the seat and seals the
waterway.

7. Assembly
7.1 Installations Guidelines
Ensure that both connections to the PRV are tightened prior
to filling and pressurization
• Install in horizontal pipework with filter bowl downwards.
• The installation location should be protected against frost
and be easily accessible
o Pressure gauge can be read off easily
o Simplified maintenance and cleaning
• For residential applications where maximum protection
against dirt is required, install a fine filter upstream of the
pressure reducing valve
• Provide a straight section of pipework of at least five times
the nominal valve si ze after the pressure reducing valve (in
accordance with DIN 1988, Part 5)
7.2 Assembly instructions
1. Thoroughly flush pipework
2. Install pressure reducing valve combination
o Note flow direction
o Install without tension or bending stresses

8. Commissioning
8.1 Setting outlet pressure
Set outlet pressure min. 1 bar under inlet pressure.
1. Close shutoff valve on inlet
2. Release pressure on outlet side (e.g. through water tap)
3. Fit manometer
4. Close shutoff valve on outlet
5. Loosen slotted screw
o Do not remove slotted screw
6. Slacken tension in compression spring
o Turn control handle to the left (-) until it does not move
any more
7. Slowly open shutoff valve on inlet
8. Turn adjuster knob until the manometer shows the desired
value.
9. Retighten slotted screw
10.Slowly open shutoff valve on outlet
9. Maintenance
We recommend a planned maintenance contract with
an installation company
In accordance with DIN 1988, part 8, the following measures
must be taken:
9.1 Inspection
9.1.1 Pressure reducing valve
Interval: once a year
1. Close shut off valve on outlet
2. Check back pressure using a pressure meter when there
is zero through-flow
o If the pressure is increasing slowly, the valve may be
dirty or defective. In this instance, carry out servicing and
cleaning
3. Slowly open shutoff valve on outlet
9.1.2 Check valve
Interval: once a year
1. Close shut off valve on outlet
2. Open check valve
o Until the pressure is released, some water will flow out of
the check valve. After a short period of time the water
flow should stop. If the water continues to drip or run,
then the backflow preventer must be replaced - see
servicing of backflow preventer
3. Close check valve again
4. Open shut-off valve again
9.2 Maintenance
9.2.1 Pressure reducing valve
Frequency: every 1-3 years (depending on local
operating conditions)
To be carried out by an installation company
1. Close shutoff valve on inlet
2. Release pressure on outlet side (e.g. through water tap)
3. Close shutoff valve on outlet
4. Loosen slotted screw
o Do not remove slotted screw
Caution !
There is a spring in the spring bonnet. It may cause
injuries if the spring is derailing.
• Make sure tension in compression spring is slakkened!
5. Slacken tension in compression spring
o Turn control handle to the left (-) until it does not move
any more
6. Unscrew spring bonnet
o Use double ring wrench ZR06K
7. Remove slip ring
8. Remove valve insert with a pair of pliers
9. Unscrew filter bowl
o Use double ring wrench ZR06K
10.Remove slotted ring
11.Check that sealing ring, edge of nozzle and slotted ring are
in good condition, and if necessary replace the entire valve
insert
12.Remove filter, clean and reinsert
13.Place O-ring onto filter bowl
14.Reassemble in reverse order
Press in diaphragm with finger before inserting slip ring
Screw in filter cup hand-tight (without tools)
15.Adjust setting scale and set outlet pressure
9.2.2 Check valve
To be carried out by an installation company
1. Close shutoff valve on inlet
2. Release pressure on outlet side (e.g. through water tap)
