MX Series Valves
LARGE FLOW PROPORTIONAL THERMOSTATIC MIXING OR DIVERTING VALVE

PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS

• Dual purpose mixing or diverting valve.
• Constant water temperature under different operating conditions.
• Proportional valve (control of hot and cold water).
• Flow reduction in seconds if cold water supply is uninterrupted.
• Temperature adjustable.
• Unions / tailpieces connections included.
• Install in any position, heat trapping not required.
• Recirculation connection for fast response.

APPLICATION

Any application requiring accurate control of water temperature based on mixing of hot and cold water, such as: Domestic water for hotels, schools, hospitals, nursing homes, offices, public facilities, commercial and industrial buildings, space heating, central distribution systems, heat pump systems, radiant floor heating, combo systems and industrial applications.
Installer:
1. Fill in measured discharge temperature on CAUTION label.
2. Attach CAUTION label to MX series valve.
3. Explain CAUTION label to owner.
4. Leave this instruction sheet with owner or on the job site.

Benefits

The MX Series thermostatic mixing valve provides energy savings, increased comfort and safety for the user.
• Brass / stainless steel construction.
®
• Water surfaces Teflon deposits.
• Allen wrench for temperature adjustment included.
• Maximum pressure differential between hot and cold ports is 7 psi.
• ASSE 1017 tested and certified.
• CSA approved.
coated to prevent lime

OPERATION

Automatic operation is provided by the thermostatic element. Element will control hot and cold supply based on valve setting. If cold water is shut off, valve reduces mixed flow in seconds (speed/residual flow rates vary by size).
CAUTION
For domestic water application use “C” model, set temperature to not exceed 120° F (49° C) for safety. Do not override calibration. Test temperature with thermometers.

Service

To remove dirt, flush valve. Top remove calcium deposits, soak valve in vinegar for 24 and flush or contact factory for assistance. Do not attempt to field repair this calibrated valve.

Temperature Selection

The MX Series Valves are made in two ranges: 110°-150° F (43°-66° C) and 90°-120° F (32°-49° C). The factory setting is 130° F (54° C), and 105° F (41° C) respectively. Change temperature setting with an Allen wrench, which is included; 3/16 for MX 127 or a 5/16 for MX 128, MX 129 and MX 130. Punch through the center of the temperature range label. By turning the screw clockwise, the mix temperature increases (counterclockwise, it decreases). Each complete turn with the Allen wrench changes the temperature as follows: MX 127 (1 in.); 11° F (6° C), MX 128 (1-1/4 in.), MX 129 (1-1/2 in.) and MX 130 (2 in.), 7° F (4° C). Do not operate valve at temperatures outside of its calibrated range of 110°-150° F (43°-66° C) or 90°-120° F (32°-49° C). Use a thermometer to verify temperature.

NOTE: “V” is optional depending on local codes. If a “V” type
valve is used, it is mandatory that a thermal expan­sion tank be installed as shown.Otherwise danger­ously high pressures could result or water heater safety relief valve will frequently expel water. If a “V” device is not used, a thermal expansion tank is not required.

Space Heating

Boiler must operate at a water temperature higher than desired temperature in the heating system in order to perform at maximum efficiency. Example: Radiant floor heating.
