Toro P-220G Series User Manual

Introduction
Built on proven technologies and components, the Toro P-220 Series plastic valves are tough, have excellent performance and are extremely reliable.
A self-cleaning metering system and 220 PSI rating assures years of trouble-free performance.
In commercial installations, it is advantageous to install the valves in a valve box. This enables the valve to be easily located, accessed and maintained. The use of clean aggregate in the the bottom of the box, and locating the valve box away from structures, potential hardscaping features (such as sidewalks) and large planting locations is recommended. Additionally, valve box locations generally should be in shrub beds and at right angles to structure locations. If the valves are installed below grade without a valve box, access to the top of the valve should be provided by using a section of 4" PVC pipe and a Toro Valve Cover (P/N 850-00) installed directly over each valve.

Installation Guidelines
Note the flow direction arrows on the bonnet or body and install accordingly
CAUTION: Using pipe dope on valve connections can cause thread damage and failure of the valve body. Use only teflon tape or pipe thread sealant.
The valve can be installed at any angle without af
fecting operation.
The valve body plug and o-ring must be properly installed in the unused inlet.
•Waterproof wire splice connectors are absolutely essential for proper electric control system operation. Follow the installation
instructions provided with the connectors for optimum waterproof splice protection.
Leaving a wire expansion loop at each valve location on long-run wire lengths is recommended.
Valve Operation and Adjustment
Flow Control
The flow control is used to reduce the flow and pressure to valve outlet. By turning the control handle clockwise, the flow will be gradually reduced to zero.
For valve models without EZReg, adjust the flow control as necessary for optimum sprinkler performance.
For valve models with EZReg, the flow control should remain in the fully open position. Use only for emergency shut off or
for valve zone fine tuning.
Internal Manual Bleed Knob
The internal manual bleed system is used to manually operate the valve. Turning the internal bleed knob (located beneath the solenoid) counterclockwise allows water to bleed downstream from the diaphragm chamber. Internal pressure is relieved from the top of the diaphragm, allowing the valve to open. Turning the bleed knob clockwise until tight shuts off the discharge enabling pressure to build within the diaphragm chamber, causing the valve to close.
External Manual Bleed Knob (flush mode)
The external manual bleed knob, located on top of the flow control handle, is used for system flushing. Turning this knob counterclockwise allows water in the diaphragm chamber to vent to atmosphere, creating maximum opening power and debris flushing action. This operation bypasses the regulator (if installed) and opens the valve fully, regardless of regulator setting. In addition, the metering rod (attached to the external bleed knob) can be easily removed for cleaning as necessary.
EZReg Adjustment (pressure regulating models only)
An accurate, adjustable dial, coupled with a forward-flow valve design, allows the P-220 series valve with EZReg to regulate downstream water pressure with precision. Its easy and simple to use and requires only 10 PSI differential pressure to operate. The EZReg will operate during powered and manual valve operation using internal manual bleed.
To adjust the downstream pressure, remove the cover from the regulator dial, then turn the dial until the pointer is on the desired pressure of 5-30 PSI (EZR-30) or 5-100 PSI (EZR-100).
Note: Due to the micro-adjustment feature of the EZReg, the dial requires 10 revolutions for complete regulation range. Operate the valve (electrically or manually). Check the flow control to confirm that it is in the fully open position. Adjust the
regulator dial if necessary for optimum sprinkler operation. To confirm the downstream pressure using a pressure gauge, remove the cap from the Schrader-type valve located directly
below the EZReg. Attach a Toro pressure gauge (Model 995-51) to the Schrader-type valve for a direct reading. Adjust the EZReg dial as necessary for the desired pressure.
Note: The valve will remain watertight in the closed position if removal of the EZReg assembly is required.
