Jumper Kits
Temporary Bypass for Water
Pressure Reducing Valves
Size: 3/4" – 11/4" (20 – 32mm)
Jumper Kits are used in new construction as a temporary
bypass, prior to the actual installation of a water pressure
reducing valve on potable water supply systems.
The use of a temporary jumper permits testing of the building piping system for leaks and pressure loss and facilitates
pipe flushing prior to the installation of the water pressure
reducing valve. On unsecured job sites, the jumper kit
reduces loss from theft or vandalism.
Jumper Kits come complete with union connections, washers,
and a brass or plastic pipe nipple with male union threads.
The length of the jumper nipple matches the valve lay
length,
allowing the piping to be completed prior to the installation
of a water pressure reducing valve and permitting quick
change out from the jumper to the valve.
The jumper kits include a stainless steel strainer screen to
provide protection from debris downstream of the valve.

Jumper Kits Include: Jumper Nipple, strainer screen, 2 fiber washers,
2 union nuts and tailpieces as described above. Jumper Kits are the
correct lay length for the following water pressure reducing valves:
N35B, N35B-Z3, N45B, 25AUB-DULF, 25AUB-DU LF-Z3, N55B-LF.
When removing Jumper Nipple and inserting the water pressure
reducing valve, two O-rings (ordered separately) are required.
Refer to literature PL-RP-GP for O-ring ordering information.
