3. Einrichtung und Installation
Enthaltene Komponenten:
- 3/4" 24 VAC In-Line Valve
- 3/4" Heavy-Duty Filter (155 mesh screen)
- 25 PSI Preset Pressure Regulator
- 3/4" FHT Swivel Adapter with 700 OD
Installationsschritte:
- Identify Water Source: Locate the main water supply line where the drip zone will be installed.
- Connect to Main Line: Attach the 3/4" FHT swivel adapter to your water source. Ensure a secure, leak-free connection.
- Orient Assembly: Observe the flow direction arrow on the valve assembly. Install the unit so that water flows from the main line, through the filter, then the valve, and finally the pressure regulator.
- Connect Drip System: Connect your drip tubing or irrigation pipe to the outlet side of the pressure regulator.
- Wire the Valve: Connect the two wires from the 24 VAC in-line valve to your irrigation controller's 24 VAC output terminals. Ensure proper electrical connections according to your controller's manual.
- Testsystem: Slowly turn on the main water supply and activate the valve via your irrigation controller to check for leaks and proper operation.
4. Bedienungsanleitung
The DIG DM075 Automatic Valve Assembly is designed to work in conjunction with a 24 VAC irrigation controller. Once properly installed and wired, the valve will open and close based on the programming of your irrigation controller.
- Automatische Operation: The 24 VAC in-line valve receives signals from your irrigation controller to initiate and terminate watering cycles for the designated drip zone.
- Druckregelung: The integrated 25 PSI preset pressure regulator automatically reduces and maintains the water pressure entering your drip system at the optimal 25 PSI, protecting emitters and micro-sprinklers from high pressure damage.
- Filterung: The 155 mesh screen filter continuously removes particles from the water, preventing clogging of drip emitters and ensuring consistent water delivery.
5. Wartung
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your DM075 valve assembly.
- Filterreinigung: Periodically inspect and clean the 155 mesh screen filter. To clean, turn off the water supply, unscrew the filter housing, remove the screen, rinse it thoroughly under running water, and reassemble. Frequency depends on water quality.
- Dichtheitsprüfung: Regularly check all connections for leaks. Tighten any loose fittings.
- Überwinterung: In freezing climates, ensure the system is properly drained and protected from frost damage according to local guidelines for irrigation systems.
