THIS VALVE MEETS OR EXCEEDS THE
FOLLOWING STANDARDS: ASME A112.18.1/
CSA B125.1 and ASSE 1016 (Type -P- or -T-).
CAUTION: This system/device must be set by the
installer to ensure safe, maximum temperature.
Any change in the setting may raise the discharge
temperature above the limit considered safe and
may lead to hot water burns.
NOTICE TO INSTALLER: CAUTION!–As the
installer of this valve, it is your responsibility
to properly INSTALL and ADJUST this valve
per the instructions given.This valve does
not automatically adjust for inlet temperature
changes, therefore, someone must make the
necessary Rotational Limit Stop adjustments
at the time of installation and further adjustments
may be necessary due to seasonal water
temperature change.YOU MUST inform the
owner/user of this requirement by following
the instructions. If you or the owner/user are
unsure how to properly make these adjustments
please refer to page 7 and if still uncertain, call
us at 1-800-345-DELTA.
After installation and adjustment, you must afx
your name, company name and the date you
adjusted the Rotational Limit Stop to the caution
label provided and apply or attach the label to
the back side of the closest cabinet door and the
warning label to the water heater. Leave this
Instruction Sheet for the owner’s/user’s
reference.
WARNING:This pressure balanced or
thermostatic bath valve is designed
to minimize the effects of outlet water
temperature changes due to inlet pressure
changes, commonly caused by dishwashers,
washing machines, toilets and the like. It may
not provide protection from hot water burns
when there is a failure of other temperature
controlling devices elsewhere in the
plumbing system, if the rotational limit stop
is not properly set or if the hot water
temperature is changed after the settings are
made or if the water inlet changes
due to seasonal changes.
WARNING: Do not install a shut-off device on
either outlet of this valve. When this type of
device shuts off the water flow, it can defeat
the ability of the valve to balance the hot and
cold water pressures.

Installation and Adjustment of the Rotational Limit Stop
A. B.
Place the temperature control knob (1) on
volume handle and rotate to the mixed position
(if required). DO NOT SECURE WITH
SCREW. Turn on water supplies; let the water
run until both hot and cold water is as hot/ cold
as possible. Place thermometer in a plastic
tumbler, and hold the tumbler in the water
stream. Record the temperature reading.
If the water temperature is above 120°F, remove
the temperature control knob (1) and rotate the
limit stop (2) clockwise one tooth for every 4°F
- 6°F (approximate) change in temperature. If
water temperature is cooler than desired, rotate
the limit stop counterclockwise.
IMPORTANT: The rst position of the Rotational
Limit Stop (the Limiter) is that position that
restricts the rotation of the stem the most and is
at the maximum clockwise setting. According to
industry standards, the maximum allowable
temperature of the water exiting from the valve
is 120oF. This temperature may vary in your local
area. The Rotational Limit Stop may need to be
readjusted if the inlet water temperature changes.
For instance, during the winter, the cold water
temperature is colder than it is during the summer
which could result in varying outlet temperatures.
Typical temperature for a comfortable bath or
shower is between 90o–110o F.
5Potential scald or thermal shock injury could result due to cross ow if outlet at the shower is
blocked or restricted (e.g., pause control on showerhead). Be sure to point showerhead away
from you when re-starting ow or install inlet check valves on both supply lines to prevent
possible injury.

RP46463 or RP32104
See Helpful Hints 1, 2, 3 & 4.
Helpful Hints:
1. Before removing valve cartridge assembly for any
maintenance, be sure to note the position of the
rotational limit stop on the cap. The valve cartridge
assembly must always be put back in the same
position. BE SAFE! After you have nished the
installation, turn on valve to make sure COLD
WATER FLOWS FIRST.
2. To remove valve cartridge from body, shut off
water supplies and remove handle and bonnet nut.
Do not pry the valve cartridge out of the body with
a screwdriver. Place handle on stem and rotate
counterclockwise approximately 1/4 turn after the
stop has been contacted. Lift valve cartridge out
of body.
Remove seats and springs and replace.
Place the largest diameter of the spring into the
seat pocket rst and then press the tapered end
of the seal over the spring. Reassemble valve
cartridge and replace in body following instructions
given in 1 above.
3. If the water in your area has lime, rust, sand
or other contaminants in it, your pressure
balance valve will require periodic inspection.
The frequency of the inspection will depend
on the amount of contaminants in the water. To
inspect valve cartridge remove it and follow the
steps in note 1 above. Turn the valve to the full
mix position and shake the cartridge vigorously.
If there is a rattling sound, the unit is functional
and can be reinstalled following instructions given
in note 1 above. If there is no rattle, replace the
housing assembly with the proper RP.
