INTRODUCTION
This CliniMix
®
CP-BS Hob Mounted Thermostatic Progressive Basin Mixer - Lever is manufactured to the highest
standards. When installed the supply conditions detailed below must be observed.
SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
This mixer is designed to be installed on all types of plumbing systems.
Hot and cold water supply pressures should be reasonably balanced; however, the mixer will function within
specification on unequal pressures up to 10:1.
The mixer has integral isolating valves which permit servicing of the strainer, check valve/flow regulator and
thermostatic cartridge. They are also used for thermal disinfection.
The minimum pressure for the correct thermal operation is 20kPa. However, to achieve an acceptable flow
performance at very low pressures it may be necessary to remove the combined check valve and flow
regulators and replace them with simple check valves.

6.0 INSTALLATION
The CliniMix
®
Thermostatic Progressive Mixing Valves must be installed using the appropriate Standard,
Code of Practice and legislation application to each state and following the details outlined in this section.
The CliniMix® Thermostatic Progressive Mixing Valves must be installed by a licensed plumber, or where
applicable, a licensed plumber who has undertaken T.A.F.E. training in Thermostatic Mixing Valves.
Note: To effectively control microbial hazards during system design, installation, commissioning and
maintenance, the requirements outlined in AS/NZ3666 and local legislation shall be adhered to.
If the valve is not installed correctly then it will not function correctly and may put the user in danger. It may
also void the warranty of the valve.
Prior to the installation of the valve, the system must be checked to ensure that the system operating
conditions fall within the recommended operating range of CliniMix® Progressive Thermostatic Mixing Valve.
If the hot water supply temperature is greater than 90° Celsius, the valve may be damaged. If the temperature
of the hot water will rise above 90° Celsius a suitable temperature limiting valve must be fitted to the hot water
supply, prior to the inlet fittings. This temperature limiting valve must be installed as per the manufacturer’s
instructions. It is important that both inlet dynamic supply pressures are 500kPa or less. If either supply
pressure exceeds 500kPa then a suitable pressure reducing valve must be fitted prior to the inlet control
valve to reduce the pressure to an acceptable limit.
These pressure reducing valves must be installed as per the manufacturer’s instructions. To achieve optimum
performance from the valve it is recommended that the inlet pressures are balanced to within 10% of each
other.
The water quality conditions should be checked to ensure they do not exceed the limits as listed in AS3500.4,
Section 3.7.1. If they do exceed these limits, then it will be necessary to install a water softener or water
treatment device.
INSTALLATION COMPLIANCE: Galvin Specialised products must be installed in accordance with these
installation instructions and in accordance with AS/NZS 3500, the PCA and your local regulatory requirements.
Water and/or electrical supply conditions must also comply to the applicable national and/or state standards.
Failing to comply with these provisions shall void the product warranty and may affect the performance of the
product.
6.1 MOUNTING DETAILS

Version 2, 29 May 2020, 6 of 18
7.0 COMMISIONING
Initial Test for Correct Operation
The following must be checked to ensure the correct performance of the progressive thermostatic mixer:
 the supply pressures and temperatures are within the range of operating pressures and temperatures
for the thermostatic valve.
 the supply temperatures are within the range permitted for the unit.
Please record the testing done during the commissioning and record the temperature of the hot and cold-water
supplies and the temperature of the mixed water at the full hot setting.
A calibrated digital thermometer having rapid response time with maximum temperature hold will be required
to check and set the outlet mixed temperature of the mixer.
To Commission
To test the temperature, open the valve and allow the mixed heated water to flow for at least 30 to 60 seconds
so the temperature can stabilise before taking a temperature reading at the outlet with a digital thermometer.
The flow rate should be at least 4L/min.
The temperature should be taken close to the mixer’s outlet and if the outlet temperature requires adjustment
then follow the temperature adjustment in the installation instructions.
Shut Down Test
Once the correct outlet temperature has been achieved, the valves internal mechanism should be exercised at
least 3 times by alternately shutting off the hot and cold supplies while the mixer is set in the full hot position.
Shut Down Test 1
With the mixer still set in the full hot position and with both supplies turned on, allow the mixed water
temperature to stabilise for at least 15 seconds and note the outlet temperature. While holding a digital
thermometer in the outlet flow, quickly isolate the cold water supply to the valve.
The outlet flow should quickly reduce to be less than 0.1L/min following the isolation. Recording of the
temperature should continue after isolation and should not exceed the maximum temperature set out in the
applicable standard or code of practice for each state.
Handle in open position

7
Version 2, 29 May 2020, 7 of 18
Restore the cold-water supply to the valve. After the mixed water temperature has stabilised note the outlet
temperature ensuring the outlet temperature has re-established. The time taken to stabilise the temperature
should not exceed the maximum time set out in the applicable standard or code of practice for each state.
Shut Down Test 2
With the mixer still set in full hot position and with both supplies turned on allow the flow to stabilise for at least
15 seconds and record the temperature. Quickly isolate the hot water supply to the valve.
The outlet flow should quickly reduce to be less than 0.4L/min following the isolation. The volume of mixed
water discharged for a period of between 5-35 seconds should be measured and should not exceed the
maximum volume set out in the applicable standard or code of practice for each state.
Restore the hot water supply to the valve and measure and record the outlet temperature after the mixed
water temperature has stabilised. The time taken to stabilise the temperature should not exceed the
maximum time set out in the applicable standard or code of practice for each state.
Ensure that all details of the Commissioning Report are completed, and a copy is kept with the installer and
owner of the premises.
The valve is now commissioned, and it can be used within the technical limits of operation.

Version 2, 29 May 2020, 8 of 18
8.0 OPERATION
As the handle is rotated anti-clockwise from the off position the
delivered water progresses from cold through warm to the pre-set
maximum temperature of approximately 41°C
NOTE: In some installations, certain types of tapware devices such as flick mixers and solenoid valves
are used. The water pressure may be seen to spike outside that recommended for the valve, during
rapid shut off conditions with these types of devices. Even if the spike only lasts a split second it is still
considered to be outside the operating conditions and may cause the valve to operate incorrectly. In the
event that this does occur, measures must be taken to control the spike, such as the installation of an
inline pressure reducing valve directly before the valve inlets.
To ensure that the mixing valve operates correctly, it is necessary that the pipe-work is thoroughly flushed with
clean water before the valve is installed. This will remove any physical contaminants from the pipe-work,
ensuring trouble-free operation. During the flushing procedure, care should be taken to prevent water damage
occurring to the surrounding area.
It is a requirement of AS3500.4.2 that “Each thermostatic mixing valve shall have an isolating stop tap/valve,
line strainer and non-return valve fitted to the hot and cold water supply lines”. The inlet fittings supplied with
each TMV will ensure this requirement is met. If the CliniMix® Progressive Thermostatic Mixing Valve is to be
installed without the supplied inlet control valves then it will be necessary to install a separate isolating valve,
non-return valve and strainer to both inlets to the valve.
Strainers must be fitted to prevent any particulate contamination from entering the valve. These strainers
should be 60 mesh stainless steel (0.250mm). Isolating valves are required so that the water supply to the valve
can be isolated when servicing is required. Non-return devices must also be fitted to both the hot and cold inlets
to prevent cross-contamination.
Ensure that the test plugs in the top of the inlet fittings are tight.
The valve should be installed so it can be easily accessed for maintenance or servicing.
During installation or servicing, heat must not be applied near the mixing valve or inlet fittings, as this will
damage the valve and inlet fittings internals. Failure to comply with this requirement will damage the valve and
fittings. It will put the user at risk and it will void the warranty of the valve.
Note: The CliniMix® Thermostatic Progressive Mixing Valve is intended mainly for use in applications
with set temperatures below 45° Celsius. When installed at higher set temperature, the performance
may be less than specified in AS4032.4. In such situations consideration should be given to the
question of whether an alternative device, i.e. a tempering valve approved to AS4032.2 would provide a
greater margin for safety in reducing scalding accidents.

9.1 Frequency of Regular Servicing
The purpose of servicing regularly is to monitor any changes in performance due to changes in either the system or
the product. This may highlight the need to adjust either the supply system or the product. These products should be
checked at 6 to 8 weeks and again at 12 to 15 weeks after commissioning. The results are to be compared against
original commissioning settings.
If there are no significant changes at the mixed temperature outlet then a 6 monthly servicing cycle may be adopted.
Otherwise, servicing checks should be carried out more frequently (e.g. every 4 months).
Follow the recommended maintenance procedures detailed in section 10.
During servicing, note the following:
1. Repeat the procedure of recording and checking supply temperatures. (The same type of measuring
equipment should be used)
2. If the temperature has changed significantly from the previously recorded valves, the following should be
checked:
a. All in-line or integral valve filters are clear of obstruction.
b. All in-line or integral check valves are clean and working properly to prevent backflow.
c. Any isolating valves are fully open.
d. The thermostat is free of debris
3. When satisfied with the mixed outlet temperatures re-record the temperatures.
9.2 General Servicing
General Servicing of the CliniMix CP-BS Hob Mounted Thermostatic Progressive Basin Mixer – Lever

 Ensure both the hot and cold water supplies have been isolated.
 Unscrew the flexible hoses from the brass non-return/strainer body and detach the bodies from isolation
valves. Using circlip pliers, remove clips from the brass fittings. Remove non-return valves and strainers.
 The strainers and non-return valves should be cleaned with a dilute water solution of suitable de-scaling
solvent (such as CLR), checked for physical damage and then thoroughly rinsed with clean water.
 Replace any broken filters or faulty non-return valves.
Removal and inspection of cartridge
1. After checking that supply conditions are within the specified parameters (see table 1), if the fitting
malfunctions or should the test results fail to fall within the specified limits consider replacing the cartridge
with a new one. See 10.2 Important notes on debris.
2. Refer to section 11.0 for the isolation procedure.
3. Isolate the fitting by turning the isolating valves 90° anti-clockwise (viewed facing the isolation valve).
4. Remove the lever handle. Unscrew the cartridge from the body with a 36mm AF deep socket. Clean all
components thoroughly and inspect cartridge for damage. If the components are damage, the cartridge must
be replaced.
5. The cleaned cartridge (or a new cartridge, if this is required) can now be re-installed, by screwing into the
mixer body until it reaches a firm stop and tightened.
6. The cartridge should be tightened to a torque of 15Nm.
7. Replace lever handle (see section 6.2) and reinstate the water supplies.
8. After fitting the new cartridge, perform the commissioning procedure (section 7.0).
When service is complete, slowly open the cold water isolation valve and inspect mixer body for leaks. Repeat
with hot water isolation valves. Open the mixer by rotating handle anti-clockwise and check operation and flow.
Commence commissioning process.
Annual Maintenance Procedure
 Every 12 months the thermostatic mixer must be inspected & tested. The valve should be inspected for
leaks or water damage and appropriate action taken if required.
 Carry out the general servicing of the valve as set out in this document
 A thermal shut down test is performed (Shut Down Test 1 and 2 as set out in this document), and the
temperature is reset as required.
 If the valve fails to shut down or fails to maintain its set temperature, then refer to Troubleshooting
section.

11
Version 2, 29 May 2020, 11 of 18
5 Year Maintenance Procedure
 Every five years the thermostatic mixer needs to have a full service carried out. This service consists of
the same procedure as the ‘Annual Maintenance Procedure’ listed plus the thermostatic mixer cartridge
must be replaced.
 After replacing the thermostatic mixer cartridge, a thermal shut down test is performed, and the
temperature re-set as required. If the valve fails to shut down or fails to maintain its set temperature,
then refer to the troubleshooting section.
 Once the 5 yearly maintenance procedure is complete, the thermostatic mixer should then be
commissioned as per instructions.
10.0 MAINTENANCE
When installed as an AS/NZS 4032.4 application it is a requirement that the commissioning (section 7.0) and
maintenance procedures in (section 10) are carried out before use.
10.1 Adjustment of the mix temperature
1. Close the valve. 2. Remove top cap, screw
and handle, ensure that
the cartridge is closed
3. Remove the upper brass ring (closure
setting ring). Make sure the control
rod doesn’t rotate.
4. Remove the lower brass ring
(temperature setting ring) and
rotate the brass ring clockwise
to increase temperature or anti-
clockwise to decrease.
5. Reposition the upper ring
in the same position.
6. Test the set temperature. If the
temperature is acceptable, reposition
the handle (section 6.2), the screw
and the top cap otherwise repeat
from step 3 to 6.
10.2 Important notes on debris

12
Version 2, 29 May 2020, 12 of 18
Although this product is protected by built-in filters, debris can still find its way to the thermostat housing area.
This can happen during servicing for example. Remove cartridge (see section 9.2) and carry out an inspection.
10.3 Maintenance cleaning
On a regular basis the anti-splash nozzle should be inspected and cleaned if necessary. This should be done
immediately before sterilising is carried out.
In areas where lime scale build-up is prevalent this will have to be removed. An inhibited proprietary scale
solvent can be used such a kettle descaling solvent, but it is important to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines.
After descaling it is important to rinse the parts thoroughly in clean water. Clean carefully and do not use
abrasive materials or scrapers.
