Pressure Regulating Valve
APPLICATION
The Honeywell Braukmann D06G Valve is a high quality
pressure regulating valve that maintains a constant outlet
pressure over a wide range of inlet supply pressures. It is
ideally suited for potable water and irrigation applications
requiring accurate regulation.
The wide outlet pressure range, high inlet pressure, and
compact design allow flexibility in installation and application.
FEATURES
•Noncorroding unitized cartridge contains all working
parts and is easily replaceable.
•Outlet pressure range from 15 to 130 psi in all models,
inlet rating 400 psi.
•Includes built-in strainer and thermal bypass.
•Narrow design to accommodate restricted installation
requirements.
•Balanced seat construction provides superior
pressure regulation.
•Inlet and outlet are internally threaded NPT, and
externally threaded for use with union assemblies.
•Gauge taps provided on all models.

Water Capacities (See Table 1)
The suitability of a given regulator size is dependent on the
pressure requirements of each installation. To determine the
pressure regulator valve size required for a specific
installation, calculate the following:
Pressure differential between inlet and outlet pressure
in pounds per square inch (psi).
Capacity in gallons per minute (gpm), and
Allowable reduced pressure falloff in psi.
Given these variables, use Table 1 to determine the proper
size pressure regulator valve for your application.
Example: An installation has 135 psi inlet pressure, 60 psi
outlet pressure (75 psi pressure differential). If
30 gpm capacity is required with only 10 psi
falloff allowable, a 1-1/2 in. D06G is required.
This pressure regulator valve allows a flow
capacity up to 46 gpm with a 10 psi falloff at a
no flow pressure differential of 75 psi.
Table 1.Water Capacities.
INSTALLATION
When Installing this Product…
1. Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow them
could damage the product or cause a hazardous
condition.
2. Check the ratings given in these instructions and on the
product to make sure the product is suitable for your
application.
3. Installer must be a trained, experienced service
technician.
4. After installation is complete, check out the product as
provided in these instructions.
Procedure
Flush the system clear of sediment and debris.
Close the supply valve and downstream isolating valve
(if existing).
Install the D06G with the arrow pointing in the direction
of water flow (any mounting orientation is acceptable).
The D06G can be installed directly onto a pipe using
the female NPT threads on each end or by using single
or double unions, if required. (One union is provided.)
CAUTION
Heat from soldering can damage internal parts.
Always remove tailpiece or solder adapter prior
to soldering.
Open the supply valve slowly and open the
downstream valve, if provided.
Check for leaks at connections and correct, if necessary.
Adjusting Outlet Pressure (See Fig. 2)
The D06G is factory set at 60 psi (no flow). Follow this
procedure if adjustment is required:
Close the supply shutoff and open a downstream faucet
to relieve pressure in the line. Remove the gauge plug
and install a pressure gauge. Close the downstream
faucet and open the supply valve.
Loosen the locking screw one turn counterclockwise.
Do not remove the locking screw.
Turn the adjusting knob clockwise to increase pressure
and counterclockwise to decrease pressure. When
decreasing pressure, a slight downstream flow is
necessary to relieve pressure. Turn the knob until the
pressure gauge indicates the desired pressure (no flow
set pressure).
Tighten the locking screw.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Replacing D06G Cartridge
The working parts of the D06G Valve, including diaphragm,
valve seat, strainer, and disk, are all contained in a
replaceable cartridge. To replace the cartridge:
Close the supply valve and relieve the downstream
pressure.
Relieve pressure on the spring by loosening the locking
screw (do not remove) and turning the adjusting knob
counterclockwise until no resistance is felt.
Remove the bonnet (Fig. 3) by using the MT06A1009
or MT06A1017 Service Tool and turning
counterclockwise. Remove the spring and protection
washer (Fig. 4).
Remove the cartridge using two screwdrivers as levers
(Fig. 4). Remove the cartridge O-ring.
Remove the strainer cup (Fig. 5) using the MT06A1009
or MT06A1017 Service Tool.
Remove the strainer and strainer support. Remove the
U-seal.
Clean the inside of the valve and all the components.
NOTE: Replace the U seal (provided in the repair kit)
for a complete cartridge repair.
Replace the U-seal by placing the U-seal on the
strainer support and pushing the assembly into place.
The U-seal open end must face the strainer support
(Fig. 7). Replace the strainer onto the strainer support.
Assemble the strainer cup O-ring onto the strainer cup
and insert the assembly into the body of the valve.Tighten
securely using the service tool. Do not over torque.
쐅Replace the new cartridge ensuring the O-ring is in place.
쐈Replace the protection washer with the lip up (away
from the valve body). See Fig. 6.
쐉Replace the spring and bonnet. Tighten the bonnet
using the service tool. Do not over torque.
씈Adjust the outlet pressure following the procedure in
Adjusting the Outlet Pressure section.

OPERATION
The Honeywell Braukmann D06G Valve is a balanced, direct
acting pressure-regulating valve. It provides constant
downstream pressure regardless of varying inlet pressures
and downstream flow demands.
The spring force holds the valve in the open position until
downstream pressure, sensed by a port, is sufficient to press
on the underside of the diaphragm and close the valve. As
downstream pressure drops due to demand, the force on the
diaphragm is reduced and the valve opens. Adjustment is
made by manually turning the adjustment knob clockwise to
increase the spring force and require a higher downstream
pressure to close the valve. Similarly, reducing the spring
force lowers the outlet set pressure.
When the outlet pressure is set, the D06G automatically
regulates to maintain the downstream pressure.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Table 2 is a troubleshooting guide for the D06G Pressure Regulating Valves.
Table 2.Troubleshooting D06G Pressure Regulating Valves.
Problem Probable Cause Solution
Will not hold pressure or pressure
gradually rises. a) Thermal expansion. b) Debris on valve seat.
c) Damaged valve seat.
a) Install a thermal expansion tank to
limit pressure rise.
b) Clean valve.
c) Replace cartridge.
Frozen. a) Valve exposed to freezing
temperatures below 32°F (0 °C). a) Inspect and replace any damaged components. Move valve to a location
that remains above freezing.
Pressure gauge measures a lower
pressure under flow conditions than
set pressure at no flow.
a) This is normal and characteristic of
direct-acting pressure-reducing valves. a) No action.
Low capacity, low outlet pressure. a) Screen blocked with debris.
b) Valve undersized. a) Clean screen. b) Check capacity versus requirements
and increase valve size.
