Model 3300-0102 & 3300-0103 High Flow
Balanced Pressure Regulator Valves
Installation & Operation Instructions
Form L-1523
11/09
Installation
As a relief valve, this valve should be placed in an area that remains pressurized when the gun is shut off.
As a pressure regulator, the valve maintains the pressure in the system (even during flow changes). In this condition,
always use a suitable safety valve. If the bypass is directed directly into the pump, caution should be taken to avoid
excessive water temperature increases.
Operation
IMPORTANT:
The bypass port is at the bottom. The inlet port is on the side.
The bypass should be returned to a baffled tank for turbulence control.
Pressure Adjustment/Setting
As a relief valve, the adjustment has to be made in such a way that the pressure setting is not higher than the system’s
working pressure.
As a pressure regulator, adjust the valve when the system is pressurized and the gun is open. As the adjustment cap is
turned, there should be a corresponding change in pressure. To increase the pressure, turn the cap clockwise; to
decrease the pressure, turn the cap counterclockwise. Once the desired pressure is reached, tighten the ring nut to lock
the cap in place.
