1.0 MEANING OF SIGNAL WORDS
A safety related message is identified by a safety alert symbol and a signal word to indicate the level of risk involved with a
particular hazard. Per ANSI standard Z535.6-2006, the definitions of the four signal words are as follows:
DANGER DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious
injury.
WARNING WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
CAUTION CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor
or moderate injury.
NOTICE NOTICE is used to address practices not related to personal injury.
2.0 SAFETY
DANGER Do not use AC current to operate the Ball Intake Valve RC or the Jumbo Ball Intake Valve
RC. The Ball Intake Valve RC and the Jumbo Ball Intake Valve RC are 12 or 24VDC systems
ONLY! Using the wrong power source could cause electrocution, resulting in death or serious
injury.
WARNING Injury or death can result from burst hoses and fittings. Be sure the pressure relief valve is set
at the proper pressure for the type of hose and equipment you are using. See NFPA 1961 and
NFPA 1962.
WARNING Injury or death may occur by attempting to use a damaged Ball Intake Valve. Before using the
valve inspect it for damage resulting from:
• Failure to drain valve followed by exposure to freezing conditions
• Exposure to temperatures in excess of 160 degrees F
• Missing parts, physical abuse
WARNING This equipment is intended for use by trained personnel for firefighting. Its use for other
purposes may involve hazards not addressed by this manual. See appropriate guidance and
training to reduce risk of injury.
WARNING Kinks in supply hose may reduce water flow and cause injury or death to persons dependant
on water flow. When this valve is used on a hydrant or fire truck it is recommended that it be
used with an elbow to minimize risk of hoseline kinks.
CAUTION The electric Ball Intake Valve RC and the Jumbo Ball Intake Valve RC may be remotely operated.
The electric drives are current limited but may still produce enough force to cause injury. Keep
hands and fingers away from pinch points on the valve.
CAUTION Do not use the manual override hand wheel while the electric controls are in operation. The
electric drives produce enough torque to cause injury.
CAUTION The Ball Intake Valve RC and the Jumbo Ball Intake Valve RC have current limiting capabilities
which stops the motor if an obstruction is encountered. The Ball Intake Valve RC and the
Jumbo Ball Intake Valve RC must be installed as instructed using the correct controls and
electrical boxes. Failure to do so will result in damage to the electric motor and loss of current
limiting controls. This may result in injury.
CAUTION Maximum operating pressure for the Ball Intake Valve models 300 PSI (20 bar). Do not exceed
300 PSI on either side of the Ball Intake Valve. Maximum operating pressure for Jumbo Ball
Intake Valve models 250 PSI (17 bar). Do not exceed 250 PSI on either side of the Jumbo Ball
Intake Valve.
CAUTION Valve must be properly connected. Mismatched or damaged connectors may cause leaking or
uncoupling under pressure and could cause injury.
CAUTION The Ball Intake Valve may become damaged if it is allowed to freeze while containing water.
Always drain after use to avoid damage and possible loss of use.

3.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
The Ball Intake Valve and the Jumbo Ball Intake Valve are intended for use on the intake manifold of a fire engine. The valve is
kept closed while the water supply from a hydrant or another pumper to the engine is being established. This prevents the pump
from sucking air through the intake manifold and losing its prime. Once the supply hose is filled and under pressure, and the air has
been vented from the hose, the valve may be opened to connect the pump to the water supply. An adjustable pressure relief valve
mounted on the bottom of the valve opens to relieve any excess pressure that may damage the hose or the pump.An electric remote
controlled (RC) model allows the valve to be operated from a remote location. A typical installation will consist of the BIV RC and a
remote display operator station. Motor controls are designed to auto sense 12 VDC or 24 VDC operation. The motor control circuit
utilizes a position encoder and current limiting to protect the drive train at the ends of travel. Unit is supplied with 2’ of cable with a
plug on BIV RC and 10’ of cable with a receptacle so installation effort is minimized. Cable has only four conductors (two for power
and two for communications) further easing installation effort. To complete the installation, the installer will need to mount and wire
the remote display operator station. The power supply for the BIV RC will need to be connected to a protected circuit from the trucks
power distribution center. Refer to the specifications section 3.1 for nominal current draw.

3.2 CORROSION
Hose couplings are attached using polymer bearing rings which provides electrical insulation to help prevent galvanic corrosion. The
parts are then hard anodized, and finally powder coated, inside and out, to help prevent corrosion. The effects of corrosion can be
minimized by good maintenance practice. See section 10.0 for maintenance.
3.3 USE WITH SALT WATER
Use with salt water is permissible provided valve is thoroughly cleaned with fresh water after each use. The service life of the valve
may be shortened due to the effects of corrosion and is not covered under warranty.

4.4 ELECTRICAL TESTING
VERIFY PROPER VOLTAGE
The TFT Ball Intake Valve RC has built in circuit protection to guard against a circumstance where the unit’s movement is blocked
before reaching its full travel limits. Without this circuitry the motor would stall, overheat, and could be permanently damaged.
IMPORTANT - When mechanical installation and electrical connections are complete, perform the following test to verify voltage
supply is adequate and the current limiting feature is functioning.
Apply power to Valve Control.1. Press OPEN or CLOSE button and hold until valve reaches stop position. Continue to hold button down.2. Once movement is stopped, manually turn override knob in opposite direction while continuing to hold button3. down. If knob can be turned, then voltage supply is adequate. If knob can’t be turned and motor continues
to operate, then the current limit was not reached because the voltage supply or wiring is not adequate.
NOTE: Override knob will only turn in one direction.
To ensure proper voltage to the Ball Intake Valve RC, the wiring needs to be checked for proper gauge for the installed length of
wire, and for proper termination. Also, ensure that the power source supplying the BIV RC and the grounding are adequate (other
electrical loads on a shared circuit with the BIV RC may cause a low-voltage situation).
In addition to motor damage, a further consequence of low voltage could be that the valve will not open or close properly or fully.
SET TRAVEL STOPS
When proper voltage is verified, perform the following to set the full travel limits.
Apply power to Valve Control.1. Press CLOSE button and continue to hold until valve is fully closed. Motor must stop by current limit method. If motor continues2. to operate see proper voltage section above.
Press OPEN button and continue to hold until valve is fully open. Motor must stop by current limit method. If motor continues3. to operate see proper voltage section above.
Position indicator lights will now track valve movement.4.

ASSEMBLY
The handwheel is shipped from the factory on the right hand side of the valve. The hand wheel can be switched to the left hand side
for convenience or if it interferes with other equipment on the pump panel.
To move the handwheel to the opposite side, remove the retaining ring on the end of the shaft. Pull the shaft out of the gear box. As
the shaft is withdrawn, grasp the small key on the shaft so it does not get lost. Remove and switch the two plastic bushings that come
out of the sides of the gearbox. The bushing with the large hole is installed on the same side as the handwheel.
Look through the gear box and note approximate position of the keyway in the worm inside the gear box. Slide the shaft into the
gearbox on the opposite side of the gear box with the key oriented the same as the keyway. A small dab of grease will keep the key
place. Rotate the shaft until the key finds the keyway and push the shaft in until it stops. Reinstall the retaining ring. Do not over
expand the retaining ring.

4.7 BALL INTAKE VALVE RC MANUAL OVERRIDE
The Ball Intake Valve RC is motor driven but also has an
override handwheel for operating the valve manually. The
override handwheel may also be used in the event of power
failure. If electrical power is supplied to the control panel then
the LED valve position display will track the valve’s position as
the handwheel is moved. If the handwheel is moved while there
is no power to the electric controls than the LED valve position
display will be in error when the electric power is reconnected.
The LED valve position indicator will self correct the first time the
valve is cycled under electric control.
If more compactness is desired the override handwheel may be
removed. The drive shaft has a hex so a wrench or socket may
be used for manual override. If the manual override handwheel
is removed assure that the correct size wrench of socket is
available in the event of power failure.

6.0 AIR VENT AND WATER DRAIN
The BIV and Jumbo BIV come with anAir Vent/Drain situated on the side of the PRV pad. The BIV has a second plugged port on the
opposite side of the pad. An additional port on both the BIV and Jumbo BIV is located along side of the gearbox. To use a different
port position, relocate the factory supplied drain valve or install an additional drain valve. If the Air Vent/Drain is being relocated,
use a ¾”NPT plug to seal the empty port.The barb fitting must be removed from theAir Vent/Drain body to install and replaced once
the Air Vent/Drain body is tightened.
7.0 PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
CAUTION Loss of prime can interrupt water flow and cause injury or death. Always bleed out air with air
valve to prevent possible loss of prime.
If there is a pressure relief valve on the bottom side of the valve. It may be set to any pressure between 50 and 200 psi. Its function
is to protect the pump and the supply hose from excess pressure. The relief valve may be mounted with its opening facing the front,
back, right or left. A piece of hose or tubing may be mounted on the round spout to direct the water coming out of the relief valve
away from the pump panel. To change the orientation of the relief valve, remove the four 7/16 bolts on the corners of the relief valve
flange, orient the valve the way you want it, and replace the bolts. Use a drop of thread locking compound on the threads of the bolt
to prevent them from coming loose.
7.1 RELIEF VALVE SETTING PRESSURE
To set the relief valve pressure turn the adjusting screw on the relief valve housing until the surface of the screw is even with
the desired pressure. A 9/16” (14mm) socket or a 1/4” Allen wrench may be used to turn the adjusting screw. Do not cap or plug
discharge opening.

parts
Binding, Erratic operation Low Voltage (see below) See Below
Power LED on but no operation Low voltage due to:
-wire gage too small
-wire length too long
-poor connection
-inadequate apparatus electrical system
Checkconnections andwiring persection

LED D6 on motor board blinks
rapidly when button is pressed Loose encoder connection Replace Motor Sub Assembly
Bad motor encoder Replace Motor Sub Assembly
No Power LED Polarity reversed or poor connection Check wiring and correct polarity
OPEN & CLOSE LED blink every

10.0 MAINTENANCE
This valve should be disconnected, cleaned and visually inspected inside and out at least twice annually, or as water quality and
use may require. Moving parts such as hand wheels, valve ball and couplings should be checked for smooth and free operation.
Seals shall be greased as needed with a Silicone based grease such as Dow Corning 112.Any scrapes that expose bare aluminum
should be cleaned and touched up with enamel paint such as Rust-Oleum. Replace any missing or damaged parts before returning
valve to service.
CAUTION Dissimilar metals coupled together can cause galvanic corrosion that can result in the inability
to unscrew the threads of complete loss of thread engagement over time. Per NFPA 1962
(1998 edition), if dissimilar metals are left coupled together an anti-corrosive lubricant should
be applied to the threads. Also the coupling should be disconnected and inspected at least
quarterly.

13.0 WARRANTY
Task Force Tips, Inc., 3701 Industrial Way, Valparaiso, Indiana 46383-9327 USA (“TFT”) warrants to the original purchaser of its
Ball Intake Valve and Ball Intake Valve RC (“equipment”), and to anyone to whom it is transferred, that the equipment shall be free
from defects in material and workmanship during the five (5) year period from the date of purchase.
TFT’s obligation under this warranty is specifically limited to replacing or repairing the equipment (or its parts) which are shown by
TFT’s examination to be in a defective condition attributable to TFT. To qualify for this limited warranty, the claimant must return
the equipment to TFT, at 3701 Industrial Way, Valparaiso, Indiana 46383-9327 USA, within a reasonable time after discovery of
the defect. TFT will examine the equipment. If TFT determines that there is a defect attributable to it, TFT will correct the problem
within a reasonable time. If the equipment is covered by this limited warranty, TFT will assume the expenses of repair.
If any defect attributable to TFT under this limited warranty cannot be reasonably cured by repair or replacement, TFT may elect to
refund the purchase price of the equipment, less reasonable depreciation, in complete discharge of its obligations under this limited
warranty. If TFT makes this election, claimant shall return the equipment to TFT free and clear of any liens and encumbrances.
This is a limited warranty. The original purchaser of the equipment, any person to whom it is transferred, and any person who is
an intended or unintended beneficiary of the equipment, shall not be entitled to recover from TFT any consequential or incidental
damages for injury to person and/or property resulting from any defective equipment manufactured or assembled by TFT. It is
agreed and understood that the price stated for the equipment is in part consideration for limiting TFT’s liability. Some states do not
allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above may not apply to you.
TFT shall have no obligation under this limited warranty if the equipment is, or has been, misused or neglected (including failure to
provide reasonable maintenance) or if there have been accidents to the equipment or if it has been repaired or altered by someone
else.
THIS IS A LIMITED EXPRESS WARRANTY ONLY. TFT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO THE EQUIPMENT
ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THERE IS NO WARRANTY OF ANY NATURE MADE BY TFT BEYOND THAT STATED IN THIS DOCUMENT.
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
