Orbit Jar Top Bedienungsanleitung

Installation Instructions
Install the valve in seven easy steps—
1. Attach the Valves
2. Attach Sprinkler Lines
3. Run the Wire
4. Attach the Wire
1. Attach the Valves
After flushing lines, install the valve to
the manifold with an adapter or nipple
(adapter or nipple not required for Male
Jar-Top valve). DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
Do not use pipe joining compound.
Use thread seal tape only. Note arrow
for water flow direction. Valves have
tapered fittings and therefore require
seven to eight turns of thread seal
tape to prevent leaking and to guard
against the connections bottoming out.
To prevent possible leaking, make sure
that the manifold and pipe are properly
aligned.
2. Attach Sprinkler Lines
Attach sprinkler lines to valve with an
adapter (adapter or nipple not required
for Male Jar-Top valve).
RECOMMENDATION:
Use Orbit's Pre-Assembled Manifold to
make the valve easier to service or for
future manifold modifications.
3. Run the Wire
With the power off, connect the valves
to a an Orbit timer (or any other timer
®
that uses a UL-approved 24-volt Class
2 transformer as a power source). Use
a multi-colored, multi-strand approved
jacketed sprinkler wire. Be sure the
wire has at least one more strand than
the number of valves in the manifold.
Run the wire to the valves (usually in
the same trench as the sprinkler pipe).
RECOMMENDATION:
Use a piece of PVC pipe as a protective
covering for sprinkler wire in areas of
frequent digging.
Draining
In freezing areas, the valves and lines will need to be drained.
Refer to the Orbit Layout Guide or local dealer to recommend proper drain points.
To insure the electric valve is completely drained in the fall, turn off the main
sprinkler shut-off valve and electrically run each valve dry for a few minutes. Turn
timer to the "OFF" position.
CAUTIONS:
Check local codes for valve types and
•
permit information.
If static water pressure exceeds
•
552KPa, a pressure regulator should
be used.
For outdoor use with cold water only.
•
Not for indoor use. Place valves so
they drain away from the house.
Troubleshooting for Inline Valves
It is rare that your Orbit low voltage electric valve will not operate as it should.
®
If you do have any problems, try the following solutions.
Problem: The valve will not open electrically
First, run the valve manually by opening the manual bleed lever/screw (turn
counter-clockwise). Close the manual bleed lever/screw when manual test is
complete.
Check if... Solution
1. The valve is installed Make sure that the arrows are in the direction of
incorrectly water flow.
2. Wiring is incorrect Check wiring at the valve and at the timer with
the instructions Check to see that timer is
working properly.
3. There is debris Turn off water. Remove the solenoid.
in the port hole Push a wire or large paper clip down through the
round port hole working it up and down to free
any debris. Be sure the plunger and O-ring are in
place when reassembling.
4. Defective solenoid Turn off water. Unscrew the solenoid and replace
with one from a working valve. If the valve works,
replaces the solenoid. Be sure the plunger and
O-ring are in place when reassembling.
5. Solenoid plunger Turn off water. Remove the solenoid and clean out
is stuck sand and debris. Be sure the plunger and O-ring
are in place when reassembling.
Problem: The valve will not close
Check if... Solution
1. The valve is installed Make sure that the arrows are in the direction of
incorrectly water flow.
2. Solenoid plunger is stuck Turn off water. Remove the solenoid and clean
out sand and debris. Be sure the plunger and
O-ring are in place when reassembling.
3. Rock or debris is Turn off water. Remove valve lid and diaphragm
between the washer and assembly and clean the interior of the valve.
the valve seat
4. Diaphragm has ruptured Turn off water. Remove the lid and inspect the
diaphragm for tears. Replace the diaphragm
assembly if torn.
Problem: External valve leaks
Check if... Solution
1. PVC fittings going into Use thread seal tape generously on threads and
valve installed incorrectly tighten firmly. Do not over tighten.
2. Pressure is too high Install a pressure regulator upstream of the valve
and set at about 552KPa.
3. Leaking below solenoid Turn off water. Tighten solenoid.

5. Close the Sprinkler Valves
6. Test the System
7. Open the Valves
4. Attach the Wire
Attach a colored wire to one valve wire
on the solenoid and a common wire
to the other wire on the solenoid. It
doesn't matter which solenoid wire
you use as the common. Attach the
colored wires to the corresponding zone
terminal in the timer and the common
wire to the common connection in the
timer. Use standard 20 gauge sprinkler
wire for distances less than 244 m. Use
18 gauge wire for distances over 244 m.
Use an Orbit grease cap and wire nut
®
at each valve connection (See Figure
A ). Also, waterproof any splices made
along the sprinkler wire.
5. Close the Sprinkler Valves
Turn the manual bleed lever clockwise
until closed. When the water is turned
on, the valve will remain closed.
6. Test the System
After all pipe and fittings have been
installed, turn the water supply on and
check for leaks with the valves closed.
7. Open the Valves
Turn the manual bleed lever/screw
counterclockwise to manually open
the valve. Then close the manual bleed
lever/screw to shut the valve off. The
system is now ready to be controlled
electrically from the timer or manually
by opening the manual lever/screw.
NOTES:
Where possible, always protect valves
•
with an Orbit Valve Box and place
gravel in the bottom.
Test all lines and fittings before
•
burying the system.
Use a filter if you will not be using
•
culinary water in your system.
