Automatic Anti-Siphon Valve
Models: 2711DPR & 2713DPR
The 711DPR and 713DPR are combination angle and anti-siphon valves with a flow adjustment screw, and can be operated electrically or manually.
In areas where freezing conditions occur, make provisions for draining the system. Use a stop and waste shut-off valve installed on the main line feeding the sprinkler system. To assure complete drainage of the valves after the water supply is shut off, electrically energize each valve for at least a few minutes (dry run). This vents the upper cavity of the valve, allowing maximum drainage.
Although valve is rated to 150 psi, where local pressure exceeds 80 psi a pressure regulator should be used. It is advisable to use a regulator with any automatic valve to assure long life as well as uniform and controllable operation.
The anti-siphon valve should be installed at least 6" above the surrounding ground and above a sufficient number of heads so at no time will the anti-siphon valve be subject to back pressure or drainage. There must not be any valve downstream of the anti-siphon valve.
Step 1: Flush the line thoroughly before installing the valve. Use Teflon pipe tape on male threads. Do not use pipe dope on the pipe to valve connections.
Step 2: Screw the valve onto the supply pipe threads hand tight. Use a wrench only to straighten the valve into position.
Step 3: Screw the outlet pipe into the valve with a wrench, hold the valve by hand as the outlet pipe is tightened.
Step 4: Wiring to the valves can be placed underground alongside the pipes. Use approved under ground type wire and be sure all splices are soldered or joined with wire nuts and sealed with vinyl cement or other suitable water-proofing cement. Run one common wire to each location to serve all the valves at that location. Use 18 gauge solid wire plastic jacketed thermostat control wire for runs not over 800 feet and 14 gauge over 800 feet. This wire is available from your dealer in 2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8 color coded wires. Connect the solenoid to a timer that uses an approved class 2, 24V transformer as a power source.
Step 5: Turn the white flow control screw clockwise until it seats, closing the valve. Turn the water supply on. The valve will remain closed.
Step 6: Turn the black manual bleed screw know counterclockwise. This will allow water to flow through the valve as the flow control is backed out; adjust the flow control for desired flow. Tighten the manual bleed screw and the valve will close.
