6. INSTALLATION
The RBC 7000 timer has a 3/4 in. inlet and outlet with
female pipe thread so it can be installed directly onto
3/4 in. PVC male pipe thread fittings as part of a sprinkler
valve manifold or as a stand-alone unit. (Figure 1)
OR
The RBC 7000 timer can be attached to a hose or faucet/
spigot using the two adapters that are included with the
timer. (Figure 7)
Warning: Wrap all pipe thread fittings with Teflon tape.
Do not use pipe dope/pipe cement on valve! This will
damage the valve and void the warranty!
ATTENTION: PLEASE NOTE THE DIRECTION OF THE
VALVE WHEN INSTALLING. THE SOLENOID AND TIMER MOUNT IS POSITIONED
TOWARDS THE OUTLET SIDE OF THE VALVE.
IN-LINE INSTALLATION
Rated operating pressure: 10-125 PSI
Recommended Operating Pressure:
10-80 PSI
1. Shut off main water supply.
2. Install a 3/4 in. ball or gate valve onto the PVC pipe
or to the valve manifold before installing the timer (Figure 2 and 3). This valve can
be very useful as an emergency
backup to turn the system off. This
type of arrangement is used by
professional installers.
3. Turn water supply on to flush the line
and then shut the water off using the
ball or gate valve.
4. Install the timer wrapping Teflon
tape on all male pipe thread fittings.
