Regal SMARTVALVES - User Manual

As population increases, municipal water and wastewater
treatment facilities must also increase in size in order to supply
and treat the greater demand for water. As the plants increase
in size, so do the distribution and piping systems carrying this
water to and from the population. These piping systems cover
many, many miles making it difficult to maintain suitable
disinfection and stable residuals using manual chlorine and
sulfur dioxide gas feed systems.
The REGAL SMARTVALVES™ discussed in this bulletin
solve the problem whenever varying water flows and/or
varying water quality need to be controlled accurately and
automatically providing the correct ratio of chemical to
water at all times. NO WASTED CHEMICAL.
These REGAL
SMARTVALVES include an integral dedicated controller which
can be configured for Flow Proportional, Residual, Compound
Loop or Feed Forward Dechlorination control schemes.

IMPORTANT NOTES
WARNINGS
INSTRUCTION BULLETIN 17009/17010
1. This equipment is suitable for use only with the gases specified.
DO NOT USE THIS EQUIPMENT WITH OTHER GASES. Such
use can result in failures having hazardous consequences.
2. This equipment is designed FOR VACUUM SERVICE ONLY.
3. To insure proper and safe operation of this equipment, use only
REGAL parts. The use of non-REGAL parts can result in equip-
ment failures having hazardous consequences and voids the
REGAL warranty and insurance coverage.
4. Maintenance should be performed by competent personnel
familiar with this type of equipment, such as Chlorinators
Incorporated themselves.
5. It is essential that all external wiring be done exactly as shown
on the wiring diagrams depicted in this manual. Incorrect wiring
or improper grounding of this equipment WILL cause improper
operation and presents a safety hazard.
6. Field wiring MUST conform to national and local electrical codes.
7. DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE removing the cover or
servicing this equipment.
8. ALWAYS make sure that the cover is in place and securely
fastened to prevent the entry of moisture, water, or corrosive
gases and also to eliminate the potential for electric shock.
9. Any equipment powered by AC line voltage presents a potential
shock hazard. Installation and servicing of this equipment
should only be attempted by qualified electronics technicians.
10. This non-metallic enclosure DOES NOT automatically provide
grounding between the conduit connections. Grounding MUST
be provided as part of the installation.
11. Damage to the circuit boards or internal components incurred
by drilling the enclosure for field wiring or connecting power
lines to low voltage signal terminals voids the warranty.
12. Changing parameter settings and selections WILL affect the
operation of this equipment. If unsure, consult Chlorinators
Incorporated BEFORE changing parameters or selections.
