CSV2W Installation Instructions
NOTE: Submersible motor manufacturers recommend using a flow inducer sleeve to be
sure the motor is sufficiently cooled at low flows. Pressure differential across the valve
cannot be more than 125 PSI.
Please read all instructions before installation.
1) Be sure that well has been pumped clean before any valve installations. It is also important that all lines including the pump be
flushed clean of debris. Turn off power to pump and drain system.
2) The valve must be installed on the pump side of the pressure tank/pressure switch and all water outlets downstream of the
valve. Flow direction is indicated by the arrow on the valve itself. (Note: There cannot be any water outlets between the pump
and the valve itself. If outlet lines exist between the well and the tank, the valve must be installed at the well head.)
3) The pressure tank should be installed on a tee at a 90° angle to the main discharge line downstream of the of the CSV2. Pressure
switch and other controls must be installed as close to tank as possible. Pressure switch should not be installed directly on the
main line, but on the small line close to the tank. Pre-charge pressure in the tank should be 5-10 psi lower than pressure switch
start point. (See drawing below for set up example)
4) CYCLE STOP VALVE should be tightened using teflon tape on threaded ends. Four to seven wraps of teflon tape is usually
sufficient. All connections should be water tight.
5) Turn stem on CSV2W counterclockwise until it is loosened all the way out. Open a line downstream and turn on pump. Slowly
close lines downstream until demand is approximately 6 to 8 GPM. The CSV2W is adjusted by turning the top bolt clockwise to
increase downstream pressure and counter clockwise to decrease downstream pressure. Adjust the CSV2W until the pressure
steadies at about 10 PSI higher than the desired pressure. Close off downstream water usage. The pressure tank will fill at
approximately 5 GPM. When using a small tank (10 gallons or less of drawdown), set your cut in pressure the same as the valve
pressure. When working with a tank with more than 10 gallons of drawdown, adjust your pressure switch to its highest setting.
Next, set your pressure switch shut off by closing off all water outlets and timing the tank filling. Wait a minimum of 2 minutes
and adjust your pressure switch until the pump is turned off.
* Important: Pressure switch shut off point must always be higher than the pressure regulated by the CSV2W. Actual pressure
switch settings depend on the size of the tank used and minimum run time needed. See reduced pressure fall off chart for
specific pressure /flow information.
