PureT USA (LSV-14EZ-WB) Safeguard Leak Detector and Shut-Off Valve
This unique Leak Protector by PureT not only detects leaks, it also shuts off flow to a drinking water system in the event a leak should occur. This unique device is a small up-front investment, designed to eliminate possible damage to homes and business property.
The patented device is novel, but quite simple. When a leak occurs, the adsorbent applicator tablet expands to close the valve and shut off the incoming water supply. Two tablets are included with each Leak Protector, and replacement tablets are available, packaged two per pack.
Maximum operating pressure = 100 psi
Maximum ambient humidity = 70%
Valve Installation:
- Turn off the water supply to the filtration system at the cold water source valve.
- The leak detector should be mounted flat in the lowest ground point near the filtration system so in the event a leak occurs the water will flow in the direction of the valve.
- Clean the designated installation area with rubbing alcohol.
- Peel the red backing tape from the two mounting feet on the base of the shut off valve and press down firmly over the chosen install area. You may also mount the valve using the screws included in the kit.
- Cut the systems water supply tube to splice in the valve. Connect the tubing from the water source valve to the horizontal fitting on the shut off valve labeled “in” by pushing the tubing in firmly until fully seated.
- Turn on the water supply to the filtration unit and check for leaks.
Replacing the tablet:
- Turn off the water supply at the cold water valve.
- Using a Phillips screwdriver, loosen and remove screw from the top of the valve.
- Twist the upper white assembly counter clockwise, lift up and remove old tablet.
- Make sure the valve and the surrounding area is dry before replacing the tablet.
- Insert the new applicator tablet into the clear plastic housing.
- Replace the upper white cap onto the clear plastic base by twisting it clockwise until seated.
- Replace Phillips screw and tighten (do not over tighten as this may damage the valve unit).
- Turn on the water supply to the filtration unit and check for leaks.
