pression and Quick-Connect fitting ther mo stat ic mix ing valves
maintain and limit hot water to desired se lect able temperature
between 80°F and 120°F (27°C and 49°C) with flow rates as low
as 0.5 gpm (1.9 lpm) and as high as 2.25 gpm (8.5 lpm). The
mix ing valve is listed to ASSE Standard 1070 for sin gle fix ture
applications and IAPMO cUPC. The LFUSG-B-M2 features Lead
Free* construction to comply with Lead Free* installation require-
ments. The su pe ri or flow char ac ter is tics of these valves provide
tem per a ture con trol with low pres sure drop. As an add ed fea-
ture, the LFUSG-B -M2 in cor po rates dual check valves to pro tect
against cross-flow and integral screens to filter out debris.
Features
• Lead Free* Brass body construction
• Installs easily between the stop valves and faucet
• Includes tamper resistant locking nut to prevent accidental mis-
adjustment
• Built-in check valves prevent migration of hot water to cold and
cold water to hot water piping
• Provided with cap for three port application
• Integral strainer with 40 mesh stainless steel screens to filter
out debris
Applications
The unit is intended for under sink installation to con trol the hot
water temperature and minimize the occurrence of ac ci den tal
scald ing. The water temperature must be adjusted by the in stall-
er using a thermometer to measure the hot water tem per a ture
at the faucet outlet. Maximum tem per a ture of 105°F (41°C) is
recommended.
