Installation location: [Need to modify to include SWVM brass + Cable Harness] NOTE: Water shutoff valves and leak detection devices should NEVER be installed on a fire suppression system. The Smart Water Valve+Meter must be installed: • • • • • • In a dry, indoor location. Downstream from the main shut-off valve on the desired water supply line. With the control unit located above the brass valve+meter. Use drip loops wherever possible to avoid damaging the electronics in the event of a leak.

Installation Installing the Smart Water Valve+Meter 1. Shut off the water supply line and drain the system. 2. Install the brass valve+meter in the desired water supply line using the appropriate fittings. See “Location” section for information on selecting a suitable installation location. 3. After installing the brass valve+meter, turn the water supply on and ensure there are no leaks originating from the brass or connections to the brass. 4. Connect the actuator to the brass valve+meter.

8. Plug the power supply into the nearest unswitched wall outlet. If possible, create a drip loop in the power cable. Verify that the Smart Water Valve+Meter is on by checking that the “Valve Open” or “Valve Closed” LED is illuminated. If no LEDs are illuminated, try a different power outlet. 9. Manually testing the Smart Water Valve+Meter a. Open a tap or faucet downstream of the Smart Water Valve+Meter. b. Press the “Close” button and wait for the “Valve Closed” LED to turn solid.

it to the network. 3. If Step 2 does not resolve the issue, we recommend installing a Z-Wave Repeater nearby and performing a Z-Wave network rediscovery. TIP: Any wall powered Z-Wave device will act as a Repeater and improve the range between the Z-Wave Controller and the Z-Wave device you are installing. Removing the Smart Water Valve+Meter from the Z-Wave network: TIP: For best results, we recommend bringing the Z-Wave controller into the area where the Smart Water Valve+Meter is installed. 1.
