Installation
Troubleshooting Thermostatic Mixing Valve
Before attempting to troubleshoot the valve or disassemble the
components, check for the following:
• Stop/check valves are fully open (the slotted stem
extends approximately 1/2" from the stem nut) and that
all inlet and outlet shut-off valves are open
• Hot and cold inlet pipes are connected properly, and
that there are no cross-connectio ns or leaking stop/
check valves
• Water heater output is at least 20° F above the set
temperature.
Be sure to close the appropriate shut-off valves
prior to disassembly of the valve and reopen the
valves after inspection and repair is complete.
Problem
External leaks in the system Either the NPT joints or the o-rings have been damaged.
No hot water flow (cold water The thermostat has failed and, subsequently, the safety
flow only) shut-off has engaged.
Limited water flow The inlet shut-off valve may be partially closed or there
has been a significant decrease in water pressure.
Dirt and debris have collected on the check screen or
seat, limiting the movement of the stop and checks.
Temperature fluctuation or The stop and check sections of the valve do not move
improper Temperature freely.
Thermostat is slowly failing.
Inlet supply line to the mixing valve is being shared by
other pieces of equipment that are used only periodically,
such as laundry appliances or washdown stations. It may
reduce the inlet pressure to the mixing valve to less than
3 PSI. The supply line size may not be large enough to
supply both the valve and the other appliances.
Recirculation is not balanced.
Piston does not move freely and must be cleaned.

Cause
Replace the NPT joints and/or o-rings where necessary. For replacement
of o-rings, contact your Bradley representative and ask for O-Ring Seal Kit
(S65-170).
Inspect Thermostat:
Clean Stop and check Valves:
Remove the stop and checks, clean the seat and reassemble the valve. Do
not remove the seat. The components may be brushed with a small wire
brush to remove debris. A pair of tweezers works well for pulling debris
out from the seat. If the stop and checks need to be replaced, contact your
Bradley representative and ask for Check/Stop Kit (S27-102-Rough Brass, or
S27-292A-Chrome).
Clean Stop and Check Valves as described above.
Check Thermostat as described above, or replace.
Enlarge the supply line size, reconfigure the supply line or regulate the supply
usage.
Review recirculation set up on page 6.
See next page for piston disassembly and cleaning directions.

5/16" Push
Rod
Solution
1. Remove the top cap and thermostat.
2. Insert the 5/16" dia. push rod into the thermostat bellows.
3. Mark the length the push rod extends into the bellows (at room
temperature, with 10 lb. of force. the length should be approx. 15/16"
– 1-3/16").
4. If the push rod length is not in the proper range, the thermostat
must be replaced (it cannot be repaired). Contact your Bradley
representative and ask for Thermostat Kit (S65-171).
