FAQ

Q: What is the recommended installation position for the Zurn 212-500XL3?

A: The Wilkins 212-500XL3 may be installed in any position—horizontal or vertical—providing flexibility for various piping configurations in commercial and industrial settings.

Q: When should multiple pressure reducing valves be installed in series?

A: Multiple installations in series are required when the desired pressure reduction is more than 3 to 1 ratio (e.g., 150 PSI inlet reduced to 50 PSI outlet). A low flow bypass may be needed for flows under 10 GPM at higher reduction ratios.

Q: What certifications does the Zurn 212-500XL3 carry?

A: The valve is ASSE Listed 1003, cUPC Listed, CSA Certified B356, and meets NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 & 372 requirements for safe use in potable water systems.
