INSPECT WATER INLET WITH THERMOSTAT SUB-ASSEMBLY
Tech Tips
The valve opening temperature is inscribed on the water inlet with thermostat sub-assembly.
Immerse the water inlet with thermostat sub-assembly in water and then gradually heat the water.
Check the valve opening temperature of the water inlet with thermostat sub-assembly.
| Standard valve opening temperature |
|---|
| 80 to 84°C (176 to 183°F) |
If the valve opening temperature is not as specified, replace the water inlet with thermostat sub-assembly.
| *a | Valve Lift |
Check the valve lift.
| Standard valve lift |
|---|
| 8.0 mm (0.315 in.) or more at 95°C (203°F) |
If the valve lift is not as specified, replace the water inlet with thermostat sub-assembly.
Check that the valve is fully closed when the water inlet with thermostat sub-assembly is at a low temperature (below 77°C (171°F)).
If not fully closed, replace the water inlet with thermostat sub-assembly.
