INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
464, 424 & 324 POST-MIX VALVES
The Flomatic valves are available in manual, electric,
portion control and automatic fill models. All Flomatic
valves share the same mounting and flow control char-
acteristics. The 324 valves are also compatible with
the 300-Q mounting block. Those instructions are not
included here.
MOUNTING BLOCK
Prior to installation determine which mounting block
you need. The Flomatic mounting block kit 5007842
has inlet "O" rings sized for both inlet port sizes
(located at the rear of the block) port. Sized at 0.380
inches is compatible with most current mounting block
inlet fittings.
INSTALLATION / REPLACEMENT
Be sure to relieve system pressure prior to beginning
work. When replacing most other brand valves with
the Flomatic valve, remove the existing mounting
block and install the appropriate Flomatic mounting
block. This is an easy first step – just align the four bolt
holes and mount. The Flomatic mounting blocks have
a positive shut off and mounting system to prevent
accidental removal while the system is pressurized.
The valve cannot be removed unless the shut-off
valves are in the closed position (arrows pointed
across the service line).
The hole pattern for most current valves will have key
slots for the product supply lines. Some older valve
mountings may require the use of the "S" clip 2 to hold
the product supply lines in place (available as an
option).

TROUBLE SHOOTING Occasionally, the valve will not perform as desired. Here are some helpful hints: BRIX: Reset the flow rate and re-brix the valve. Look for foreign matter in the adjustment screws, flow controls or pallet seats. Sometimes if a system is not flushed completely at startup, foreign particles, etc.
