How does a Sloan valve operate?
” A Sloan valves works by equalizing pressure in the chambers over and under the diaphragm. Basically, the water will run until the top chamber is filled. This is the ‘flow timing;’ you can adjust the timing with a ‘flow-ring.’ A flow-ring is the plastic ring directly under the diaphragm. Sloan and Zurn both make flow rings in 1.0, 1.6, 3.5 and 4.5 gallons per flush designations. Note: PlumbingWorld.com sells Sloan products and is not the manufacturer. All warranties are handled with the manufacturer.
