Before installing this product – Pegler recommend the reading of this document
thoroughly and leaving it with the user for future reference.
Introduction
The PERFORMA 870-2 self closing non concussive basin pillar tap valves use a limescale
resistance cartridge which gives many years of trouble free service. The piston operated
cartridge controls the flow of water from a minimum of 0.2 bar to a maximum 3.0 bar. Should
you have any problems or technical queries with either of these products please telephone
0870 1200285, or fax us on 01302 560537.
Water Regulation Requirements
It is important to ensure that the water supplies to your taps and mixers are connected in
accordance with the water regulations (WRAS) requirements and good plumbing practice.
This product has been designed to function on all types of water system.
Please Note: If a pump is to be installed to boost gravity supplies please refer to the pump
manufacturers instructions.
Pipe Connections
IMPORTANT. Before making any inlet pipe connections all supplies MUST be thoroughly
flushed to remove any debris. Failure to do so could result in damage or low flow from
the valves. It is a requirement of Byelaw 55 of the Water Fittings Byelaw Scheme that this
function is undertaken before making any pipe connections to supplies. It is also Pegler’s
recommendation and good plumbing practice that a service valve also (Pegler PB300)
should be installed upstream in the inlet supply lines and appropriate filters inline before the
terminal fitting.
The tap are supplied with ½” BSP inlet.
To reduce pressure to the optimum level we also recommend the use of a Pegler Pressure
Reducing Valve. For use on pressures between 1.1/2 bar to 5.1/2 bar - product code 5A2001
for ½” pipe or 5A2002 for ¾” pipe.
General Installation Notes
• Care must be taken during installation to prevent any risk of damage to the product or
injury to installer.
• Installation must be carried out by a qualified and competent person and in accordance with the instructions supplied.
• Installations must comply with all Local and National Water Authority Regulations, and
Building/Plumbing Regulations.
• Please ensure that you have read and understood all sections of this manual before
installation.
• Please ensure no soldering occurs near the tap. Any soldering required should be done
before the valve is installed as any heat generated can damage the cartridge and seals.
• It is also Pegler Yorkshire’s recommendations that in-line filters are installed to the valves
Isolation valves near to the valves are also recommended to allow individual isolation for
servicing and maintenance.

Pre-Installation Checks
• Ensure that there is sufficient space to install the product without hampering its
operation.
• Ensure all pipe work has been thoroughly flushed before any installation takes place.
Installation of Basin Pillar Tap 870-2
Please note: The 870-2 is a single tap for use on either hot or cold water (red and blue
indice supplied)
1. Determine the position of the basin tap allowing sufficient space around the tap for it to
be used without hindrance or harm to the user.
2. Fit tap through hole in ware/worktop and ensuring ‘O’ ring sealing washer is between
base of tap and surface, tighten backnut below ware (Note a suitable hole/slot must be
made to accommodate the rotational pin) See template below. Or alternatively remove
the pin from the base of the tap. Grips and a sharp pull should remove this.
The drawing is to scale and can be used as a template if necessary.
3. Route supply pipework to basin tap and flush pipework thoroughly.
4. Connect supply pipework to inlet of tap ensuring that the filter supplied with the product
is fitted in-line. Next depress the button for 2-3 minutes see water wash through then clear
away any remaining debris in the pipework.
5.
6.
Disconnect and check filter if thought it is necessary.
With final installed tap depress button once more and check time/delay, flow and self
closing action is functioning correctly. See time adjustment and flow adjustment
sections for detail on how to change the factory set positions.
Time Adjustment: If the time delay factory set is not acceptable then it can be can be
adjusted to a maximum 22 seconds. First locate the time variable control hole at the side of the
indice hole on the front handle and with the use of the Allen key provided locate internally the
time delay screw. Adjustment of the time delay is done easily by simply rotating clockwise to
decreases the time and rotating anti-clockwise to increases the time.
Please note: Default setting of cartridge is at the maximum 22 seconds.
Flow Adjustment: The Pegler Yorkshire collection of self closing valves also offer adjustable
flow control to be used in conjunction with the variable time delay feature.
The adjustment is made by carefully unscrewing the head of the valve (locate carefully 24mm
open ended spanner on hexagon below push handle and unscrew – being careful not to damage
the chrome finish) Once unscrewed you will notice 4 slotted windows around the plastic cartridge.
By pulling the plastic cartridge away from the valve head it can be re-positioned in a further 4
separate locations at around 360 degrees from its previous position.
Please note: Default setting cartridge is in the fully open position
