Supplementary requirements regarding adjustability and flusb performance for <br />original equipment and after-market flush valve seals shall be as follows: <br /> <br />For Orillinal Eauipment <br /> <br />The maximum volume of water that may be discharged by the toilet, wben field <br />adjuslment of original equipment tank trim is set at its maximum water-use setting, <br />shall not exceed 2.0 gallons. The following test procedure shall be followed to verilY <br />lhatthe toilet meets this requirement: <br /> <br />Purpose of Test: The objective of this Adjustability Test is to determine the upper <br />limit to the volume of water that may be discharged by the field adjustment of tsnJc <br />trim components. <br /> <br />Test shall be conducted per section 8.4 of ASME AI12.19.2-200J with the following <br />modification: <br /> <br />Test Procedure: <br /> <br />a. The toilet shall be installed on a leveled test stand and all adjustable tank trim <br />componenta (any field adjustment felltures in the tank that might incl'ellSC the <br />toilet flush volume) shall be adjusted to the maximum water use selting, while <br />talcing care not to damlIge or alter the parts. <br />b. The water level in the tsnJc shall be set to 0.25 inches +/_ 0.06 incbes below the <br />top of the overflow tube. Where !be tank utilizes an intemaJ containment vessel <br />and does not possess an overflow tube, the vesselsbllll be filled to a level 0.25 <br />inches +1- 0.06 inches below the top rim of the vessel or to the manufacturer's <br />designated water line; whicbever is higher. <br />c. The static pressure of !be water supply sbaJI be adjusted to 80 PSI +/_ 2 PSI. <br />d. The toilet shall be flushed maintaining the activlltor in the flushing position for II <br />period of one (I) second IIIllXimum, the water being dmned into a container. <br />e. After the flush cycle i. complete, the total flush volume shall be observed and <br />recorded. <br />f. This procedure shall be repeated until five (5) sets of dlIta an: obtained. <br />g. The static pressure of the water supply shall be adjusted to 20 PSI +/_ 2 PSI or at <br />the manufacturer's recommended minimum pressure lIS noted in the product <br />literature and product packaging. and test procedure steps d-e-f shall be repealed. <br /> <br />Report: The live (5) individual /Jush volumes and the average of the five (5) runs <br />shall be reported for each of the two static water supply pressures specified. <br /> <br />PerformaDce RequfremeDt: The average total tlusb volume for five (5) test runs for <br />each of the two static water supply pressures shall not exceed 2.0 gallons. <br />NOTE..
