1. ASSEMBLY
You can install the pressure regulator above or below ground. We recommend installing the pressure
regulator below ground, and centrally in front of the valves in order to protect downstream components
from excessive operating pressure. Additionally, the integrated filter protects the irrigation system from
contamination.
1.1. To install the pressure regulator above ground
In case of an installation above ground, you need one GARDENA Connector 25 mm x 1" female
thread (art. 2762) per side in order to connect the pressure regulator to the GARDENA Connecting
Pipes of 25 mm (Art. 2700 / 2701 / 2718).

Make sure to insert the connecting pipes
After a few centimetres you will feel a resistance (sealing ring). Push the connecting pipe in even
further until it is stopped. This ensures a tight connection.
1.2. To install the pressure regulator below ground
In case of an installation below ground, you need two different connectors per side in order to connect
the pressure regulator to the GARDENA connecting pipes of 25 mm (Art. 2700 / 2701 / 2718):
• the GARDENA 1''x1'' connectors (art. 2758)
• the GARDENA connectors 25 mm x 1'' male thread (art. 2763)
In case of an installation below ground, we also recommend using the valve shaft (art. 1290) to have
better access to the pressure regulator.
