Description

Pentair OVA2 Adapter Kit For CVA-24T To Ortega Valve and Actuator; 2"

The Pentair 2" Adapter Kit for CVA-24T to Ortega Valve and Actuator (OVA2) is a specialized retrofit kit designed to adapt a Pentair Compool CVA-24T valve actuator to work with a 2-inch Ortega 3‑port valve. This conversion ensures that your valve actuator can properly operate with the Ortega valve assembly, maintaining smooth and reliable control of water flow in your pool system.

Features

  • Purpose & Compatibility: The kit is engineered for adapting the CVA-24T valve actuator (commonly found on Pentair Compool systems) to retrofit with an Ortega valve. This compatibility upgrade is especially valuable when replacing or updating older pool control systems.

  • Included Components: The OVA2 kit typically includes:

    • An Adapter Plate

    • A Cover O‑Ring Seal

    • Three additional Cover O‑Ring Seals for secure sealing

    • A Shaft Coupling

    • Two Shaft Coupling Mounting Screws

    • A Valve Handle and Valve Knob

These components work together to provide a tight, leak‑free installation and ensure proper actuator alignment.

Installation Overview

  1. Preparation: Begin by removing the existing handle, valve cover, stop screw, and any old o‑ring seals from the Ortega valve. In retrofit installations, it might be advisable to remove the valve diverter and lubricate its seal as well, ensuring smoother operation and longevity.

  2. Adapter Plate Installation:

    • Insert the new o‑ring seals into the bottom of the adapter plate.

    • Lubricate them using Compool Silicone Grease to help form a proper seal.

    • Mount the adapter plate onto the valve with the existing cover screws (save these screws for reuse).

  3. Shaft Coupling Alignment:

    • Attach the shaft coupling to the valve shaft.

    • Make sure the pointer on the coupling is oriented toward the open valve port so that the valve rotates correctly.

    • Secure the coupling with the provided mounting screws.

  4. Reassembling the Actuator Assembly:

    • Reattach the valve handle to the actuator and secure it with the valve knob.

    • Connect the cable from the valve actuator to the power center.

    • Finally, line up and attach the valve actuator to the shaft coupling, then secure it using the actuator mounting screws.

Practical Considerations

  • Maintenance Tips: Regular inspection is vital—lubricate o‑ring seals and check the valve diverter (if applicable) at least once a year. This maintenance helps prevent leaks and ensures smooth actuator operation.

  • Professional Installation: While the kit is designed for straightforward retrofitting, following the manufacturer’s instructions closely or employing a professional can help ensure that the installation is both safe and efficient.

Using this adapter kit can extend the life of your pool valve assembly and allow you to benefit from the newer functionality and reliability offered by Ortega valve systems.
