It is surprising that there is a problem, because in a tank costs almost new inlet valves. Despite this incoming water into it to block it stopped and there was a constant murmur. The problem arose in fact at once, so it was suggested that something broke, slipped or clogged.

Drain mechanism with the button works properly, it generally did not touch.

Here is the bad block on the outside, it had to be disassembled and find the cause of the leak. To do this it was necessary to disconnect the small lever on the vertical rod, unscrew the large white nut and partially pull the valve internals.

At first it was suspected that the stock fell with a tiny rubber liner. And even when it appears a serious development, it also ceases to block the water inlet. About him separately told here. However, this has not been confirmed.

Elaboration on the insert has been accepted and it became clear that it was not in it. To be safe, I turned it the other way around flat surface up, gathered all and just in case checked, but water continued to flow. I had to repeat the disassembly and for the convenience of fully unscrew the inlet mechanism of the tank.

To do this, cut off the water, disconnect the flexible hoses and remove the retaining nut on the outside of a tank.

When the first partial dismantling was completed, the inlet valve looked like in the picture 4. In its rear part, for the well distinguishable white plastic lid with a protrusion and a hole in the center is a membrane. She had to pull out and check too. But before that, the whole mechanism with a tank, I took off.

When the cover has been removed from the membrane that is visible in the photo 5 above, it was found out that the water brought into the valve metal tube to break away from the scale, which prevented him to work normally. It is also clearly visible in the middle. Could only remove debris, rinsed silicon membrane and mount the device in the reverse order.

Obviously blockage was due to the recent work on the crane is replaced inside the house. Crane is after the water meter, however filter scale counter caught.

After assembly, the inlet valve it works well, and what pleased.
