6. PLUMBING
1. Plumbing connections are similar to a traditional "tank
cross" or "tank tee". Provisions are made for popular
line sizes via a 1-1/4" NPT male outer thread and a 1"
NPT female inner thread. The plumbing connections
are not directional and allow flow from either side.
When attaching valves or fittings, uses the wrench flats
provided.
EXPLOSION HAZARD. Failure to follow
these instructions can cause a rupture or explosion
possibly causing serious or fatal injury, flooding, and/or
property damage.
2. Install the supply piping from the well pump. If required,
install a spring-loaded check valve.
3. Install a shutoff (service) valve on the outgoing line. This
will allow the Well-X1
™
to be tested prior to pressurizing
the entire system. DO NOT place a shutoff on the
incoming supply line.
NOTE: The relief valve is sized for a maximum flow rate of
10 gpm at 125 psi. If the pump installation allows higher
flow rates, an additional relief valve must be installed.
