Installation Procedure:
MAGTOP G5 with Flanges:
•
Mount the top and bottom shut-off valves to the tank
flanges using suitable sealing materials. Do not yet fully
tighten the screws.
•
Insert the 11 x 12 x 5 silicon discs into the shut-off
valves.
•
Push the sleeve nut, along with the silicon ring (which
has been snapped into place inside the nut), over the
standpipe (see figure. 2).
•
Insert the standpipe between the shut-off valves making
sure that is square.
•
Check the length of the standpipe! The pipe must fit
flush against the silicon discs. Loosen the flange screws
if necessary to correct distance and squareness.
•
Retighten the flange screws.
•
Push the sleeve nut up to the shut-off valve and tighten
(46 mm open-end wrench).
Tighten the sleeve nut “hand tight” only. Do not crush
the seal!
•
After the vessel has been filled, check all fittings for
leaks!
MAGTOP G5 with Threaded Connectors:
•
Mount the top and bottom shut-off valves to the
threaded connectors at the tank using suitable sealing
materials.
•
Insert the 11 x 12 x 5 silicon discs into the shut-off
valves.
•
Push the sleeve nut, along with the silicon ring (which
has been snapped into place inside the nut), over the
standpipe (see figure. 2).
•
Insert the standpipe between the shut-off valves making
sure that is square.
•
Check the length of the standpipe! The pipe must fit
flush against the silicon discs. Correct if necessary.
•
Push the sleeve nut up to the shut-off valve and tighten

Maintenance:
If used for its intended purpose, the MAGTOP G5 is
maintenance-free.
However, the magnetic float accumulates any magnetic
particles which may be present in the medium over a
period of time. In order to prevent operating errors, the float
should be cleaned to remove magnetic particles at regular
intervals.
