Always ensure the washer is inserted into the hose connection to prevent
leakage
Shown here is the delivery hose
connection. The delivery hose is a
high-pressure hose which is screwed
onto the connection found at the left-
hand side of the unit in the lower left
corner.
Connection is a simple thread
connection. Insert the washer to
prevent leaks, screw connect the
fitting to the tread on the pipe from
the unit and tighten with a suitable
tool.
You only need to tighten to a normal tightness for this type of fitting. There is
no set tension required for this connection. If, when the unit is operating, this
connection leaks, check for tightness. If unit continues to leak, then shut down
and remove the delivery hose and check for damage to the seal. If seal is
damaged, replace seal and reconnect.
How to connect to the water source:
The water source for the product will generally be the same water that has
oxygen delivered back to it, although not always. For example, if the product is
used in an aquaculture sea cage, the water source will be the ocean water beside
the unit. If in a land-based prawn farm, it will normally be water drawn from
the prawn pond. If used in agriculture irrigation, water would normally be
drawn from the irrigation supply channel or head ditch and may be delivered
into a head ditch or direct to field.
Connection of the suction lines requires the connection of two hoses – one hose
to the priming pump and the other to the main inlet
