INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
ONLY FOR USE BY CERTIFIED,
LICENSED INSTALLERS
1. Tank Delivery and Handling
Care must be taken offloading and unpacking tank and
components. Care must be taken not to damage tank and
components with forklift or any other offloading device. Check
for damaged tank and components that may have occurred in
transportation and notify factory or distributor within 24 hours of
delivery.
2. Set and Backfill Tanks
An ECOPOD-N Treatment System will require a pretreatment
tank. Depending on the supplier it may be integrated into
a single tank or require setting a separate tank. Proper fall
between tanks is required and is specified by local regulatory
code requirements. Excavate and set tank as recommended
by the tank manufacturer. Prior to backfill, install tank access
risers as needed. It is very important to follow all backfill and
compaction procedures required by the tank manufacturer.
Note:
It is recommended that any excavation be roped off
with caution tape for jobsite safety.
3. Plumb Tank Inlets and Outlets
Plumb and solvent weld all inlet and outlet piping on the
pretreatment tank (if applicable) and reactor tank. The
pretreatment tank plumbing requirements are specified by local
regulatory code. The reactor tank inlet piping should extend
more than 12 inches into the tank and terminate above of the
ECOPOD-N reactor box. The reactor tank outlet tee assembly
should be solvent welded to the outlet pipe and must extend six
to twelve inches into the outlet side of the tank. The inlet piping
should be sloped downward toward the ECOPOD and the outlet
piping should sloped downward and away from the tank.
4. Fill Reactor Tank with Clean Water
Begin filling the reactor tank with clean water while the air
distribution and control panel assembly are completed.
Continue filling the tank until water level reaches the outlet tee. It
will take several hours using residential water service.
5. Plumb Air Distribution System
Plumb in the air distribution system. Prime and solvent weld
all connections. Bring 2-inch Schedule 40 PVC line out of the
tank and through the riser sidewall. Extend PVC air distribution
piping from the riser to where the compressor will be located.
A minimum of 12” ground cover is recommended over the
air distribution piping. Connect compressor to the PVC air
distribution piping:
A. If using the regenerative blower (FPZ model SCL06)
attach the 1x6 galvanized nipple to the 1-inch
galvanized elbow, then attach the 2-inch Schedule
40 PVC reducer to the 1-inch galvanized nipple. Next
connect the PVC line to the PVC reducer using PVC
solvent.
