3.3 Assembly of Grooved Connections
(clamps not included)
1. Lubricate the outside surface of the grooved
pipe ends and inside of the rubber clamp seals
with the provided silicone lubricant.
2. Position the lubricated clamp seals on a
grooved pipe.
3. Position the item to be attached against the
pipe.
4. Adjust the coupling seals on the two pipes being
joined so that they are touching, and the seal is
half on each pipe.
5. Install the clamp halves over the seal.
6. Place the clamp halves so that the bolts are
facing out and/or on topside of assembled
coupling.
• If utilizing 6 in. ABS clamp, nuts or bolts may
be placed in the recess of the clamp.
• However, the bolt in the recess will facilitate
the spinning of the nut onto bolt. This will
allow for a clean looking installation.
7. Squeeze the clamp halves together and insert
the clamp bolts, attaching the nuts.
8. Square the clamp ears for neat appearance and
tighten firmly.
3.4 Assembly of Flanged Connections
(flanges not included)
1. Connect field piping to the supplied flanges with
the system. The gasket between flange faces
should be elastomeric full-faced with a hardness
of 50 to 70 durometer.
2. Ensure proper alignment of the bolt holes in the
mating flanges. There should be no excessive
gap between the tighten connected flanges.
3. Pull down the nuts diametrically opposite each
other using a wrench to tighten the bolts.
3.5 Weld Solvent PVC Pipe and Fittings
1. Prior to solvent welding, clean all pipe to be
glued. Outside pipe edges should be beveled,
removing sharp edges.
2. Coat the inside of the PVC fitting that is to
receive the piping spool.
3. Coat one end of the pipe spool or fitting to glued
with solvent cement.
4. Quickly push the pipe spool or fitting into
receiving fitting or pipe until bottoming out.
5. Turn between a 1/8 to 1/4 turning motion.
6. Make sure the pipe or fitting is in the desired
location.
7. Wipe off any excess solvent cement.
NOTE:
DO NOT hesitate while installing the pipe or fitting
as it may set prior to bottoming out.
NOTE:
Refer to solvent cement manufacturer’s
recommendation for use of their product in
solvent welding PVC pipe and fittings.
