2. Thread the outlet bayonet connector onto the
flexible pipe and assemble the flexible pipe to the
pump so that the outlet elbow is perpendicular to
the pump as shown in the drawing.
3. Insert the Eyeball Seat into the Outlet Holder that
is fixed into the glass. This part is a tight fit so that
it will not float out during any pump maintenance
but can be removed if necessary for cleaning.
4. Insert the Eyeball outlet followed by the seal into
the Outlet Holder.
5. Lower the pump into the pump chamber until the
Outlet Elbow with the Bayonet connector is opposite
the Outlet Holder.
6. Screw the Bayonet to the Holder until firmly in
position. Check that the Eyeball is free to rotate but
held securely in the desired position. Initially adjust
the nozzle to the downward position to prevent
splashing when the pump is first switched on.
7. Feed the power cable over the rear wall, thread
it through the cable channel and plug it into the
designated socket on the power center.
8. With the circulation pump secured in position, push the black filter
sponge into the pump chamber so that the slit in the sponge is in
line with the flexible pipe, as shown in the complete sump assembly
diagram.
7 Installation of optional Chiller
(not provided):
For the long-term safety and vitality of reef inhabitants Red Sea
recommends the use of chillers with all reef aquariums. Both the
aquarium and cabinet of the MAX
®
E systems are provided “Chiller Ready”.
The MAX
®
E cabinet has air ventilation openings both at the front and
rear to providing the free convection cooling necessary for the efficient
operation of aquarium chillers.
Use the Accessory/chiller kit to connect a pump and return pipes to a chiller.
1. Attach 17mm (¾”) flexible pipe to the outlet of a submersible pump
and attach one of the hose barbs to the free end of the pipe such that
the hose barb is perpendicular to the pump.
2. Lower the pump and tube assembly into the sump so that the hose
barb is facing the rear of the sump. Feed the power cable above the
rear wall, thread the cable through the cable channel and plug the
power cable into the designated socket on the power center.
3. Connect the required length of 17mm (¾”) flexible tubing to connect
the inlet and outlet ports of the chiller to the hose barbs on the back
of the accessory pipe unit. Lock the tubes to the hose barbs with the
lock nuts.
4. Slide the accessory pipe unit onto the back wall and fix in position
with the screw.
5. Push the hose barb of the pump into one of the connectors and screw
the lock nut to hold it in position.
6. Connect the required length of 17mm (¾”) flexible pipe to the other
hose barb. Insert the free end of this pipe into the sump and connect
the bayonet to the other connector on the pipe unit.
