of the solution tank. If the tubing from the foot valve to the suction side of the pump exceeds 60”, the
unit will not have enough lift force to stay primed.
Mount Pump to Solution tank
Place pump on tank. Mark where the anchor holes will
be drilled. Drill pilot holes with a small drill bit so that
the pump can be mounted on the tank with two wood
or sheet metal screws. We recommend screwing them
in
after
the pump has been primed and the tubing has
been hooked up for easiest installation.
Mark the holes for the suction tube and the degassing
valve return line and drill holes.
How to Connect Tubing & Fittings
•
Trim the end of the tubing square (cut with a new box cutter blade).
•
Slide the connector nut onto the
tube.
•
Push the tubing over the conical
fitting until the tubing is flush against
the end of the fitting.
•
Screw the connector nut on, hand
tight.
•
Do not use Teflon tape/ paste on the
tubing fitting connections.
Use the harder/stiffer translucent tubing for connection from discharge-side (12 o’clock) to
the injection check valve.
Use the softer clear tubing for the foot valve to suction-side (6 o’clock) connection.
