Suction Line
INSTALL SUCTION LINE TO PUMP HEAD
1.
Uncoil the suction/discharge line. Use outside of solution tank as a guide to cut
proper length of suction line ensuring it will be 2-3" above the bottom of solution tank.
Allow sufficient slack to avoid kinks and stress cracks. Always make a clean
square cut to assure that the suction line is burr free. Normal maintenance
requires trimming.
Suction lines that extend to the bottom of the tank can result in debris pickup
leading to clogged injectors and possible tube failure.
2.
Make connections by sliding the line(s) through connecting nut and ferrule and finger
tighten to the corresponding tube fittings.
3.
Finger tighten nut to the threaded tube fitting while holding the tube fitting.
Over tightening the nut with a wrench may result in damaged fittings, crushed
ferrules, and air pick up.
DO NOT use thread sealant tape on pump tube connections or tools to
tighten connections.
DO NOT use pliers.
NOTE: Beveled ends of
ferrules face pump. Tubing
should bottom into all fittings.
