V600W VACUSWEEP® INLET VALVE INSTALLATION (
CONT
'
D
)
CONNECTION IN A WALL
Remove the baseboard and locate studs in
the wall where V600W VacuSweep inlet valve
will be installed. Locate a position where the
inlet will be clear of vertical studs and have
free access either up or down dependent on
location of central vacuum connection to the
rest of the system. Refer to figure
.
Holding the drill at a 45° angle and as close to
the wall as possible, between located studs,
drill a small reference hole through the floor
and subfloor. Locate this reference hole from
beneath and measure over approximately
1
7
/

” to center of base plate of wall. Ensure
you have 1½” clearance from any obstacles if
connecting from below. Refer to figure
.
If installation is from below use a 2½” diameter
hole saw to remove wood floor and base plate,
sufficient to locate V600W VacuSweep inlet
valve centered over the reference hole. Refer
to figure
.
Using the reference hole as a center, cut a
2 ³/
8
” H x 6
5
/
8
” W rough opening in the wall
and baseboard. Refer to figure
.
Glue the long socket of the tight elbow (part
no. V382XS) onto a section of 2” central vacuum
tube. Make the terminal connections to the
V600W VacuSweep inlet valve by sliding the
low-voltage wire into wire clips. Turn the power
to the vacuum unit ON to test the connection.
After successful completion of the test, turn
power to the vacuum unit OFF. Wrap a piece of
wire/string around the tubing. Using the wire/
string to temporarily hold the pipe and elbow
in place, insert the V600W VacuSweep inlet
valve into the opening at the base of the wall
and elbow.
DO NOT GLUE
this connection
(Designed for friction fit). Refer to figure
.
Remove the wire/string. With the door in an
open position, secure the V600W VacuSweep
inlet valve to the wall using no. 6 screws. Refer
to figure
.
Ensure that the spring on the
electrical connector has 1/8” clearance to
rough opening.
Continue with remainder of
central vacuum connections.
