Installation
Set Up
• The equipment shall be installed in a dry place, safeguarding from outdoors and
allowing air flow for its correct ventilation (A). Environment temperature shall not
exceed 104 °F.
• Use bolts to fix the equipment to a concrete base to prevent any vibration (B). The
hydro pneumatic equipment shall be installed in horizontal position to assure good
performance.
• The suction line pipes and pressure shall have supports to the wall or floor to
prevent the tension transmission to the hydro pneumatic equipment (C).
• Use care not to damaging the hydro pneumatic equipment and /or pipes by
tightening in excess the joints.
• Seal all the connections with thread sealing tape (Teflon). Leaks cause air flowing out
and obstruct water output.
Suction Line (input)
• The suction pipe diameter shall not be lower than the diameter or the water outlet
of the hydro pneumatic equipment. If the suction height exceeds 13 ft, use a pipe with
a smaller diameter.
• The suction pipe shall be totally hermetic. Its end shall be submerged into water at
least half-a meter. It is recommended to install a foot-valve (D). The elbow pipes shall
be 90° towards the water intake of the hydro pneumatic equipment.
• The suction line shall be as short as possible, because the suction capacity lowers
simultaneously with the increase of the line. The suction line shall go up regularly
towards the equipment to prevent air pockets.
CAUTION
If these indications are not followed air and bubbles will
close the flow and interfere with the good performance of the hydro
pneumatic equipment.
Pressure line (output)
• Adapt into the outlet pipe, a gate valve (E) to adjust the
flow and pressure speed required.
• We recommend setting to check valves (F), one between
the entry of the pressurized water and the gate valve and
another one between the water depository or cistern and the
water inlet.
