CONNECTING TO THE DISCHARGE HOSE
The SANICONDENS
®
BEST discharge pipe must be connected to the
flexible hose
A
(supplied : length 20 Ft). This hose should be used
to form the vertical section of the discharge pipe.
• Place the flexible hose onto the non-return valve of the
SANICONDENS
®
BEST(see diagram
7c
)
.
• Position the flexible hose in the most vertical position
possible to avoid it kinking.
• It is advisable to make a smooth bend to avoid the hose from
kinking.
• The discharge vinyl tubing (included) can be connected to a
PVC line large in diameter by using the plastic reducer
Y
that
is provided with the system.
As shown on the fig.
7f
, the plastic fitting connects to the
end of the 3/8” vinyl tubing at the top and it increases the
diameter to ease the connection to a PVC line. (Reducer is
3/8” barbed x 3/4» male end)
The SANICONDENS
®
BEST is fitted with a non-return valve to
prevent re-activation.
