Inlet port

To connect the inlet, follow these points:

  • Make the connection at the supply box/distributor.
  • To prevent surging inflow or air intake into the collection tank, install the inlet correctly. CAUTION! Surging inflow or air intake into the collection tank can lead to malfunctions of the lifting unit.
  • Make sure that the pipes are self-supporting: No tensile or compressive forces are applied on the inlet port.
  • Make sure that all connections are fully tight.
  • Make sure that the inlet pipe has a downward slope to the inlet box/distributor.
  • Make sure to install a shut-off valve in the inlet pipe upstream of the supply box/distributor.
