Anti-siphon check valve w/ duck-bill cap
This pump is provided with an anti-siphon check valve with duck-bill cap. Use this valve at the injection point unless
there is a good reason not to do so. Be absolutely sure to install it in the following cases.
When the injection point is open to the atmosphere and liquid is to be injected at a position lower than the level of the
liquid in the tank (prevention of siphoning)
When the liquid is to be injected inside the suction-side pipe of a volute pump, etc.
When chemicals greatly exceeding the pump’s rated discharge volume are being fed (prevention of overfeed)
Even with a rising pipe, overfeed may occur if the pipe is too long.
Connecting
(1) The anti-siphon check valve with duck-bill cap has an R1/2 external
thread. Provide an Rc1/2 internal thread at the injection point.
(2) Wind sealing tape around the external thread of the anti-siphon check
valve with duck-bill cap, and screw the valve into the injection point.
If it is hard to screw the valve in, grasp the nozzle grip using a tool
such as pliers, and tighten the valve gently.
When connecting the tube with the anti-siphon check valve with duck-
bill cap already mounted on it to the main pipe, be absolutely sure to
hold the valve body and turn the nut. If the nut is turned without hold-
ing the body, the threaded part on the nozzle may be damaged.
NOTE
<For maintenance>
It is recommended that the tube be attached to the main pipe through a
valve to enable the anti-siphon check valve with duck-bill cap to be replaced
or cleaned, etc.
Use a valve made of materials which will resist any corrosion resulting
from the chemicals used.
