Step 2 – Cutting the discharge pipe
Locate the correct reference
mark for this installation on the
discharge pipe. Using a hacksaw
or PVC saw, cut the pipe at this
mark, being careful to make a
clean, square cut. Discard the
end of the discharge pipe that
will not be used.
Step 3 – Extending the discharge pipe
Installation of the TR215CV with the PS11000 and PS15000 skimmers requires using
the 6" discharge extension to lengthen the discharge pipe. If you are not installing
the TR215CV in a PS11000 or PS15000 skimmer, skip to Step 4. Use a small piece
of sandpaper to smooth out the cut end of the discharge pipe. Clean the 2" socket
fitting on the discharge extension and the cut end of the discharge pipe with PVC
cleaner/primer. Apply PVC glue and insert the discharge pipe into the discharge ex-
tension. Hold the pieces firmly in place for a few seconds, giving the glue time to set.
Step 4 – Connecting the discharge pipe
Step 5 – Connecting the outlet pipe
Connection to Flexible PVC pipe:
For your convenience, 2" and 1 ½" outlet socket fittings for connection to flexible
PVC pipe are supplied with the Triton Check Valve. Remove the union nut on the
outlet of the check valve. Insert the desired socket fitting into the union nut and
reconnect to the check valve.
Use a small piece of sandpaper to smooth out the cut end of
the discharge pipe. Clean the 2" socket fitting on the bottom
of the check valve and the cut end of the discharge pipe with
PVC cleaner/primer. Apply PVC glue and insert the discharge
pipe into the 2" socket fitting. Hold the discharge pipe firmly
in place for a few seconds, giving the glue time to set.
NOTE: If you have removed the 2" socket fitting from the bottom of the
check valve prior to gluing the connection, make sure to slide the union
nut onto the discharge pipe before gluing the socket fitting in place.
Attach the Triton Check Valve to the TidalWave pump by
threading the discharge pipe into the pump discharge.
NOTE: If you are installing a TW-Series pump, you will need to use the
threaded transition coupling that is supplied with the pump to make this
connection. If you are installing a SH-Series pump, you will need to use
the threaded transition elbow that is supplied with the pump to make this
connection.
Place the TidalWave pump with installed Triton Check Valve
into your Atlantic Skimmer/Pump Vault. Connect the outlet
fitting of the Triton Check Valve to the PVC supply line that
feeds the waterfall using PVC glue and cleaner.
