Tank Connections
Connect the tank up with good quality reinforced
hose. Avoid sharp kinks and sags in the hose.
Bracket the hose at not too far apart, regular points,
to prevent the hose sagging. Deposits will collect in
these sags, causing a blockage after time.
The reinforced hose should be an odour-proof
waste water hose and resistant to a limited under-
and over-pressure of 0.3 bar (0.3 kgf/cm
Vetus supplies a hose suitable for waste water.

Fit every hose connection with a good stainless
steel hose clip.
Install pump '10' and hull outlet with valve '12'.
Install the suction hose '17' (38 mm (1
such that neither the tank or pump are subject to
any mechanical loads.
Fit the air-relief nipple '14' maximum 1.5 m above
the level of the top of the tank. Choose a place for
the nipple where rain or other outside water cannot
enter.
If required, fit an odour filter '15' between the air-
relief pipe and nipple.
Fit the air-relief pipe '18', internal diameter 16-mm
(

When viewed from the tank, the air-relief pipe
should run straight upwards.
Discharge pump '10'
A non-priming waste water pump must be fitted lower than, or
at the same height as the underside of the tank.
A self-priming pump can be mounted at any height in relation
to the tank.
Install a bend ventilator '11' in the discharge pipe between
pump and hull outlet when the waste water tank is below the
water line and the hull outlet is also below the water line.
