6 3 Tank connections
Connect the tank with a good quality rein­
forced hose. Avoid sharp bends and kinks or
sagging 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 odour­proof
waste water hose and resistant to a limited
under­ and over­pressure of 30 kPa (0,3 bar, 4
psi).
Vetus supplies a hose suitable for waste water.

Specially for black water tanks, odour­proof
waste water hose:
Article Code:
SAHOSE19, 19 mm (3/4") internal diameter
SAHOSE25, 25 mm (1") internal diameter
SAHOSE38, 38 mm (1 1/2") internal diameter
Fit every hose connection with a good stainless
steel hose clip.
Install pump (15) and hull outlet with valve
(17)
Install the suction hose(s) (22) (ø 38 mm, 1
1/2" dia.) such that neither the tank, pump or
deck cap are subject to any mechanical loads.
Fit the air-relief nipple (19) as high up as pos­
sible above the level of the top of the tank.
Choose a place for the nipple where rain or
other outside water cannot enter.

Fit the air-relief pipe (23), internal diameter
19 mm (5/8") between the air­relief nipple
and the tank. When viewed from the tank, the
air­relief pipe should run straight upwards.
It is very advisable to fit a smell filter type NSF
in the pipe. This prevents unpleasant smells
from the vent nipple.
Rinsing pipe (27)
In order to rinse out the tank easily with clean
water, and extra fitting can be made in the
deck connected to an extra deck cap. Clean
water can be poured in through this pipe.
Discharge pump (15)
A self­priming pump can be mounted at any
height in relation to the tank.
With an APT100 tank, a non­self­priming waste
water pump can also be used. This pump must
be positioned lower than or at the same level
as the bottom of the tank. And it must be con­
nected to the hose connection at the bottom
of the tank.
Install an air vent (16) 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.
6 4 Check
