SINGLE PIPE EJECTOR INSTALLATION
Single pipe installations require (see Figure 8):
a. Galvanized steel pipe
b. Leather packer-type ejector with built-in foot valve
c. Turned couplings (supplied with packer-type ejector)
d. Well casing adapter.
Step 1. Connect ejector to first length of pipe. Use pipe joint compound
Step 2. Lower pipe into casing. Use special turned couplings (included

Step 3. Add lengths of pipe until the ejector reaches the proper depth.
IMPORTANT: as a guide, the ejector should be set at least 10 to 20 feet
below the lowest water level with pump running, if possible, but always at
least 5 feet above the bottom of the well (see Figure 8).
Step 4. To properly seat the cup seals, after the ejector is correctly posi-

• 100 ft. to 300 ft run: Increase one pipe size.
• 300 ft. to 600 ft run: Increase two pipe sizes.
