5.5 Connecting the delivery pipe to the sewer network

Fekabox 110 tanks have a 2" GAS outlet connection. It must be
fitted as shown in figure 6 after having drilled the required outlet
(see par. 4.1 / 5.3).
To guarantee a perfect seal it is recommended to use Teflon or
suitable glues depending on whether the material being glued is
plastic (PP or PVC) or metal.

5.6 Connecting the ventilation pipe

Remember to provide a ventilation pipe to avoid the formation of inflammable, explosive or toxic mixtures. On the station identify
the seat for the ventilation duct, marked with the symbol . Open the duct as indicated in point 5.3 and connect the
ventilation pipe so that it can evacuate any condensate from the station. Check that the coupling is watertight.
The various national regulations may require different ratios between the diameter of the outlet pipe and that of the ventilation pipe.
Ensure that the pipe outlet is in the open (for example, above the ridge of the roof if the station is installed inside a building) and
that the exhaust gases cannot get into other places such as buildings, rooms and similar. Avoid horizontal stretches in the
ventilation duct.

5.7 Closing the cover

The tank is shipped without the gasket fitted under the cover. Prepare it as in
figure 7B after having removed the film, fig. 7A
Check that the gasket of the cover is lying in the bottom of its seat and is not
twisted before screwing the cover onto the tank.
Check that the gasket does not slip in the thread during screwing. In case of
B
installation inside buildings, the cover must be screwed right down to guarantee that
the station is hermetically sealed against liquids and gas.

5.8 Provision for emergency drainage

On the rear, at the base of the station, is a connection for an emergency drainage
system, marked by the symbol . You can use the connection to attach a
secondary pump (for example a manual diaphragm pump), the discharge pipe of
which must be independent from that of the internal electropump in the station.
Identify the seat for the duct on the bottom of the station, open the duct and connect
Fig. 7
the emergency drainage pipe. Check that the coupling is watertight.

5.9 Non-return valve

Install a non-return valve in the pipe connecting to the public/private sewer network. This will avoid the reflux of liquid. Place the
valve at a distance of at least 1 metre from the lifting station to allow the flow of liquid, moved by the pump, to open the shutter of the
valve (unless indicated otherwise by the manufacturer). Always refer to the local and/or national regulations, laws and standards in
force.
The non-return valves are available as accessory kits.

5.10 Interception gate valve

Install an interception valve in both the inlet pipe and the delivery pipe (connection to the public/private sewer network). In this way
maintenance work can be carried out without having to drain the whole system. Gate valves or ball valves may be used.
The interception valves are available as accessory kits.
See example of installation in chapter 4.
