B. SEPARATION TANK INSTALLATION
1. If the separation tank is plumbed to return water back to the pool, a by-pass valve must be used. This valve
must be closed when not backwashing through the separation tank so that the separation tank is not under

2. WARNING! If the separation tank is plumbed to return water to waste, a positive shut off valve is NOT
recommended in the line from the separation tank. If the system is operated with such a valve closed, the
pressure in the entire system would go abnormally high and could present an explosive situation. Additionally,

A. GENERAL INFORMATION
1. The separation tank operates under pressure. When the lock ring is installed properly and operated without air
in the water system, the separation tank will operate in a safe manner.
2. WARNING! The maximum working pressure of the sepataion tank is 3.5 BAR (50 psi). Never subject the
tank to pressure in excess of this amount - even when conducting hydrostatic pressure tests. Pressures above
3.5 BAR (50 psi) can cause lid separation, which can result in serious injury, death or property damage.

THE SYSTEM. In most cases, the maximum pressure will be stated on each component of the system.
If doubt exists as to the pressure to which the system will be subjected, install an ASME approved automatic
Pressure Relief or Pressure Regulator in the circulation system for the lowest working pressure of any of the
components in the system.
3. The pressure gauge is the primary indicator of how the separation tank is operating. Maintain your pressure
gauge in good working order.
