3-4 The inlet of the
approved 3/4-inch potable water tubing and pipe, such as PEX tubing (ASTM F876, CSA B137.5), copper pipe (ASTM B 88), or
Copper Tube Size (CTS) CPVC pipe (ASTM D 2846, CSA B137.6). Follow the instructions below for connecting the municipal
water line to the SharkBite®. For more details on using the SharkBite® go to www.cashacme.com.
3-5 Using the Hose clamps provided, mount the
existing discharge pipe. Place the unit so that the float level will
operate a few inches above the turn on level of the existing sump
pump. (Refer to figure 2). Tighten hose clamps on discharge
pipe. NOTE: If this type of installation will not work refer to
alternate installation 3-17.
3-6 After mounting the
existing municipal water supply line. Shut off the municipal water
supply, and plumb the tubing or piping into the municipal water
supply line. Use the appropriate backflow prevention for your
jurisdiction. The water supply and discharge piping each require
a union or other quick‐disconnect fitting to make the pump
accessible for servicing, and a dedicated shut off valve installed
on the water supply line within 6 ft. (1.8 m) of the pump. All water
supply piping shall be made of materials and methods approved
by the local plumbing codes.
3-7 Prior to connecting water line to the
line to insure it is free from debris, solder, pie sealant, etc.
3-8 To connect the water line to the SharkBite® cut the pipe or tubing
end square. Ensure that there are no burrs or scratches 1" from
the cut end. Mark the pipe or tubing 1" from the cut end to
indicate proper insertion depth. If using PEX tubing the tube liner
in the end of the SharkBite® must be used. For copper and
CPVC piping the tube liner must be removed by using your
fingers or pliers. Insert the tubing or pipe into the SharkBite®
through the release collar to rest against the grab ring. Then
push the tube or pipe firmly until it reaches the tube stop. To
insure the tube or pipe is correctly inserted, check that the depth
mark is up to the end of the release collar.
3-9 If the Shark fitting is removed for connection to other types of
3/4" NPT threaded fittings, make sure all sealing tape is removed
from the threaded inlet of the
tool if necessary. Do not allow any debris to enter the valve
body.
