Installation Example - Vetus LGS Instrucciones De Instalación

- No thrust pressure must be allowed to accumulate. If it does, wa-
ter will flow into the exhaust gas / cooling water separator from
the outside!
- The skin fitting may be installed above or a maximum of 7.5 cm
(3") below the water line.
Use a reinforced water hose or exhaust hose to connect the exhaust
gas / cooling water separator to the skin fitting.

2.5 Sending unit for the temperature alarm
A sending unit for the temperature alarm can be installed in the ex-
haust hose of the motor.
3 Maintenance
All hose connections should be inspected on a regular basis to en-
sure that they are both gastight and watertight.
Before the boat is put into storage for the winter the exhaust gas /
cooling water separator should be drained by opening the outboard
valve in the drainage pipe.

4 Installation example

The illustration shows an exhaust system with an exhaust muffler
(type LP) the exhaust gas / cooling water separator (type LGS) an
transom exhaust connection and a cooling water drainage pipe.
The entry of water running up from behind is almost totally prevent-
ed by the additional height difference between the water line and
the exhaust gas / cooling water separator.
After the motor is shut down, the water still in the exhaust hose (be-
tween the highest point of the exhaust system and the exhaust muf-
fler) will run back down to the exhaust muffler.
To limit the quantity of water which runs back down to the exhaust
muffler as much as possible, the exhaust gas / cooling water separa-
tor should be installed as close to the exhaust muffler as possible.
The water in the exhaust gas / cooling water separator will drain away
via the skin fitting until it reaches the same level as the waterline.
