tube is then connected to one spray head after the other. For
●
this the lead-through h provided should be used. In order to
use this lead-through, a hole with a diameter of 12 mm needs to
be drilled in the appropriate place. The connection of the tube to
the connector works in the same way as with the spray heads.
For mounting the lead-through
for the tube, screw on the
wing nut as well as a second
nut with an extra thread from
the side. Now insert this side
into the terrarium from the
outside. Next secure the lead-
through by countering it with
the second nut from the inside.
Please pay attention that the
external holding fixture points
in the same direction as the
tube runs.
Finally the lead-through can
be connected to the incoming
and outgoing tubes.
The spray heads and the tube
can be installed in the terra-
rium with the help of the suc-
tion caps (Picture 1/glass cover)
or mounting elements (Picture
2 and 3, wood or gauze).
TIP: Attach the spray heads in the positions desired before
cutting the tube to the required lengths. Please make sure that
the cuts are straight.
When installing the tube, please pay attention that it is neither
sharply bent nor squeezed.
Furthermore the tube should not run too close to any sources
of heat in the terrarium. This can lead to distortions or even
danger of fire.
If you do not use a dripping nozzle in your installation, a closing
●
plug should be inserted into the hindmost opening of the
i
last spray head instead of a tube. This closing plug is again
secured with a nut. After connecting the spray heads, adjust
the directions as required. Please pay special attention that no
electrical appliances (e.g. lamps, sockets) get sprayed.
How to use the L-Connector 90°:
In order to use the L-connector
to bend the tube at 90°
(Picture 4) it is advisable to
cut and install the tube first.
In the next step, the tube
ends are pushed over the
L-connector one after the
other with pressure.
To disconnect the tube from
the L-connector again, the
blue ring on the L-connector
has to be pressed before
and while pulling out the
tube.

Directions for operation
In order to avoid soaking, the sprinkler system should only be
operated for a few seconds or the pump capacity should be
adjusted to prevent soaking. The time between operations (min.
1 h.) should also be chosen accordingly to prevent soaking.
Should the pump suck in no or only insufficient amounts of
water, the reason for this could be too large a difference in
height or too much air in the system. To de-air the system in
such a case, use only one spray head and a short piece of tube
(about 20 cm).
