TRITON CHECK VALVE

Locate the model number of the

TidalWave pump used for this

installation on the chart. The 'perfect

cut' reference mark is listed next

to the pump. If the corresponding

reference mark is a letter, then the

1 ½" threaded end of the discharge

pipe will be used. If the corresponding

reference mark is a number, then

the 2" threaded end of the

discharge pipe will be used.

Locate the correct reference mark for this installation on the discharge pipe. Using a hacksaw

or PVC saw, cut the pipe at this mark being careful to make a clean, square cut (Figure H).

Discard the end of the discharge pipe that will not be used.

Figure H.

Use a small piece of sandpaper to smooth out the cut end of the discharge

pipe. Clean the 2" socket fitting on the bottom of the check valve and the

cut end of the discharge pipe with PVC cleaner/primer. Apply PVC glue and

insert the discharge pipe into the 2" socket fitting. Hold the discharge pipe

firmly in place for a few seconds, giving the glue time to set (Figure I).

If you have removed the outlet fitting from the check valve prior

to gluing the connection, make sure to slide the union nut onto the

supply pipe before gluing the socket fitting in place.

Attach the Triton Check Valve to the TidalWave pump by threading the

discharge pipe into the pump discharge.

MD, TW2 and SH Series pumps include fittings that convert the pump discharge to 1 ½"

female threads and are neccessary for proper attachment to the TR215CV.

Place the TidalWave pump with installed Triton Check Valve into the PS3900 Skimmer.

Connect the outlet fitting of the Triton Check Valve to the PVC supply line that feeds the

waterfall using PVC glue and cleaner. For your convenience; 2" and 1 ½" outlet fittings are

supplied with the Triton Check Valve.

Complete installation by tightening the union nuts on the Triton Check Valve. Hand tighten

only. Do not use channel locks to tighten the union nuts.
