FloTech sockets are mechanically and functionally compatible with API 1004 Cargo Tank
Bottom Loading Recommended Practice. Socket faceplate and contact components are
interchangeable with Scully and Civacon socket bodies. Civacon is the registered trademark of
Civacon / Dover Corporation.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Sockets are to be mounted on the same side of the trailer as the bottom loading equipment.
Sockets are normally located within 3 feet of the bottom loading adapters so the rack plug and
cord will reach the socket without over stretching the cord. Remove the socket faceplate and
hardware packet and set aside. Use the socket body as a template to drill two 11/32" holes as
shown in Diagram 1. Mount the socket body to the trailer using two 5/16 bolt and lock
washers. Make sure the grounding wire, large eyelet end is fastened under one of the 5/16
bolts.
