Connecting the tank
Connect up the tank with good quality reinforced hose. Avoid sharp
bends or kinks in the hose.
The reinforced hose must be of quality suitable for drinking water
and resistant to a temperature of at least 60 degrees C and a pressure
of 400 kPa (4 bar, 58 psi).
Vetus supplies a hose suitable for tap water. It is tasteless, non-poi-
sonous, resistant to temperatures from -5 to +65 degrees C (+23 to
+149 degrees F) and has a working pressure of 1500 kPa (15 bar) 16
mm. dia. (215 psi - 5∕8" dia.) and 800 kPa (8 bar) - 38 mm. dia. (116
psi - 11∕2")
Article Code:
DWHOSE16A, drinking water hose, 16 mm (5∕8") internal diameter, and
DWHOSE38A, drinking water hose, 38 mm (11∕2") internal diameter.
Fit each hose connection with a good hose clamp.
Fit filler cap A
Install a filler hose B, 38 mm (11∕2") internal diameter, between the
filler cap and the tank. Instal this hose in such a way that neither tank
nor filler cap are subject to mechanical loads.
Fit air-relief nipple C as high as possible above the level of the top
of the tank. Ensure that the air-relief nipple is fitted where it cannot
fill with rain or other water and at least 30 cm above the waterline.
Fit air-relief pipe D, 16 mm (5∕8") internal diameter, between air-
relief nipple and the tank.
When viewed from the tank, the air-relief pipe should be fitted
straight up.
Fit the tap water supply pipe E, 16 mm (5∕8") internal diameter, be-
tween tank and pump. A non-priming pump should be lower than, or
at the same height as the underside of the tank. A self-priming pump
can be mounted at any height in relation to the tank.
Connect 2 tanks together using T-pieces in the water supply pipes
and if required air-relief pipe.

Check
Check the system for any leaks. Extraction pressure 20 kPa (0.2 bar)
(4.4 psi).
Sticker
Apply the blue 'Fresh water tank' sticker on the tank, the text must be
readable after installation of the tank and also affix the content sticker.
