Flow Cell Assembly; Flow Cell Mounting; Inlet And Exit Lines; Sensors - Pentair AK110 Installation And User Manual

1. Wrap all four flex fittings with threaded seal tape.
2. Install two flex fittings into two ball valves.
3 . Wrap barb fitting with threaded seal tape . Install barb into remaining ball valve .
4 . Wrap both ends of the close-nipple with threaded seal tape . Install into the filter assembly using (either end OK) .
Hand-tighten only .
5 . Install one ball valve into the filter .
6 . Install the filter and remaining ball valves as shown in the figure .
7 . Verify that the flow switch magnet is in the flow cell tube with the large or hat end pointing down .
Select a suitable location for the flow cell meeting the following recommendations:
1 . Sensors wires will connect to within ten (10) feet .
2 . Do not mount in direct sunlight . SUNLIGHT WILL CAUSE INACCURATE READINGS .
3 . Water leaks will cause damage! Mount where water does not leak and damage other compentents .
4 . Mount flow cell vertically with provided screws .
5 . Securely fasten all electrical, water and chemical lines .
6 . Locate chemical feed pumps and chemical storage tanks in a safe and secure area .
7. Maximum operating pressure = 25 psi
8. Extreme pressure variances may affect readings and can cause damage to the sensors.
9 . Avoid installing the outlet before the main pump as the vacuum may damage the chemical sensors .
10. Only inject chemicals on the outlet side of the AK1200 Flow Cell
11 . Do not over tighten fitting on flow cell top .
1 . It is essential that the supply line be at a higher pressure than the discharge line so the water will flow through
the cell at a steady rate in the right direction . Installing a ball valve in the main circulation line may be required
if the pressure is too low .
2 . Inlet should be installed after filter and before heater .
3. Exit should be installed after heater and as far away from any equipment as possible.
4 . Drill and tap at above locations with 7/16" drill and 1/4" NPT tap . Choose a location on a fitting where the
pipe enters so you are drilling through both the pipe and fitting to get maximum depth of thread.
5. Install ¼" NPT by ½" flex fittings then route inlet and exit lines.
