Suction Vent/Valve – (For use priming Check Valve Strainers)
Aluminum Coupling - designed to be connected between the large intake on the engine pump and the suction hose. Vent port uses a 1 ½” x ¼ turn ball valve. To Use: 1 - Connect to intake with hose attached to Dry Hydrant. 2 - Open ¼ turn vent valve. 3 - Open tank to pump valve. 4 – Water will flow from onboard tank, filling up dry pipe as air escapes through the vent. When air turns to a solid stream of water, close ¼ turn ball valve. 5 - Close tank to pump valve. Pump should start without pulling prime. If not, momentarily pull primer. Assembly normally is made using long handle FNST x MNST thread, however other configurations are available upon request.
