Key Plumbing System Component Overview (cont.)
Cyclonic Separators
All 5 micron reclaims come with one or more
cyclonic separators, or cyclones, for short. The
number of cyclones present will vary based on
Reclaim Model. The larger the system is - the
more cyclones it will have. The cyclones take
the water from the system pump via a manifold
to the inlet in the middle, spin the water in a
vortex (420 Gforce) sending the heavy material
(solids) to the bottom and the 5 micron water
to the top which becomes the treated water as
well as the water that gets recirculated back to
the first tank.
The Cyclonic Seperators are connected at
the bottom with a series of braided hoses
into a PVC manifold. The “solids” that move
to the bottom of each individual cyclone will
flow through the manifold & exit the Reclaim
System via the Underflow Flush Valve.
Prime Solenoid Valve
The prime solenoid is a 3/8” valve located
on the lower right of the system near the U/F
Flush valve. This valve will flow city water into
the bottom of the strainer basket filling the
basket & the suction line all the way back to
the foot valve in the last reclaim tank.
Normally Open Solenoid Valve
This valve is located on the manifold just
above the mazzei eductor. It typically has a
yellow sticker on it for identification purposes.
The only time it closes is during the prime
sequence to assist the system in catching
prime. This valve exisits to assist the Reclaim
in building pressure while priming. It blocks the
city water path. Once the pressure reaches
4psi at the pressure switch, the pump will start.
