1. はじめに
This manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of the Pentair Air Relief Tube, model 150040. This component is specifically designed for use with Pentair Triton II TR50 and TR60 pool and spa sand filters manufactured after November 1999. Adhering to these instructions will help ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your pool filtration system.
2.製品オーバーview
The Pentair Air Relief Tube 150040 is a critical component in the air relief system of compatible Pentair sand filters. Its primary function is to allow trapped air to escape from the filter tank during startup and operation, preventing air pockets that can impede water flow and reduce filtration efficiency. This tube measures approximately 18 inches in length and has a diameter of 1/4 inch.

3. 安全情報
プール設備の設置またはメンテナンスを行う際は、必ず基本的な安全上の注意事項を守ってください。遵守しない場合、重傷や物的損害につながる可能性があります。
- 電源を切る: Always turn off the main power to the pool pump and filter system at the circuit breaker before performing any service or maintenance.
- 減圧システム: Ensure the filter system is completely depressurized before opening any valves or removing components. Open the air relief valve on top of the filter until all pressure is released.
- 手順を読む: Familiarize yourself with the entire filter system's manual before attempting any repairs or replacements.
- 適切なツールを使用する: Use appropriate tools for the task to prevent damage to components or injury.
4. セットアップとインストール
This section outlines the general procedure for replacing an existing air relief tube. Refer to your specific Pentair Triton II filter manual for detailed diagrams and component locations.
必要なツール:
- Screwdriver (if applicable for filter clamp)
- Pliers or wrench (if applicable for fittings)
インストール手順:
- システムを準備する: Turn off the pool pump and disconnect power at the circuit breaker. Open the manual air relief valve on the filter to release all internal pressure.
- Drain Filter (if necessary): If the filter tank needs to be opened, ensure it is drained according to your filter's manual.
- Access the Tube: Depending on your filter model, you may need to remove the filter lid or access port to reach the air relief tube connection point.
- 古いチューブを取り外す: Carefully disconnect the old air relief tube from its fitting. Note its orientation and how it was routed within the filter.
- 新しいチューブを取り付ける: Insert the new Pentair Air Relief Tube 150040 into the designated fitting. Ensure it is securely seated. The tube should extend into the filter tank to allow air to rise and escape effectively.
- 安全な接続: If any clamps or fittings were loosened, tighten them appropriately to prevent leaks.
- フィルターを再構成: Close and secure the filter lid or access port according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- システムを再起動します: Ensure all valves are in the correct position. Turn on the pool pump. Open the manual air relief valve on the filter until a steady stream of water emerges, then close it. Check for any leaks.
5. 動作原理
The air relief tube operates passively within the filter system. As water enters the filter tank, any trapped air naturally rises. The air relief tube provides a clear path for this air to travel upwards and exit through the filter's air relief valve, preventing air from becoming trapped in the filter media or pump. This ensures continuous, efficient water flow and proper filtration.
6. メンテナンス
Regular inspection of the air relief tube is recommended to ensure proper function.
- 目視検査: Periodically inspect the tube for signs of wear, cracks, kinks, or blockages. A damaged or obstructed tube can prevent proper air relief.
- クリーニング： If the tube appears dirty or clogged with debris, carefully remove it (following the installation steps in reverse, ensuring the system is depressurized) and clean it with water. Reinstall securely.
- 交換： If the tube is brittle, cracked, or severely damaged, replace it with a genuine Pentair 150040 Air Relief Tube to maintain system integrity.
7。 トラブルシューティング
Issues related to the air relief tube often manifest as problems with air in the pool system.
一般的な症状と解決策:
- Air Bubbles from Return Jets: This indicates air is entering the system. While often due to leaks on the suction side, a faulty or blocked air relief tube can prevent air from escaping the filter, leading to it being pushed back into the pool. Inspect the air relief tube for blockages or damage.
- Filter Not Priming: If the pump struggles to prime or loses prime frequently, trapped air in the filter tank can be a cause. Ensure the air relief tube is clear and properly installed, allowing air to escape when the manual air relief valve is opened.
- High Filter Pressure: While less common for an air relief tube issue, severe air pockets can sometimes contribute to unusual pressure readings. Ensure the tube is not kinked or blocked.
If troubleshooting these steps does not resolve the issue, consult a qualified pool professional.
