The Slide E.Z. Valve (Product code: 35770) is a component used in septic systems, specifically for discharge control on fixed septic tanks. Here's what this part does:
1. Controls Waste Discharge:
- The Slide E.Z. Valve is designed to control the flow of waste from the septic tank. It acts as a gate that can be opened or closed to allow or stop the discharge of waste from the septic tank into the sewer system or another disposal area.
2. Manual Operation:
- The valve typically operates manually, meaning the user physically opens or closes the valve using a handle or lever. This manual control allows for precise management of when and how much waste is discharged from the septic tank.
3. Prevents Unintended Discharge:
- By keeping the valve closed, the Slide E.Z. Valve prevents unintended discharge of waste from the septic tank. This is particularly important in preventing overflows or leaks, ensuring that waste is only released when it is safe and appropriate to do so.
4. Maintenance and Service:
- The valve can be closed during maintenance or service of the septic system, allowing workers to isolate the tank and perform necessary tasks without worrying about waste discharge. This feature is crucial for the safe operation and upkeep of the septic system.
5. Durable Construction:
- Made from durable materials, the Slide E.Z. Valve is built to withstand the harsh conditions typical of septic systems, including exposure to corrosive waste, moisture, and varying temperatures. It is designed for long-term use and reliability.
6. Prevents Odor and Leakage:
- By securely sealing the discharge outlet when closed, the valve helps to prevent odors and potential leaks from the septic tank. This is important for maintaining a sanitary environment around the septic system.
7. Easy to Install and Use:
- The Slide E.Z. Valve is designed for straightforward installation and easy operation. It usually involves fitting the valve onto the discharge pipe and securing it in place, after which it can be operated with minimal effort.
8. Compatibility:
- This valve is compatible with fixed septic tanks, meaning it is designed to be used in systems where the septic tank is a permanent installation, as opposed to portable systems.
Slide E.Z. Valve (Product code: 35770) is a manual control valve used in fixed septic tanks to regulate the discharge of waste. It allows users to control when and how waste is released from the tank, prevents unintended discharge, and aids in maintenance and service tasks. The valve is durable, easy to operate, and essential for maintaining the proper function and hygiene of a septic system.
