INSTALLATION

Drain Connection
Using the supplied molded drain hose, connect and clamp the hose to the drain outlet located at the
bottom of the drain pipe. The drain hose should be routed to an appropriate drain system, rated for
a minimum capacity of 2 gallons (7.6 liters) per minute. The RapidStill II’s drain pipe is designed
for gravity drainage. The drain hose and all connections must be below the level of the drain pipe
outlet. The drain hose connection to the drain system must meet all applicable local standards for
drain connections. DO NOT restrict the drain hose or its connections. Restrictions of the
drain line may produce a pressure buildup in the RapidStill II, resulting in damage to the
unit and water leakage.
NaOH Pump Connections
Using either the silicone tubing supplied in the installation kit, or another acceptable type of
tubing, connect the NaOH pump inlet quick connector to the tubing. Connect the connector to the
pump inlet by pressing it straight in until the connector ‘clicks’ and locks in place. The connector
can be removed by depressing the metal button on the body of the connector and pulling the
connector straight out. Place the other end of the tubing into the user-supplied caustic container.
Provisions should be made for the easy removal of the tube from the caustic container, and its
placement into a container of purified water for rinsing of the system at the end of each work
session.
