SCREEN [Refer to OAR 340-737055] <br /> <br />1. The pump shall be placed within a corrosion resistant screen that <br /> extends above the maximum effluent level. The use of a ~creen is <br /> not necessary if the pump does not discharge into pressurized <br /> distribution piping, and the pump kas a non-clog impeller capable <br /> of Passing a 3/4" diameter solid sphere. <br /> 2. The screen shall have at least 12 square feet of surface area, <br /> with 1/Sth inch openings. <br />3. A screen is always required in a dosing septic tank. (See OAR <br /> 340-73-030) <br /> <br />VALVING <br /> <br />1. A gate valve in installed in the pressure line set above the <br /> inlet pipe in a readily accessible location and position, within <br /> approximately 12 inches of the riser cover (see diagram). <br />2. A check valve is installed between the pump and the gate valve. <br />3. A union disconnect of noncorrosive material is installed between <br /> the check and gate valves above the inlet pipe in a readily <br /> accessible location and position, within approximately 12 inches <br /> of the riser cover (see diagram). <br />4. For the purposes of preventing pump air-lock, a 1/8" or larger <br /> orifice is recommended to be installed (drilled) in the pressure <br /> line below the pump "OFF" level. This may be required by the pump <br /> manufacturer's installation instructions. <br /> <br />PRESSURE PIPING <br /> <br />Minimum 2" diameter. <br />M~st meet'or exceed standards for Class 160 PVC 1120 as identi- <br />fied in ASTM Standard D-2241. <br />Piping shall be uniformly supported along the trench bottom. <br />Minimum depth of installation shall be 18" or below frost line <br />whichever is greater. <br />Must be baffled at point of discharge: <br />a. Serial distribution: Enter the first drop box with pressure <br /> line elbowed down below the overflow header outlet. <br />b. Equal distribution: A surge box is recommended with the <br /> pressure pipe elbowed down below the outlet to the master <br /> distribution box. <br /> An 14 gauge, green colored tracer wire shall be placed above <br /> piping when crossing property lines or entering public property <br /> or rights-of-way. A tracer wire should also be installed from the <br /> dosing tank manhole lid to the first box of the disposal field. <br /> <br />SETBACKS [minimum setbacks from dosing tank, with exceptions for pres- <br />sure transport piping] <br /> <br />2. <br />3. <br />4. <br /> <br />50' from creeks, ponds, streams, etc.; springs and wells. <br />25' from downslope ground water interceptors and cuts manmade. <br />10' from water lines, property lines and escarpments. <br /> $' from building foundations, septic tanks and disposal fields. <br /> <br /> <br />
