Installation
AK 45
Install the AK so that discharge is to open drain (without back pressure), preferably in a vertical line
with downwards flow.
The AK 45 can be installed in any plane with flow in the direction of the arrow. When the valve is
installed in a horizontal line, the cover must be on top.
If it is necessary to install the AK 45 in a horizontal line, the pipe on the discharge of the trap should
include a 90° downwards bend, Fig. 3, Fig. 4.
