9. ed downstream of the venturi inlet A partially closed valve in between the venturi inlet and outlet provides the pressure drop needed to power the venturi The three critical parameters in choosing a venturi are the inlet and outlet pressures and the suction lift The Venturi must be capable of evacuating Alt min from the discharge tank when the filter is dirty Suction flow will decrease with an increase in filter pressure as less water will flow through venturi Always minimize the backpressure when installing a venturi This includes eliminating minimizing any elbows on the outlet side of the venturi In addition if the venturi is located more than 0 9 metres above the chlorinator outlet it will be necessary to calculate the effect of the suction lift loss on outlet flow Follow instructions below to perform the Suction Lift calculation if required After the evacuation system has been laid out measure the height differential in metres between the venturi and discharge valve of the Easiflo l chlorinator Use this height differential to calculate the suction lift factor in the formula that follows Suction lift factor 10 37 height differential in metres 10 37 Example height differential 1s 2 metres therefore Suction lift factor 10 37 2 10 37 8 37 10 37 0 81 Take the suction flow F1 and multiply it by the suction lift factor to get the actual outlet flow The formula 1s F1 x suction lift factor
