- Port sizes: 1½″ union at pump end, 1½″ female threaded intake.
- Includes hinged lid, O-ring seal and debris basket for service access.
- Constructed of UV-resistant pool-rated thermoplastic designed for enduring service in pool water.
Installation Notes
Shut off power to pump and relieve system pressure. Drain suction side if needed. Remove old trap assembly, clean mounting flange and inspect O-ring condition. Install new 310-5400 assembly, ensuring proper alignment of ports and secure union connection. Prime pump and resume circulation, verify no leaks and correct suction flow into the basket area.
Maintenance Tip
Check the trap assembly during each service visit. Remove the basket, rinse debris, inspect for cracks around housing and ensure lid clamp seals properly. Replace the trap if any structural damage or persistent leaks are found to maintain pump performance and avoid damage.
