With a service life measured in decades, SHONE pneumatic ejectors arethe preferred industry standard. Here are just a few of the many benefits they provide: Superior handling of large solids, scum, and sludgeComprehensive 25 year warrantyUnmatched dependability; frequent check-ups andinspections are unnecessaryNo high speed moving parts to wear or replace; nosprings, diaphragms or bearings to wear outLowest overall costBuilt to last a lifetime, and longerSimple and reliable all mechanical operationHermetically sealed receiver pot.

Through a pilotvalve the motion of the bells actuates a pistonvalve that admits compressed air to thereceiver, pushing liquid out through thedischarge line. In the filling position, thereceiver is vented to atmosphere and the bellsare in the lower position.

3 Weight of theincoming liquid holds the inlet check valveopen, while the weight of liquid in the lift lineholds the discharge check valve the level of the liquid rises above the lowerbell, it is buoyed by the weight of the waterdisplaced. Continuing to rise, the liquid partiallysubmerges the upper bell, trapping air beneathit. The upper bell is given sufficient buoyancyto remove still more weight from the this final decrease in weight, thecounterbalance on the pilot valve Iowers andshifts the pilot slide valve, sending air to theother side of the piston valve. This closes theexhaust connection in the piston valve andadmits compressed air to the pressure of the air on the surface of theliquid is greater than either that of the inlet lineor the discharge lift line. The inlet check valvecloses and the discharge check valve is discharged under pressure into the the receiver empties, first the upper bellloses buoyancy as the liquid level falls below the lower bell becomes exposed, itsadded weight on the rod overcomes thecounterweight.

Refer to the free air requirement tables on pages 4105 through required volume of air must be delivered in no more than 30 seconds to allow time forrefilling the ejector pot within one a stored air system a pressure switch controls each compressor. The air required foreach discharge is supplied in equal amounts from the air compressor and the air storagetank.

A pressure switchcontrols the compressor on mechanically-controlled ejectors. No pressure switch isrequired on electrically-controlled ejectors with tankless air systems. The air compressorruns only during the discharge cycle. The required volume of air delivered by eachcompressor is twice that of a stored air ejectors with two compressors are recommended for installations in whichuninterrupted service is vital. Groups of three or more ejectors may be used with severalcompressors. The compressors must be appropriately sized to meet the air requirementsof one or more 06/06 PAGE 4102 FREE AIR DEMAND OFPNEUMATIC EJECTORSSERIES 4000050100150200250300350500100015002000 FIXTURE UNITSDEMAND - GALLONS PER MINUTECURVE FOR ESTIMATING ejector Private21 Water Closet- flush valve106(Toilet)-flushtank53- pedestal, flush valve10---- wall or stall, flush valve5---- wall or stall, flush tank3---42- flush valve supply---8- flush tank supply---6---2423333 Bathroom GroupBath TubSeparate ShowerheadKitchen SinkService SinkLaundryTrays(1or3)orCombinationFixtu reNUMBER OFFIXT UREFIXTURE AND TYPE OF INSTALLATIONL avatory or Wash BasinUrinalsThe capacity in gpm and the total discharge head aredetermined for Shone Ejectors and Expelsors as follows:1.
