Advanced Component Engineering

Enhanced O-Ring Sealing System

The kit includes two precision-manufactured O-rings specifically designed for the higher pressures and flow rates of the Resort 40 and 45 series. These O-rings utilise premium EPDM rubber compounds that maintain sealing integrity under the increased hydraulic loads typical of commercial installations.

Heavy-Duty Glue Socket

The included glue socket features reinforced wall thickness to handle the higher pressures generated by these pumps. The socket is precision-engineered to exact tolerances, ensuring optimal integration with 90mm metric PVC systems commonly used in commercial pool installations.

Reinforced Union Nut Assembly

The threaded union nut is engineered with enhanced material specifications to provide the clamping force necessary for reliable sealing under higher system pressures. The robust design ensures long-term reliability in demanding commercial applications.

Hydraulic Optimisation

90mm Flow Characteristics

The 90mm diameter is specifically matched to the flow requirements of the Resort 40 and 45 pumps, ensuring minimal pressure losses through the connection while maintaining optimal flow velocity. This sizing prevents both restriction and excessive turbulence in the connection area.

Pressure Handling Capability

The enhanced component specifications accommodate the higher operating pressures generated by these more powerful pumps, ensuring reliable operation under all normal operating conditions including high-head applications.

Flow Transition Design

The internal geometry provides smooth flow transitions that minimise hydraulic losses and turbulence, maintaining the pump’s design efficiency through the connection points.

Pump Series Compatibility

Resort 40 Integration

The 2.20kW Resort 40 pump generates significant flow rates that require the 90mm connection size for optimal hydraulic performance. This connection set ensures proper integration without restricting the pump’s performance characteristics.

Resort 45 Application

The 2.60kW Resort 45 pump operates at even higher flow rates and pressures, making the robust design of this connection set essential for maintaining system integrity and performance.

Universal Design Benefits

The single connection set serving both pump models simplifies inventory management while ensuring optimal performance for each application.
