Vac-Alert VA-2000S is a Safety Vacuum Release System designed for submerged suction pool and spa applications. This SVRS is used on compatible main drain suction lines to help resp ond to high-vacuum conditions caused by suction blockage. ──────────────────────────────────────── Key Features • Vac-Alert VA-2000S is designed for submerged or flooded suction applications where pump suction is more than 24" below the pool water surface. • Safety Vacuum Release System function helps vent air into the suction line when a high-vacuum blockage condition is detected. • Recommended for commercial pool applications where the pump has submerged suction and operates continuously. • Designed for installation on the main drain suction line rather than the common suction header when multiple suction sources are present. • Incorporates a 0.375" orifice opening to help dissipate dynamic suction force in submerged suction applications. • Uses a check valve assembly with a light-duty spring and non-vented poppet for submerged suction system requirements. • Field-adjustable design allows setup to match site-specific hydraulic conditions within approved operating vacuum limits. • Routine testing is required to confirm proper SVRS operation after installation and during ongoing pool use. • Professional installation is required to verify main drain layout, suction plumbing, vacuum level, and code-compliant setup. ──────────────────────────────────────── Product Overview The Vac-Alert VA-2000S Safety Vacuum Release System is intended for pool and spa systems with submerged suction conditions, especially commercial installations where the circulation pump operates continuously. It is designed to help reduce the risk of body or limb suction entrapment by reacting to sudden vacuum increases caused by a blocked main drain line. This unit must be installed vertically on the main drain suction line and adjusted to the specific hydraulic conditions of the system. The VA-2000S is not a substitute for approved suction outlet covers, proper drain design, or professional safety compliance. Correct installation, field adjustment, and repeated operational testing are essential for reliable performance in commercial pool, spa, aquatic facility, and high-use circulation systems. Show more
