Do you want the INT or the SS?

The output on the 110INT is 40mm.

INT for internal and SS for Sump Saver. Both in sump skimmers but the INT has the pump on the side while the SS usually has the pump inside the skimmer.

There is no diagram for the valve. You literally just screw the plunger in and place the cap. Test it by turning the nob to the right to tighten it and drop the plunger and to the left to open and lift the plunger.
