Abstract
A diffuser saddle connection is used for the attachment of diffusers on submerged air laterals in systems that treat municipal and industrial waste water. A top saddle surface and a bottom saddle surface enclose a portion of a feed pipe. A spout attached to the bottom saddle surface is solvent-welded to a tee, which is threadedly engaged to a diffuser. Flexible bushings on a nipple attached to the tee relieve stress on the connection between the diffuser and the diffuser saddle connection. An open end allows water to flow into the diffuser pipe to provide hydrostatic equilibrium and to reduce buoyancy.
