Abstract

A flow control assembly comprising: a mounting bracket attachable to a wall of a collection chamber, the mounting bracket having an opening extending therethrough; a flow control module detachably coupled to the mounting bracket, the flow control module having an inlet and an outlet, the outlet being aligned with the opening of the mounting bracket; and a gasket having an opening extending therethrough, the opening being smaller than the outlet of the flow control module and the opening of the mounting bracket. The gasket is disposed between the flow control module and the mounting bracket so as to seal the flow control module against the mounting bracket, with the opening of the gasket aligned with the outlet of the flow control module and the opening of the mounting bracket so as to restrict flow out of the flow control module. Also described is a corresponding kit of parts and method of installation.
