WARNING
The equipment described in this manual is designed to operate with
LP-gas, a flammable fuel under pressure. The nature of the
application involves inherent hazards that could result in injury.
ONLY a trained and fully qualified person should service this
equipment.
GENERAL
Installation requirements vary according to local, provincial, and state
requirements. Requirements often differ from those provided in NFPA
Pamphlet 58. Consult the authorities having jurisdiction over your installation.
A drawing of a typical installation of a Power Series Vertical vaporizer can be
found below. Install the ASDI Power vaporizer on a firm, level base. Bolt it
securely through the four mounting holes in the vaporizer stand base plate.
Adequately shield the vaporizer installation against vehicular damage. Prior to
making the final piping connections, clean all foreign material from the pipes.
All piping joints should be made up using joint compound approved for LP-Gas.
Carefully test the completed piping connections for leaks using a
COMPRESSED
INERT GAS
and a soapy solution. Carbon dioxide or nitrogen applied at
approximately 100 psig ( 7.03 kg/cm
2
) work well as testing agents. Remember a
bubble indicates a leak! Even a tiny bubble is unacceptable!
NO LEAK IS
TOLERABLE!
Repeat the test process until all leaks are eliminated.
