Safety is a matter of common sense - - a matter of thinking before acting. Professional installers have training and
experienced practices for handling electrical, sheet metal, and material handling processes. Use them.

caused by galvanic corrosion voids Electro Industries’ warranty.
Reference drawing BX301
The plumbing components and piping layout shown on drawing BX3Ø1 have been very carefully picked and should
be plumbed as shown. When following this diagram, the water fill procedure becomes very simple and almost
guarantees the removal of all air or prevents air locking problems. The arrangement of these components
guarantees installation and initial operating success.
The key mechanical components required include:
