SENTINEL BROOD HEATERS: Assemble the strips
and insert into last tube, see Fig. 10. Edge of strip is
fl
ush with end of tube.
OVAL 80 BROOD HEATERS: Both strips
are factory installed into the oval tube.
At installation, ensure strips are snugly
fi t into oval tube and do not extend past
end of tube.
Assemble the tee, nipple, and cap to the nipple at
the gas inlet of brood heater. See Fig. 12. Tighten
securely. The sediment trap assembly must always be
mounted in a vertical position. Check all connections
for gas leaks using approved gas leak detectors.
1. Assemble the components together. See Fig. 13.
This view shows general assembly of the compo-
nents. The regulator must always be mounted so its
vent, regardless of location on the regulator, is al-
ways pointed downward. Ensure hose is positioned
away from the heater.
2. Tighten all connections securely and check
for gas leaks
