OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES
Failure of the owner to prevent equipment damage by complying with the procedures outlined below and in the
User Manual will void the Nitrox System warranty.
Installation:
•
All set up requirements and procedures provided in the Nitrox System User Manual must be followed in
their entirety including supply air cleanliness, Compressor preparation, and installation of the Nitrox
System.
•
Supply air to the Membrane must be properly filtered to CGA Grade D air quality or better to prevent
damage to the Membrane. Air quality testing of the supply air should be performed periodically and
documented to assure compliance.
•
If there is any doubt regarding the suitability of a HP or LP Compressor for compressing Nitrox, contact
Nuvair or the Compressor manufacturer before you connect your Nitrox System.
•
If an existing HP or LP Compressor is to be used for compressing Nitrox, all traces of the old lubricant
must be removed and replaced with a Nitrox Compressor Lubricant approved by Nuvair.
•
Electrical wiring and connections should be made by a qualified electrician in accordance with all
national and local electrical codes.
•
Do not change the temperature setting on the Heater Thermostat Control. Changes in temperature
settings may cause Membrane damage.
•
To prevent Compressor damage, only use the Compressor Intake Hose provided. If a longer hose is
required, contact Nuvair for assistance.
•
Compressors must be provided adequate ventilation to operate properly and prevent heat damage.
This requires an ambient temperature below 100
o
F (38
o
C), sufficient clearance from adjacent walls, and
proper rotation direction.
Operation:
•
Do not use the Nitrox System to supply a HP or LP Compressor with Nitrox mixtures containing more
than 40% oxygen. Compressing higher concentrations of oxygen may cause severe Compressor
damage.
•
Do not pump Nitrox mixtures at pressures above the Compressor manufacturer’s rating, and never
above 3600 psi (250 bar). Compressing Nitrox at higher pressures may cause severe HP Compressor
damage.
•
To prevent Membrane damage, drain all low pressure filter and volume tank condensate on a daily
basis.
•
If you become aware of an operational fault, stop using the equipment immediately and contact Nuvair
for assistance.
Maintenance:
•
Change low pressure filter elements on a schedule determined by filter capacity and ambient
temperature and humidity. Contact Nuvair if you need assistance establishing a schedule for your
equipment and location.
•
Replace Membrane System Air Intake Filter on a regular basis to prevent flow obstruction.
•
Keep all nuts, bolts, fittings, connectors, and clamps tight.
•
Keep a service record book showing that regular maintenance work has been carried out. If a warranty
claim becomes necessary, it will aid in demonstrating that damage has not been caused by insufficient
maintenance. Proof of maintenance may be required prior to determining the validity of a warranty
request.
