Setup Instructions
These instructions are intended as a general guideline for a typical system
installation. If you feel you have an unusual situation or would like additional assistance
in determining the appropriateness of a particular setup, please do not hesitate to
contact us.
See Page 2 for details on how that can be done.
1.) Connect a Ball Valve Between Your Air Supply and the Feed Air (Black) Hose
Provided -
This valve will be used to shut off the air supply to the generator for filter
replacement. If you do not have a valve on hand at this time, skip this step as
one can be installed at this point at a later date.
OGSI does stock valves that can be used for this purpose. If you need one you
can reach our sales department at (716) 564-5165.
2.) Connect the Feed Air to the Ball Valve Mentioned Above (or directly to) Your Air
Supply and to the Left Side of the Generator -
On systems this size, a hose is not included as installation setups vary greatly.
The left side of the generator has a fitting that is labeled ‘Air In’. This fitting will
be either a 37
°
-flared JIC fitting or a male pipe thread depending on which model
you have. Connections to these are readily available worldwide through the
Parker distribution network or from
OGSI .
3.) Unroll and Direct the Filter Drain (Clear) Hose into a Bucket or Floor Drain (if
available) -
This drain hose is provided with each unit and can be used to alleviate the
potential problem of having water and material trapped by the filter blown directly
on to the floor. If this hose is not going to be used it should be disconnected from
the machine and discarded.
4.) Connect the Oxygen (Green) Hose to the Oxygen Outlet Connection on the Right
Side of the Generator and to the Oxygen Storage Tank -
The green hose is the Oxygen hose. The Oxygen Outlet Connection is on the
right hand side of the machine and is Labeled ‘O
2
Out’. This Oxygen Hose has
threaded fittings that swivel on each end of it. Either side can be connected to
the generator, as the fittings are the same on each end.
If your storage tank was purchased from OGSI , it will have an appropriate fitting
in place for this connection. It will be attached to the same tee fitting that holds
the safety relief valve. If the tank was not purchased from
OGSI , you must insure
that it has the appropriate size fitting to accept this hose assembly.
OGSI can provide these fittings, if necessary.
