NSTALLATION
Uncrating
Remove the shipping crate and packing material carefully from the burst supply
cabinet. Do not discard the packing material until all the items on the packing
lists have been accounted for.
Site Preparation
The testing area requires floor drains.
Positioning the Burst Test Cabinet
When transferring the burst supply cabinet from the shipping pallet or from
location to location, use moving blankets between the cabinet and the moving
machinery. Follow accepted practices to avoid damage to the equipment and
personnel.
Use a fork truck to remove the burst supply test cabinet from the shipping pallet.
Position the cabinet in the desired location and level the cabinet. Verify that the
by-pass valve, located inside the cabinet, is in the Off position. Be sure to allow
adequate floor space for maintenance personnel to have easy access to the system.
Connecting
1.
Connect the water supply line into the “water supply” inlet port on the side of
the cabinet with the customer provided shut off hand valve. It is
recommended that additional water filters be added as required to provide
clean water to the system.
WARNING!
Always connect the water supply first, before applying the compressed air
to the system. The pumping system will start as soon as air pressure is
supplied to the pump. Damage to the pump may result if the pump is run
dry. A 40 psi minimum and 100 psi maximum water supply pressure is
recommended. Use ½ inch I.D. fittings. Using smaller fittings could
reduce the capacity of the pump.
2.
Connect the high-pressure supply outlet and return to the burst fixture. Use
only suitable high-pressure hose, tubing and fittings with appropriate psi rating
(typically 3000 or 5000 psi depending on the system).
