distance of 24 inches from the
bottom of the tank (
Figure 3-1
).
2. Install the pick-up and fuel line.
• Ensure that the lines do not make
contact with sharp edges, moving
parts or exhaust heat. Consult
Section 7.17, Hose Installation
Guide
for assistance in running
hose lines.
• Units must have a 70 micron fuel
filter in line before the pump.
Due to the length involved for the fuel line
assembled from the engine to the vehicle-
accessed fuel tank, the fuel line may
accumulate air. There is a bleed nut located
on the engine for the purpose of siphoning
off this air.
3.7 INSTALLING THE REMOTE
CONTROL PANEL
For remote instrument panel mounting,
install the remote control panel at the
desired location on the service body and
route the control trunk-line to the location
where the unit will mount. Ensure that all
sharp edges on the trunk-line contacts are
shielded or grommet-protected, and that
there are no excessively sharp ends in the
trunk-line. Ensure the trunk-line does not
come in contact with exhaust parts.
3.8 INSTALLING (OPTIONAL)
REMOTE AIR TANK
The air tank and subsequent piping must
have a minimum rating of
200 psi
; if tank is
larger than six inches (6”) OD, it must be
ASME rated. To determine the location of a
remote-mounted air tank, consider the
following:
• Air system piping relation to the
ANA 150 Series machine.
• Hindrance to any access or
operation of other standard or
mounted vehicle system(s),
including any underdeck or
accessible wiring, piping, etc.
• Service output location.
To prepare and install the remote air tank,
follow these guidelines.
For compressor discharge piping, use a 1/2”
minimum, S-TW Series hose (that meets
SAE 100R14A), extruded PTFE tube with
stainless steel single wire braid. The working
pressure and temperature ratings should be:
200 psi air @ 400°F.
IMPORTANT
The Vanair-supplied fuel pump includes an
internal check valve; do not add an
external check valve.

NOTE
When determining the location of the air
tank, keep in mind that the drain valve will
need to be accessed on a frequent (daily)
basis.
NOTE
Ensure that the lines do not make contact
with sharp edges, moving parts or exhaust
heat. Consult
