l
If not already connected, screw the T-fitting, and the connected assembly, onto the
gas outlet at the rear of the gas box, carefully tightening it with an appropriate
sized spanner.
l
If only one gas is to be used, ensure that the blanking plug is fully inserted into
the top of the T-fitting.
l
If multiple gases are to be used, a connecting pipe should be fully inserted into
the top of the T-fitting (see section 5.3.3).
l
Fully insert one end of the braided hose into the male connector and tighten the nut
1.25 turns.
l
Connect the other end of the braided hose to the product/vessel:
l
If the product/vessel to which the gas package is to be connected has a 6mm
bulkhead fitting, the other end of the braided hose can be attached directly
into that fitting.
l
If the product/vessel to which the gas package is to be connected has a stem
fitting/6mm inlet pipe, then the 6mm union can be used to connect this with
the end of the braided hose.
l
Fully insert the stem end of the braided hose into the union connector,
then tighten the nut 1.25 turns.
Note:
To reduce the risk of accidental asphyxiation, any gas that escapes
via the pressure relief valve should be vented away from the operator's
working environment e.g. into a ventilation system or outside of the
building.
