the assembly in place without 
the ability to loosen or break 
away due to system operation or 
vibration.

Never pressurize equipment 
beyond specified pressures. 
Always pressure test with an 
inert fluid such as water or 
dry nitrogen to avoid possible 
damage or injury in the event of a 
leak or component failure during 
testing.

Always protect adjacent 
flammable material when welding 
or soldering. Use a suitable heat 
shield material to contain sparks 
or drops of solder. Have a fire 
extinguisher readily available.
Please follow standard safe 
practices regarding the handling, 
installing or servicing of 
mechanical equipment.

in the literature, tags and labels 
attached to the equipment and

may cause serious personal 
injury and/or property damage. 
Consult a qualified installer, 
service agency, or your sales 
representative for information or 
assistance. 

The equipment must always be 
properly supported by rigging and 
lifting equipment. Any temporary 
supports used during installation 
or maintenance must be designed 
to adequately hold the equipment 
in place until equipment is 
permanently fastened and set 
in its final location. All supports 
must meet applicable local codes 
and ordinances.
