C. Flashing Light Kit (Model PTS-FLK)

Up until January 1, 1997 we provided an audio-visual alarm (Model LAS-AVA) with

8047-125-000, Model AVA), but it is no longer part of the System. NFPA 1901-96
requires flashing lights. These lights must flash unless the System is in the stored

position.

OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT

The following equipment may be added to any PTS System:

A. Tank Cover Hardware (Model PTS-TCH)

Tank cover hardware should be ordered when a metal cover is added to the PTS

System. Failure to use our tank cover hardware will void our warranty in the event
of damage.
 See pages 18 & 19.

B. Flashing Light Kit (Model PTS-FLK)

Flashing light kit may be added to systems purchased prior to January 1, 1997. See
