Algas-SDI Operations & Maintenance Manual – 54264 

SCHEDULE FOR ALL MODELS OF MIXERS OPERATED ON STANDBY 

Use this maintenance schedule if your LPG-vapor/air mixer is used only for 
standby operation. 

Table 6 - Maintenance Schedule 

Description 

Monthly 

Every 6 Months 

Annually 

Vapor Motive Pressure 

Check setpoint 

 

 

Heating Value Adjustment 

Check gas quality 
(every two months) 

 

 

Mixed Gas Operating Pressure 
Adjustment 
and Dead Band 

Check setpoint 

 

 

Low Vapor Pressure Switch 

 

 

Check setpoint 

High Mixed Gas 
Pressure Switch 

  

Check 

setpoint 

Solenoid Valves 
(Diaphragm and  
Piston types) 

Operate system to ensure that 
valves open and close properly.

 

Inspect and clean 
internal parts.  Replace 
worn or damaged parts 

Venturi Check Valves 

 

 

Pressure check- remove 
cage and silencer if 
installed, put tank under 
pressure and check valve 
for leaks with a soapy 
solution.  Replace the 
valve if there are any 
leaks. 

*Pressure Regulators 

 

Check setpoints 

Inspect disk assembly, 
seat ring, and diaphragm.  
Replace if necessary. 

Control Box 
Electrical Components 

 

 

Open box.  Check for 
corrosion and moisture 
damage. 

Unit Connections (all) 

 

 

Leak test. 

Flame Arrestor 

 

 

Remove from pressure 
switches inside control 
box.  Clean with general 
solvent, blow dry with air, 
and replace. 

* The pressure regulator has a vent assembly, which is equipped with a relief indicator.  The cap for the relief 
indicator snaps over the vent assembly opening.  If the relief valve opens wide, exhaust gas pops the cap off the 
screen vent assembly opening indicating a problem with the regulator.  If the cap pops off, inspect the disk 
assembly and seat ring, replace them if necessary.  

Refer to the Fisher 627 Series manual in the appendix for 

detailed maintenance instructions.

 

CAUTION 

 

Whenever any component or fitting in the system is removed and 
replaced or reinstalled, the complete system must be leak tested.  
NO LEAKS ARE TOLERABLE!
