Cylinder Rack Assemblies, Free Standing Racks

The cylinder racks are available in four basic styles:
One row/one side
One row/two sides
Two rows/one side
Two rows/two sides
The cylinder racks are shipped disassembled and must be field assembled. When

assembled, the rack should be aligned so that the vertical upright sections are parallel.

It is desirable and recommended to have the rack bolted to the floor and a wall or other

vertical surface.

Figure 6-22. One Row/One Side Cylinder Rack (10 Cylinder Rack Assembly Shown)

Mount the discharge manifold to the rack uprights by means of the U-bolts supplied. Do

not tighten the U-bolts until the cylinders and hosing have been connected. Some minor

height adjustments may be required.
