A = minimum distance between towers
B = stopper length
L1* = distance from stopper/tower to work area - use standard industry & company practices to minimize heat transfer & sparks
reaching the inflatable stopper
L2** = distance from stopper/tower to work area - measurement is a guide only, follow manufacturer’s fitting recommendations
NOTE: Always inflate stopper #2 first, if possible.
