Connecting to the application
Once the LEDs have turned green, the generator is ready to be connected to the
application(s).
The pressure in the internal storage tanks must be allowed to dissipate
before connecting the generator to the application(s)
Attach the ¼” compression fitting to the outlet of the generator. Using suitable ¼”
tubing, and connect the outlet of the generator to the inlet on the application.
Please refer to the Tubing Lengths section, to ensure correct tubing is being used.
Once the tubing is connected to the application, please ensure that it
is thoroughly checked for being leak-tight. Even the slightest leak in
the gas supply between the generator and the application can lead to
a reduction in efficiency.
Tubing Lengths
The diameter of the tubing which will be connected to the gas outlet is
important and is determined by the length of tubing required. Failure
to follow these recommendations could lead to pressure between
generator and application.
