Receiving, Unpacking, and Storage Instructions
2.1
Receiving Equipment
The Nitrogen Generator(s) and all components are securely packed to minimize possibilities of damages
during shipment. The contents of the crate(s) should be inspected upon delivery to assure that no damage has
taken place during transit. Save the carton and wrapping, as it may be necessary to return the generator in
event of shipping damage. If any components are found to be damaged, the carrier should be notified
immediately. The individual pieces should be checked against the packing list. If any discrepancy is found,
contact your local distributor or South-Tek Systems at (888) 526-6284. Please include the model number and
the serial number with all correspondence.
2.2
Unpacking, Moving, and Securing Equipment
The FPS-15000 and FPS-20000 are placed upright and securely bolted down inside of a wooden crate.
Removal of these style generators is easily accomplished by opening the wooden crate and unbolting the unit
from the crate. To lift the Nitrogen Generator out of the box, insert forks through the open slots on the bottom
of the generator
.
Once the equipment is moved to its final destination, it is recommended to anchor the equipment to the
ground. Please follow any guidelines associated to your site in safely securing all equipment.
2.3
Storage Instructions
If the unit is not to be installed until a later date, a safe dry storage location is needed, preferably inside a
controlled environment. Desiccant packets need to be put into the cabinet to keep moisture out of the
electronics. Do not store around moving objects that could fall or damage the unit. If the unit is kept in
storage for a long extended time (over 1 month), then the Oxygen Fuel Cell/Analyzer should be removed,
tapped off, and stored in a controlled environment.
3.
SITE AND UTILITY REQUIREMENTS
The following requirements must be met to enable the nitrogen generator to perform at its rated capacity.
Deviation from these requirements may result in poor performance, injury to persons or machinery, and
voiding of warranty.
3.1
Air Supply
Air supplied to the generator must be between 100
F / 38
C and 33
F / 0.5
C, with a water dew point of
40
F / 5
C or below. Air at temperatures higher or lower than this may cause damage not covered by
warranty. Likewise, moisture content higher than that specified may damage the adsorbent material and void
the warranty. Air and nitrogen pressure vessels must be compatible with the generator. Use of a correctly
sized refrigerant dryer will ensure that the air supplied to the generator will meet the specified standards.
