Installation and Setup
A sketch or layout diagram of the system may help you when installing the
components. The component locations will be determined by the tank inlet hoses,
the tank switcher outlet connection, and the distance to the control box. The Tank
Switcher Manifold Assembly also needs a mounting structure and a place to
mount the control box.
1. For most systems the tank switcher
manifold assembly should be mounted
using channel steel and clamps around
the vacuum jacketed pipe section. The
tank switcher mounting needs to be
capable of holding a minimum of 150 lbs
(70 kg). 13/16” channel steel strut should
be large enough to support the manifold.
The photo shows an example of a well mounted tank assembly. Be sure to
mount the manifold in three places (shown with arrows on in the photo), one
clamp on each of the three ‘legs’.
2. The Control Box can be located up to 5
meters (16 feet) from the Tank Switcher
Manifold with the standard cable. Other
length cables are available from Technifab.
Refer to the specifications section for the
control box electrical and temperature
requirements.
3. Mount the control box using the holes, four total, at the
top and bottom of the control box. Connect the control
cable to the bottom of the control box and to the junction
box on the manifold assembly, using proper cable
routing/mounting as needed. The control box comes with
a standard NEMA 5-15R male power connector at the
end of the cable. Do not plug the unit in at this time.
