Installation on the tank
•
Do not forget the gasket when
positioning the BM 700 on the tank
nozzle flange. Align BM 700 and gasket,
slightly tighten nuts on stud bolts (by
hand).
•
Press shielding strip C* in the gap
between tank and BM 700 flanges and
secure with strap retainer S* (both
items included with supply).
•
Strap retainer S* must fit closely and
overlap both flanges.
* only required for European radio approvals
•
Tighten down stud bolt nuts firmly. The
tightening torque is dependent upon the
strength properties of the stud bolts and
the pressure rating of the tank.
C* = shielding strip B = BM 700 flange
