4.1 Pre-Installation Assembly (Continued)
The adjustable support stand was designed to aid the installation process
of the Hot-Pak into system piping. The adjustable support stand is not a
replacement for system piping supports. System piping must be supported
before and after Hot-Pak in conjunction with the adjustable support stand.
7. With the Hot-Pak assembled, attach the safety relief valve to the open connection
of the shell (Figure 4-3). This valve should be piped to an adequate drain.
8. Now that the Hot-Pak is assembled, the unit can be installed in the piping
network. A visual check of components is recommended before installation.
9. An optional welded tubular frame is available. If ordered with this option, it will be
shipped with the Hot-Pak attached. This frame will require shims under its feet to
compensate for an uneven surface.
4.2 Installation
Before making any piping connections, assure that all piping is clean and free of
any foreign material such as debris or scale. Foreign material in the piping can
cause damage to the unit and/or affect the performance and operation. Manual
shutoff valves should be installed upstream/downstream from all connections to
act as an isolation device. These valves should be in the closed position and
remain so until the installation is complete.
Using the Figure 4-3, follow the steps outlined to install piping for the Hot-Pak.
With any piece of equipment utilizing steam, boiler water, high temperature water
under pressure, and electricity, there is a potential for severe personal injury or
death if proper installation, operation and maintenance procedures are not
followed.
