USER RESPONSIBILITY
The information contained in this Installation and Maintenance Manual, pertains only to the ALERT-2
microprocessor based digital manifold. This product will perform in conformity with the descriptions
contained in this manual when assembled, operated, maintained and serviced in accordance with the
installation instructions provided.
The manifold
must be checked periodically. Parts that are broken, missing, worn, distorted or
contaminated, must be replaced immediately. Should such repair or replacement become necessary,
please contact Amico Corporation or their distributors.
Installing CO2 and N2O manifolds outdoors. Please refer to NFPA Code: 5.1.3.3.1.8 Central
supply systems for nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide shall be prevented from reaching
temperatures lower than the recommendations of the central supply system’s manufacturer,
but shall never be lower than -7°C (20°F) or greater than 54°C (130°F).
All Manifolds should not be repaired or altered without prior written approval by Amico
Corporation or it’s distributors. Failure to comply will void all warranty on the manifold.
Statements in this manual preceded by the words
WARNING, CAUTION, DANGER and NOTE are of
special significance. Please read these sections carefully.
WARNING: denotes steps which can prevent injury.
CAUTION: denotes steps which can prevent damage to equipment.
DANGER: denotes steps which can prevent electrical shock to equipment or to
prevent serious injury and/or death.
CAUTION: This section contains important information necessary for proper installation of the
cylinder banks. Read it carefully before installing cylinder banks.
• Position the wall brackets, if required, to support the Header bars and bolt in place.
• Connect the two high pressure inlet valve / header bar assemblies to the inlet blocks on either side of the cabinet.
• Secure the Header bar assembly by tightening the union nuts onto the inlet blocks. The manifold can support
a maximum 5 x 5 staggered header bar. While the straight header bar contains a wall support bracket on every
second pipe in between each cylinder, for the staggered a support bracket is installed after every 4 – 5
cylinders, unless additional support is required.
• Remove the plug and chain assembly on each of the outlet connections on the cylinder extension bar. Attach
the cylinder pigtails to the header bar connections, while ensuring the check valves are operating in the proper
direction.

WARNING: To avoid contamination with particles or other potentially hazardous materials, keep
pigtails in plastic wrapping until such time as connection to gas cylinder is planned.
When the medical gas piping system has been tested in accordance with NFPA 99, the manifold can then be connected
to it.
The outlet pipes leading from the Amico control cabinet should be connected to their respective pipeline system
connections. The connection to the relief valves should be made with a union (supplied by others) to facilitate
change, if required.
An appropriate sealing compound that is suitable for the gas being transmitted shall be used for threaded connections.
