Testing for Leakage

Precautions

The Amico Automatic Gas Manifolds are designed in accordance with the current revision of NFPA 99.

There are three categories of Amico manifolds depending upon the delivery pressure. The following gas types are avail-

able for each delivery pressure:

55 PSI Delivery Pressure

Oxygen, Nitrous Oxide, Medical Air, Carbon Dioxide, Helium, Argon

100 PSI Delivery Pressure

Oxygen, Medical Air, Carbon Dioxide

170 PSI Delivery Pressure

Nitrogen, Instrument Air

* The intermediate pressure valve of the “In Use” bank is dependent upon the dome bias pressure. Variations from the 55

PSI delivery pressure will affect the intermediate pressure reading.
