CHAPTER 2. INSTALLATION
2.1 INTRODUCTION
This Chapter provides the descriptions and procedures necessary to unpack, inspect and install
the AERCO Benchmark Model BMK 6000 Boiler.
2.2 RECEIVING THE UNIT
Each Benchmark Boiler System is shipped as a single crated unit. The shipping weight for the
BMK 6000 Model is approximately
3500 pounds. The unit must be moved with the proper rigging
equipment for safety and to avoid equipment damage. The unit should be completely inspected
for evidence of shipping damage and shipment completeness at the time of receipt from the
carrier and before the bill of lading is signed.
NOTE
AERCO is not responsible for lost or damaged freight. Each unit has a Tip-
N-Tell indicator on the outside of the shipping container. This indicates if the
unit has been turned on its side during shipment. If the Tip-N-Tell indicator
is tripped, do not sign for the shipment. Note the information on the carrier’s
paperwork and request a freight claim and inspection by a claims adjuster
before proceeding. Any other visual damage to the packaging materials
should also be made clear to the delivering carrier.
2.3 MOVING & UNPACKING THE UNIT
While packaged in the shipping container, the unit can be moved using a forklift.
Carefully unpack the unit taking care not to damage the unit enclosure when cutting away
packaging materials
After unpacking, closely inspect the unit to make sure there is no evidence of damage not
indicated by the Tip-N-Tell indicator. Notify the freight carrier immediately if any damage is
detected.
The following accessories come standard with each unit and are either factory installed on the
unit or packed separately with the unit:
• Pressure/Temperature Gauge
• ASME Pressure Relief Valve
• Condensate Drain Trap (part no. 24060)
• 2” Gas Supply Shutoff Valve
When optional accessories are ordered, they may be packed with the unit, factory installed on
the unit, or packed and shipped in a separate container. Any standard or optional accessories
shipped loose should be identified and stored in a safe place until ready for installation or use.
