Installing Solenoid Enclosures - Martin XHV Air Cannon Operator's Manual

Martin Engineering M3404-05/12
For electrical solenoid valve installations, design and wire
electrical solenoid controls according to NEC Handbook.
Electrical push buttons, timers, and programmable
controllers are available through Martin Engineering.
13. For electrical solenoid valve installations, if using electrical solenoid
controller, install according to instructions provided with controller.
Do not exceed 125 psi (8.62 bar) maximum working pressure
or pressure relief valve will open. Minimum recommended
pressure for most applications is 80 psi (5.52 bar) but lower
pressures can be used. Make sure air supply is filtered and
regulated.
Pressure relief valves of up to 150 psi are available from
Martin Engineering. Consult the Maximum Allowable
Working Pressure (MAWP) on tank's name plate before
substituting a different pressure relief valve. Never use a
pressure relief valve with a set pressure that is higher than the
MAWP of the tank.
Pressure relief valve may relieve at any point between 90%
and 100% of set pressure. Exceeding MAWP can cause tank to
rupture.
14. Connect air supply (M) to check valve.
15. Anchor all pipes and wires to prohibit movement.
16. Operate air cannon as described under "After Installing Air Cannon."
