2.1 INTRODUCTION

This Chapter provides the descriptions and procedures necessary to unpack, inspect and install
the AERCO Benchmark Model BMK 750 and BMK 1000 Heating Boiler.

2.2 RECEIVING THE UNIT

Each Benchmark Heating Boiler System is shipped as a single crated unit. The shipping weights
for the BMK 750 and BMK 1000 Models are approximately 1100 (499 kg) and 1200 pounds
(544 kg), respectively. 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.
AERCO is not responsible for lost or damaged freight. Each unit
has a Tip-N-Tell indicator on the outside of the crate. 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 UNPACKING

Carefully unpack the unit taking care not to damage the unit enclosure when cutting away
packaging materials
After unpacking, a close inspection of the unit should be made to ensure that there is no
evidence of damage not indicated by the Tip-N-Tell indicator. The freight carrier should be
notified immediately if any damage is detected.
The following accessories come standard with each unit and are either packed separately within
the unit's shipping container or are factory installed on the unit:
•
Pressure/Temperature Gauge
•
ASME Pressure Relief Valve
•
Condensate Drain Trap (P/N 24441)
•
1" Natural Gas Supply Shutoff Valve
When optional accessories are ordered, they may be packed within the unit's shipping
container, 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.
