TRI-TECH MEDICAL TSD Series Installation & Operating Instructions Manual

Tri-Tech
Medical Inc.

Introduction

Tri-Tech Medical manifolds are cleaned, tested
and prepared for the indicated gas service and
are built in accordance with the Compressed
Gas Association guidelines. The manifold
consists of a regulator and a header, to provide
an increased supply of gas for the specific
application. Pressure gauges show system
status and alert the need to replace depleted
cylinders. Features of the manifold systems
include a regulator, flexible pigtails (copper
pigtails supplied with oxygen system – per
NFPA 99) with check valves and mounting
hardware.
Warranty:
All Tri-Tech Medical manifolds are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for
the period of five years from date of purchase.
Caution!
Failure to follow the following instructions can result in personal injury or property damage:

Never permit oil, grease, or other combustible materials to come in contact with cylinders,
manifold, and connections. Oil and grease may react with explosive force when ignited while in
contact with some gases – particularly Oxygen and Nitrous Oxide.

Cylinders, header and master valves should always be opened very S-L-O-W-L-Y. Heat of
recompression may ignite combustible materials creating an explosive force.

Pigtails should never be kinked, twisted or bent into a radius smaller then 3 inches. Mistreatment
may cause the pigtail to burst.

Do not apply heat. Oil and grease may react with explosive force when ignited while in contact
with some gases – particularly Oxygen and Nitrous Oxide.

Cylinders should always be secured with racks, chains, or straps. Unrestrained cylinders may fall
over and damage or break off the cylinder valve which may propel the cylinder from its current
position with great force.

Oxygen manifolds and cylinders should be grounded. Static discharges and lighting may ignite
materials in an oxygen atmosphere, creating an explosive force.

Welding should not be performed near Nitrous Oxide piping. Excessive heat may cause the gas to
dissociate, creating an explosive force.
