2.1 INTRODUCTION

This Chapter provides the descriptions and procedures necessary to unpack, inspect and install the

AERCO Benchmark Model BMK 2500 or 3000 Dual Fuel boiler.

2.2 RECEIVING THE UNIT

Each Benchmark Boiler System is shipped as a single crated unit. The shipping weight for these models

is approximately 2200 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.

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 (part no. 24060)

•

2" 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.
