CAUTION
Pre-charge prior to installation in the system. Do not adjust the air
pre-charge of the expansion tank with the system under pressure.
The air pre-charge should only be adjusted under zero system
pressure.
If necessary, adjust the pressure reducing valve to the expansion
tank pre-charge as determined in Step 2.
IMPORTANT!
• A pressure relief valve sized and installed in accordance with
local codes must be incorporated in the systems requiring a
combined temperature and pressure safety relief valve. The
temperature and pressure safety relief valve should be sized and
installed in accordance with local codes.
• Never plug a Safety Relief Valve.
