ASSEMBLY
The Metering Filling Station is a mobile unit that requires no
assembly to complete unless a clipper has been shipped with the
unit. It does however ship with a number of loose items that are
required for its use. These items should be stored in a convenient
location.
CLIPPER
If a clipper is supplied with the unit, it must be mounted. Remove it
from the box and connect it to the mounting bar using part
#FA11509 bolt (supplied). Connect one end of the short air hose
(supplied) to the clipper and the other end to the male quick
connect on the end of the MFS.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Compressed Air
This unit requires a constant 25 c.f.m. (cubic feet per minute) at 90 to
100 p.s.i. (pounds per square inch).
The air must be filtered of oil, moisture and dirt. The dew point of
the supply air must be less than 65°F. The Metering Filling Station
is equipped with its' own air oiler system, therefore, no oil should
be added to the supply air. We recommend the compressed air
system be equipped with a drier, filter, and automatic water dump
on the air compressor receiver tank. If the distance between the
tank and the unit is less than 100 feet then a minimum line size of
3/4" is required. A distance of 100 to 300 feet requires a minimum
1" line.
Connect one end of air line (supplied) to the metering filling station
and the other end to the kettle air outlet fitting.
If you do not have a Cleveland kettle with air connection built-in
then you must attach the female quick connect (supplied) to your
air supply.
Electrical
No electrical connection is required unless the unit comes
equipped with a Thermal Assurance Package (TAP) option. This
requires a 115V. 1PH. grounded outlet.
