| The Product Saver leg brackets
must be welded to storage tank or bolted to a concrete pad so there
is always a gravity flow into the system. There must not be traps
in the piping to the system. The function of the storage tank water
draw-off valve must be inspected before installation of the Product
Saver system to verify the fluid flow can be controlled. Piping
and components ahead of Product Saver must be compatible with petroleum
products.
The Product Saver must always
be completely emptied after each application. Sight glasses should
be cleaned periodically to assure proper visual control. Manual
pump handle may be reinstalled at any angle for pumping convenience
by removing the external lock nut from the pump shaft.
Vent must always be clean of any
foreign debris. All valves should be periodically serviced to
assure their proper function. Diffuser unit may be periodically
cleaned by removing diffuser cap on opposite side of tank inlet,
and removing any foreign debris that may impair the flow through
the product saver.
