Step 8 Secure the detection tubing to the bulkhead by using the clips and screws supplied.
Nylon wire ties may be used in lieu of the clips and screws. Note: Do not exceed a
bend radius of 6 inches during the routing of the tube.

completely down on the nipple fitting on cylinder assembly/ (Note: Do not kink tub-
ing, if kink occurs, remove effected area with razor.
Step 10 Tighten fitting and tube to cylinder using 1/2" (12mm) wrench. Preferred torque
value is 3 - 4-1/2 inch pounds of force. Overtightening may cause tube to rupture.

Note: Label on valve indicates valve and system status. (ACTIVATE)
Step 12 After tubing is routed, and charged, verify there are no apparent damage, and that
the fitting ends of tubing are leak free.
Note: If a leak is detected, close valve, and re-tighten fittings. If leak persists, remove affected
zone and re-install. Ensure valve is open (Activate) at completion of installation.
