Instructions for Coupling Furnaces (Refer to Figures 6A,
6B, 6C and 6D)
1. Attach the tie plate to the first furnace using threaded socket assem-
blies. Tie plate must be positioned below the hanger angles. Secure
fasteners firmly.
2. Move the second furnace into position next to the first furnace. Tie
plate must be below the hanger angle. Secure the tie plate to the
hanger angle using the 3/8-16 bolts, the washers, and the spotweld
nuts on the tie plate.
3. Position the filler plates to furnaces as shown in Figure 6A. Using a
filler plate as a template, drill 1/8" diameter holes. Attach filler plates
using the sheet metal screws provided. Offset of filler plate allows
alignment with unit duct flanges. See Figure 6C.
4. Coupled units require access panels in the top or bottom of the
outlet duct for limit control service. See Figure 6D and Paragraph
11.
