CAUTION

The weight of all piping must be
properly supported. Failure to support
piping may result in equipment
damage and/or system leakage.

Piping must take into consideration
potential for damage as a result of
expansion, contraction, vibration, or
other movements.

Dirt, water, and/or other debris in the
piping system after welding may result
in equipment failure.

also result in thermal fl uid breakdown. Fulton heaters are equipped with a
temperature limit switch (located on the front of the panel box) to prevent
this from occurring.

A high temperature limit switch is an over temperature safety device.
If the high temperature limit shuts down the unit, the manual reset
button on the limit switch must be pressed. The reset button on the
fl ame programmer must also be pressed to reset the unit before it can be
restarted. See Figure 7. Refer to Maintenance section of this manual for
troubleshooting activities.

Piping Specifi cations

For piping, the basic considerations are: the design temperature, the pressure
retained by the pipe, the fl uid in the pipe, the load resulting from thermal
expansion or contraction, impact or shock loads imparted such as water hammer,
external loads, wind loads and vibration from equipment.
