WARNING: Installation, usage and maintenance of this product
must be in compliance with all Engineered Controls International,
Inc. instructions as well as requirements and provisions of NFPA
#54, NFPA #58, DOT, ANSI, all applicable federal, state, provincial
and local standards, codes, regulations and laws.
Inspection and maintenance on a periodic basis is essential.
Installation and maintenance should be performed only by qualified
personnel.
Be sure all instructions are read and understood before installation,
operation and maintenance. These instructions must be
passed along to the end user of the product.
CAUTION: Contact or inhalation of liquid propane, ammonia
and their vapors can cause serious injury or death! NH3 and
LP-Gas must be released outdoors in air currents that will insure
dispersion to prevent exposure to people and livestock. LP-
Gas must be kept far enough from any open flame or other source
of ignition to prevent fire or explosion! LP-Gas is heavier than
air and will not disperse or evaporate rapidly if released in still
air.
1. 3119A and 3120 Unloading Adapters are designed to provide
a simple, safe means of container evacuation provided these
instructions are carefully followed.
NOTE: On 3120 models, it is recommended that a 3 /4" shut-off valve
be installed at opening “G” – between the unloading adapter and
the hose.
2. The adapter makes use of the crank and lever principle to force
the filler valve to the open position when it is necessary to evacuate
liquid from an LP-Gas container.
3. These unloading adapters are usable with the 2418, 2550, 2555,
2557, 1475, 2593, 2594, 8593, 8594 and 8475 MultiValves and
the 3178, 3179, 7579 and 7579P quick filler valves.
4. The filler check valves of the 3178, 2418, 2550 and current 2555
and 2557 (see paragraph 9 (f) for earlier production of 2555 and
2557) require only 1 /4" movement to open both upper and lower
check valves. Such filler valves are identified by a single V-groove
cut across the hex corners of the body.
5. Valves 1475, 2593, 2594, 8593, 8594, 8475, 3179, 7579 and 7579P
require a movement of approximately 1 /2" to fully open both upper
and lower filler check valves. Since 1 /4" movement of the upper
check valve is required before the lower check valve is opened,
the lower check can still close even though upper check is held
open by foreign matter. Such filler valves are identified by a double
V-groove cut across the hex corners of the body.
6. To allow for the interchangeable use of this unloading adapter with
all of the filler valves referred to above, it is designed so that when
the lever is rotated counter-clockwise from the “up” to the “down”
position, the crank moves plunger “D” approximately 1 /2". Lever
“A” should therefore, be rotated counter-clockwise (to the left) when
used with 1475, 2593, 2594, 8593, 8594, 8475, 3179, 7579 and
7579P valves.
7. When the lever “A” is rotated clockwise (to the right) the crank moves
plunger “D” approximately 1 /4". Clockwise rotation of lever “A” from
the “up” to the “down” position should therefore be used when
the adapter is fitted to the 3178, 2418, 2550, 2555 and 2557 valves.
8. Before attempting to use the adapter it is of vital importance that
you first make sure:
a. That the filler valve on a container to be evacuated is equipped
with a dip pipe extending to the bottom of the container.
b. That if the container is equipped with a filler valve with a
supplementary back pressure check valve - the design of the
combination must be such that the lower valve (back pressure
check) also opens when the upper valve (filler) is pushed open.
