In an emergency you must know how to turn off gas and electricity. Find out how before the emergency.

WARNING

Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, shut off the manual gas valve to the furnace before shutting off the electrical supply. Failure to do so can cause a fire or explosion which could result in damage, injury or death.

4.A GAS AND ELECTRICAL SHUT-OFF DEVICES

1.GAS SHUT-OFF DEVICES

In an emergency, you may not be able to reach all the gas shut-off devices. You must know how to turn off gas using any one of the three manual types:

a.Manual Shut-off Switch on Gas Control Gas control location is behind the access panel on the right side. See Lighting and Shutdown Instructions in Section 5 for more information.

To turn gas control furnace knob OFF, turn it to “OFF” position. Use this same procedure when you leave a vacation home vacant and do not want the furnace to operate.

b.Manual In-Line Shut-off Valve in Gas Supply Line.

This valve could be next to furnace. Figure 1 shows a typical installation.

Normally, gas is ON when you turn the shut-off valve handle parallel to gas pipe. Gas is OFF when you turn handle 90° from gas pipe.

c.Manual Shut-off Valve at Natural Gas Meter or Propane (LP) Gas Tank.

Normally, natural gas is ON when you turn shut-off parallel to gas pipe. Gas is OFF when you turn shut-off 90° from gas pipe. Some valves require a wrench or other tools.

2.ELECTRICAL SHUT-OFF DEVICES

In an emergency, you may not be able to reach both of your electrical shut-off devices. Therefore, you must know how to turn off electricity using either one of them. Here are two types of electrical shut-off devices:

a.There should be an electrical shut-off device located on or immediately adjacent to the furnace.

b.There should be a separate circuit breaker or fuse serving only the furnace located in the main circuit breaker or fuse panel.

Know its location and make sure this device is clearly identified.

WG4S, WG5S, WG3S specifications

Bard WG3S, WG5S, and WG4S are advanced wind turbine systems designed to harness wind energy efficiently and sustainably. These turbines are part of a growing movement towards renewable energy solutions, aiming to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and mitigate climate change.

The WG3S, a compact and versatile model, has been engineered for optimal performance in a variety of wind conditions. Its notable feature is the composite rotor blades that maximize aerodynamic efficiency while minimizing noise. The turbine also incorporates a state-of-the-art pitch control system, allowing for real-time adjustments to blade angles, thus enhancing energy capture and reducing mechanical stress during high wind events.

The WG5S model takes performance to the next level with its larger rotor diameter, increasing the swept area significantly compared to its predecessors. This enhanced design enables it to generate more electricity, making it ideal for both onshore and offshore installations. The WG5S also features a sophisticated control system, utilizing advanced software algorithms to predict wind patterns and dynamically adjust operational parameters. This ensures optimal performance under varying environmental conditions.

Meanwhile, the WG4S serves as a robust mid-range option that balances power output and cost-effectiveness. It employs advanced materials in its construction, offering durability against harsh weather conditions while maintaining a lightweight structure. One of its key characteristics is the integration of smart technology, allowing for remote monitoring and maintenance scheduling. This helps to optimize uptime and minimizes operational costs.

All three models utilize cutting-edge technologies in their generators, including permanent magnet generators that provide efficient energy conversion with reduced energy losses. Additionally, they are equipped with advanced gearbox systems that facilitate smooth energy transmission and enhance reliability.

In conclusion, Bard's WG3S, WG5S, and WG4S wind turbines exemplify the latest advancements in wind energy technology. Their main features, focusing on performance, efficiency, and sustainability, position them as leading solutions in the renewable energy sector. With a commitment to innovation, Bard is at the forefront of providing effective and scalable wind energy systems that contribute to a cleaner, greener future.
