CSA Design- Certified Equipment Shutoff Valve With 1/8" NPT Tap*

Installation

Continued

WARNING: Use pipe joint sealant that is resistant to liquid petroleum (LP) gas.

We recommend that you install a sediment trap in supply line as shown in Figure 7. Locate sediment trap where it is within reach for cleaning. Install in piping system between fuel supply and heater. Locate sediment trap where trapped matter is not likely to freeze. A sediment trap traps moisture and contaminants. This keeps them from going into heater controls. If sediment trap is not installed or is installed wrong, heater may not run properly.

CHECKING GAS CONNECTIONS

WARNING: Test all gas piping and connections, internal and external or unit, for leaks after installing or servicing. Correct all leaks at once.

WARNING: Never use an open flame to check for a leak. Apply a noncorrosive leak detec- tion fluid to all joints. Bubbles forming show a leak. Correct all leaks at once.

CAUTION: Avoid damage to regulator. Hold gas regulator with wrench when connecting it to gas piping and/or fittings.

CAUTION: Make sure exter- nal regulator has been installed between propane/LP supply and heater. See guidelines un- der Connecting to Gas Supply, page 9.

Pressure Testing Gas Supply

Piping System

Test Pressures In Excess Of 1/2 PSIG

(3.5 kPa)

1. Disconnect heater with its appliance main gas valve (control valve) and equipment shutoff valve from gas supply piping system. Pres- sures in excess of 1/2 psig will damage heater regulator.

2. Cap off open end of gas pipe where equipment shutoff valve was connected.

3. Pressurize supply piping system by either opening propane/LP supply tank valve for propane/LP gas, opening main gas valve located on or near gas meter for natural gas or using compressed air.

4. Check all joints of gas supply piping system. Apply noncorrosive leak detection fluid to gas joints. Bubbles forming show a leak.

5. Correct all leaks at once.

6. Reconnect heater and equipment shutoff valve to gas supply. Check reconnected fit- tings for leaks.

Test Pressures Equal To or Less Than

1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa)

1. Close equipment shutoff valve (see Figure 8, page 11).

Equipped with state-of-the-art GPS technology, it enables farmers to accurately map their fields, monitor crop health, and apply inputs like fertilizers and pesticides with pinpoint accuracy. This not only conserves resources but also minimizes environmental impact, leading to more sustainable farming practices. Additionally, the S26PTA offers real-time data analytics that helps farmers make informed decisions based on current field conditions.

On the other hand, the S26NTA focuses on nutrient management, delivering a comprehensive solution for soil health. Its integrated sensor technology allows for continuous monitoring of soil conditions, assessing moisture levels, pH, and nutrient content. Farmers can access this data through a user-friendly interface, empowering them to optimize their soil management strategies. By fostering healthier soils, the S26NTA contributes to stronger crop development and increased productivity.

Both the S26PTA and S26NTA leverage Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, connecting various sensors and agricultural equipment. This technological integration provides a holistic view of farming operations, ensuring that farmers can monitor and control their systems remotely. The ability to receive alerts and notifications regarding equipment performance or potential issues is invaluable for proactive management.

Moreover, these systems are designed to be user-friendly, with intuitive interfaces that cater to farmers of all tech-savvy levels. Training and support are also integral parts of the package, ensuring that users can maximize the potential of these advanced technologies.

In conclusion, Desa S26PTA and S26NTA exemplify the evolution of agriculture through technology. Their focus on precision farming, nutrient management, and IoT integration offers powerful tools that enhance productivity and sustainability. As the agricultural sector continues to embrace digital transformation, solutions like these will play a crucial role in shaping the future of farming. Farmers adopting these technologies can look forward to optimized operations, improved crop yields, and a positive environmental impact.
