Requirements — • Must be used in a liquid tight sump • Must be used with operational leak detection • Must not come in contact with Brine, Saltwater, Saltwater splash, saltwater spray and/or chlorine • You must visually inspect the flex connector for any defect or damage that may have occurred during shipping • If you find a damaged flex connector, you must return it to FLEX-ING or the authorized distributor • Flex connectors must be replaced when the dispenser has been hit or disrupted • Replace the flex connector if the shear valve has broken. Shear valve must remain properly mounted • Tags are an integral part of the connector and must remain intact • Do not remove tags or labels • Never coat a flex connector with a non -approved coating • Do Not torque flex connector • Install in one plane of motion • Do Not exceed minimum bend radius - Do Not compress or deform • You must be OSHA trained and have OSHA approved equipment Installation Instructions — DO NOT COMPRESS OR EXTEND AXIALLY Corrugated metal hose installed in-line with the longitudinal axis of the piping should not be subject to axial movement. Correct Wrong vmid,d-d � I AVOID SHARP BENDS Use elbows to avoid sharp bends near the end of the metal hose assembly. /Wrong Correct DO NOT ALLOW MOVEMENT IN MULTIPLE PLANES Flexing a metal hose in two separate planes of movement will torque the hose assembly. Always install the metal hose assembly so that flexing occurs in one plane only, the plane in which bending occurs. PROVIDE SUPPORT BEND RADIUS When installing the assembly in a horizontal loop, provide support for the arms to prevent the hose from sagging. with operational leak detection. W" Correct {� �_,__ i rvo Wong \ spm• am MAINTAIN MINIMUM CENTERLINE BEND RADIUS Flex connectors must be used in a liquid tight sump with operational leak detection. W" Correct i DO NOT TORQUE DURING INSTALLATION Do not use to compensate for bolt hole misalign- ment. Floating flanges will help to minimize twisting of the metal hose. Pipe unions will help to reduce twisting during connection to the piping. The use of two wrenches will help to keep the hose from twisting when tightening the pipe union. Correct Wrong in plane out of plane flexing flexing Installation Instruction Tags are an integral part of the flex connector. If you receive a Flex -connector without an installation tag contact us immediately at 1-800-333-3599. Removal of this tag voids the warranty and the UL Listing. All metal hose assemblies are custom made. We do have standard catalog products but they are considered non -stock. All returns require a Return Goods Authorization number and a re -stocking charge will be applied. Some products may be non -returnable.
