HOW TO LOCATE THE POSITION OF THE <br /> 71SO AT 95 % TANK CAPACITY Measuring Stick <br /> The length of the upper tube and the placement of -- — <br /> the 71 SO valve body determine the shut-off point . <br /> Following the standard instructions for the OPW <br /> 71 SO will provide for initial shutoff at 95 % . In all <br /> r . <br /> cases , the upper tube length must be a minimum of <br /> 6 - 1 /2 " plus the length of the riser pipe . All length <br /> measurements are in inches .
