Step Seven:
As the tank pressurizes, watch the
pressure gauge. If the pressure switch
is functioning normally, the motors will
shut off at approximately 100 PSI.
Wait fi ve minutes and watch the gauge
to ensure there are no leaks in the
C Series. The system should lose
no more than one PSI per minute.
Step Eight:
Test the purge valve by pressing the
TEST button. If the valve is functioning
normally, you will hear the hiss of air
escaping for approximately ten seconds.

Release air using the purge-valve
TEST button and watch the pressure
gauge to see when the motors start.
The motors should start when the
pressure drops to approximately 80 PSI.
You may have to push the TEST button
several times before enough air is
released to lower the pressure to 80 PSI.
Step Ten:
Open the outlet valve on the tank to
pressurize the piping and wait until the
tank is fully pressurized and the motors
stop running.
Step Eleven:
