SAFETY INFORMATION (Continued)
COMPRESSED AIR
Warning: Ensure that the feed air pressure does
not exceed 160 psig.
The user is ultimately responsible for selecting the
correct air supply system and components. They
are also responsible for maintaining the system so
it does not cause damage to the NTO-200.
NITROGEN AND OXYGEN
The NTO-200 generates nitrogen as a product. Oxygen enriched air is
released as waste.
Warning
Nitrogen can cause suffocation. Oxygen enriched
air leads to increased risk of fire in the event of
contact with flammable products. Make sure that
there is adequate ventilation at all times!
Do not install the NTO-200 in an area where
explosive substances may be present.
OTHER IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Warning: There are no user maintainable parts on
the NTO-200. The grip is part of the pressure
chamber and so it should not be disassembled.
Failure to follow these warnings could result in an
unexpected release of pressure, causing serious
injury or damage.
Use of the NTO-200 in any other way than
specified in this manual could result in an
unexpected release of pressure, causing serious
injury or damage.
Warning: When handling, installing, or operating
the NTO-200, user must use safe engineering
