The Large-Opening ArtWorks® is a single-sided, recessed assembly that allows multiple medical gas outlets
and electrical devices to be discretely hidden behind a moveable picture. Vertical movement of this assembly is
counterbalanced and moves on precision ball bearing slides. The attached artwork (by others) slides up to completely
reveal the interior of the unit, providing maximum access to the components within. See table below for unit widths:
6830 Standard Large-Opening ArtWorks® 34"
6830-W Wide Large-Opening ArtWorks® 45"
Units allow for the use of detachable flowmeters, suction regulators and vacuum bottle slide brackets for concealed
bedside storage. An optional lower electrical console may be included if indicated on the project drawings.
A downward-facing interior light is included with the unit, which comes on automatically to illuminate the interior
when the artwork is raised to its open position. The light may also be switched on and off while the unit is open.
The unit’s vertical side frames are constructed of 16-gauge galvanized steel (90" tall) with horizontal steel drywall
support members. Units include sound-dampening material on the back of the recessed compartment. Large-
Opening ArtWorks® assemblies are UL listed and NFPA 99 compliant.
Figures 1 and 2 identify components of the Large-Opening ArtWorks® assembly.

1. Single-service termination points are provided for each gas service. Medical gas piping connections are to be
made in accordance with NFPA 99 before installation of the drywall.
2. Prior to brazing the pipes together, the component housing should be inspected to ensure that it is set for
proper drywall installation. Brazing pipes together with the component housing out of position could
create additional stresses on the piping when adjusted for drywall finish.
Medical gas systems provided by Modular Services have been cleaned, purged, brazed, blown down, labeled, and
tested for cross connections and leaks in accordance with the most recent edition of NFPA 99. They are certified
tobecomplianttoalloftheserequirementsandtobeleakfree.Themedicalgassysteminstallerisresponsible
for connecting this manufactured assembly to the pipeline in compliance with all applicable sections of the latest
edition of NFPA 99.
During the process of connection to the pipeline there are multiple potential sources of contamination or damage
to seals which could result in leaks. First, although Modular Services takes care to protect the ends of our piping
system and the openings of station inlets/outlets to avoid contamination, it is at this point that these contamination
prevention measures must be removed which exposes the system to the construction environment. Secondly,
instrumentation must be inserted into the station inlets/outlets to properly purge the system while it is being
brazed in accordance with the requirements of NFPA 99. Lastly, station inlet/outlet front body assemblies (if
product is shipped with them installed), which are only rated to a maximum of 100 PSI, must be removed to
conducttheinitialpressuretestwhichisrequiredtobeconductedataminimumof150PSI.Afterthistestis
complete the front bodies must be reinstalled to conduct the standing pressure test.
InaccordancewithNFPA99section5.1.12.2,theinstallerisrequiredtotestthedistributionpipinginitsentirety,
which includes the medical gas manifolds provided by Modular even though they have been pretested at the
factory. Because of the multiple potential sources of contamination or damage to seals listed above, the installer
is to be held responsible for repairing or replacing any seals which have been contaminated or damaged as a result
of the process of connecting to the pipeline. The installer shall also be responsible for protecting the station inlets/
outlets against contamination after the factory protection has been removed.
Modular Services warrants all defects in piping materials, brazed joints, and workmanship but cannot warrant
leaking seals once the factory provided contamination prevention materials are removed from either the end of
the piping or the station inlet/outlet.

In order to install the drywall behind the perimeter flange of the Large-Opening ArtWorks® unit, the four panel
mounting screws (Figure 4) will need to be loosened to allow the panels to be moved away from the wall to
provide clearance for easy placement of the drywall material.
For installation around the medical services compartment, cut drywall to a size that will allow the material to slip
underthelipofthepaneltrim(aseamwillberequiredinthelocationoftheunit).Forinstallationaroundthe

(the trim cover will conceal any small gaps between the console and drywall). Attachment of the drywall can
be accomplished using standard drywall fasteners directly to the framing members and drywall supports of the

ArtWorks® unit (use extreme care with screws that are close to medical gas piping or electrical conduits). Perform
all taping, joining, texturing and painting before resetting the panel trim back to its original position. Any additional
wall coverings may also be installed at this time.
Wainscoting should not be installed under the perimeter flange of the ArtWorks® unit. If the coverings
are to be installed before the tub housing, terminate 0.25" from the outer edge of the perimeter flange.
Once the wall materials are completed, caulk the perimeter of the panel trim with an acoustical sealant and
position it back against the finished wall (Figure 4). This should be the same location that the medical gas brazing
was performed to remove any tension on the brazed connections made.
Should the optional electrical console be used, the backbox will need to be adjusted approximately 1/8" under
flush with the finished wall surface. This is accomplished by adjusting the four screws (two on each side) located
on the ends of the backbox assembly. This will allow the fascia trim to be seated properly around the component
coverplates and rest firmly against the finished wall surface.

The outside dimensions of the framed artwork (supplied by others) are to be 30"H x 34"W. Also, the use of Plexiglas®
glazingisrequiredinordertolimitanyproblemswiththeweightoftheartworkandframe.
Attach the back of the artwork to the aluminum adapter plate, using screws provided. The total allowable weight
for the framed artwork and adapter plate is 12 pounds. A wide range of framing options is accommodated by the
addition or removal of counterweights (1 lb. each) located on the back side of the movable steel panel (Figure 5).
For example, if the combined weight of the framed artwork and aluminum adapter plate is eight pounds, remove
all but four of the counterweights (leaving two on each side). If the weight of the artwork and adapter plate is 12
pounds, remove all the counterweights.
The lifting mechanism is under compression when the artwork is in
the lowered position and assists to counterbalance the weight. If the
compression is too great, the picture will have a tendency to ride up
without assistance; if it is too low, operation of the mechanism will be
more difficult.
The back side of the adapter plate has four shoulder rivets, one at each
corner. To attach the artwork assembly to the moveable steel panel,
tilt the top of the artwork back slightly and engage the upper shoulder
rivets on the adapter plate into the upper keyhole attachment slots
on the steel panel (Figure 5). Slide the artwork assembly down into
the keyhole slots, engaging the lower shoulder rivets into the lower
keyhole slots as the artwork is lowered into position. Check to see that
the artwork is level and secure it in place by installing two locking
brackets (provided) at the top corners of the moveable panel.
