INSTALLATION
Installationofthe RuptureSeal™shouldbeperformedonlybyqualifiedpersonnel.Thefollowing
installationinstructionsshouldbethoroughlyreadandunderstoodbeforeattempting installation.
Alterationstotheexistingrupturediskventpiping andremovalofexistingcarbonrupturediskare
necessarytoinstall theNRSSeries RuptureSeal™valve.The installershoulddetermine inadvance
whattoolsandmaterialswill beneeded.
Caution: Federal RefrigerantRecyclingRegulations requirethatthechiller,during
servicing,beeithercompletelyevacuatedorpressurizedtoatmospheric pressure(O
psig)priorto openingtherefrigerantcircuitto theatmosphere. Failuretocomply, or
usingmeansotherthanheatto elevaterefrigerantpressure, violates Section608ofthe
CleanAiract.
Warning: Discharge VentLine piping must complywithall applicable codes and
standards. RefertoASHRAEStandard15-1992 andequipmentmanufacturer’s
installationmanual forrupture disk andreliefvalve ventline pipinginstructions.
Warning: DO NOTinstall anNRS-3 RuptureSeal™ ona 2” outletrelief. Likewise, DO
NOTinstall anNRS-2 RuptureSeal™ ona 3” outletrelief. The ratedflow capacitiesof
the RuptureSeal™ reliefvalve applyonlywhen the appropriate Model isusedonan

Leak Testing Procedure
Caution:DO NOTuse this procedure ifchillerpressure is lowerthan15” Hg.
Otherwise, the rupture disk mayimplode into the chiller!
1. Removepipeplug(oroptionalRuptureAlarm™ifused)fromalarm port (35) ofConnector (14).
2. Utilizinga1/8”NPTx1/4”Flair halfunion,connectarefrigerationmanifoldset (lowsidehose)tothe
alarm port (35) ofCross Connector (14).
3. Carefullyraisethepressurelevelto NO MORE THAN 5PSIMAXIMUM, and testforleaks using
standardleaktesting procedures.
Warning: Duringtesting,to maintainpressureatsuchalowpsi, youmay haveto
removethefilter/vent (34) andholdyour fingerovertheoutletof theDouble Check
PressureEqualizingValve. DO NOT install apluginoutletof theDoubleCheck
PressureEqualizingValve. Failureto removeplugafterleak testcouldcreateaserious
safetyhazard.
4. At conclusionofLeaktestprocedure,releasepressureandremovehoseand fitting.Reconnect
alarm tubeorre-install pipepluginalarm port (35) andsecuretightly.
Annual Maintenance
Warning: DO NOTTAMPERWITHWIREAND LEADSEALDURING SERVICING!
Removal of wireandleadseal will compromise pressurereliefcalibrationandvoidthe
warranty.Ifservice to thevalveassemblyeffectingcalibrationisrequired,itmustbe
returnedto manufacturerforservice. ANNUALSERVICING DOES NOTAFFECT

whenvalvebodylockingscrewsareremoved.
2. Afterpinning thespring tensionbar,breakventpipeunion (12) (see Figure2onpage8).
3. Next,removethefive(5)valvebodylockingscrews(9),andlift valvebody (7) fromthevalve
nozzle (32).
4. Inspect valveseat O-Ring (1) andvalvebodyO-Ring (2).If thereareanyvisiblesignsofwearor
