ACE95 Series
5
Sensing Line
The sensing line should be 1/2-inch (13 mm) tubing
or pipe, must slope down toward the tank, and should
not contain low points (or traps) that could catch liquid.
The sensing line must enter the tank above the liquid
level at a point that senses the vapor space pressure
and is free from turbulence associated with tank
nozzles or vents.

Gauges and Shutoff Valves
Inlet gas shutoff valves are desirable for servicing.
If this ACE95 Series tank blanketing valve was not
ordered with an inlet pressure gauge, it is advisable to
install a gauge between the inlet shutoff valve and the
blanketing valve.
1. Open shutoff valves between the blanketing valve
and the tank (both sensing and outlet). See Figure 4.
2. Slowly open the supply line shutoff valve (to the
blanketing valve) and leave it fully open.
3. Monitor the tank vapor space pressure.
Figure 5. Spring Case, Adjusting Screw, and Actuator Cap
The setpoint of this unit is factory set. If an adjustment
is to be made, it should be done so in small increments
while the unit is supplying gas to the tank. To change
the setpoint:
1. Unscrew and remove the actuator cap (key 1) from
the top of the spring case (key 7). See Figure 5.
2. Loosen the lock nut (key 3) and turn the adjusting
screw (key 2) clockwise to raise the setpoint.
(Turning the screw counter-clockwise lowers
the setpoint.)
3. Observe the effects of the change.
4. When the adjustment is complete, tighten the lock
nut (key 3) and replace the actuator cap (key 1).
Installation arrangements vary, but in any installation
it is important to open and close valves slowly and to
close the upstream shutoff valve rst when shutting
down the system.
