3. INSTALLATION
The Inlet and outlet threads of OAS400 are ¾” Gas (BSPP) Female.
CAUTION: The OAS400 must be connected between the dispenser and the nozzle between two sections of hoses so it is free to
align itself in a straight manner.
1. Inspect the unit and make sure that both valves are fully connected. All units are being setup and locked with set screw to
break at requested force.
2. Make sure that the threads on both the hose fitting as well as the inlet and outlet ports are clean and free of any debris, oil,
grease or Teflon tape.
3. Only use the wrench flats when tightening the hose (connect OPW breakaway only to certified hoses according to EN1762)
to the breakaways. Do not grasp the housing!
