Sediment Trap Assembly
Assemble the tee, nipples and cap together and
tighten securely. See Fig. 4. The sediment trap
assembly must always be mounted in a vertical
position. Make sure pipe thread compound that is
resistant to both L.P. gas and natural gas is used in
making all connections. Check all connections for
gas leaks using approved gas leak detectors.

(Must be ordered separately)
1. Always use approved pipe thread compound
suitable for use with L.P. gas or natural gas on the
threaded connections.
2. Assemble the components together according to
Fig. 5. This view is to show general assembly of
the components only. The regulator must always
be mounted so its vent, regardless of location on
the regulator, is always pointed downward.
Note: Regulators located in doors should be vented
back to outdoors. Refer to NFPA54, National
Fuel Gas Code Handbook, CAN-B1491, CAN-
B149,2, & local codes as appropriate.
3. Tighten all connections securely.
4. Check all connections for gas leaks
using approved gas leak detectors.
