  • Temporary hanger system for valve banks
    Patent number: 10408379
    Abstract: A hanger system for temporarily hanging a valve bank on a vertical mounting face of a substrate. The hanger system includes one or more hanger brackets for attaching to the vertical mounting face. The valve bank has one or more mounting studs protruding from an underside surface of the valve bank, in which the mounting studs are configured to couple with the hanger brackets for temporarily hanging the valve bank on the mounting face with the underside surface facing toward the mounting face. The mounting studs and hanger brackets are configured to cooperate with each other to allow the valve bank to be secured in multiple different orientations against the mounting face, thereby facilitating fixedly mounting the valve bank to the mounting face with one or more fasteners that are received through corresponding fastening receivers in the valve bank.
