2.1 GENERAL
A. Care should be taken to use materials (hose, rigid piping, valves or filters) rated for
the temperature and pressure duty of your unit. Most units have a maximum operating
temperature of 300°F or less and a maximum pressure of 150 PSI. The unit is most
efficient when full size plumbing is run from the unit connections to and from the process.
If necessary, reduce the plumbing size at your process, not at the unit.
B. Be certain all process piping materials have the equivalent or larger diameter of the
particular process connection.
2.2 TO AND FROM PROCESS CONNECTIONS
A. Connect the unit’s To Process port to the Water In port on the process manifold.
B. Connect the unit’s From Process port to the Water Out port on the process manifold.
C. Please note: Process water piping circuitry should be designed to avoid an excessive
use of elbows and/or lengths of pipe or hose. If hose is the material of choice, avoid tight
twists or curls and excessive lengths.
D. Valves and filters may be installed in the process water piping circuitry to facilitate service
and maintenance, provided that such devices maintain the full inside diameter of the
process connection. If installed, all such devices must be open and clean during unit
operation.
