Your Aquatron A8000 has been designed with ease of assembly
specifically in mind. Please study the installation diagram and the
enclosed DVD before commencing the installation. Follow the
sequence of instructions and do not connect the mains electricity
supply until directed.
1. From the outer packaging remove all the components
including the metal cabinet containing the glass boiler.
2. Before unpacking the individual components, identify them on
the check list below:
A8000 Unit containing boiler.
Condenser – WC48/M2 x2
Heater – W48H x2
Boiler Level Control – WL48
Funnel – WF48
Reservoir Water Level Sensor – WLS
Hose Kit – I/WH48/2/B
Wall Mounting Bracket – M510G
3. Remove the perspex viewing screen (Fig. 3, item 1) from the
unit by lifting it up using the finger recess. Remove the
internal packaging carefully. Snip the temporary ties holding
the boiler retaining springs (Item 25).
4. Remove the cabinet end plate and lid by removing the
retaining screws.
5. Ensure that the sealing O rings and the stabilising O rings are
correctly positioned on the vapour tubes of the boiler.
6. Fit one of the condensers (Fig. 3, item 4) to the left hand
vapour tube ensuring that the distillate outlet faces the front
and the two water connections are parallel to the unit. When
slight resistance is felt when fitting the condenser, press down
slightly on the top of the condenser until a gap of
approximately 19mm exists between the condenser and the
boiler (Fig. 3a).
7. Looking inside the cabinet, identify the vinyl tubing assemblies
fitted with numbered screw thread connectors. Make the
following connections:
A8000 Assembly
Connect number 2 to the lower water inlet of the condenser.
Connect number 4 to the upper water outlet of the condenser
(Fig. 3b).
8. Fit the second condenser (Fig. 3, item 4) to the right hand
vapour tube ensuring that the distillate outlet faces the front
and the two water connections are parallel to the unit. When
slight resistance is felt when fitting the condenser, press down
slightly on the top of the condenser until a gap of
approximately 19mm exists between the condenser and the
boiler.
9. Looking inside the cabinet, identify the vinyl tubing assemblies
fitted with numbered screw thread connectors. Make the
following connections:
Connect number 1 to the lower water inlet of the condenser.
Connect number 3 to the upper water outlet of the condenser
(Fig. 3b).
10. From the hose kit I/WH48/2/B take the 1m length of 8mm
tubing fitted with the T piece.
11. Connect the 180mm length of tubing from the T piece to the
distillate outlet of the condenser on the left hand side. Secure
with a tie wrap.
12. Connect the 100mm length of tubing from the T piece to the
distillate outlet of the condenser on the right hand side.
Secure with a tie wrap.
13. Pass the free end of the tubing through:
The cabinet base (Fig. 3, item 22) if wall mounted.
The cabinet side (Fig. 3, item 16) if bench mounted.
14. Take the boiler level control WL48 (Fig. 3, item 23). Remove
the end split nut and central part of the boiler plastic coupling
(Item 24) leaving the other split nut on, and the internal seal
in the boiler level control. Ensure the Rotaflo stopcock is fully
closed (screwed down).
15. Take the 16mm earth spigot and place the 16mm tubing part
of it into a beaker of hot water for approximately 20 – 30
seconds; this will make the tubing more supple. Connect the
16mm tubing to the boiler level control (Item 23) drain
connection (below the Rotaflo stopcock). Secure with a tie
wrap.
16. Take the 1m length of 16mm hose from hose kit I/WH48/2/B.
Place one end into a beaker of hot water for approximately 20
– 30 seconds. Thread the tube through hole (Fig. 3, item 18)
until approximately 300mm of tubing is inside the cabinet.
Connect to the 16mm earth spigot and secure with a tie
wrap.
