Shutdown, Steam Generator and
Float Cylinder Rinse Functions
Refer to Figure 5-14. Typically, when the Steam Craft 10 is shut down at the end of a
shift, only the ON/OFF switch is set to OFF. The main power switch remains ON-
During such a shutdown, the steam generator and float rinse cycle runs automatically.
Switching the ON/OFF switch to OFF removes power from most of the steamer
circuit components, and activates the 3-minute timer. The following circuit operations
occur.
1. (Model 24-CEA-10 only) The transformer and high voltage circuits on the line
side of the heater contactor remain energized.
2. The red indicator light on the ON/OFF switch turns OFF.
3. The condenser solenoid deenergizes, closing the condenser valve.
4. The drain solenoid deenergizes, opening the drain valve.
5. The 3-minute timer circuit is energized and the timer starts to count down While
the timer counts down, the rinse cycle occurs. This cycle is the same for both gas -
fired 24-CGA-10 and electric heater 24-CEA-10 models. In the electric models,
both the upper and lower generator/float
sets are rinsed.
a. The fill solenoid is energized, opening the fill valve. This injects a high
velocity water stream from the valve into the drain valve, causing rapid draining
of the steam generator. Rapid draining causes turbulence
