6.6 Leakage current
The leakage current must not exceed the following values in accordance with DIN EN 60335-
1:2012-10:
For stationary class I heating appliances: 0.75 mA or 0.75 mA per kW rated power input of the heating
unit, whichever is higher, up to a maximum of 5mA.
The electricity supply must be protected by a residual-current-operated protective device (RCD)
with a rated fault current of <30 mA. Please ensure that no other electrical appliances are protec-
ted by this RCD device.
The applicable international (VDE), national and local (EVU) legal norms and requirements in their
currently valid versions should be observed. All installation and verification work in Germany
should be carried out by a licensed and appropriately qualified electrician in compliance with VDE
0100 part 701.
6.7 Special advice for water quality
Equipment damage due to unsuitable or contaminated water.
Water supplied to the steam generator may be contaminated with so-called plasticisers or
similar substances which are able to modify the surface tension of water in the water tank.
This may cause strong foam building during water boiling. Boiling water may be spilled into
the steam pipe or it may cause the generator to measure the water level incorrectly and lead
to overheating and tripping of the safety temperature limiter.
Please make sure that the water pipe to the steam generator is made of materials that do not
release plasticizers (plasticizers are located e.g. in PVC pipes).
Plasticizers may also be present in substances such as essential oils, essences and fragrances,
certain cleaning agents and chemicals, which must not get into the vaporiser tank.
