WATER HEATER STARTUP
Most AutoVap15 Systems from TruSteel are paired with a Hubbel Water Heater. For common
operating procedure, the Hubbel Water Heater is used throughout this startup procedure.
TruSteel also provides the manifold for the water heater which includes the water circulating
pump (normally a TACO brand pump).
START WATER HEATER
Procedure
1. TURN ON RECIRCULATING PUMP
Locate the power switch for the recirculating pump and power
“on”.
2. TURN ON THE WATER HEATER
If the power to the water heater is disconnected, power on the breaker disconnect to the
water heater.
3. SET HEATER TEMPERATURE
For first time setup, you will need to set the temperature of the water heater. For daily use,
the temperature should be set at the ideal temperature already.
Simply press the up or down arrows on the water heater to set the temperature.
4. CHECK WATER HEATER DIAGNOSTICS (Electric Heater Models Only)
This is an important step to check each day of operation to be sure the flow is high
enough.
Press and Hold both the UP and DOWN arrows simultaneously for 1-2 seconds and
release.
You should not be in diagnostic mode.
Numbers will begin
“flashing” on the water heater screen.
1st number is the heater temperature setpoint
2nd number is the temperature
“OUT” of the heater to the AutoVap
3rd number is the temperature
“IN”, back from the AutoVap
4th number is the
“Flow Rate” in gallons/minute
The Flow Rate is very important
You must have a flow rate above 10 gallons/minute.
If the flow rate is below that, the AutoVap may not operate efficiently.
The flow rate should be between 5-10 GPM for optimal operation.
If the flow rate is below 5 gallon per minute you must refill the heater with water. Do this when the
before the heater is turned on. You must refill the heating system while the system cold.
VACUUM PUMP STARTUP
Most AutoVap15 Systems from TruSteel are paired with a Welch vacuum pump. For common
operating procedure, the Welch vacuum pump is used throughout this startup procedure.
START VACUUM PUMP
