When commissioning the device, proceed as follows:
CAUTION!
When setting up the steam generator, the following
must be ensured:
–
The blow-down valve on the rear side of the
device cannot be opened unintentionally.
–
There is no risk of tripping over the connection
cable, blow-down hose and blow-down tank.
–
The steam vales cannot be touched acciden-
tally.
1.
Measuring the water hardness
The lime in the water may lead to deposits in the boiler and
heating elements and thus to system failures. To prevent
this from happening, we therefore recommend using the lime
binding agent Lapidon if the water hardness exceeds 10°dH
(German water hardness). The lime binding agent binds the
lime in the water. The lime is then removed from the boiler
during blow-down.
For a water hardness between 10 dH and 15 dH, one meas-
uring cap of the lime binding agent Lapidon is added to
the feedwater tank if it is completely filled. When exceeding
15 dH, two measuring caps need to be added.
CAUTION!
