Pressure Relief Plug
Warning:
When using the RIMS Rocket™ electric recirculation heater, always have the outlet of the
HopRocket™ canister unrestricted. NEVER install valves, fittings or any other devices downstream from
the outlet of the HopRocket™ canister which can impede or block the flow of liquid or evacuation of
pressure from the HopRocket™ canister.
Your RIMS Rocket™ electric recirculation heater comes from the factory with a pressure relief device
installed to prevent unsafe over pressurization of the canister. When installing the RIMS Rocket™
electric recirculation heater, always make sure the pressure relief device is installed as shown in the
sectioned diagram in Figure Op-2. Also, make certain that the bottom of the HopRocket™ canister is
oriented in a safe direction in the event of over pressurization. Do not stand or allow children or pets
in the area directly below the RIMS Rocket™ electric recirculation heater and HopRocket™ canister.
ALWAYS
orient the pressure relief
device as shown in Figure Op-2. Make
sure the flange of the silicone pressure
relief plug is located on the same side
of the lid as the plug protector.
Warning:
NEVER replace the pressure
relief device with anything other than
genuine Blichmann Engineering™
replacement parts. The use of non-OEM
parts can result in dangerous
conditions that can result in personal
property damage, injury or death.

Warning:
NEVER energize the heater without the heating coils fully submerged. “Dry firing” the RIMS
Rocket™ electric recirculation heater will cause the heater coil to reach excessive temperatures which
can create a dangerous situation which can result in personal property damage, injury or death.
