9.3 Cleaning and maintenance of the cylinder
Replacement
Important: he cylinder must be only be replaced by quali fi ed
personnel , and with the humidi fi er unplugged from the power
supply .
In normal conditions , the disposab l e cy l inders shou l d be rep l aced after
one year (or 2500 hours of operation , if cleaned periodically) , while the
openab l e cy l inders l ast 5 years (or 10 , 000 hours of operation , if cleaned
periodically) . T hey must be replaced immediately – even before the
speci fi ed intervals – if any anomalies occur . For example , when the lime
scale inside the cylinder prevents the correct fl ow of electric current .
T he cylinder must undergo periodical preventive maintenance by
Fortnightly visual and be replaced either when depleted (i . e ., full of lime -
scale) or when its lifetime has expired as indicated in the manual or when
any anomalies occur . A non - exhaustive list of reasons for replacement is:
•
T here is too much lime - scale inside the cylinder with electrodes fully
covered and (almost) touching each other: this can be seen by looking
into the cylinder through the steam outlet or by opening it if it is an
openable cylinder . Comment: it is normal that cylinders fi ll with lime -
scale because this is naturally contained in the supply water . Filling
with lime - scale is not an anomaly , however , when full of lime - scale , the
cylinder must be replaced
•
T he lifetime has expired as indicated in the manual (2 , 500 hrs for
disposable cylinders , 10 , 000 hrs for openable cylinders)
•
A nomaly . Dark color appearing through the plastic (black , dark
grey/brown) because this would likely indicate that corrosion of
the electrodes is going on; in such a case , additionally , check that
the supply water be within the ranges given in the manual , always
remembering that softened water must be avoided
•
A nomaly . Frequent drains along with E A / A F warnings: they indicate
the likely presence of foam or mineral deposits in the inner high - level
probe that generates false high - level/foam drains . T ry to clean the
cylinder by activating the pre -fl ushing sequence . If the frequent drains
persist , then double - check that the supply water’s quality be within
the range speci fi ed in the manual and replace the cylinder . Comment:
foam may happen , but if it happens too frequently , then it becomes
an anomaly
•
A nomaly . Cracks on the plastic
•
A nomaly . Water leakage from the connection between the lower and
upper (lid) parts of the cylinder . If the cylinder is a disposable , replace
it asap; if it is an openable cylinder , try to properly relocate the gasket
into its seat , eventually replace the cylinder if the leakage persists
•
A nomaly . Evident signs of steam leakage on to the cylinder’s lid around
the electrodes power connections
•
A nomaly . A ny other evident or suspicious phenomenon that can be
linked to problems related to the cylinder
C A REL is available for further support in case of doubts or in case more
information is required
Replacement procedure::
1 .
empty all the water (see chap . 6);
2 .
turn o ff the humidi fi er (switch “0”) , and open the mains disconnect
switch on the power supply (safety procedure);
3 . wait for the humidi fi er and the cylinder to cool down;
4 .
remove the front cover;
5 . disconnect the electrical cables from the cylinder;
6 . release the cylinder from the locking device and lift it to remove it;
7 .
insert the new cylinder (make sure that the model and the power
supply of the new cylinder correspond to the rated data);
8 . fasten the cylinder;
9 .
reconnect the electrical cables to the cylinder;
10 .
replace the front cover;
11 . switch on the humidi fi er;
12 . reset cylinder operating hour counter (see parameters da chap . 7);
13 .
A ctivate the wash new cylinder procedure , pressing EN T ER + DOWN
for 5 seconds
Periodical checks
•
After one hour of operation: check for any signi fi cant water leaks .
•
Every 1 5 days or no more than 300 operating hours: check operation ,
the absence of signi fi cant water leaks , the general conditions of
the casing . Check that during operation there are no arcs or sparks
between the electrodes .
•
Every 3 months or no more than 1000 operating hours:
-
disposable cylinders: check operation , the absence of signi fi cant
water leaks and if necessary replace the cylinder;
-
openable cylinders: if there are signi fi cantly blackened areas , check
the deposits on the electrodes and clean them , using the speci fi c
electrode and gasket kit .
•
Every year or no more than 2500 operating hours:
-
disposable cylinders: replace;
-
openable cylinders: if there are signi fi cantly blackened areas , check
the deposits on the electrodes and clean them , using the speci fi c
electrode and gasket kit .
•
After 5 years or no more than 10 , 000 operating hours: replace the
openable cylinder .
A fter extended operation , or when using water rich in salts , the solid
deposits that naturally form on the electrodes may grow until attaching
to the inside wall of the cylinder . If these deposits are conductive the heat
generated may overheat the plastic until it melts , with the risk of very hot
water being released .
Important : In the event of water leaks , disconnect the power
supply from the humidi fi er as the water may conduct electricity .
9.4 Mechanically draining the water in the
cylinder
Drain due to gravity without activating the humidi fi er , recommended if:
•
humidi fi er decommissioned;
•
to empty the cylinder without switching the humidi fi er on .
Mechanical drain:
• make sure that the humidi fi er is not powered;
• remove the cover;
• activate the mechanical device under the cylinder (see part A, Fig . 9 . e) .
