1.6 Specific Safety and Work Instructions
The elector reaction device is only suitable for the treatment of water for technical applications. The treated
circulating water is not suitable for human consumption.
To avoid technical problems, the elector system must be rinsed once a year with clear water, ideally with
demineralized water. In addition, for reasons of ideal function, the high-potential magnesium anode installed in
the elector should be replaced every two years as a consumable.
If the elector reaction vessel is operated with strongly calcareous water, a partial lime precipitation with the
formation of lime sludge takes place due to the increase in the pH value. In this case, the reaction vessel should
be cleaned twice a year. In case of sticky limescale impurities on the inner walls of the device you should use a
natural acid to remove these.
The system is not resistant to highly concentrated detergents.
During operation, the system must not be opened or dismantled. The reaction container must not be opened
without prior depressurization.
The reaction tank may contain hot water. Take appropriate precautions during maintenance and protect yourself
against burns caused by high water temperatures.
Protect the system from mechanical damage. Do not use near sources of heat and naked flames.
The installation of all parts must be carried out according to the country-specific guidelines.
1.7 Specific Operating Instructions
The addition of chemical agents to the heating water can prevent the function of the elector system. Therefore,
when using an elector, do not add any additional chemicals to the system.
Please note the information on filling water quality on the following pages of the user manual.
Do not use softened water as filling water in combination with an elector. This can lead to a malfunction or to
a heavily increased pH. In the case of a high total hardness or an electrical conductivity of the drinking water>
200 μS / cm, the filling water should always be treated by means of full deionization with ion exchangers.
Check if there is any aluminum alloy in the system and if this is a limitation on the maximum pH level. When
using an elector system, the pH may increase>9.
1.8 Declaration of Conformity
The elector water treatment devices are pressurized tanks under the scope of the Pressure Equipment Directive
97/23 / EC Article 3 (3). A CE marking is not allowed. The elector systems are designed and manufactured
according to good engineering practice. A tightness and pressure test is performed.
