Automatic filling with pump (basic P-HP)
Risk of brackish water backflow into the water supply!
A system separator must be installed between the water
connection on the building side and the Elmasteam to protect
drinking water against non-potable water.
The operating company is responsible for the implementation of
the measure.
The pump fills the pressure tank with the optimum filling amount of
water automatically. No waiting time are produced due to
necessary cooling down phases as for manual filling.
Risk of water damage from possible detachment of the water
hose!
Close the water supply of the pump at the water tap after
operation or if the machine is unsupervised.
Risk of water damage from overfilling of the pressure tank!
Observe requirement for the water quality (see
chapter 5.1
).
1. Before the first filling, fill the pressure tank manually with
approx. 2 litres of water (
see chapter 5.2
).
It is expedient for the first filling of the Elmasteam using the
pump to unscrew the pressure tank screw cap to let the air
escape from the system.
2. Open the water tap for the water supply.
Check the hose connections for leaks and tightness.
3. Switch on the machine.
After approx. 10 seconds, the machine starts filling and heating
the pressure tank.
4. Screw the pressure tank screw cap closed again after the
automatic filling.
Further refilling is performed automatically during operation.
Note in the case of incorrectly dimensioned softening cartridges in
the water supply line: When the solenoid valve for the water inlet
closes, a natural rebound on the line occurs as is also produced
when closing a water tap. This can result in damage in the case of
too weakly dimensioned softening cartridges.
