7. Cleaning system
7.1 General information
Steamtec II Basic steam generator is equipped with an automatic descaling and draining sys-
tem. Included with the delivery is a 5 l container for cleaning liquid (cleaning liquid not includ-
ed, optional accessory) with the level probe.
Place the container under the steam generator (see page 11 for details). Connect the 2-core
white cable to the corresponding contacts of the level probe in the container. Insert the suc-
tion PTFE tube from the peristaltic pump into the container, so that the tube end reaches the
bottom.
Fill the container with the cleaning liquid. The liquid level will be monitored thanks to the level
probe integrated in the container. By low level an error code will be given by the pilot lamp.
Make sure that the bottom of the level probe does not touch the bottom of the container and
has approx. 1 cm gap.
Important Notice:
The cleaning liquid is an acid solution. Corrosive! Irritating on skin and eyes! Make
sure to wear appropriate protection and observe due precautions by refilling the
container. Avoid contact with clothing. For further details please refer to the safety
advise on the original packing or to the safety data sheet. Spilled cleaner should be
removed immediately.
Danger of poisoning
Handle the container with the cleaner liquid with care. Do not place it close to other
chemicals - risk of toxic fumes.
Danger of damage to the steam generator
Place the container for cleaner not higher than the bottom of the steam generator.
Use only the suitable cleaner designed for descaling of water boiling equipment,
dilute if necessary as specified by the manufacturer. EOS recommends the “Steintod
P” cleaner. The warranty will be void by the use of an unsuitable and unapproved
cleaner liquid.
The integrated descaling system may be unable to remove all limescale deposits especially by
intensive operation and hard water condition. For this reason by hard water an external water
softening system must be pre-installed.
By commercial operation an external water softening system must be pre-installed in either
case.
