Proceed as follows:
1. Screw the floating valve into the left or right connection opening.
2. Insert a sealing plug into the connection opening not being used.
The drinking bowl is also suitable for circulation systems.
3. Seal the floating valve connection thread with a small quantity of sealing tape
(recommendation: Loctite 55 pipe sealing cord).
4. Bleed the water line thoroughly. Install any automatic bleed valve as required.
5. Flush the water line, pipe valve and drinking bowl thoroughly. Newly-laid pipelines can contain loose production
artefacts (metal filings, sand or deposits).
Routing and connecting the heating cable
CAUTION!
Danger of fire, short-circuits or electric shock!!
• The electrical installation of the device must only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
• Always earth the water piping separately!
• Check the operating voltage and device type specified on the type plate. Only operate the device at the mains
voltage specified!
• Only operate device types 222063 and 222065 via a low-voltage transformer with a fuse and at max. 24 Volt.
• A residual current circuit breaker (30 mA) is required to protect people, animals and installations. Protect feed
cables to the device or transformer separately. Comply with local regulations!
• With device types 222063 and 222065, mount the transformer out of the reach of animals.
• With device types 222064 and 222065, route the auxiliary pipe heating so that it does not overlap.
• Route all electrical supply cables so that they are protected against biting or gnawing. Only use gnaw/bite-proof
materials.
• Do not allow electrical supply cables to come into contact with oil or sharp edges.
• Check the function of the entire electrical installation before the first frost.
• Do not cover or insulate the temperature switch.
Drinking bowls without auxiliary pipe heating (222062 and 222063)
Attention! The floating valve will only remain frost-free via heated water piping or a circulation system. The auxiliary pipe
heating must be laid separately for types 222062 and 222063.
Proceed as follows:
1. Check the heating cable for damage.
2. Route the heating cable along the pipe towards the power supply. As you do so, note the following instructions:
Route the cables so that it is out of reach of animals. Cable ends (at plugs or junction boxes) must be easily acces-
sible for repair and maintenance work
