Measures for protecting
the drinking water
We recommend the use of a safety combination consisting of a back-flow
preventer and a pipe aerator (e.g. the assembly set in accordance with
EN 1717 for MELAdem) in accordance with EN 1717 to protect against
backflow into the drinking water supply.
Leakage water detector
We recommend the installation of a leakage water detector with a cut-off valve
(e.g. MELAG water stop).
PLEASE NOTE
The outlet hose must be fitted at a constant decline without kinks or sagging. Deviations
to the installation arrangements require consultation with MELAG.
Failure to do so can result in malfunctions of the steam sterilizer.
