CENTRA LDS/RDS US HFR VERSION
The pressure within the distribution loop is automatically
controlled by the unit and is set at a factory default of 3 bar
(typically) at the end of the distribution loop.
To adjust the pressure in the distribution loop requires specialist
equipment and it is recommended that changes are made by an
ELGA LabWater Service Engineer.
The sustaining valve ensures that during periods of high
demand all water is diverted to the point of use. During
recirculation the valve should be adjusted to maintain a flow of
between 5-10l/min.
1.
LOCATE the pressure regulating valve at the bottom
left of the valve assembly.
2.
ADJUST the pressure in the distribution loop by
pulling the cap up and turning the knob
(CLOCKWISE to INCREASE pressure, ANTI-
CLOCKWISE to DECREASE pressure).
3.
PUSH the cap back down to lock the cap in place
and prevent the setting from changing.
CAUTION!
Adjustment of the sustaining valve in the
HFV/HFR does not increase the pressure
available in the loop and incorrect adjustment
may result in reduced performance.
Step 6 - Sanitization
1.
SANITIZE the system as described in Section 10 -
Sanitization Procedures.
Note: It is good practice to sanitize new installations
during commissioning.
Step 7 - Fit 0.2µm filter
1.
Fit new or existing filter at the end of sanitization as
described in Section 9.2 - Replacing bacterial and
particulate filter.
