SERVICE CONNECTIONS
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION: Junction box for electrical con-
nection for boiler heat and controls.
DRAIN: Condenser box, compartment and boiler, 11/4" NPT.
Provide an open air gap type drain within 12" of condenser box
and for best results at a distance so that steam vapors will not
enter the steamer from underneath the control area. Do not
connect solidly to any drain connection.
COLD WATER CONNECTION: 1/2" NPT for boiler feed. Inlet
water pressure between 20 and 80 psi.
COLD WATER CONNECTION: 1/8" NPT for condensate box.
Inlet water pressure between 20 and 80 psi.
WATER: For swing faucet, (single) (dual) temperature 1/4" IPS
tailpiece.
STEAM TAKE-OFF CONNECTION: 3/4" NPT.
NOTE:
•Dimensions which locate the above connections have a tolerance of
+ or -3" (+ or -75 mm).
•Installation of backflow preventers, vacuum breakers and other
specific code requirements is the responsibility of the owner and
installer. It is the responsibility of the owner and installer to comply
with local codes.
•Plastic drains are not recommended due to inherent limited tem-
peratures of the plastic. Boiler purge temperatures may exceed
180°F. The installer may be required to provide means to reduce
boiler purge water temperature to be that of the condensate tem-
perature of 140°F or less.
•This appliance is manufactured for commercial installation only and
is not intended for home use.
WATER QUALITY STATEMENT:
The fact that a water supply is potable is no guarantee that it is suitable
for steam generation. Your water supply must be within these general
guidelines:
SUPPLY PRESSURE 20 - 60 psig
HARDNESS* less than 3 grains
SILICA less than 13 ppm
TOTAL CHLORIDE less than 4.0 ppm
pH RANGE 7-8
UN-DISSOLVED SOLIDS less than 5 microns
*17.1 ppm = 1 grain of hardness
Other factors affecting steam generation are iron content, amount of
chloridation and dissolved gases. Water supplies vary from state to state
and from locations within a state. Therefore it is necessary that the local
water treatment specialist be consulted before the installation of any
steam generating equipment.
