    6 Fitting the probe It is essential to remove the cardboard protective tube for transport before installation! Caution If several probes are screwed into one flange, the probe plug and the associated probe should be labelled to prevent confusion! Screwing in the probe •...
  • Page 12: El22

    6.1 EL22 This probe is fitted horizontally into the boiler as standard using a T-piece. This enables the concentrated water, which is measured, to be directly discharged. In order to determine the length, note that there should be a free space of 40mm around the measuring tip.
  • Page 13: El23

    6.2 EL23 This probe is fitted as standard using a protective tube.
  • Page 14: El18

    6.3 EL18 This probe is fitted as standard using a flange in a pipe. With intermittent flow, a measurement can then be carried out and TDS reduction can be started.

    7. Adjustment Do not carry out adjustment until all the system components are installed. Switch on the mains voltage, the green warning light "U " lights up. Measuring instruments required for calibration: • Multimeter (preferably digital multimeter) Conductivity measuring device (preferably with temperature compensation) •...
  • Page 16: Temperature Calibration

    Press the "TEST K" key. If the circuit is interrupted at the terminals of the connection block (3 and 4), a fault in the FLB1 can be excluded. • Check the correct fitting of the conductivity electrode according to the operating instructions and the electrical connection according to the wiring diagram.
  • Page 17: Limit Setting (Maximum Value)

    Standards 12953-10 and 12952-12 contain requirements for the boiler water and the feedwater according to the permissible operating pressure. 8.1 Setting the FLB1 Set the desired limit value for maximum conductivity with the limit switch “K” taking into account the applicable directives.
