Before Using this unit Requirements for Installation CAUTION! 14. When the sink equipment is remote from water tap, use "Water Supply Port Unit" (optional accessory) "Water Supply Port Unit" is designed to loosen the connection to the tap harder than the set of standard water supply hoses when water pressure fluctuates.
Page 11
Drain trap makes temperature fall by accumulating cooled drain water temporarily. Further, it mixes city water and cooled-down drain water, makes mixed water temperature fall, then lets drain to sink equipment. Contact your dealer or Yamato Scientific sales office for detail of drain trap.

Description and Function of Each Part Principle of Operation 1. Boiler Water Supply and Distilling Operation Turn ON the earth leakage breaker, and press the power switch. Then, the raw water supply solenoid valve (4) and the boiler water supply solenoid valve (15) open at the same time to supply water to the boiler (11). When the float switch 1 (8) in the float cylinder (7) detects water level, the heater (12) is energized to start distillation.
Page 18
Description and Function of Each Part Principle of Operation 3. Sampling of Distilled Water The distilled water condensed in the condenser (13) is stored in the distilled water tank (21) after discharging the initial boiled water via the initial boiled water discharge solenoid valve (16) for about 10 min. after power switch is turned ON.
