3.0 INSTALLATION (Continued)
WATER CONDITIONING:
Untreated water contains scale producing minerals which can precipitate onto the surfaces in
the steam generator. Due to the temperatures in the steam generator, the minerals can bake
onto the surfaces and components. This can result in early component failure and reduced
product life. Water level probes become coated with scale. Scale may bridge across the probe
insulator from the metal extension which senses the water level in the steam generator shell.
Once this scale becomes wet, the water level control is unable to maintain the proper water
level in the steam generator.
STRAINERS and FILTERS will NOT treat equipment for scale reduction.
This equipment is furnished with a CUNO® Commercial Series water filtration system. An initial
flushing procedure for the filter system must be performed before using this equipment.
FILTER SYSTEM INSTALLATION SET-UP
1. Remoe sanitary cap from cartridge. Install cartridge with a quarter turn to the right until
cartridge comes to a complete stop. (A "click" is heard). See "Figure 1".
2. a) Lubricate O-ring of scale cartridge with water. Do not use petroleum jelly.
b) Install by turning cartridge toward the right until it comes to a complete stop. DO NOT
over tighten. (Never use tools to tighten a cartridge.) See "Figure 2".
3. It is recommended tht cartridges be replaced regularly, at no more than six-month intervals
to be assured of optimum performance.
