Page 62: Appendix
APPENDIX: -23 Configuration This section applies only to units that include the “-23” optional configuration. This configuration adds the ability to operate the heating column(s) at a preset output during periods of no hot water demand, when there is a low “trickle flow” of DI water passing through the unit. Low Flow Bypass Calibration Startup Procedure: This calibration procedure should be performed before the first time the unit is operated during a Low Flow Bypass, and whenever the flow rate during this bypass or the process set point changes.
