Setup Loop Only qualified technicians should change the TUNING and ADDRESS values. Should you inadvertently find yourself in either area of the loop, press the NEXT key until the SAVE? prompt is displayed. Press NO to abort all changes. NOTE: This procedure will also restore the flow alarms to their previous values.

Section IV Operation Pre Start Up & Filling Requirements Whenever removing the fill cap or refilling the unit release any built up pressure in the reservoir by opening the manual air bleed valve. When refilling the heat exchanger should be running or the chamber quick disconnects detached from the unit so fluid will not run back from the lines or application to the reservoir and create an over-spill condition.
Start Up & Shut Down Before starting unit make sure the flow control valve located behind the access door on the front of the unit is closed to prevent excessive start- up pressures. The valve handle should be in the upright position. After the unit has started, open the valve until the desired flow and pressure is observed on the front panel displays.

If the interface cable is plugged into the incorrect port on the tool, the Steelhead controller can be damaged. Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ...
Section V Preventative Maintenance For personal safety and equipment reliability, the following procedures should only be performed by a qualified technician. Contact our Ser- vice Department for assistance (see Preface, After-sale Support). Shut down the system and lock the main circuit breaker in the OFF position before attempting any preventative maintenance.

Fluid Inspection/Draining Failure to remove corrosion by-products or particles in your system may rapidly lower resistivity, clog the particulate filter, and result in damage to the mechanical seals contained in the units pump. Before changing the fluid, lower the operating temperature of the unit to prevent injury from contact with the hot temperature fluid.
