Note
Under most feedwater
conditions, the 11-12 GPH
flow rate will provide
greater than 60°C at the
condenser vent. Very cold
feedwater may require
slightly less than 11-12
GPH to maintain vent
temperature above 60°C.
To optimize product water
purity, use thermometer to
verify vent temperature to
> 60°C.
Caution
Do not use the flowmeter to turn
the water off.
Caution
Always allow the unit to cool
completely before resuming op-
eration. Cool water on hot glass
could cause boiler damage.
