Electric Steam Generator (Optional Equipment) - BÖWE M12 Instruction Manual

6. Operation

6.1.10. Electric Steam Generator (Optional Equipment)

The electric steam generator supplies the heater battery on the drycleaning machine. The steam
generator fills with water and regulates the water level fully automatically. The operating pressure is
5 bar (87 psi). A pressure control switch, which is adjusted at the factory, controls the pressure.
Safety valve 8.5 bar (123.3 psi), steam pressure gauge, overheating protection, thermal sensor,
drain valve and level sensor are built in.
When you turn the machine on, the water is brought to the correct level automatically.
Aerating the steam line:
The steam line is aerated automatically. The aeration line (Ø 6 mm or .2 in) is fed to the sewer line.
When the electric steam generator cools off, an underpressure forms; this is an indication of proper
aeration and sealing.
Note:
In case the heating up temperature is not reached, a note will appear on the display. This can be
remedied by a new start of drying.
