INTENDED USE AND AUDIENCE

The ID heater is designed to safely heat DI water up to 100°C. The ID heater is
not intended for use with combustible or flammable chemistries, such as
solvents, or chemistries such as HF or KOH with accelerated quartz etch rates.
This manual only covers the Trebor ID heater and heater accessories provided
by Trebor. The user is responsible for the external control system and all
necessary connections required to safely operate the heater (see Sections 4.3
and 7)
The Trebor ID heater is not to be used for proposes other than that which is
designed for. The heater and optional components are to be used only with
liquids and parameters stated within this manual. This manual assumes
personnel are familiar with the installation, operation and maintenance
requirements of DI water heaters.
The ID heater is intended for use by properly trained personnel. Read and
understand this manual prior to installation and/or operation of the heater. Do
not use this equipment until familiar with its operation and safety features.

HEATER SIZING

In order to maximize efficiency and the life
of the heater, it is best to maximize flow
through the heater. When using multiple
heaters in low flow applications (usually
single pass) plumbing the heaters in
series is generally the best. If using high
flows and pressure drop is a concern,
plumbing the heaters in parallel is best.
Use Figure 1-1 or the formula below to determine the required heater(s) size for
the application.
NOTE: Figure 1-1 shows approximate temperature change in water.
