Installing the plant

Only for authorised techni-
cians!
!
Assembly
ATTENTION
Always keep the installation site of the sys-
tem well ventilated to protect the machine
against over-heating.
– The appliance should not be directly at-
tached to the network of water and high
pressure pipes. It is mandatory to install
the connecting hoses.
– A shut-off tap must be installed be-
tween the main water supply and the
connecting hose.
Installing the high pressure
connections
For installation, please follow the specifica-
tions of the VDMA sheet 24416 "High pres-
sure cleaners; fixed high pressure cleaning
systems; concepts, requirements, installa-
tion, testing" (the German version can be
procured from Beuth Verlag, Cologne,
www.beuth.de).
– The pressure loss in the pipe connec-
tions must lie below 1.5 MPa.
– The completed pipe connections must
be checked using 32 MPa.
– The insulation of the pipes must be re-
sistant to temperatures until 100 °C.
Water supply
ATTENTION
Risk of damage to the plant if water supply
is not of suitable quality.
Note: Impurities in the inlet water can dam-
age the unit. Kärcher recommends a water
filter with a mesh width of < 80 μm.
Quality requirements for tap water:
pH value
electrical conductivity
removable materials
filterable materials (grain
size below 0.025 mm)
Hydrocarbons
Chloride
Calcium
Total hardness
Iron
Manganese
Copper
free of bad odours
* Test volume 1litre, Settling time 30 min-
utes
** decalcification measures are necessary
if the values are higher
 The water inlet is to be connected to the
main water supply using a water hose.
– The water supply must have a minimum
output of 6,000 l/h for HDC 60/12,
9,000 l/h for HDC 90/12, 12,000 l/h for
HDC 120/12 at minimum 0.15 MPa
(HDC 60/12, HDC 90/12) or at minimum
0.2 MPa (HDC 120/12).
– Appliances without prepressure pump:
The water temperature must lie below
60 °C.
– Machines with prepressure pump: The
water temperature must lie below 85
°C.
Note: Operating procedures create short
term power sinkings. During unfavorable
net conditions other devices might be dis-
turbed.
– For connection values, see technical
data and type plate.
– The electrical connections must be
done by an electrician according to IEC
60364-1.
– Current-carrying parts, cables and ap-
pliances in the working area must be in-
stalled in a defectless state and must be
protected against water sprays.
– HDC 60/12 (H): This device complies
with IEC 61000-3-12 under the condi-
tion that the short-circuit power Ssc at
the connecting point between the cus-
tomer system and the public mains is
greater than or equal to 10400 (11000)
kVA. It is within the responsibility of the
electrician or the user of the unit to en-
sure - if necessary after consulting the
mains operating company - that the de-
vice is only connected to a point of an
Ssc value greater than or equal to
10400 (11000) kVA.
DANGER
To avoid accidents due to electrical faults
we recommend the use of sockets with a
line-side current-limiting circuit breaker
(max. 30 mA nominal tripping current).
