Operating at the recommended water level will ensure that the unit basin contains sufficient water volume to prevent air
entrainment in the circulating pump during system start-up and provides sufficient excess basin capacity to accept the
total system pull-down volume.

Optional Electric Water Level Control Package

As an option, an electric water level control package is available in lieu of the mechanical make-up assembly. The package
consists of a probe-type liquid level control assembly and a slow-closing solenoid valve. Stainless steel electrodes, factory-set
at predetermined lengths, extend from an electrode holder into the basin. For more information, refer to the Electric Water
Level Control Operation & Maintenance Manual available at BaltimoreAircoil.com.
Clean the stainless-steel electrodes periodically to prevent accumulations of scale, corrosion, sludge, or biological growth,
which could interfere with the electrical circuit.
The water level is maintained at the recommended operating level regardless of the system thermal load. Therefore, it is
not recommended that the operating level be adjusted.
During the start-up of units equipped with the electric water level control package, bypass the control unit in order to fill
the unit to the overflow connection.
