Make sure that the temperature along the inlet hose does not rise above 40 °C. If the room in which the water treatment unit is installed does not have a floor drain, MELAG recommends a leakage water detector (e.g. water stop from MELAG), which shuts off the water supply in the event of damage via a moisture sensor on the floor and with the help of a solenoid valve.
(backflow pre- venter) and anti-vacuum valve, MELAG recommends one of the two alternative connections described in the following. PLEASE NOTE To prevent water damage, MELAG recommends the use of a leakage water detector e.g. the MELAG water stop.
4 Setup and installation Protection with a safety combination HD in accordance with EN 1717 Consumers (devices) must be connected to the tap water system according to EN 1717 so that the tap water system is protected from pollution. To this end, fit a safety combination HD in accordance with EN 1717 Part 4 to the connection point.
Water distributor for connecting further devices MELAG recommends the water distributor (art. no. ME69005) for connection of multiple devices. The water distributor is connected to the pipe elbow on the output side of the mixed-bed resin cartridge. An additional washer-disinfector, e.g. a MELAtherm 10 and a maximum of three other (combined) steam sterilizers can be optionally connected to the unused connections.
