Location - FLOWTECH Flowpress Mini Single Operation And Maintenance Manual

2 LOCATION - GENERAL
2.11 Location: The Flowpress Mini must be located on a solid wall of sufficient strength to
support the filled weight of the Flowpress Mini, close to the water source and a suitable
exclamat
overflow position (see Section 10 - Technical Specification for filled weight). The
Flowpress Mini must not be installed in a loft space. It must also be considered that
the noise and vibration from the Flowpress Mini may be transmitted through the structure
it is sited on. Ensure the minimum clearance requirements are followed to allow servicing
of the unit.
2.12 Access and minimum clearance requirements: For emergencies and maintenance
the Flowpress Minimust be easily accessible and have the minimum clearance
around it as laid out in Fig. 2. Additional access to the front of the unit will be required to operate
the keypad and view the display.
2.13 Protection: The Flowpress Mini must be located in a dry, frost free area.
2.14 Ventilation: Ensure an adequate air flow to cool the Flowpress Mini.
Separate the Flowpress Mini from other appliances that generate heat.
Do not block the vent holes on the front cover.
2.15 Water retention: Site the Flowpress Mini in a location where in the unlikely event of a water leak,
any spillage is contained or routed to avoid electrics or areas sensitive to water damage. As part of
the AB airgap (CAT 5 fluid isolation) the Flowpress Mini has a weir type overflow on the front, water
will be discharged from this area in the event of the failure of the inlet valve or non-return valve.
2.16 Supply inlet pressure: The water supply inlet pressure must not exceed 7 bar.
2.17 Ambient temperature: The Flowpress Mini must be sited in a location where the
ambient temperature does not drop below 4 °C or exceed 40 °C.
2.18 Pipework: For optimum performance inlet and outlet pipework must be a minimum of 15 mm
pipe.
