Steam Connection - GIRBAU HS-6085 Installation Instructions Manual

Steam connection

Installation characteristics
Before connecting the installation to the solenoid valve, purge the pipe conduits.
Place a mechanically lockable flow valve in the steam inlet in an accessible place.
Check dimensions and connection diameters in the Installation
specs (section 1.4).
HS-6040, EH090, HS-6057, EH130 models.
(HS-6040, EH090, HS-6057, EH130 TILT models, see section
3.4.1.)
Generally the body of the steam solenoid valve and the filter
are shipped disassembled from the electric installation. The
coil is connected to the end of the electrical installation.
Assembly and solenoid valve connection
Make sure the coil has been previously removed from its
transport position.
The electrical wiring must be fastened to the cut out VE on the
rear cover (see Fig. 1.3 and section 2.4).
Place the solenoid valve on the end of the steam inlet pipe of
the machine.
Machines USA/Canada: place the small steam inlet hose (A.
Fig. 3.8) to the filter inlet, (The end with NPT thread must be
assembled to the steam conduits; the end with GAS thread
must be connected to the filter).
Respect the steam circulation direction indicated by an arrow
on each part.
Connect the steam supply of the installation to the washer inlet.
Safeguard the installation against accidental contact. It is advisable to insulate the installation to prevent heat
loss.
Place the coil on the solenoid valve body and fasten it with the core end screw.
Open the manual valve and check for leaks in the installation.
SEAL ALL THREADED UNIONS WITH A PRODUCT WHICH IS APPROPRIATE FOR STEAM PIPE
CONDUITS.
HS-6085, HS-6110, EH190, EH255 models
(TILT models, refer to section 3.4.1.)
Assemble the steam filter to the pneumatic valve inlet.
Respect the steam's circulation direction indicated by an
arrow in the filter's body.
Machines in USA/Canada: assemble the steam inlet hose to
the filter inlet.
ATTENTION!
HS-6085, HS-6110, EH190 and EH255 MODELS ONLY.
The admission of steam in the bath causes strong
vibrations that can damage the inner drum bottom.
To avoid them, the machine has a pneumatic injector
device (Fig- 3.9). To ensure its correct operation, it is
VERY IMPORTANT to perform the following operations:
Check that the steam inlet pressure does not exceed 4

bar (60 PSI).
Check that the compressed air feeding pressure is

between 6 and 7bar (87-100 PSI).
Adjust the compressed air injection regulator (Fig.

3.8), during the steam intake, until noise and vibration
are reduced to a minimum.
Tighten A locknut to fasten the regulator position.
