    GUIDANCE NOTES TUNDISH DISCHARGE The unit is supplied with two mechanical safety devices. An expansion relief valve, supplied loose, and a temperature/pressure relief valve fitted to the unit, both discharging into a tundish (supplied loose). Discharge pipes must be left open to atmosphere, not blocking the tundish. The responsibility for supplying and fitting the discharge pipe from the tundish is that of the certified installer.

    ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Immersion heaters are rated 3kw at 240v (2.76kw at 230v), incolloy elements, with a thermal energy cut- out, and must be connected via double pole switches with a 3mm contact gap separation. Appropriate wiring for the electrical load must be used. The twin immersion heaters supplied with direct units can be switched to utilise low tariff electricity supply.
