HOT WATER SUPPLY APPLICATIONS
Cer-Temp 80 Recovery Systems
WATER LINE CONNECTIONS
This section provides detailed installation diagrams for typical
methods of application for the unit using a Cer-Temp 80 Recovery
System (for one temperature water).
This equipment must be protected against loss of water or loss of
water flow by the installation of a safety flow switch in the outlet
piping from the boiler. Piping and wiring diagrams show the
application of this accessory for this purpose.
These diagrams will serve to provide the installer with a reference
for the materials and methods of piping necessary for installation.
It is essential that all water and gas piping, vent connections,
electrical wiring, and check and flow regulating valves be installed
as shown on the diagrams.
Where excessive heat exchanger condensation exists due to
continued low water inlet temperatures, a bypass balance loop
must be installed (see page 15).
HARD WATER CONDITIONS
Where hard water conditions exist, water softening or the threshold
type of water treatment is recommended. This will protect the
dishwashers, coffee urns, water heaters, water piping and other
equipment. When water softening or water treatment is not
practical, a comparatively easy method of periodic lime removal
from the unit must be employed.
WARNING
Lime accumulation can reduce the life of the equipment, reduce
efficiency and waste fuel. Boiler failure due to lime or scale build-
up voids the warranty.
These units are so constructed that lime removal is simple and
complete, see PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE.
