Water Pressure Drop
Tables 6 and 7 should be used to define feet of head/pressure drop. Note: To calculate feet of head, when using gauges that read in PSIG,
multiply PSI by 2.31.
Flow Checks
For the operating temperature drop (heating) and rise (cooling), refer to Table OP1 and OP2 for the proper water tempera-
ture change. Depending on the unit size, entering water temperature and water flow rate, the cooling temperature rise is
from 8°F-16°F. Based on the same criteria for heating, the temperature drop is from 2°F-13°F.
Pressure
Using the P/T ports and one 0-60 psi pressure gauge with the P/T port adapter, measure the pressure difference between
the water-in and water-out connections. Compare the pressure differential to Table 6 to determine flow.
Start-up Checklist and Log
Use the form on page 24 to log system and unit temperatures during start-up.
