Water Supply - Mi-T-M Corporation 37-1438 Manual Del Operador

INSTALLATION & PREPARATION

WATER SUPPLY:

Pressurized Supply:
1. Select a water supply hose which is a quality grade of garden hose
measuring at least ¾" ID and no longer than 50 feet.
2. Ensure the water strainer is clean and free of obstructions. When
applicable, check float tank for any foreign objects or debris. If water flow
becomes restricted to the pump, cavitation can occur which will cause
premature failure of the pump packings.
3. Connect one end of the water supply hose to the swivel with filter or float
tank inlet and connect the other end to the pressurized water supply.
NOTE: If there is a high mineral content in your water, it is recom-
mended that a water softener be used to prevent the possibility of
excessive scale buildup inside the heat exchanger coil.
4. Follow the incoming water requirements listed below:
a. Water pressure must be between a minimum of 40 PSI and a
maximum of 65 PSI.
b. Incoming GPM must be approximately one gallon more per minute
than the outgoing GPM stated on the machine nameplate. (You
can check the GPM of yoursource by timing the filling of a 5 gallon
container.)
c. Incoming water temperature must not exceed 125°F. Excessive pump
damage may result if the water temperature exceeds this level.
5. Never allow the unit to operate without the incoming water line attached
and the water supply completely turned on.
