Make sure that the unit location is not in a confined space to ensure proper air circulation. Special air circulation/ventilation is required for units operating at temperatures exceeding 500ºF (260ºC). Vapors can escape from areas such as the reservoir tank during high temperature operation.

!CAUTION

Harmful vapors may be generated from thermal fluid during high temperature operation.

Prolonged or repeated exposure of these hot-generated vapors may result in eye and respiratory tract irritation.

Avoid contact or inhaling harmful amounts of material. Consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for precautions and instructions for the thermal fluid you are using.

Note: Before storing your 6017 temperature control unit, make sure you remove all residual water with compressed air to avoid a potential freezing hazard.

Note the following table of ambient temperature ranges permitted for storage and operation:

You should preheat the process heat transfer fluid first if you want to start the unit below an ambient temperature of 30ºF (-1ºC).

3-3 Connecting Piping

Make sure that all external piping is properly sized to reduce external pressure drop as much as possible. Do not install process or water supply/drain piping smaller than the fittings on the unit. If the water supply piping is larger than unit fittings, reduce the pipe size at the unit.
