Operating Pressures

Water Pressure Drop

Table 4 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.

Start-up Checklist and Log

Use the form on page 30 to log system and unit temperatures during start-up.

WARNING

Live Electrical Components!

During installation, testing, servicing and troubleshooting of this product, it may be necessary to work with live electrical components. Have a qualified licensed electrician or other individual who has been properly trained in handling live electrical components perform these tasks. Failure to follow all electrical safety pre- cautions when exposed to live electrical components could result in death or serious injury.
