SECTION 3: PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
D226 MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Maintenance should only be performed by authorized service personnel in order to ensure safe and effective workmanship, while minimizing danger to operating personnel. The D226 Steam Booster is designed to operate at temperatures capable of causing burns to personnel. Always allow the unit to cool down to an
acceptable temperature prior to performing any maintenance.
Very little maintenance is required to be performed on the D226 Booster. So long as the steam and water used with the unit have the proper filtration and are operated at the correct temperature and pressures, then you should expect many years of reliable service out of your system.
MAINTENANCE OF THE WATER PRESSURE REGULATOR:
Incoming water pressure can be regulated by adjusting the water pressure regulator on the system. In order to adjust pressure, loosen the top nut on the regulator. This will allow you to turn the adjusting screw. Turn the adjusting screw clockwise to increase pressure and
The water pressure regulator has an internal strainer that can be removed through the bottom hexagonal plug. This may need to be periodically checked depending on the water quality. It is important that the water supply to the water pressure regulator be secured prior to trying to clean the strainer.
MAINTENANCE OF THE RELIEF VALVES, SAFETY VALVES AND THERMOSTAT:
These components are shipped from the factory preset and should not be tampered with. None of these components are con- sidered adjustable and no attempt should be made to do so. If a component does not appear to be working properly, then it should be replaced immediately by an authorized service representative.
