2.1 Supply water
Only use mains water with:
pressure between 0.1 and 0.8 MPa (14.5 and 116 PSI), temperature •
between 1 and 40 °C (33.8 and104 °F) and an instant ow-rate no lower
than the rated ow of the ll solenoid valve, the connection is G3/4M
(see par. “11.2 Technical speci cations”);
range hardness 10 to 40 °F (equal to 400 ppm of CaCO•
3
), conductivity:
75 to 1250 µS/cm;
no organic compounds.•

There is not reliable relationship between hardness and conductivity of
the water
Important:
Important:
do not treat the water with softeners, this may cause the entrainment
•
of foam, a ecting the operation of the unit;
do not add disinfectants or anticorrosive compounds to the water, as •
these are potential irritants;
the use of well water, industrial water or water from cooling circuits •
and, in general, any potentially chemically or bacteriologically
contaminated water is not recommended.
2.2 Drain water
this contains the same substances dissolved in the supply water, •
however in larger quantities;
it may reach a temperature of 100 °C (212 °F);
•
it is not toxic and can be drained into the sewerage system.•
