Startup of Heated Units
Some models heat the fluid, which can
cause equipment surfaces to become very
hot. To avoid severe burns:
• Do not operate Reactor E-10 without all
covers and shrouds in place.
• Do not touch hot fluid or equipment.
• Allow equipment to cool completely
before touching it.
• Wear gloves if fluid temperature exceeds
110°F (43°C).
1. Perform Setup, pages 16-23.
2. Set function knob to Slow Recirc or
Fast Recirc . See Heatup Guide-
lines, page 25, then continue with steps
3-6.
OR
3. Turn on Heater Power.
4. Temporarily set heater control knobs to
maximum setting.
5. Circulate through heaters until tempera-
ture readouts display desired tempera-
ture. See T ABLE 4 below.
6. Adjust heater control knobs as neces-
sary for a stable spray temperature.
Table 4: Heatup Time Guidelines for starting a cold machine with 5 gal. (19 l) per side (see
Notes below)
Fluid Spray Target
Temperature
35 ft (10.7 m) Hose
(1 bundle)
70 ft (21 m) Hose
(2 bundles)
125°F (52°C) 20 minutes 25 minutes
150°F (65°C) 40 minutes 50 minutes
Use fast circulation until temperature is within 20°F (11°C) of target,
then use slow circulation to reach final temperature.
Different fluids will absorb heat at different rates. When refilling a warm
machine, heatup times will be less.
