7.5 Fluid Fill
Fill the reservoir to within 2” (50mm) from the top of the reservoir or fill port (or as noted with
the sight glass on certain models) with the proper heat transfer fluid.
It is recommended that the unit be allowed to run for a few minutes before the reservoir is
completely filled. This allows the air to bleed from the lines more easily. Vent the air out of
the system. It is helpful to open a valve or a fitting at the system high point (while the system
is running) and bleed the air until fluid starts to flow, then close the valve or retighten the
fitting.
7.6 Starting the Unit
Turn on the unit; flip the toggle switch to “ON” position. The unit will initialize and conduct a
self test. If there is adequate fluid in the system it will then start. There is a float switch in the
reservoir that will turn on the “PUMP ALARM” light and stop the unit if the fluid level falls
below a float level. This is likely to happen the first time you fill the system. If this happens,
flip the toggle switch to the “OFF” position, fill the unit again with the heat transfer fluid and
repeat this procedure until the system is filled.
CAUTION: Check pump rotation on 3 phase units at this time. Follow the instructions on the
power cord tag if the pump rotation is not correct. Incorrect pump rotation will eventually
cause internal component damage!
7.7 Temperature Setting and Adjustment
OPTI TEMP systems are designed to operate within a certain specified temperature range.
All systems are not designed to operate under or over the range. It is important that you do
not operate the system outside of this intended fluid operating range. Please refer to Section
5.2 for the operating range of your system.
CAUTION: System damage and/or personal injury may result if you fail to operate in the
specified temperature range.
Love Controller
This will discuss the basic control operation and the basic settings for both the 16B and 16A
temperature controllers. For more complete instruction on the operation of the temperature
controller and available options, please refer to the Instruction Manual for the temperature
controller included with this manual.
