Summary

Safety Information

1.1 Intended Use

Confirm product suitability for intended application based on manual, name-plate and technical sheet.

1.2 Access

Ensure safe access and working platform, arrange suitable lifting gear if required.

1.3 Lighting

Ensure adequate lighting, especially for detailed or intricate work.

1.4 Hazardous Liquids or Gases in the Pipeline

Consider pipeline contents: flammables, health hazards, temperature extremes.

1.5 Hazardous Environment Around the Product

Consider explosion risk, oxygen deficiency, dangerous gases, temperature, fire, noise, machinery.

1.6 The System

Assess system impact of proposed actions; ensure no personnel or system parts are at risk.

1.7 Pressure Systems

Isolate pressure safely, vent, consider double isolation and valve locking/labelling.

1.8 Temperature

Allow time for temperature to normalize after isolation to prevent burns.

1.9 Tools and Consumables

Ensure suitable tools and consumables are available; use genuine Spirax Sarco parts.

1.10 Protective Clothing

Consider protective clothing for hazards like chemicals, temperature, radiation, noise, falling objects.

1.11 Permits to Work

Ensure work is supervised by competent person; comply with permit-to-work systems.

1.12 Handling

Assess risks for manual handling of heavy products and use appropriate methods.

Section 1 Installation

1. Heater Mounting and Clearance

Heater can be wall/floor mounted or ceiling suspended, requiring 3' clearance from floor for connections.

2. Steam Trap Discharge

Steam trap should discharge to 0 psig. Use automatic pump trap if condensate lift or back pressure is needed.

3. Pressure Relief Valve Installation

Install PRV at 75 PSIG (RH-30/60) or 50 PSIG (RH-90/120) if steam pressure may exceed limits.

4. Thermal Expansion Relief

Heater has integral relief valve for excess water pressure due to thermal expansion.

5. Temperature Gauge

Install temperature gauge in the hot water outlet piping.

6. Pressure Gauge and Pigtail Fitting

Install pressure gauge and pigtail on steam supply line, near the heat exchanger.

7. Standard Operating Steam Pressure

Standard steam pressure is 15 PSIG or less; set PRV at 15 PSIG if furnished.

8. Water Pressure Requirement

Water pressure must exceed steam pressure by 15 PSI for proper operation.

9. Connection Tightness Check

Check tightness of all connections.

10. Drain/Test Valve

Install a drain/test valve near the heater to assist with initial temperature adjustment.

RediHeat Start-Up Procedure

2.1 Initial Start-Up

Procedure for checking joints, setting temperature, and adjusting the blending valve for stable output.

Section 3 Maintenance

3.1 Blending Valve Disassembly

Step-by-step procedure for disassembling the blending valve for inspection and repair.

3.2 Blending Valve Re-assembly

Procedure for re-assembling the blending valve after maintenance or repair.

3.3 Heat Exchanger Inspection Disassembly

Procedure for accessing and inspecting the heat exchanger coil without disturbing piping.

3.4 Re-assembly

Procedure for re-assembling the heat exchanger coil and manifolds after inspection or cleaning.

Section 4 Troubleshooting

Water Temperature Is Too High

Diagnosing and resolving issues where the water temperature exceeds the set point.

Water Temperature Is Too Low

Diagnosing and resolving issues where the water temperature is below the set point.

Heat Exchanger Is Source of Problem

Troubleshooting steps when the heat exchanger is identified as the cause of temperature issues.

RediHeat Blending Valve Is Source of Problem

Troubleshooting steps when the blending valve is identified as the cause of temperature issues.

Restricted Water Flow

Diagnosing and resolving issues related to restricted water flow within the system.

Section 5 Recirculation Systems

A. Heat Tape Systems

Using heat tape to prevent heat loss in piping for instantaneous hot water delivery.

B. Bleed System

A single line system with a thermostatic bleed valve to maintain line temperature.

C. Forced Recirculation Loop - Diverting Valve with Fixed Thermostat

System using a circulating pump and fixed thermostat diverting valve for loop temperature control.

D. Forced Recirculation Loop (Diverting valve with adjustable thermostat)

System using a circulating pump and adjustable thermostat diverting valve for flexible temperature control.

Section 6 Ordering Spare Parts

Ordering Spare Parts Information

Information required for ordering spare parts, including contact details and essential identification data.
