These values are dependent on regular blow down during operation and regular sump purge.
(*) Note that the cycles of concentration is not an independent variable and its value strictly dependent on the ratio between feed water and recirculating
water (total hardness, conductivity, chloride, sulphate, silica). This ratio is managed by blow down operation dened through the “Conductivity threshold”
and “Delta” (Hysteresis) settings. During the evaporation, the water constituents concentration and the water conductivity increase, once it reaches the
threshold, bleed o starts and fresh water is reclaimed with consequent reduction of the water constituents and conductivity.
(**) Mandatory requirement if dosage of anti-scalant or anti-corrosive to manage Puckorius Scaling Index (PSI) has not been performed, instead, if a dosage
has been performed, Puckorius Scaling Index (PSI) is not required to be inside that limits.

Avoid the contact of any part of the EFC with any type of organic solvent and aggressive detergent even if present
in aqueous and/or diluted solution. Use only approved chemicals for descaling, anticorrosion, disinfection and cleaning: not
approved substances could damage the unit components and invalidate the warranty. Contact Vertiv™ Service for approved
It is recommended to check the feeding water quality, and it is mandatory to check the recirculated water quality to ensure the
values match with the requirement listed on table 3.1 / 3.2 and record the values in accordance with the frequency in table 3.3,

becomes the minimum requirement.
