A circulation factor for the efficient opweration of flanged and circulation heters are proper installation after taking all the necessary precautions.
1. Before starting the installation, ensure:
A. The pressure and temperature of the flange does not exceed the specified
standards, especially when installing in an enclosure space.
B. The wattage and capacity of the heater meet the heating requirements.
C. You are using the most appropriate sheath material depending on the chemical
composition of the solution.
D. The sheath is not corroded. This could cause a ground fault that may result in a fire
or explosion.
E. You have installed a sufficient number of safety devices and backup controls.
F. The equipment is not damaged during shipment. If the equipment is damaged,
contact, your supplier at once. Do not use damaged equipment.
G. The line voltage meets the heater’s requirements, and the surface of the gasket is
clean and dry. The capacity of the power supply should be at least 25% more than
the required amperage of the heater.
H. There isn’t any sludge or other deposit at the bottom of the tan
I. There is sufficient space to remove the heater for cleaning and replacement.
2. Once the above precautions have been taken, disconnect power to the heater before
starting the installation.
3. Once the above precautions have been taken, disconnect power to the heater before
starting the installation.
4. Make sure the heater is properly grounded and that the wiring is in accordance with Local
and/or National Electrical Codes.
5. When installing, place the heater as low as possible in the tank. The heating element should
always be submerged (with at least 2" of liquid above it) or else the heater will overheat.
This could result in fire or an explosion.
6. f the heater has a thermostat, do not bend the capillary tube too much as this will decalibrate the thermostat and it will not work properly
7. Do not allow the capillary tube to touch the thermostat contacts as this could cause a short
circuit.
8. If installing the flanged heater in a horizontal position, place the entire unit at an elevation toenable ample air circulation around the heater.
9. If installing the flanged heater vertically, use a drip loop to prevent condensation from
entering the terminal enclosure. If the heater uses a thermo well to control temperatures
and prevent overheating, make sure it is installed in a way that no moisture collects in the
thermo well. This may damage the heater. Fill the thermo wells with silicone fluid, if installing
the heater with the terminal enclosure pointing upwards.
10. While installing, ensure the heater is not in contact with any inflammable or combustible
materials.
11. Finally, before switching on the heater, ensure the gasket is in place and the flange is
securely bolted to the tank. Look for and tighten all loose connections.
