Drain and flush options
VAPOR-LOGIC
®
3
is preprogrammed to enter an
automatic drain, flush and refill cycle to help keep
mineral concentrations in the tank to a minimum. The
method by which this is accomplished is selected by
the user through the keypad/display in the Set Up
screen. The three options available are:
1.Flush after usage
2. Flush at a certain time after usage, and
3. Flush at a certain time
Please note that these options are only available with
a standard water system having an automatic drain
valve. If the humidifier is configured for DI/RO
water, or if the unit has a manual drain valve, these
drain and flush options are not available.
In the flush after usage mode, the humidifier will
enter the drain and flush sequence after a user-
selected amount of water has been converted to
steam. In other words, if the user set the drain and
flush interval to 10,000 pounds, the unit will enter the
drain and flush sequence the moment 10,000 pounds
of water have been boiled.
In the flush at a certain time after usage mode, the
humidifier will enter the drain and flush sequence at
a specific time after a user-selected amount of water
has been converted to steam. In other words, if the
user sets the drain and flush interval to 10,000
pounds and the ADS Hour to 2, the unit will enter the
drain and flush sequence at 2:00 am after 10,000
pounds of water have been boiled. This allows the
user to keep the humidifier on line until a convenient
time for the drain and flush sequence.
Operation:
Drain and flush, skim
Drain and flush, skim.
Operation
In the flush at a certain time mode, the humidifier will
enter the drain and flush sequence at a specific time,
ignoring the amount of water that has been converted
to steam. In other words, if the user sets the ADS
Hour to 2, and the ADS Interval to 7 days, the unit will
enter the drain and flush sequence every 7 days at
2:00 am.
When VAPOR-LOGIC
3
initiates the drain and flush
sequence, all activated heat sources are deactivated.
The drain valve is then opened to allow the tank to
drain. The drain valve remains open during the flush
sequence for drainage while the fill valve is open. At
the completion of the flush cycle, the drain valve
closes allowing the fill valve to refill the tank. For
multiple tank systems, only one tank at a time enters
the drain and flush sequence in order to keep as much
capacity available as possible.
Skim timer
With a standard water configuration, the
VAPOR-LOGIC
3
controller comes equipped with a
skim timer. This timer is activated at the end of each
fill cycle. The timer keeps the fill valve open for a
user-determined amount of time after the tank has
filled to skim minerals off the water surface. The
skim time is adjusted through the Set Up screen on
the keypad/display.
