Connect the TO PROCESS hookup to the entrance of the process and the FROM PROCESS
hookup to the exit of the process. Connect the COOLING WATER SUPPLY to your plant
water supply. Connect the COOLING WATER DRAIN line to an open drain, or to the return
line of your central water system. If returning to a central water system, use a
condensate/return tank to avoid a standing water column on the heat exchanger drain line.
Caution! If you are routing the drain line to an open drain, make sure that the line is
directed away from personnel to avoid scalding.
Carefully select connecting lines and connectors between the Upright unit
and the process to best meet the needs and requirements of your
application.
Make sure lines and connectors have a service rating of at least 100 psig
(689.5 kPa/6.9 bars), and a temperature rating at least equal to the
maximum operating temperature of your Upright unit.
Note: To prevent debris from fouling reservoir fluid, the Upright unit is equipped
with an internal vent on the reservoir tank. Use the plug provided to close off
the external fill port after filling the unit with heat transfer fluid.
