Поставување и инсталација

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of the Flamco XStream Vent-Clean. It should be installed in the main flow of the heating or cooling system.

Упатства за инсталација:

1. Подготовка на системот: Пред инсталацијата, проверете дали системот е депривиран и испразнет.
2. Локација: Install the separator at a point where air and dirt accumulation is most likely, typically in the return line before the boiler or chiller.
3. Ориентација: The Flamco XStream Vent-Clean can be installed horizontally or vertically. The design allows for flexible orientation without affecting performance.
4. Врски: Connect the unit using appropriate fittings (DN25 G 1 1/4" M). Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks.
5. Пополнување на системот: After installation, slowly refill the system, allowing air to escape through the automatic air vent on the separator.
6. Почетна операција: Monitor the system for any leaks and ensure proper operation.

Оперативни принципи

The Flamco XStream Vent-Clean operates passively to remove air and dirt from the system fluid. It utilizes a unique internal design to create a low-velocity zone where microbubbles and dirt particles can separate from the fluid.

• Air Separation: Microbubbles rise to the top of the unit and are automatically discharged through the integrated air vent.
• Dirt Separation: Dirt particles, including magnetite, settle at the bottom of the unit due to gravity and are collected in the dirt chamber. The magnetic field assists in collecting ferrous particles.
• Континуирано работење: The separation process is continuous as long as the system is in operation, ensuring ongoing protection and efficiency.

Одржување

Regular maintenance ensures the continued efficiency and longevity of your Flamco XStream Vent-Clean.

Cleaning the Dirt Separator:

1. Фреквенција: The dirt chamber should be flushed periodically, depending on the system's condition and the amount of dirt collected. Initially, it may require more frequent flushing.
2. Постапка:
   • Ensure the system is operating under normal pressure.
   • Locate the drain valve at the bottom of the separator.
   • Place a suitable container under the drain valve.
   • Slowly open the drain valve to flush out accumulated dirt and sludge.
   • Close the drain valve once the water runs clear.
3. Magnetic Rod (if applicable): If your model includes a removable magnetic rod, it can be extracted and cleaned separately to remove ferrous particles. Ensure the system is depressurized before removing the magnetic rod.

Air Vent Check:

The automatic air vent typically requires no maintenance. However, ensure it is not obstructed and can freely discharge air. If persistent air issues occur, check for blockages.
