Connect a 1/2" basin-type condensation, fitted
with a filter (SPIRAX SARCO HM 007 or
JUCKER SA8); to the condensation return
junction drain "POS. 3". A gate valve must be
fitted after the drain to avoid backpressure.
A ball valve must be fitted
return pipe "POS. 68" (1/2" gas pipe) to allow the
isolation of the machine from the plant.
COMPRESSED AIR
CONNECTION
(FOR MACHINE WITH COMPRESSED AIR
FEED
(SEE DRAWING PAGE 10-5, FIG ON THE LOW)
The machine needs to be fed with clean
compressed air, without condensation or oil, at a
pressure of 7 bar (100 psi).
Fit a rilsan or zinc-platted 1/4" gas pipe to within 1
meter of the machine. Assemble a three-way ball
tap or a sliding tap on its end "POS. 25".
This three-way ball valve serves to feed the
machine (position 1 = ON = OK) or to turn off the
supply (position 0 = OFF = STOP) by discharging
the air remaining in the machine through the
silencer.
This ensures that whenever any maintenance is
required, there is the guarantee that there is no
danger from compressed air (jets of air, etc.)
simply by turning the air ball valve to the 0 = OFF
= STOP position (or letting the ring nut slip).
Using a pipe in rilsan, ∅inside=6mm (≅0,47
inches) resistant up to a pressure of at least 20
bars (290 psi), connect the tap to the compressed
air filter "POS. 13" of the machine.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

(SEE DRAWING PAGE 10-5, FIG ON THE TOP)
Ensure that the mains voltage and phase
correspond with the data given on the machine
specification plate (see page 2-1).
Prepare an electrical
indicated on the table shown in the drawing on
page 10-5. Insert the cable in the holder "POS. 8",
block it with the collar "POS. 9" and connect with
the clamps to the electrical current.

Page 4-3
The electrical supply line must be fitted with an
automatic differential heat safety cutout switch 30
mA with a mechanical plug and socket block.
The machine as per the rules in force must be
connected to a good earth, or the guarantee will
not be honoured.
Before first testing the machine, check that none
of the electrical connectors have worked loose
during transport.
After connection to the electricity supply, check
the rotation direction of the motors (fan). If the
direction is wrong, invert the connection of two of
the three phases supply wires.
Replace all the panels and protection devices
when the electrical connections have been
completed.

USE OF THE FORMER

PRELIMINARY CONTROLS

a) Check that the ball valves fitted on the steam
pipe "POS. 67" and on the condensation
return pipe "POS. 68" are open (see page 10-
4).
b) In the case of machine with compressed
air feed, check that the ball tap for the
compressed air feed "POS. 25" (see page
10-5) is open
condensation deposited in the compressed
air filter bowl by turning the tap "POS. 1"
(see page 10-5).
At first, when the machine is cold, the steam will
condense rapidly and it is therefore advisable to
wait a few minutes before starting work so that the
condensation can be drained off.
If it is not done, condensation formed will emerge
from the steam pipes, damaging the garments
being processing.

START-UP OF THE MACHINE

(SEE DRAWINGS PAGES 13-1 AND 13-2)
Proceed as follows:
a) Turn on the general
switch.
b) Turn on the main switch "POS. 69" on the
electrical panel of the machine.
