1. 19 DESCALING INSTRUCTIONS The descale procedure with the HELO HSX steam generator is easy to carry out Use only the recommended citric acid according to the instruction beneath Helo HSX steam generators are supplied with a plugged descale access pipe for filling the tank with the mixture Descale instructions step by step Add 50g of citric acid into 1 liter of fresh water and mix well Open the descale plastic cover on the generator and open the cap on the pipe Pour the mixture into the tank of the steam generator and close the cap Start up the steam generator and let the citric acid solution boil in the tank for approx 10 minutes Stop the generator and depending on if there is a automatic or manual valve proceed as following a Automatic drain valve The tank drains and flushes itself 15 minutes after the stop command After the drain and flush start the generator and let it fill up with water before pressing the stop button again and Wait for the tank to drain again This flush procedure can be carried out 3 5 times b Manual drain valve After the boiling procedure wait and let the citric acid stand in the tank for approx 15 minutes then drain the tank by opening the manual valve After the tank is empty close the valve and start up the generator again and let it fill up with fresh water After that press the stop button and drain the tank again This flush procedure can be carried out 3 5 times poll2. The steam generator is ready for use after descaling and if a smell of citrus occurs in the steam room it is not harmful to the health and can be eliminated by flushing the generator again STEAM GENERATOR IN PUBLIC USE In addition to the descale procedure above it is advisable to maintain a proper service interval on a steam generator in public use run time 5 hours or more per day This service for example made every 6th month more often if the water conditions require should consist of a visual check on the interior of the tank the scale build up on elements and level probe The tank can be cleaned on the inside through the fastening holes of the elements 20 Saunatec HELO HSX Steam generator Split kit user and mounting instruction Read Instructions carefully before fitting NOTE All plumbing and electrical installation work may be carried out by authorized personnel only and in accordance with local installation and wiring regulations SPLIT KIT 1 2 3 with adjustable drain cycle The HSX Split kit is used when connecting 2 or more max 4 HSX steam generators to generate steam for bigger steam rooms The Split kit contents the cables and connectors needed The PC board is equipped with a DIP switch see drawing for activating each steam generator and adjusting the drain cycle The HSX ste
