Type BA. Water that has flowed through a system sep-
arator is classified as undrinkable. Always connect the
system separator to the water supply and never directly
to the water connection on the device.
1. Check the feed pressure, input temperature and in-
put amount of the water supply. See the "Technical
data" section for the requirements.
2. Connect the system separator and water connection
of the device with a hose (minimum length 7.5 m,
minimum diameter 1").
The supply hose is not included in the scope of de-
livery.

stalled high-pressure cleaning systems must be ob-
served.
1. Connect the device to the permanently installed pip-
ing using a high-pressure hose line.
2. Route the permanently installed piping with as few
changes in direction as possible.
3. Route the piping using padded loose and fixed clips
to compensate for pressure and thermal expansion.
4. Minimum line cross-sections:
a Pipelines: Nominal width DN 15 (1/2").
b Hose lines: Nominal width DN 6.
