General points for installation
Placement of Franke Mythos Water Hub
Ensure sufficient space in the kitchen cabinet and
easy accessibility for service and maintenance
work. There must be enough space at the back of
the unit for the warm air from the exhaust to escape
(min. 5-10 cm). Therefore, Franke recommends
a depths of min. 550 mm, a width of min. 200 mm
and a height of min. 440 mm for the cabinet.
Ventilation of the kitchen cabinet
For a good performance of Franke Mythos Water
Hub, the kitchen cabinet in which the unit is installed
must be sufficiently ventilated. Therefore, an
opening of approx. 20 × 40 cm (800 cm²) in the rear
panel of the cabinet or similar openings in the base
plate with at least 5 cm clearance to the floor and at
the sides must be provided.
We recommend installing Franke Mythos Water Hub
in the following order:
1.
Prepare the installation.
2. Install the safety valve (only for All in One unit).
3. Connect the water supply.
4. Connect device.
Install the pressure relief valve as high as
possible in the kitchen cabinet (only for All-in-One
unit).
During installation, tight each connection
carefully.
Installation steps
When transporting Franke Mythos Water Hub
to the installation site, cooling fluid may have run
into the lines. To ensure that the cooling fluid has run
back, the device may only be switched on following
a pause of at least 2 hours.
Notice: The installation can be prepared, but the
power supply for the device must not be switched
on at this stage.
Check the details in the "Installation manual",
pages 3-10.
Prepare the installation (only for All in One
unit) ("Installation manual", pages 3-6)
1.
Check if all installation requirements are fulfilled
e.g. space, connections etc.
2. Turn off the mains water supply and close the
angle valves. If not available, mark the existing
cold and hot water connection.
3. Install tap.
Install the safety valve (only for All in One
unit) ("Installation manual", pages 6-7)
1.
The shut-off cock of the safety valve (3) must be
closed. Check by turning the cock to the right.
The expansion relief valve of the safety group is
factory calibrated to 8 bar.
Notice: For safety reasons, water may escape
from the blow-off line when heating up during
operation.
2. Connect the flexible water hose (5, red tag) to
the safety valve (3).
Notice: Install the safety group against the flow
direction indicated by the arrow on the backside
of the safety group.
3. Connect the expansion water hose (2) to the
safety valve (3).
Notice: Ensure that the hose is fully inserted and
that there is no gap between the safety valve
and the hose from which water can leak.
4. Mount the safety valve (3) at the highest point
below the deck in the cabinet and screw in the
clipboard screws (9).
Notice: The safety valve (3) must be positioned
clearly above the connection to the drain. This
ensures that the water flows only into the drain
and not back to the safety group. The distance to
the unit must be < 1 m to use the enclosed
flexible water hose.
5. Connect the T-join drain (4) to the drain. Connect
the other end of the expansion water hose (2) to
the T-joint drain (4).
Notice: The drain of the safety valve needs to be
placed after the syphon. If necessary, the
expansion water hose can be shortened with
a knife. Make sure the cut edge is straight.
Ensure that the hose is fully inserted.
Notice: Form a water lock with the expansion
water hose (2) and secure it with the tie-wrap (1).
