SYSTEM PREPARATION
Prior to pump start-up, closed heating and cooling systems
should be cleaned, drained, and refilled with clean water. The
system fluid pH must be maintained between 7 and 9.
START-UP
Do not start pump until the system has been filled and vented.
Air should be vented fr om the system by means of an air vent
located at a high point in the system. The system must be
completely vented prior to pump operation. Do not run NRF/
NBF/SSF circulators dry. Pump operation without water cir cu-
lation could result in pump and motor damage.
