1.

Intended use of the apparatus.

Distilled Water Generator is an apparatus which generates pure distilled water by distillation.
The definition of Distillation is "the process of heating a mixture and condensing the resulting
vapour to produce a more nearly pure substance". Distillation is generally recognized as an
effective broad spectrum water treatment method and removes many different kinds of
contaminants including biological contaminants such as bacteria and viruses.

Distilled water is also used when pure water is needed for such things as Photo Processing,
Pharmaceuticals, Perfumes, Facial Products, Cosmetic Products, Laboratories, Plant Water,
Rinse
Water, etc... And Distilled Water Generator generates distilled water.

2. Feature of product.

Refills evaporated water automatically, and maintains same water level in the boiler piping.
In case of water supply shortage, it automatically cuts power supply to stop operation.
Classic stills consist of a double-walled evaporator. Removable cover for easy cleaning.
External constant-level device to maintain proper water level.

Installation

3.1 Precautions for Installation

This equipment is designed and manufactured to operate properly only in use of rated
voltage.
Refer to specification section of this manual for rated voltage before installation. Use AC
power cable that comes with (or installed to) the product.

• Do not touch the Power Cord wet handed.

• Avoid locations where the equipment is exposed to direct sunshine.

• Do not place the equipment in a corrosive atmosphere.

• Do not use the equipment in a flammable atmosphere.

• Do not use the equipment where ventilation is poor.

• Do not locate the equipment in a dusty location.

• Do not use in an unstable place that are subject to vibrations.

• Avoid locations of high humidity.

• Avoid locations where the equipment is exposed to high temperature.

• Recommended temperature range : 20°c to 30°c

• Use the equipment indoors only.

• Secure adequate space around the power plug.

3.2 How to install

• Use with a minimum distance all around of 20cm from walls of other items.

• Locate in a flat place.

• Connect the power cord to an outlet with earthling point.

• In case of connecting to an outlet without earthling point, connect lead wire to the earth after

connecting grounding adapter.

3.3 How to ground Earth wire

• Earth wire must be grounded to prevent any electrical accidents.

• Improper or no grounding may cause electrical shock.

• Grounding terminal is included in the power plug.

• Therefore, there is no need to earth if plug in connected to a consent with grounding

terminal.

• Control the water pressure adequately so that water flows little from “7”.

• If water flow is big, then it might result in overflow of water leveller.

• Connect the power cord to the power outlet.

• Do not plug in the power plug when water is not running from “4” and it may lead to physical

heater damage.

• Confirm that ‘6’ lamp is turned on.

• After 10 minutes, water starts to boil and distilled water runs from ‘1’ Distilled Water Outlet.

When you use this device for the first time, the distilled water is not pure, so let it run for
1hour, then collect the water that comes after 1 hour

• If the temperature of installation location goes below freezing point of water, disconnect the
hose connected ‘2’ Cooling Water Inlet Port, discharge all the water inside the by opening
‘3’drain valve after operation is done.
