Safety Considerations

Sterling Royal Series temperature control units are designed to provide safe and reliable operation when installed and operated within design specifications, following national and local safety codes.

To avoid possible personnel injury or equipment damage when installing, operating, or maintaining this equipment, use good judgment and follow these safe practices:

Only PROPERLY TRAINED personnel familiar with the information within this manual should work on this equipment.

Follow all local SAFETY CODES.

Royal Series cabinets and piping are hot and are a BURN HAZARD.

Do not operate a Royal Series system without all outer panels installed. Pressurized hot water leaks can cause serious injury.

Wear SAFETY GLASSES and WORK GLOVES.

Use care when LOADING, UNLOADING, RIGGING, or

MOVING this equipment.

Operate this equipment within design specifications.

OPEN, TAG, and LOCK ALL DISCONNECTS before working on equipment. Sterling recommends following OSHA Lock-Out/Tag-Out Standard 29 CFR 1910.147.

Make sure the unit is properly GROUNDED before switching power on.

When welding or brazing in or around this equipment, be sure

VENTILATION is ADEQUATE. PROTECT adjacent materials from flame or sparks by shielding with sheet metal. An approved FIRE EXTINGUISHER should be close at hand and ready for use if needed.

Do not jump or bypass any electrical safety control.

Do not restore power until all tools, test equipment, etc. have been removed and the panels replaced.

General Information

 

 

1-1 Introduction

Sterling/Sterlco Royal Series water temperature control units are reliable, accurate, and easy-to-use process temperature control units. They are self-contained, portable, and shipped ready to use.

The Royal Series water temperature control unit is designed to circulate water through your process and to precisely, automatically, and reliably maintain it at a specified temperature. Standard unit operating range is from 0ºF (-17ºC) to 250°F (121°C), or up to 300°F (149°C) as an option. The unit is suited for use with city water, water from portable or central chillers or towers, or well water.

These units are designed for rapid recirculation of a relatively small amount of water to provide close and uniform temperature relation between To Process and From Process lines. This performance, of course, depends on the configuration of your process and any restrictions within the mold. The recirculation, combined with the large immersion heater and cooling capability, gives fast and accurate response to bring the water up to temperature or to changes in the settings when needed.

The 2010 Series water temperature control unit is a self-contained system consisting of a centrifugal pump, electric immersion heater, cool/vent solenoid valve, and electrical control, including a PID microprocessor controller and thermocouple. It is designed for use in process temperature control applications using water or a water/glycol mix. Any other use or fluid is prohibited.

Some standard safety devices include a mechanical overtemperature safety thermostat, a pressure relief valve, motor overload protection, a low pressure cutout switch, branch fusing, and non-fused lockable rotary disconnect.

A properly installed, operated, and maintained Royal Series system provides years of reliable operation. Please read and follow the instructions in this manual to get the most satisfaction from your Royal Series system.

Shipping Information

 

 

2-1 Unpacking and Inspection

You should inspect your Sterling/Sterlco Royal Series temperature control unit for possible shipping damage. If the container and packing materials are in re-usable condition, save them for reshipment if necessary.

Thoroughly check the equipment for any damage that might have occurred in transit, such as broken or loose wiring and components, loose hardware and mounting screws, etc. In case of breakage, damage, shortage, or incorrect shipment, refer to the following sections.

2-2 In the Event of Shipping Damages

Important!

According to the contract terms and conditions of the Carrier,

the responsibility of the Shipper ends at the time and place of shipment.

Notify the transportation company’s local agent if you discover damage.

Hold the damaged goods and packing material for the examining agent’s inspection. Do not return any goods to

Sterling before the transportation company inspection and authorization.

File a claim against the transportation company. Substantiate the claim by referring to the agent’s report. A certified copy of our invoice is available upon request. The original Bill of Lading is attached to our original invoice. If the shipment was prepaid, contact Sterling at (262) 641-8610 for a receipted transportation bill.

Advise Sterling regarding your request for assistance and to obtain an RGA (return goods authorization) number.

Page 12

Royal Series Water Temperature Control Units

2-3 If the Shipment is Not Complete

Check the packing list. The apparent shortage may be intentional.

Back-ordered items are noted on the packing list. You should have:

Sterling/Sterlco Royal Series water temperature control unit

Bill of lading

Packing list

Operating and Installation packet

Electrical schematic and panel layout drawings

Component instruction manuals

Re-inspect the container and packing material to see if you missed any smaller items during unpacking. Determine that the item was not inadvertently taken from the area before you checked in the shipment. Notify Sterling immediately of the shortage.

2-4 If the Shipment is Not Correct

If the shipment is not what you ordered, contact the parts and service department immediately at (262) 641-8610. Have the order number and item number available. Hold the items until you receive shipping instructions.

2-5 Returns

Important!

Do not return any damaged or incorrect items until you receive shipping instructions from Sterling.

Royal Series Water Temperature Control Units

2-6 Uncrating Your New Royal Series System

Royal Series water temperature control units are shipped fastened to a skid and covered with a cardboard box.

Carefully remove the staples on the bottom of the box, lift off the box, and remove the bolts holding the unit to the skid.

Caution!

Be careful when cutting straps.

Straps may spring back and cause injury!

From the side, slip two lifting straps between the skid and temperature control unit. Spread the straps from the center line so it is balanced.

Loop the straps over a fork truck fork. Lift slowly and only high enough to clear the skid. Use a pry bar if necessary to remove the skid from the unit.

Carefully slide the skid from beneath the unit and lower the unit. Lower slowly. The unit should land on its casters and can be rolled into position.

Retain the crating in case reshipment is necessary due to hidden shipping damage.
