1.1 Overview
The Thrush Hot-Pak
of trouble-free service. This manual provides information to allow the installer/operator to
install, operate, service and maintain the Hot-Pak. In this manual the installer/operator
will find that multiple Hot-Pak models are covered. Visually these different models will
look very similar. The main difference between models is the height and diameter of the
unit. The model number designates the size of the unit (Figure 1-1 Overview). Although a
standard configuration is shown throughout this manual, optional equipment is available.

2.1 Safety Information continued
Before making any piping connections, assure that all piping is clean and free of
any foreign material such as debris or scale. Foreign material in the piping can
cause damage to the unit and/or affect the performance and operation. Manual
shutoff valves should be installed upstream/downstream from all connections to
act as an isolation device. These valves should be in the closed position and
remain so until the installation is complete.
Any temperature control valve installed on the Hot-Pak should be of the fail-closed
design.
When starting up, always introduce the cold fluid first. Introduce the hot side fluid
slowly. Bring the unit from ambient temperature up to operating temperature
gradually. Do not introduce hot or cold fluids suddenly, which could damage the
unit and void the warranty. A qualified electrician should make all electrical
connections.
To protect the tube bundle from damage, the unit must be filled with water before
allowing steam to enter.
When shutting down, always shut off the hot fluid first.

Component and Operational Information
3.1 Component Identification
The following paragraphs contain functional descriptions for each of the major
components of a standard Thrush
Hot-Pak. This manual provides information for multiple
Hot-Pak models. All the components listed have the same functional purpose throughout
each model. Although a standard
Hot-Pak will be used for illustrations, optional
equipment will also be shown for reference.

3.1.1 Safety Relief Valve
The safety relief valve is a valve that automatically relieves pressure on the inside of the
shell (also known as the water side). If the temperature or pressure inside the shell
exceeds a specified setting, the valve will open. Field installation is required for the
safety relief valve and also requires an adequate drain be piped to the discharge side of
the valve. (Figure 3-2)
Because this is an automatic valve, hot (potentially scalding) water could be
released without warning.
Figure 3-2 Safety Relief Valve
3.1.2 Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge is a visual representation of the temperature inside the shell
(or water side). It can be used as a reference when setting the temperature aquastat.
(Figure 3-3)
Figure 3-3 Temperature Gauge
Manual #9636-0550
3.1.3 Temperature Aquastat
The temperature aquastat limits the temperature of water inside the shell. The aquastat
must be set 15 degrees higher than the maximum operating temperature. If the water
temperature exceeds this limit, the aquastat sends a signal to the solenoid valve to dump
the overheated water. (Figure 3-4)
Figure 3-4 Temperature Aquastat
3.1.4 Solenoid Valve
The solenoid valve is an electrically actuated valve that dumps overheated water. The
solenoid valve must be piped to an adequate drain. If water inside the shell exceeds a
predetermined set point on the temperature aquastat, the aquastat sends a signal to this
valve telling it to open. The valve will then discharge the overheated water to a drain.
