Important Safety Note
The programme-controlled blowdown system is exclu-
sively suited for GESTRA intermittent blowdown valves
types MPA . . . . All maintenance or repair work of the
equipment must only be carried out by GESTRA Tech-
nical Services.
Danger
During maintenance work at the valve or blowdown line
a blowdown pulse can unintentionally be released. This
presents the danger of severe personal injury. Be fore
carrying out any maintenance work, it is essential to cut
off power supply and isolate control- fluid line.
Purpose
Electronic unit for the generation of periodic pulses to
initiate a blowdown cycle via the GESTRA rapid-action
intermittent blowdown valves type MPA 26, MPA 27
or MPA 110.
The equipment meets the German regulations for use in
steam-boiler plants operating without constant supervi-
sion or with limited supervision (TRD 604 or TRD 602).
Function
The programme-controlled blowdown system (Fig. 2)
consists of an electronic cycling timer
B C
solenoid valve , a strainer , and a screwed redu-
D
cer .
The cycling timer type PRS 8 generates a control pulse
which operates the three-way solenoid valve. This in turn
actuates the rapid-action blowdown valve by means of
compressed air or pressurized water and closes it again
at the end of the pulse duration.

Control fluid
Compressed air or pressurized water, 4 to 8 barg
(58 to 116 psig) depending on the blowdown valve used
and the boiler pressure (see chart in data sheet MPA 26,

sion fitting) for com pressed air. Install TA 7 only where
the temperatures do not exceed 55 °C.
ControlFluid Connections
Effect connections to solenoid valve in accordance with
diagram (Fig. 3).
Wiring
Loosen screw

cable gland
Effect wiring to the terminal strip
using three-conductor cable. e.g. 3 x 1.5 mm
supply voltage. The supply voltage is indicated on the
name plate of the solenoid valve.
The position of the cable entry can be modified by max.
270°. Proceed as follows: Insert a screwdriver with a 3
mm blade into the opening

Manual operation
The three-way solenoid valve can be actuated manually
for test purposes of in the event of a voltage failure. The
push button provided on the three-way solenoid valve
allows a test of the blowdown valve as required by
certain regulations in force (e. g. TRD 604).
1. Push button on solenoid valve and release.
2. Push button on solenoid valve and turn through 180°
(continuous pulse).
Notice
An uncontrolled continuous pulse can cause a con-
siderable level decrease in the boiler, and the water level
limiter may switch off the heating.
