5.1.6 Emptying the ST baths
The ST12, ST18, ST26 & ST38 baths should be emptied to a safe level prior to moving.
A drain tap is included on these baths to allow convenient emptying.
Allow the liquid temperature to fall to a safe level before emptying or moving.
CAUTION: if the bath is drained at temperatures above 50°C then the drain mechanism
will be damaged and will need to be replaced. Take reasonable precautions to prevent
accidental spillage.
Empty the bath by pushing the supplied drain insert into the drain tap as shown below.
Note that the bath liquid will begin to empty as soon as the drain insert is fully engaged.
A length of hose can be added to the barbed end of the drain insert if required.
5.1.7 Setting up and switching on
Attach the TX150/TXF200 securely to the required bath or vessel. Add the appropriate
working liquid to the bath to at least the minimum recommended fill level such that the
float level switch is fully raised.
Connect the TX150/TXF200 to a grounded (earthed) electrical power supply with voltage
and frequency within the range specified on the serial number plate.
EN
Switch on the TX150/TXF200 using the power switch on the rear of the unit. The motor
will start immediately and the buzzer will sound while the unit starts up. During start up
the display will show the software version before displaying the home screen. The
TX150/TXF200 is ready to use.
To disconnect the equipment from the mains supply, remove the mains plug from the
mains supply outlet.
5.1.8 Power loss
If power is lost, either due to the unit being switched off or due to a power failure, then
when the power is restored the unit will return to the home screen (see 5.2.7) with the
last valid set temperature and pump speed. Note that, if a program was running (see
5.2.13), the set temperature will be the one set before the program started. If a preset
was in use (see 5.2.11) then the set temperature and pump speed will be correct but the
preset number will not be displayed. The countdown timer (see 5.2.12) will be stopped.
