Activating The System; Maintenance - ScaleBlaster SB-75 Installation & Operation Manual

1.) Follow the same instructions in steps 1-6 for PVC, CPVC and PEX pipe. Use Chart B for Copper
2.) Instead of a single coil wrapping around the pipe, a second one is added for copper pipe.
3.) YOU MUST KEEP THE SECOND WRAPPING IN THE SAME DIRECTION AS THE FIRST! Wrap
right over the top of the first layer continuing in the same wrapping direction as the first layer –
clockwise or counterclockwise. This second layer must also be tight and touching the prior wrap.

ACTIVATING THE SYSTEM

1.) Once the power unit has been installed and the pipe has been wrapped, insert the connector end of the
AC power adaptor into the power unit. (See Illustration A on page 5)
2.) Plug in the transformer end of the cord into a 110-volt electrical outlet.
3.) Operation of the ScaleBlaster SB-75 system can be confirmed by observing the illumination of the
LED indicator located on the face of the power unit. Power on - green light on far right side will stay
lit (Figure E). When pipe is wrapped and unit is turned on the far right light will stay lit and the other
lights will oscillate back and forth (Figure F).
