Removing the Vapor Shield
The vapor shield is not shown in the graphic Exploded view of Booster Components.
Most maintenance procedures require removal of the vapor shield to access the underlying pump unit.
Tools required
Qty. | p/n | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
1 | 
|
| A 3/16” hex-drive wrench (mounted on the back of the front cover) |
-
Set the Control state to OFF on the SFC control module.
-
Wait for the chiller temperature to approach room temperature to prevent significant condensation on the chiller assembly and pump head.
-
Turn the power OFF on the SFC control module. Unplug the power cord.
-
Remove the front cover of the SFC control module unit by pulling gently at the upper left and right indents to the rear of the cover. The cover will release from its magnetic catch. Lift the cover upward to clear the two mounting pins at the base and set it aside.
NOTE
The 3/16” hex wrench used to remove the vapor shield and pump head is stored inside the removable front cover.
-
While holding the vapor shield with one hand, use the 3/16” hex wrench to loosen the four cap screws attaching each corner of the shield until they each disengage from the front panel. The screws are captured in the shield; do not try to remove them completely.
-
Remove the shield and store it in a safe location. Do not use a container for disassembled parts. This will scratch the plastic and impair visibility of the pump head during operation.
