Correct use

The calf milk heater EasyHeat 23A / 30A is intended for warming milk and feed prepared using water.
The calf milk heater must not be used for other purposes, in particular, to prevent the freezing of water in feeding troughs and to warm up corrosive liquids.
In the event of incorrect use or modifications to the device, the manufacturer’s warranty and liabilities shall be deemed invalid.
The function of the calf milk warmer EasyHeat 23A / 30A has been optimized for use in cylindrical containers with an average diameter of max. 22 cm and for volumes of liquid of up to 10 liters.
In the event of any deviating conditions, a longer heat-up time may be required and there may be temperature deviations. The EasyHeat 23A / 30A device cannot be used as a temperature measurement device.

Safety instructions

CAUTION!

Hot surfaces and defective connection cables. Risk of burns, electrical shock, fires, and short circuits.
Do not place the device on objects or surfaces that are sensitive to heat.
The surface of the heater will still be hot when the device is switched off!
Do not touch the heater or place it on heat-sensitive surfaces.
Ensure that the container for the liquid to be heated is made from a heat-resistant material.
Only operate the device in the liquids it is intended for.
Do not allow electrical supply cables to come into contact with hot surfaces, heat, oil, or sharp edges.
Do not pull on the electrical supply cable to unplug or transport the device.
Hang up the electrical supply cable on the integrated cable holder (5) when the device is not in use.
Do not exceed the maximum immersion depth! (“max” position,
Never go above the minimum immersion depth! (“min” position
Risk of physical injury and material damage if used incorrectly!
Ensure that the device is only used by people who have the professional skills required to do so.
Ensure that the voltage specified on the type plate matches the voltage of your power source.
The device may only be connected to mains sockets which are isolated separately via a 30 mA circuit breaker (FI).
Do not use any multiple sockets. This is a very powerful high-performance device.
Before each use, check that the device and the power cable in particular are in good condition.
Do not operate the device if a component is defective.
Repairs may only be performed by a qualified electrician or the manufacturer.
Never operate the device without supervision.
Always keep the device in a safe, dry place out of the reach of children.
Never remove the device type plate and replace it where necessary.
National and international safety, health, and occupational safety regulations must be observed and complied with.
The handle section and supply cable should not come into contact with the liquid being heated.
When the device is switched on, the liquid to be heated may not be touched.
Disconnect the device from the power supply before removing it from the liquid being heated.
This device can be used by children eight years (8) and older and by individuals with impaired physical, sensory, or mental abilities or those with insufficient experience and/or knowledge to do so if they are being supervised or have been trained on the safe use of the device and understand the underlying hazards. Children may not play with the device. Cleaning and user maintenance may not be performed by children without supervision.
Do not operate the device near explosive substances or atmospheres at risk of explosion
Regularly check the device for leaks (seals, cable conduits, and screw attachments). Neglecting this check can result in significant danger.
The device must not be operated via an external timer or a separate remote action system.

Setup of the device

The device comprises the following components:

Control unit
Connection cable
Immersion pipe
Heater with integrated temperature probe
Cable holder
Control dial
Control light

Operation

Before using it for the first time

Before first use, thoroughly clean the surface of the heater (4) with lukewarm water. Inspect the device for visible defects.
In particular, you should check the power cable (2), the housing cover bolts as well as the connection of the immersion tube (3) to the heater (4).

Before switch-on

Before connecting the plug to the socket, place the device in the liquid to be warmed.
Note the maximum and minimum immersion depth of the device.
This is marked on the immersion tube (3).
Ensure that the bucket or the container with the liquid to be heated stands securely on level and stable ground, to prevent the device from falling over.

Heating the liquid

Turn the control dial (6) to the desired setting.
- When heating approx. 10 liters of liquid in cylindrical containers with an average diameter of approx. 22 cm (e.g. Calf Feeding Bucket), the following temperatures are reached:
- 2 = approx. 20 °C
- 4 = approx. 40 °C
- 6 = approx. 55 °C
- 8 = approx. 65 °C
- 10 = approx. 80 °C
Connect the power cable (2) to the socket. The device begins to heat.
- The red check light (9) indicates whether the heating element is heating.
- Check the light on the heating element heats.
- Check the light off: the heating element does not heat.
- The heater switches off and the control light goes out upon reaching the target temperature.
- Note:
- The heating duration depends upon several factors such as the initial temperature of the liquid, the set target temperature, the ambient temperature, the amount of liquid, and the shape and insulation of the container.
- To bring larger amounts of liquid to a uniform temperature, the liquid must be circulated manually if necessary.
- The red check light (7) indicates whether the heating element is heating.
- If the FastHeat device continues to be left in the container, the liquid will be re-heated again when the temperature drops to ensure that the pre-set target temperature is maintained (heat retention mode).

Switching the device off

To switch off the device, turn the control dial (6) to the “0” setting and then pull the connection cable out of the socket.

CAUTION!

Risk of physical injury and material damage if used incorrectly!
The surface of the heater will still be hot when the device is switched off!
Do not touch the heater or place it on heat-sensitive surfaces.
Tip: The device should be placed in cold or warm water immediately after use.
This facilitates cleaning of the heater and the heater cools down evenly.

Cleaning

CAUTION!

Risk of physical injury and material damage if used incorrectly!
Disconnect the power cord and let the heater cool down before you begin cleaning.
The device must be cleaned after each use.
The device should be placed in cold or warm water immediately after use. This facilitates cleaning of the heater.
The heater can be cleaned using a soft sponge cloth (do not use scrubbing brushes, wire brushes, wire wool, or other abrasive cleaning tools) and lukewarm, soapy water.
To clean the handle and the immersion pipe, use a soft, damp cloth that must be completely free of solvents (acetone, petrol, alcohol, or similar).

Maintenance and repair

The device does not require maintenance but should be thoroughly cleaned at regular intervals. In the event of a fault, the device must be taken out of use immediately.
If a repair is required, please contact a qualified electrician or send the device for repair to the manufacturer.
A faulty connecting cable should also only be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified electrician. Only use original spare parts.
