VAL6 & HOTGUN heaters
Q1What is required to operate VAL6 and HOTGUN heaters?
A1Little electricity and fuel oil/ natural gas or propane gas.
Q2What is used as fuel oil?
A2Kerosene is best, but high quality of No.1 Diesel also can be used. Also natural and propane gas are available.No “Gasoline” used.
Q3Is the operation easy?
A3Yes, it is. Set “ON” the operating switch, and the heater will ignite within 10 seconds. Turn “OFF” the switch, and the flame will be extinguished.
Q4How many hours does VAL6 operate with full tank?

Q7Why are the infrared-rays warm?
A7The infrared-rays not only radiate on the surface but also penetrate into the inside. Like the sunlight, VAL6's radiant heat travels directly, unaffected by wind or rain, to the place you want. Also it doesn't automatically rise to the ceiling.
Q8What are the consumable parts of oil heaters?
A8Nozzle and fuel filter.
RKF Evaporative Coolers
Q1Why can RKF evaporative cooler produce cool air?
A1It is the natural way of cooling like a waterfall. When water contacts dry and hot air, it evaporates into the air. This is chemical change and it requires heat, thus water evaporation consumes the heat in air. That's why evaporative cooler can produces cool air with only water.
Q2How much is the power consumptions?
A2It's 230W for RKF405-E and 520W for RKF505-A.
Q3What are the consumable parts of RKF evaporative cooler?
A3Only cooling element.
Q4How many years can cooling element last?
A4It depends on usage environment but generally it's about 2 or 3 years.
Q5What is required as maintenance?
A5Drying cooling element is needed after each use. It's only pressing operation switch then cooler dry element automatically. Sometimes it is necessary to flush water tank, rinse cooling element or clean water spray bar.
Analyzer & Inspector
Q1What model suitable for inspecting quality of grain?
A1CTR- 500E applies to measuring the moisture of grain. ES-1000 applies to evaluating the appearance of grain. TM-3500 applies to evaluating the componential analysis.
Q2How long does it take inspection for test sample?
A2ES-1000 requires 28 seconds for one work operation. TM-3500 requires about 20 seconds for one work operation.
*The work operation time of CTR-500E is dependent on test sample quantity.
*The work operation time of CTR-500E is dependent on test sample quantity.
Q3Does it apply to inspecting for all of grain?
A3CTR-500E applies to paddy, brown and milled rice, wheat, barley. ES-1000 applies to brown rice only (Option: milled rice). TM-3500 applies to brown and milled rice.
