Siemens 8dn8 Installation Manual
Viktor flipped to the back of the manual. Appendix G: Thermal Equalization Timers. There was a formula. It factored in ambient temperature, barometric pressure, and the specific heat capacity of the aluminum flange alloy. At 8°C and 1013 hPa, the equalization time was exactly 47 minutes.
Viktor paused. Usually, you just eyeballed the dowels. "Resistance felt" was subjective. He shrugged and kept reading.
He blinked. Wait 47 minutes? Not "a few minutes." Not "allow the gasket to relax." Forty-seven.
