All installations must allo w suf f icient space for servicing the electrical components, w ater pipe connections, piping and other auxiliary equipment, as well as the appliance. Multiple appliances ma y be installed in a modular w ater heater installation.
Before making an y connections to the cold w ater inlet or hot w ater outlet, insure that all piping is clean and free of material or scale. This can usually be accomplished b y “ blo wing out the pipe. ” Any foreign material or scale entering the w ater heater can adversel y af fect operation and performance.

The follo wing items are a vailab le as extra cost options. • Electronic lo w w ater cut-off pre vents energizing of the heater w hen it is not f illed with w ater . • Pilot lights – Monitor on-of f cycle of contactors. • Manual limiting switches with indicating lights to permit heater kW input to be manuall y limited as desired.
Each internal pow er circuit is fused for safety . Each po w er circuit to an immersion element is fused at a maximum of 48 amps. P o w er circuits ma y be fused at lo w er cur rent lev els as needed to balance cur rent on three phase units.
This w ater heater uses an immersion thermostat(s) to activ ate magnetic contactors allo wing cur rent to flo w to the immersion heating elements. The standard control system uses one immersion thermostat for each 54kW of electric heating po w er in a water heater .
The maxim um temperatur e setpoint that should be set f or the Immersion Thermostats or pr ogrammed into the Electr onic T emperatur e Contr ol Sequencer is 190 ° F ( 88 ° C) Al wa ys close the electrical control panel door after making a temperature adjustment.
The w ater heater uses an optional adjustable electronic temperature control to pro vide staged ON/OFF control of the electric heating elements. Operation is based on temperature input from an immersion temperature sensor . The sensor is a positi ve coef f icient platinum thermistor .
Once po w er is applied to the temperature controller the displa y will countdo wn from 210 until the displa y reads zero. All outputs are de-energized at this time. This countdo wn process will repeat each time main po w er is inter rupted. T o av oid vie wing this entire countdo wn, press the Select ke y .

The source of the problem must be found and cor rected to insure proper operation. The limit control is co vered with an insulation blank et which must be remo ved to push the red reset button.
This w ater heater may be equipped with an optional electronic lo w w ater cut-off installed at the factor y . This lo w water cut-of f device uses a w ater lev el sensing probe located abo ve the heating element installed in the highest point in the storage tank.
electrical input of the w ater heater in the summer months when ground w ater temperatures are w ar mer and full electrical input from the immersion heating elements is not required. The w ater heater may be restored to full input b y mo ving the s witches to the “ ON ” position.
The cold w ater supply m ust be left in the open position when the w ater heater is in use. An alarm bell with silencing switch is a vailab le as an option on this w ater heater . The alarm bell can be used to pro vide an audib le indication of a control sensed malfunction.
6. While the tank is f illing, open the electrical control panel and set the thermostat(s) to the desired w ater temperature. If equipped with multiple thermostats, all individual thermostats may be adjusted to the same temperature set point or they ma y be set a 2 ° F to 4 ° F (1 ˚ C to 2 ˚ C) apart to step the elements on in stages.
4. Close and lock the electrical control panel door . 5. T urn on the main electrical pow er to the w ater heater . 6. T emperature control and contactor operation should be checked b y allo wing the water heater to come up to temperature and shut of f automaticall y .

27 TROUBLE SHOOTING Checklist Before calling for service, check the following points to see if the cause of trouble can be identif ied and cor rected. Revie wing this checklist ma y eliminate the need of a ser vice call and quickl y restore hot water service.
CP-5M-5/02-Reprinted in U .S.A. Excessi ve w ater pressure is not the most common cause of relief v alve leakage. It is often caused b y a “ closed system. ” A check valve, back flo w pre venter or pressure reducing v alve, in the inlet system will not permit the expanded hot water volume to equalize pressure with the main.
