WATER CONTROLLER INSTALLATION
WATER CONTROLLERS
Water Controllers are available as an optional extra. Universal and Deluxe Controller can be used
together and will function as described in the Operation Section of this manual. Please refer to page 1
to confirm the maximum number and combination of controllers that can be fitted.
Other manufacturers water controllers are NOT compatible with Rinnai water
heaters. These water controllers must not be used with any Solar Boost water
NOTE
heater.
Rinnai water controllers brought in from other countries are not compatible with
Rinnai appliances sold in New Zealand.
POSITIONING OF WATER CONTROLLERS
Water controllers must be installed in shaded and clean locations. They should be fitted out of reach
of children (suggested height from floor to be at least 1500 mm). BC-100V water controllers are water
resistant, however, durability is improved when positioned outside the shower recess. All deluxe water
controllers must be installed at least 400 mm above the highest part of a sink, basin or bath.
• Do not install water controllers near a heat source, such as a cook top, stove
or oven. Heat, steam, smoke and hot oil may cause damage.
NOTE
• Do not install water controllers in direct sunlight.
• The MC-100V water contoller MUST NOT be installed in a bathroom.
• Do not install water controllers outdoors unless protection from dust ingress
and sunlight are provided.
• Do not install water controllers against a metal wall unless the wall is earthed
in accordance with AS/NZS3000.
• Water controllers MUST NOT be installed where chemicals such as benzine,
alcohol, turpentine or other similar chemicals are in use.
POSITIONING CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE MC-100V WATER CONTROLLER.
The MC-100V uses a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for the digital
monitor. Light reflections can make the LCD difficult to see at
direct eye level.
For best results when Installing the MC-100V mount the water
controller lower than your eye-level to avoid these light
reflections.
WATER CONTROLLER CABLES
Water controllers operate at extra low voltage (12 Volts DC) which is supplied from the water heater.
Controllers come supplied with 15 m of electrical cable. The appliance end of the controller cables are
fitted with spade terminals. Extension cabling is available from Rinnai.
Alternatively two core sheathed (double insulated) flex with minimum cross-
sectional area of 0.5 mm² may be used. Maximum individual cable runs should
NOTE
not exceed 50 m.
