LK Electric Boiler - 4,5
Design
LK Electric Boiler 4,5 kW is a wall-mounted elec-
tric boiler, intended primarily for low-temperature
heating systems, e.g. under floor heating.
LK Electric Boiler 4,5 kW is delivered as a complete
unit. The boiler is ready for use once the water and
electricity are connected.
The boiler includes:
• Thermostat
• Overheating (maximum safe temperature)
protection
• Indication power on and triggered overhea-
ting (maximum safe temperature) protection
• Control switch
• Circulation pump, Grundfos UPM3 Auto L
15-50
• Expansion vessel
• Pressure gauge
• Thermometer
• Safety valve, 2,5 bar
• Automatic air bleeding valve
• Bypass valve
The electric boiler is not fitted with a water heater,
this is installed separately.
Function/Requirements
The boiler output meets the heat requirements
for up to 90 m² of living space, depending on the
insulation and ventilation. Depending on the con-
nection the boiler can supply 1,5, 2,25, 3 or 4,5 kW.
The boiler is controlled by an in-built thermostat.
If necessary, the boiler can also be controlled by an
external thermostat, for more information please
refer to the heading "External switching/room
thermostat".
Assembly
The boiler is mounted to the wall, or in a cabinet.
The boiler dimensions 420 x 700 x 200 mm (W x H
x D) mean that it can be installed in most kitchen
cabinets.

Pipe installation
Installation should be carried out according to the
applicable regulations and standards.
The boiler should be assembled indoors, moun-
ted to a wall or similar with the pipe connections
underneath.
The ambient temperature must not exceed 30°C.
The gap between the underside of the boiler and
the surface beneath it must be at least 300 mm to
enable electric cartridges to be replaced, if neces-
sary.
Hard, calciferous water is not suitable for use with
this heating system. To avoid corrosion damage
the pH value should not be too low.
The blow-off pipe from the electric boiler safety
valve flows into a drip tray in the boiler cabinet.
The installation inspection should be carried out
according to the applicable regulations on a unit
with a sealed expansion vessel, before the unit is
operated. The inspection should be conducted by a
suitably qualified person. The replacement of parts
and the expansion vessel must not occur without
a repeat inspection of the installation.
A counter torque wrench should be used during
connection to avoid damaging the internal piping.
