  • Page 4: For Your Safety

    FOR YOUR SAFETY WARNING For your safety do not operate this appliance before reading this instruction booklet Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. For assistance or additional information consult the Rheem Service Department or accredited Service Agent. WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS? DO NOT try to light any gas appliance.
  • Page 5: About The Water Heater

    Modulating type suitable for indoor or outdoor installation. Raypak heaters utilise a finned copper tube heat exchanger resulting in a low water content and reduced ‘stand by’ heat losses. Therefore a circulator pump of sufficient capacity to match the water heater model must be installed in the system.
  • Page 6: Water Supplies

    The standard finned copper tube heat exchanger has proved to be very resilient and capable of operating for many trouble free years on most public water supplies. Should the installation be in an area where ‘corrosive’ or ‘hard’ water is present contact Raypak to ensure that the quality of the water is satisfactory.
  • Page 7: Installation

    INSTALLATION THIS WATER HEATER IS NOT SUITABLE FOR POOL HEATING. BEFORE COMMENCING THE INSTALLATION: 1. Read these instructions in full. 2. Check that the heater you have been supplied is suitable for the type of installation and the gas that is available. The gas supply pressure must be between the minimum and maximum as shown on the water heater rating plate.
  • Page 8: Water Heater Location

    INSTALLLATION IMPORTANT: When installing a new water heater to an existing system, it is a Raypak requirement that the system and its equipment be inspected, drained and flushed with clean fresh water, before the new water heater is connected. Failure to do this may cause blockages and/or water heater damage which is NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.

    INSTALLLATION The cold water supply pressure must be sufficient to provide adequate flow at the fixtures. EXPANSION CONTROL VALVE Local regulations may make it mandatory to install an expansion control valve (ECV) in the cold water line to the water heating system. In other areas, an ECV is not required unless the saturation index is greater than +0.4 (refer to 'Water Supplies' on page 6).

    INSTALLLATION ELECTRICAL SUPPLY The electrical installation must comply with AS/NZS 3000 and any local requirements. This water heater must be hard wired to a 240V AC 50 Hz M.E.N. (multiple earthed neutral) mains power supply with an all pole isolating switch installed adjacent to and accessible from the water heater (refer to AS 5601, 5.2.11).
  • Page 21 INSTALLLATION the conduit and the water heater cabinet to prevent overheating of the wiring. The power for the pump and the water heater must be supplied from the same circuit and isolating switch; alternatively the water heater power supply may be switched by the auxiliary contacts of the pump contactor (refer to diagrams on page 22).

Adjust balancing valve A to half open and balancing valve B to fully open. Start up the heater and adjust balancing valve A to obtain a heater inlet temperature of approximately 10°C greater than the system loop return temperature, (turning valve A in the open direction will increase the heater inlet temperature and closing valve A will lower the heater inlet temperature.
  • Page 28: Operation

    OPERATION FIRST FIRING OF WATER HEATER It is quite normal for the water heater to produce some smoke, fumes and possible condensation for the first thirty (30) minutes of firing from new. Avoid breathing fumes. Vacate and ventilate area. LIGHTING PROCEDURE CAUTION Do not use this heater if any part has been under water.

  • Page 33: Burner Gas Pressure Adjustment

    ADJUSTMENT BURNER GAS PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT On/Off Models The burner pressure is set by adjusting the Jeavons J48 appliance regulator. To adjust the burner pressure: 1. Fit manometer to main burner test point 2. Turn on electrical power to heater 3. Allow main burner to light 4.
  • Page 34: Temperature Rise

    ADJUSTMENT TEMPERATURE RISE The correct temperature rise across the water heater heat exchanger is the result of correct pump selection and speed, pipe sizing (refer to the section on 'Pump Selection' on page 13and good plumbing. The typical temperature rises for most applications will be between 10°C and 20°C. A temperature rise of less than 10°C is indicative of excessive flow rate that can lead to erosion of the tube bundle and/or headers.
  • Page 35: Air Pressure Switch

    ADJUSTMENT AIR PRESSURE SWITCH The air pressure switch is calibrated at the time of manufacture. The pressure switch contacts are adjusted to close when the pressure detected at the test point is 150Pa or greater. Depending on the installation it may be necessary to adjust the pressure switch setting. WARNING: Under no circumstances is the pressure switch to be adjusted to cause the contacts to close at a pressure less than 150Pa.
