Electric Heat Exchanger / Safety Safety 1.1 Risks When Handling Electric Heat Exchanger The electric heat exchanger has been built on the basis of state-of-the-art technology and the approved safety-technical guidelines. Nevertheless, risks might occur during use such as – violation of operator or –...
The electric heat exchanger is exclusively designed for heating bathwater with activated recirculating or filter pump. Any other mode of application is not regarded as intended use. The manufacturer Behncke ® GmbH is not liable for any resulting damage. Other uses are only possible upon agreement with and approval by the manufacturer.
Electric Heat Exchanger / Safety 1.4 Sources of Danger TAKE CARE The electric heat exchanger can be damaged. If the maximum operational pressure of 300 kPa (3.0 bar) is exceeded, the electric heat exchanger might develop leaks. TAKE CARE There is a risk of burns. The connections and the electric heat exchanger might reach temperatures of up to 100°...
– with a contactor of up to 12 kW. If no contactor has been installed by the factory, an external protection for switching the heating element is necessary (e. g. Behncke control for EWT 80-xx). Switchbox with contactor: 3–12 kW Article No.

When installed either 0,5 m above or below the water-level the manometric safety switch (low-water safety device) loses its effectiveness. In this event, instead of a manometric switch, it is absolutely necessary to fit a Behncke ® flow switch (see EWT 80-41/-71).
Electric Heat Exchanger / Set-up/Installation 3.5.3 Connecting the Electric Heat Exchanger to the Water Cycle of a Filter System Install the electric heat exchanger in the pressure line (to the basin) after pump and filter. The EWT 80-40/-41 is integrated into the water cycle via interior threads or tube connections with tube clips. The EWT 80-70/-71 is integrated into the water cycle with PVC glued/screwed connections.
– with a contactor up to 12 kW. If no contactor has been installed by the factory, an external protection for switching the heating element is necessary (e. g. Behncke control for EWT 80-xx). IMPORTANT It should be ensured that the electric heat exchanger can only be switched on if the water throughput is ensured.
Electric Heat Exchanger / Functional Course Functional Course In the electric heat exchanger, heat is transferred to the bathwater through the heatingelement. The thermostat regulates the water temperature in accordance with the adjusted value, range from 0 to 40°C. EWT 80-40/-70: If the required operating overpressure falls to below 6 kPa (0.06 bar) due to insufficient water throughput, the safety pressure limiter switches off the electric heat exchanger.
Electric Heat Exchanger / Troubleshooting 6.1 Hibernation of the EWT in Frost-proof Rooms TAKE CARE Intervention in technical systems by unqualified persons might lead to injury or damage. For hibernation in frost-proof rooms, the electric heat exchanger must be completely filled with water or be completely drained. 6.2 Hibernation of the EWT in Non Frost-proof Rooms TAKE CARE Expert hibernation without frost damage is possible if the following steps are...
