Electrical Schematic EIWH5 Tin Tout BV Bleeding air • Isolate the power supply from the heater. • Open the water flow through the heater (by opening a hot water tap) and wait for the air to be bled out (for at least 30 seconds), after which the water should flow out of the tap with a steady stream without evidence of escaping air.
The switch setting can be updated after adjusting the power supply. After powering on the EIWH5, the panel software version (PW...), the software version (MSP...), and the set rated power will be displayed on the screen.
EIWH5 Operation The heater switches on automatically straight after reaching the flow rate over 2,5 l/min. The temperature control system adjusts the power rate according to the water flow rate, required temperature and the temperature of water in the mains. The LCD backlight and icon signalises the heating operation.
