SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS General • This tank can be used by children eight years old and older as well as by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or who lack experience and knowledge if they are super- vised or if they have been trained with regard to the safe use of the tank and understand the resul- ting risks.
FUNCTION The water stored in the enamelled interior tank is heated by an electrical heater insert. A user-adjustable knob is available to preset the desired temperature. At the times determined by the responsible power supply company, the temperature controller automatically switches on the heating. Once the desired temperature in the storage tank is reached, the temperature controller switches the heater off again.
STANDBY ENERGY CONSUMPTION If no water is used for a long time after the end of the water heater’s heating interval, the water in the tank will cool down slowly but continuously due to losses at the unit’s surface. The speed of this cooling process depends on the type of device, its size, the thickness and the quality of the tank insulation.
THERMOMETER Remote reading thermometer There is a remote thermometer built into the front panel of the device typ EKR for monitoring the stored water tempe- rature. The display value depends upon the temperature regulator setting. Only with the adjustment knob at „Pos.“ and after completion of the warm up process is the maximum display value reached.
MOUNTING AND SAFETY INFORMATION a) Important mounting information! Do not bend hang-up hook safety element due to possible fracture. Risk of injury by falling device in the case of non-ob- servance! b) A wall rail for hanging up the upper fastening hook is enclosed with every de- vice, which is mounted to the wall using two screws and takes over the suppor- ting function.

SERVICE WATER CONNECTION (PRESSURE-PROOF) Any warranty for our water heaters shall be rejected in case of use of unsuitable or inoperative storage connector fittings as well as an exceedance of the specified operating pressure. All storage tanks and boilers with “Max. operating pressure 6 bar” or “Max. operating pressure 10 bar” on their power rating plate are pressure-resistant storage tanks.
Maintenance and repairs: If no water exits during heating of the water heater or in the event of a permanent leak of the safety valve, an attempt must be made to loosen the valve by repeated operation of the venting facility or to rinse out any possible foreign object (e.g.
CENTRAL HEATING CONNECTION (ONLY EKR) The heat exchanger is suitable for connection to a water heater at a pressure of up to 6 bar. A forced circulation with pump is required. If the storage tank is connected to alternating current, the pump can be controlled via the free charge pump contact.
Reconnection possibilities For storage tanks with choice of heating time, the heating elements must be reconnected according to the wiring diagram glued inside the unit. The factory connection corresponds to a heating time of 6 hours in ~ 230 V supply voltage. The three-phase current circuits 3 ~ 400 V, respectively 3 N ~ 400 V, available as an option for 100 litres and above, must also be reconnected according to the following table.
COMMISSIONING Before the device is switched on electrically, the storage tank must be filled with water. The expansion water produced in the interior tank during heating must drip from the safety valve (pressure resistant connection), respectively from the overflow mixer tap (pressureless connection). Caution: First-time heating must be performed and supervised by a licensed professional.
b) If the water is very hard, a professional must remove the limescale forming inside the interior tank as well as the freely deposited limescale after one to two years of operation. For cleaning, it is necessary to open the flange – remove heating flange, clean storage tank, always use a new sealing when refitting the heating flange.
WARRANTY, GUARANTEE AND PRODUCT LIABILITY Warranty is made according to the legal provisions of the Republic of Austria and the EU. The prerequisite for honoring of warranty terms on the part of the manufacturer (hereinafter referred to as Manu- facturer) is presentation of a paid invoice for the purchase of the appliance in question, whereby the identity of the appliance including model and fabrication number must be indicated on the invoice and presented by the claim applicant.
