  • Page 6 ABOUT YOUR WATER HEATER TO TURN ON THE WATER HEATER WARNING! If you smell gas do not attempt to turn on the water heater. Fill the system with water (refer to “To Fill the Water Heater” on page 28) Open the gas isolation valve fully at the inlet to the water heater. Plug in the power supply cord at the power outlet.
  • Page 7: How Your Water Heater Works

    HOW YOUR WATER HEATER WORKS The water heater consists of a gas burner, a combustion chamber lined with refractory tiles and a heat-exchanger made of finned copper tubes. Hot flue gases from the burner pass between the fins on the heat exchanger tubes and heat is transferred first to the fins and then by conduction into the water.

  • Page 14 INSTALLATION COLD WATER SUPPLY Water Heating Applications Where the cold water supply pressure exceeds that shown in the table below, an approved pressure limiting valve is required and should be fitted as shown in the installation diagram (refer to diagram on page 17). Mechanical/Process Heating Applications A cold water feed regulator (Pressure Reducing Valve) should be installed on the cold water make up line.
  • Page 15 INSTALLATION HOT WATER DELIVERY (WATER HEATING APPLICATIONS) This water heater can deliver water at temperatures which can cause scalding. It is necessary and we recommend that a temperature limiting device be fitted between the water heating system and the hot water outlets in any ablution and public areas such as bathrooms, ensuites or public amenities, to reduce the risk of scalding.

    CONNECTIONS – PLUMBING IMPORTANT: When installing a new water heater to an old or existing system, it is a requirement that the system and its equipment be thoroughly inspected and if necessary, drained and flushed with clean fresh water, before the new water heater is connected.
  • Page 18 CONNECTIONS – PLUMBING The table below provides indicative pipe and pump sizes for typical installations Minimum Manifold Header Model Pump Branch Size Size Required (mm) Speed inches Series Unit Units Units Units 20-60B 20-60B 1¼ 32-80B 1¼ 32-80B 1¼ PUMP SELECTION In order to obtain the best possible water flow in the system a correctly sized pump must be installed.
  • Page 19 CONNECTIONS – PLUMBING In locations where water pipes are prone to freezing, the drain line must be insulated and not exceed 300 mm in length. In this instance, the drain line is to discharge into a tundish through an air gap of between 75 mm and 150 mm.
  • Page 20: Connections - Electrical

    CONNECTIONS – ELECTRICAL All electrical work and permanent wiring must be carried out by a qualified person and in accordance with the Wiring Rules AS/NZS 3000 and local authority requirements. The water heater is supplied with a 1.8 metre lead and plug and requires a 240 V 50 Hz general purpose outlet (GPO) to be located within 1.0 metre of the installation.
  • Page 21 CONNECTIONS – ELECTRICAL BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (BMS) For applications requiring connection to a building management system, an optional BMS kit, part number 56076884, suitable for modulating models ONLY must be fitted to the water heater to provide „run‟ and „fail‟ status. On/Off models cannot be connected to a building management system.
