The heater is supplied with separate connections for the cold/warm inlet and the hot water outlet. Water entering the cold water inlet is deflected by means of a baffle within the tank. A ¾-inch FNPT connection is provided for mounting a combination safety temperature and pressure relief valve. An overflow line should be utilized from the relief valve outlet to a floor drain.
TEMPERATURE HIGH LIMIT SWITCH A surface mounted high temperature cut-off switch with manual reset, factory set at 205° F is provided. In the event of an over-temperature condition, the thermostat will disengage the operating coils in the magnetic contactor(s). The high limit must be manually reset thereafter to restart the heater.
The following optional features may be included in your water heater. Reference included drawing specific to your heater for further details. Low Water Cut-Off Used as a safety device, the electronic low water cut-off is used to detect a low water situation and disengage the operating coils in the magnetic contactor(s). Once the condition is remedied, the low water cut-off switch is automatically reset.

Pressure Reducing Valve An optional pressure reducing valve with built-in bypass may be supplied. This valve is shipped separately for in-line installation. Stainless Steel Outer Jacket An optional stainless steel outer jacket may replace the standard galvaneel jacket. Stainless Steel Legs As an option, 6-inch adjustable stainless steel legs may be supplied.
THE RESULTANT FLOW OF WATER WILL NOT DAMAGE FURNISHINGS OR PROPERTY. WATER HEATER PLACEMENT 1. Place the heater on a solid foundation in a clean, dry location as near as possible to the dish washing machine. 2. The water heater should be protected from freezing and waterlines insulated to reduce energy and water waste.
Lever Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve 5. Install a relief valve overflow pipe to a nearby floor drain. CAUTION: No valve of any type should be installed between the relief valve and tank or in the drain line. FILLING THE HEATER 1.

MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION The water heater is automatic in its operation. It will maintain a full tank of water at the temperature setting of the thermostat. The water heater should not be turned on without first making sure that the tank is full of water and that all air has been released.
ANNUAL INSPECTION 1. Flush tank as follows a. Shut off power supply. b. Close valve on hot water outlet piping. c. Open valve on drain piping. d. Cold water inlet line pressure will be strong enough to flush sediment from the bottom of the tank out through the drain.
‘AMP’ figure. Have source electrical system checked by an electrician. Move thermostat dial through full range. A definite ‘click’ should be heard. If not, replace thermostat. Check to see if tank is full of water. If not, fill tank. If problem...
