Eclipse Construction Features
•
Composite tank and high density polyethylene dent
and scratch resistant jacket.
• No anode rod required.
• Models are in two sizes with capacity of 85 or 105
gallons in 42 total variations.
• Input options are: 12.4, 18, or 24 kW.
• Voltage options are 208, 240 or 480 VAC in either
single phase or 3-phase and 277 VAC in single
phase only.
• Element wattages are 3100, 4500 or 6000 in each of
the four voltages. The elements are low watt density
design (46, 67, 90 watts/sq. in.) with stainless
(Inconel) sheath.
• The four Inconel elements are spaced on the front
along a vertical line for easy access.
•
The power control circuits use 2 surface mounted
thermostats and operate in two stages so that a
lower control thermostat is for the lower two
elements and an upper control is for the upper two
elements. The lower element will provide recovery
for all needs and the upper two will kick in
additionally for larger demands.
• 170º F maximum delivered temperature.
• System Sentinel LED indicators are provided
for each element to show power on.
• A switch is provided in the control circuit for
installation dry fire protection. See label.
• A temperature and pressure relief valve is
installed on top of the unit.
• 3/4” full port, full flow brass drain valve.
• Standards approved to UL 1453 and UL/NSF 005.
