to ensure long life and corrosion resistance.
• Temperature and Pressure Relief Valve
AGA/ASME rated and factory installed.
• Electrical Connections
pre-wired, accessible control box with multiple knock-
outs on side in size selections to match the National
Electric Code. Sizes range from 1/2" to 2". A ground-
ing screw is provided for attaching an equipment
grounding conductor.
• Single Panel Control Box
with hinged door, provides immediate access to all
electrical components and elements.
• Terminal Block
all models are equipped with U.L. listed terminal
blocks for simplicity of installation. The terminal
block will accept either copper or aluminum field
connect wire.
• 120 Volt Control Circuit
all units are furnished with a fused 120 volt control
circuit. All controls (thermostats, high temperature
limit, etc.) are operated off of this basic 120 volt
control circuit. This circuit is created by an internal
multi-tap transformer of unique design that has four
(4) taps for the primary voltages, 208, 240, 277
and 480.
• Water Connections
hot outlet and cold inlet are 1-1/2" NPT dielectric
nipples which prevent excessive turbulence of heated
water and results in optimum tank draw.
