1. ACCESORIES

EN
The product comes with the following components. Please check through the components supplied and
ensure that all parts are present:
• Product with sheathed heating elements, digital thermostat and manual reset thermal cut-out.
• T/P valve 0.7 MPa 90ºC and electrolytic fittings.

2. PLACEMENT

To anchor the thermos to the wall, use plugs and screws suitable to support the weight of the full thermos.

3. LOCATION

The position of the cylinder should provide easy access for servicing the controls and replacing the sheathed
heating element should the need arise. Pipe runs should be made as short as
possible and lagged to prevent heat loss. To allow for servicing and repairs,
the product must be mounted at at least 500 mm above any surface or object,
so that access can be gained to electric connectors and the heating elements
may be removed.
Never install the horizontal thermos with the wall brackets on the floor or
horizontal plane.

4. HYDRAULIC INSTALLATION

NOTICE TO THE INSTALLER: the electrolyte fittings supplied with the water heater must be placed on the entry
and exit pipes to eliminate risk of galvanic pairs, using Teflon in the thread of the pipes.
• The water heater must be installed with the COMPULSORY safety group that is accompanied with the
same. No hydraulic accessory should be installed between the safety group and the cold water pipe
(stopcock, anti-return, etc.).
It is OBLIGATORY that the emptying outlet of the safety group be connected to a drainage pipeline, having
a diameter at least equal to that of the connection pipe of the water heater, with a continuous inclination
and open to the atmosphere keeping a minimum distance of 20 mm. During the heating period, the water
expands producing a drip (approximately 3% of its capacity for each heating cycle). Do not worry, it is a
normal phenomenon. The drainage pipe should be protected from frost.
To empty the water heater, it is necessary to act on the safety group by raising the lever. It must also act
periodically on said lever, to prevent it from being blocked. For example: depositions of Iodos, calcareous
deposits, etc.
• When the network pressure is greater than 5 bar, it is mandatory to install a pressure reducer in the pipe,
closest to the meter.
