RELIEF DEVICES

An unplugged 3/4” NPT relief valve opening is provided for installing temperature and pressure relief valve.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF EXCESSIVE PRESSURES AND TEMPERATURE IN THIS WATER HEATER INSTALL TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT REQUIRED BY LOCAL CODES but not less than a combination temperature and pressure relief valve certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory that maintains periodic inspection of production of listed equipment or materials, as meeting the requirements for relief valve devices for hot water supply systems, ANSI Z21.22 (latest version).

This valve must be marked with a maximum set pressure not to exceed the marked maximum working pressure of the water heater. INSTALL THE VALVE INTO THE OPENING PROVIDED AND MARKED FOR THIS PURPOSE IN THE WATER HEATER, AND ORIENT IT OR PROVIDE TUBING SO THAT ANY DISCHARGE FROM THE VALVE WILL EXIT ONLY WITHIN 6 INCHES (152.4 mm) ABOVE, OR AT ANY DISTANCE BELOW THE STRUCTURAL FLOOR AND CANNOT CONTACT ANY LIVE ELECTRICAL PART. THIS DISCHARGE OPENING MUST NOT BE BLOCKED OR REDUCED IN SIZE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

The pressure setting of the relief valve should not exceed the pressure capacity of any component in the system. The

temperature setting of the relief valve should not exceed 210°F (98.9°C).

TEMPERATURE LIMITING CONTROL

The heater control circuit contains a high temperature cutoff switch which operates if excessive water temperatures are reached. The high temperature cutoff contacts open at 190°F (87.7°C) and must be manually reset (after a 30°F (16.6°C) drop in water temperature). Disconnect the power before resetting button.

HYDROGEN GAS (FLAMMABLE)

CAUTION

HYDROGEN GAS CAN BE PRODUCED IN A HOT WATER SYSTEM SERVED BY THIS HEATERTHAT HAS NOT BEEN USED FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME (GENERALLY TWO WEEKS OR MORE). HYDROGEN GAS IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. To reduce the risk of injury under these conditions, it is recommended that the hot water faucet be opened for several minutes at the kitchen sink before using any electrical appliance connected to the hot water system. If hydrogen is present, there will probably be an unusual sound such as air escaping through the pipe as the water begins to flow. THERE SHOULD BE NO SMOKING OR OPEN FLAME NEAR THE FAUCETAT THE TIME IT IS OPEN.

SSE-120, SSE-5 specifications

State Industries has long been a trusted name in the manufacturing of water heating solutions, and their SSE series exemplifies this commitment to quality and innovation. The SSE-120 and SSE-5 models are two standout products in their lineup, catering to diverse needs in both residential and commercial applications.

The SSE-120 is a remarkable electric water heater designed with efficiency and performance in mind. It boasts a substantial 120-gallon capacity, making it ideal for larger households or small businesses with significant hot water demands. This model features a robust stainless steel tank, which not only enhances its durability but also provides excellent insulation to minimize heat loss. A key technology incorporated in the SSE-120 is its advanced dual heating element system, which ensures rapid water heating and consistent temperature maintenance, catering to high volume usage without compromising performance.

On the other hand, the SSE-5 is tailored for locations where space is a premium but hot water needs are still considerable. This model has a 5-gallon capacity and is perfect for point-of-use applications, such as supplying sinks, showers, or small appliances. The SSE-5 is designed with a tank-style configuration that guarantees a steady supply of hot water whenever needed. Its compact structure makes it easy to install in various settings, including under sinks or in cramped utility rooms.

Both models utilize a high-quality, energy-efficient design that complies with modern energy standards, helping users minimize utility bills while reducing their carbon footprint. The tanks in the SSE series are insulated with high-density foam, which not only helps in energy conservation but also ensures that users receive hot water quickly and efficiently.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the SSE series is their user-friendly controls. With adjustable temperature settings, both the SSE-120 and SSE-5 allow users to customize water temperatures according to specific needs, enhancing user experience and convenience.

In conclusion, State Industries' SSE-120 and SSE-5 water heaters combine advanced technology, superior construction, and energy efficiency, making them excellent choices for anyone in need of reliable hot water solutions. Whether for home or business, these models are built to meet the diverse demands of users in today’s water heating market.
