The outlet water temperature can also vary if the maximum flow rate is exceeded (see Graph 1) or if the supply voltage changes.

Each heater module is protected by an electro-mechanical thermal cut-out. If the temperature of any of the heater modules gets too high, then the cut-out will trip and cut the power to that heater module. If the cut-out operates, it must be reset by a qualified service person. This cut -out will only trip in exceptional circumstances.

The AE115 unit is supplied from two independent voltage supplies and the AE125 unit from three independent voltage supplies. The unit may continue to work if one of these supplies is switched off or fails, but the temperature control will be poor. (In Canada the unit has just one voltage supply).

Depending on the region of the country, the temperature of the water supply can vary between 40°F in winter to 70°F in summer, with an average of 55°F.

two supplies). (In Canada an auxiliary terminal block is fitted during installation).
