Appliance function

The fully electronically controlled ELECTROLUX IH instant water heater is a pressurised appliance for the supply of one or more tapping points and heats the water as the latter continuously flows through it. A flowrate sensor switches on the heating at a flowrate of around 3 l/min and off again at around 2,5 l/min. The microprocessor controlled electronic system automatically adapts the heating power with regard for the inlet temperature, the temperature set on the temperature selector knob, and the water flowrate. The user thus has hot water available in an energy-saving system giving the exact temperature required without any time limitation whatever.

The nominal operating pressure is 1 Mpa. If this value is exceeded, a pressure reducing valve should be provided in the household pipework. A safety valve is not necessary.

The bare wire resistance heating system has a high efficiency. Its low weight and extremely low water content also make it suitable for hard, lime-containing water qualities.

Safety temperature and pressure limiter

In the event of a fault, the inbuilt safety temperature limiter isolates the appliance from the mains supply on all contacts.

Before the appliance is switched back on, a trained engineer must ascertain and eliminate the cause of the fault (see page 17). Then carefully press in the contact rocker with a screwdriver until it audibly engages.

Important: Don't block up the contact rocker!

Pressurepoint for screwdriver

Important! The safety temperature and pressure limiter should never be adapted or modified in any way!
