CLAGE M3..7-O E-Mini Instant Water Heater Instruction Manual

CLAGE M3..7-O E-Mini Instant Water Heater

Description of appliance

This instantaneous water heater is intended to provide the economical heating of water sufficient for a single outlet, i.e. handwash basin, and must be connected to a special open-outlet tap to avoid any overpressure. Appliances with a higher power rating can also be used to supply a kitchen sink. When the hot water tap is opened, the instantaneous water heater switches itself on automatically and heats the water as it passes through the appliance. It is only then that the appliance uses electricity. The temperature increase depends on the flow rate.

Technical specifications

The specific resistance can be asked for at your water distribution company. 2) Temperature increase from e. g. 15 °C to 40 °C.
