Automatic water temperature control:
When you open the hot water tap on the mixer tap at the water heater outlet, cold water starts flowing in. The water in the tank mixes and its temperature decreases. The thermostat sensor reacts to the falling water temperature and the heating element (heating element) switches on automatically and heats the water up to the set temperature. When the temperature reaches the set point, the heating element is automatically switched off.

Levels of water heater protection:

• protection against overheating;
• protection against excessive hydraulic pressure.
• RCD (Ground Fault Interrupter).

The steel inner tanks with a special protective coating are made using the advanced electrostatic dry enameling method. Enamel properties:

• increased adhesive ability and high ductility (hardened at 850°C);
• expands or contracts with temperature changes in the same proportion as the walls of the inner tank, without creating microcracks that could lead to corrosion.

As additional protection against corrosion of the internal tank, the water heater is equipped with a magnesium anode and electronic titanium anode.

Water heater installation

Make sure that the electric water heater is installed using the original ports provided by the manufacturer, which can support the weight of the water heater filled with water. Do not mount the water heater on the bracket until you make sure that the attachment is securely fastened. Otherwise, the electric water heater could fail The following table describes the labels in this manual and the corresponding labels in this manual. When selecting locations for mounting bolt holes, make sure that on both sides of the bathroom walls or other rooms up to the water heater body, there is a clearance of at least 0.2 m and at least 0.5 m on the pipe connection side to facilitate access for maintenance when necessary.

If the water heater is supplied directly from wells, wells, or water towers, o coarse filter for the cold water entering the water heater must be used to operate the water heater. The coarse filter can be purchased from specialty stores. If the coarse filter is not installed, the product warranty is not valid. The electric water heater must be installed on o solid vertical surface (wall). The installation of SI EEC series water heaters is greatly facilitated by the possibility of installing them both vertically and horizontally anywhere in your home, in o heated (!) room. It is advisable to install the heater as close as possible to where the hot water is used, because the shorter the length of the pipes, the less heat is lost. As shown in Fig. If the heater is installed horizontally, the supply pipes should be on the right- hand side. When installing the heater close to the wall, leave the recommended clearance for maintenance. Do not install the heater on o horizontal surface and up against the floor. After selecting the mounting location, locate the two fastening bolts with hooks (depending on the specifications of the selected product). Make two holes in the wall to the required depth corresponding to the size of the mounting bolts, insert the screws, rotate the hook upwards, tighten the nuts firmly, and then install the electric water heater on it (see Fig. Li). If the bathroom is too small to accommodate the water heater, it can be installed in any other room, protected from direct sunlight and rain.

Connecting to the water supply

To connect the water heater to the water mains use pipes with o diameter of G1/2.

Warning!
It is not recommended to use any additional materials for the installation of the flexible hose and the safety valve that is not included in the water heater. The coupling nut of the flexible hose has a rubber gasket that ensures a tight connection between the hose and the safety valve. When tightening, avoid sudden jerking forces and limit the tightening torque to 25-30 N*m.

1. Install complete rubber gaskets on the ends of the threaded connections to prevent leaks when connecting the piping.
2. If you wont to implement o water supply system for several water points, use the connection method (see Fig. 5).

7. Valves

Warning!
If the appliance is installed horizontally, the water supply pipes must be on the left, placement of the supply pipes on the right is not allowed!

Connecting to the power grid

All storage water heaters of the SI EEC series are designed to connect to an electrical network with a single-phase voltage of 230 V. Before connecting, make sure that the power supply at the place of connection complies with the specifications on the rating plate of the appliance. Observe the applicable electrical safety regulations when installing the heater. When installing the water heater in the bathroom or toilet, take into account the restrictions related to the existence of prohibited and protective volumes (spaces).

• Prohibited volume is the space limited by the tangential and vertical planes in relation to the outer edges of the bathtub, toilet, or shower unit and the plane above them, or above the floor if the plumbing is mounted on the floor, at a height of 2.25 m.
• A protective volume is a space whose enclosing horizontal planes coincide with the planes of the forbidden volume, and whose vertical planes are 1 meter from the corresponding planes of the forbidden volume.

Operation

Filling with water
In order to fill the tank completely with water, it is necessary:

• open the hot water tap on the faucet;
• open the water supply valve to the water heater;
• wait for the water to come out of the faucet;
• close the hot water tap on the faucet and make sure there are no leaks.

If water flows from the hot water tap-the tank is full of water. Only then can the tank be connected to the power grid? In the case of uncertainty as to whether there is water in the water heater, do not connect it to the mains.

Connecting to the power grid

Watch out!
Connect to the mains only after filling with water (the opposite may cause the burning of the heating element and damage to the device).

Plug the water heater into an outlet, and then the display on the panel lights up the control. This indicates that the water heater is switched on and is supplied with power. Set the desired water heating level from low to high using the heating temperature control. The water heating temperature will be shown on the display as it heats up. The heating water is switched off automatically when the set temperature is reached and is switched on to reheat automatically. When the water temperature reaches the set temperature, the heating will stop.

Installation dimensions

Troubleshooting

Care and maintenance

Warning!

• Always disconnect the water heater from the power supply before servicing.
• The heater does not require additional maintenance. It is necessary to wipe the body from time to time with a soft cloth or a damp sponge in order not to damage the heater’s body. Do not use harsh chemicals.

Active anode
SI EEC series water heaters are equipped with an active (electronic) anode. The anode is a titanium rod and provides corrosion protection whenever the water heater is connected to the mains. If error E6 or E7 appears on the display, the electronic anode is not functioning and the water heater is not protected against corrosion. Contact a service center to solve the problem.

Heating element (TEH)
Tubular electric heater (TEH) is designed to heat water in the inner tank by converting electrical energy into heat. The formation of limescale (scale) on its surface can lead to poor heat transfer, overheating, and premature failure of the heating element. Regularly inspect and, if necessary, descale its surface with a descaling agent. The heating element warranty is void if one or more of the following conditions are met:

• the hardness of the water exceeds 25 ‘F,
• the thickness of the scale layer on the surface of the heating element is more than 5mm.

Watch out!
Scale build-up on the heating element and sludge in the internal tank can lead to water heater failure and is grounds for refusal of warranty service. Regular maintenance is a preventive measure and is not covered by the warranty.

The pressure relief device should be checked for operation at regular intervals to remove lime deposits. It is not allowed to install switches, outlets, and sockets in the forbidden space and lighting fixtures. Circuit breakers are not permitted in the safety space, but grounded sockets may be installed.

The water heater should be installed outside the prohibited volume so that it is not exposed to jets of water. A properly rated circuit breaker should be installed to ensure safe operation of the water heater. For daily use, it is advisable to keep the water heater plugged in, as the thermostat only turns the heat on when it is required to maintain the set temperature. Have your water heater serviced regularly by an authorized service center.

Never remove the water heater cover without first disconnecting it from the power supply.
