• To avoid any risk of corrosion, connect the stainless steel tank directly to the earth.
• Make sure to inst all a pressure reducing valve set at 4.5 bar in the DHW circuit if the
supply pressure is higher than 6 bar.
• On the DHW circuit, install an approved safety group, comprised of a safety valve
set at 7 bar, a check valve and a stop valve.
• Make sure that the outlet of the safety unit goes directly to the sewer to avoid any
potential damage.
• Do not install the safety group above the tank to avoid water discharge on to the

• Hot water can burn!
In the event of small amounts of hot water repeatedly being drawn off, a
stratification effect can develop in the tank. The upper hot water layer may then
reach very high temperatures.
• ACV recommends using a pre-set thermostatic mixing valve in order to provide
hot water at a maximum of 60°C.
• Water heated to wash clothes, dishes and for other uses can cause serious burns.
• In order to avoid exposure to extremely hot water that can cause serious burns,
never leave children, old people, disabled or handicapped people in the bath
orshower alone.
• Never allow young children to turn on the hot water or fill their own bath.
• Adjust the wate r temperature in accordanc e with usage and plumbin g regulations.
•
ifaminimum temperature of 60°C is not maintained in both the DHW tank andthe
hot water distribution network.
Essential instructions for the electrical safety
• Only an approved installer is authorized to carry out the electrical connections.
• Install a 2-way switch and a fuse or circuit breaker of the recommended rating
outside the appliance, so as to be able to shut power down when servicing the
appliance or before performing any operation on it.
• Shut down external electrical supply of the appliance before performing any
operation on the electrical circuit.

PACKING CONTENTS
All appliances are delivered, tested and packaged separately.
Package
• One SL/SLEW hot water tank.
• One multilingual Installation, Operation and Maintenance Instructions.
• One wall-mounting kit with support and ow diverter
General Remark
• The hot water tank may be installed either on the floor or on a wall using the
provided wall-mounting kit (depending on the model).
Essential instructions for the correct operation of the installation
• When hung on a wall, the SLEW models must be assembled with the heating
element to the bottom (DHW pipes to the bottom).
• In horizontal configuration, the peak output and the first hour continuous output
will be reduced. In this case, we recommend to oversize the tank.

Essential instructions forthe safety of persons and the environment
• Refer to the safety instructions for the installation. Failure to comply with these
instructions can result in damages to the installation, severe injuries or death.
• Hot water can burn! ACV recommends using a pre- set thermostatic mixing valve
in order to provide hot water at a maximum of 60°C.
• The filling circuit of the DHW tank must be equipped with a safety group,
comprised at least of a stop valve, a check valve, a safety valve set at 7 bar, and
possibly, an expansion vessel of the appropriate size. Make sure that the circuit
between the tank and the safety valve is always open.
• The third DHW tank connection, if any, can be used for the auxiliary DHW loop.
If the connection is not used, replace the protective plug by a brass plug of the
appropriate size.
General remarks
• In certain countries the domestic kits must be approved.
• The circuit illustrations are basic principle diagrams only.

• The discharge pipe of the safety unit must be open to the outside. If the safety
unit drips periodically, it may be due to an expansion problem or clogging ofthe
valve.
• For internal inspections , the hand hole can be used. If there is none, use one of the
water connections to insert the appropriate inspection equipment. If necessary,
drain the tank before inspection.
The annual maintenance service, performed by an engineer, must include:
• A check of the air bleed valve: the bleeding of air can lead to the need for adding water to
the system.
• A check of the primary and DHW circuit pressure gauges.
• The manual activation of the storage water circuit safety valve once a year. This operation
will lead to a discharge of hot water.
• A check of the correct operation of valves, taps, control units and accessories that are
possibly installed [refer to the manufacturer's instructions if necessary].

Essential instructions forthe safety of persons and the environment
• The water coming out of the drain valve is very hot and can cause very severe
burns. Make sure the area around the hot water flow is clear of people.
Essential instructions for the electrical safety
• Shut down the external electrical supply of the installation before draining.
• Drain the tank if it is not used in winter and is at risk from exposure to ice. If the
primary circuit water contains antifreeze, only the DHW tank must be drained. If
the heating circuit does not contain antifreeze, the heating circuit and domestic
water must be drained.
• Before draining the DHW, isolate the tank and lower the pressure of the heating
circuit to 1 bar, in order to prevent the DHW tank from being crushed.
DRAINING THE PRIMARY CIRCUIT Figure 3
To drain the primary circuit of the hot water heater:
1. Stop the charging pump.
2. Isolate the hot water primary circuit byclosing the stop valves (1).
3. Connect the drain valve (2) to the sewer using a flexible hose.
4. Open the drain valve (2) and drain thewater from the primary circuit tothedrain.
5. Open the tank’s air bleed valve (3) toaccelerate drainage.
6. Close the drain valve (2) and air bleed valve (3) after draining the tank.
