A. O. Smith’s new proprietary electronic water heater control, provides precise + or – 1°F
temperature control, that is ideal for industrial and food service applications where exact
temperatures of hot water are needed.
Plain English Text – Animated icons display detailed operational and diagnostic
information. Fault or Alert messages appear if an operational issue occurs.
Element Sensing – Each element is constantly monitored and current on/off state is
displayed, any element failure is reported and it’s exact location is shown, eliminates any
need for field testing of elements.
Low Water Cut Off – Factory standard on board low water cutoff uses a remote electronic
immersion type probe to prevent energizing of the elements in the event of low water
condition and eliminates accidental dry firing.
Sequencing – Units with multiple element contactors are sequenced on with one-second
delay between stages. Prevents high amp electrical loads from hitting the electric system
all at once and provides a smoother operating unit. Adjustable modulating mode is
optional see options.
Economy Mode Operation – Control system automatically lowers the operating set point
by a programmed value during user defined time periods. Seven-day clock may be
programmed for night set back and or weekend shutdown to reduce operating cost
and save energy.
MODELS
DSE 5 – 120
iCOMM™ Compatible – Call 1.888.WATER02 for more information.
POWERED ANODE
The DSE models use a unique combination of a conventional magnesium anode and a
European style power anode. The powered anode is self-adjusting to water conditions,
does not require maintenance unless damaged, and provides longer-lasting tank protection
in hard to reach areas. This multi-anode system provides superior anodic protection to
hidden surfaces of the tank not protected in convention commercial electric water heaters.
INCOLOY IMMERSION HEATER S – Heavy-duty medium watt density
elements have incoloy sheathing and prewired leads: provides excellent
protection against oxidation and scaling. Input ranges from 3kW to 90kW
available (see accompanying chart).
All models meet or exceed the thermal efficiency and/or standby
HEAVY FOAM INSULATED –
loss requirements of the U. S. Department of Energy and current edition ASHRAE/IESNA 90.1.
GLASSLINED TANK – A. O. Smith’s PermaGlas® coating provides truly superior protection
against corrosion and is permanently bonded to all inner tank surfaces at 1600°F.
ASME TANK CONSTRUCTION – 125 psi working pressure (65 thru 120 gallons), 150 psi
working pressure (5 thru 50 gallons).
THREE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY – For complete warranty information consult written
warranty.
