Commercial ASME Electric Water Heaters
The ASME Electric Models feature:
n A.S.M.E. Code Tank Construction—Standard.
n Immersion Thermostats—Immersion type for accurate temperature control
from up to 180°F (82°C) with manual reset high limit control.
n Factory Installed Hydrojet
inlet sediment reducing device helps prevent sediment build up in the tank.
n Vitraglas
®
Lining—An exclusively engineered enamel formula that provides
superior tank protection from the highly corrosive effects of hot water. This
formula (Vitraglas
®
) is fused to the steel surface by firing at a temperature of
over 1600°F (871°C.
n Water Connections— Factory-installed true dielectric fittings extend water
heater life and simplify water line connections.
n Elements—screw in style. Low watt density INCOLOY
minimize dry fire and prevents lime build up.
n Insulation System—Non-CFC foam covers the sides and top of the tank,
reducing heat loss. This results in less energy consumption, improved
efficiencies, and jacket rigidity.
n Protective Magnesium Anode Rod—Provides added protection against
corrosion for long-term, trouble-free service.
n Completely Pre-wired—With pressure lug terminal block eliminating need
for splicing or taping of wires.
n Hand Hole Cleanout—(20 (76L) thru 120 (454L) gallon models only).
n T&P Relief Valve—Installed.
n Low Restriction Brass Drain Valve—Durable tamper proof design.
n NSF Construction Available on All Models.
