Assembly and Installation4
4.2 Tank Piping Installation
1. Install all piping and components per local and state
codes (Fig. 6).
Use threaded connections on all tank fittings. Fittings
are supplied. It is suggested to install shut off valves
in all water lines.
Install the 3/4“ brass tee fitting on the DHW outlet
connection (AB) with the teflon tape provided. Install
P and T valve (Fig. 6, Item. 2) into top of the brass
tee. Pipe the relief line full port to a nearby floor drain.
Add label to P and T relief valve stating: „Relief valve
may release water during heating of the tank“.
Install furnished 3/4“ brass couplings with teflon tape
provided on other three tappings located on top of the
tank. (See Fig. 4 for details)
Periodically test the operation of the P and T valve by
manually opening the valve.
All piping must be installed without undue stress!
Test all piping connections for leaks.

4.3 Temperature Control
For accurate control of the tank water temperature, one
has the option of using either the sensor supplied with
the Buderus Logamatic control or SP30D control, or the
Honeywell aquastat supplied with the S120 tank.
4.3.1 Installation of Buderus Logamatic FB Sensor
or Goldline SP30D Sensor Probe
Fully insert the suitable DHW sensor (Fig. 7, Item. 2)
together with the tension spacer (Fig. 7, Item. 1)
supplied with the tank into the factory installed tank
well (Fig. 7, Item. 3). Wire sensor leads to suitable
control terminals. (Sensor leads can be extended
using regular thermostat wiring.)
NOTICE
Ensure that the entire surface of the
sensor is in contact with the tank well.

Placing Tank in Operation 5
5 Placing Tank in Operation
Prior to start-up, verify that the tank is filled with water
and that the cold feed is functional and unrestricted.
Check all connections for leaks.
Information regarding boiler/burner operation startup can be found in their respective manuals
The complete system must be placed in operation by
the installing contractor or one of his associates in
the presence of the end user. The end user shall be
informed about start-up procedure and system operation.

6 Maintenance
Unless specified in writing to the contrary, the S120 tank
should only be used for heating of domestic hot water.
A bi-annual inspection of the tank is recommended and
to be performed by a service technician. This inspection
involves assessing the status of the magnesium anode
rod and the need for cleaning of the tank interior.
In case of unfavorable water conditions (hard water) or
when operating the tank at high tank temperatures
(greater than 140 °F), an annual inspection is
recommended.
6.1 Testing of the Magnesium Anode Rod
DANGER
due to electricity.
DANGER!
Prior to inspection, disconnect
electricity.
Close off cold feed (EK), and drain tank. Open a
faucet at a higher location to vent the tank.
Remove plastic plugs (Fig. 10, Item. 1) from the
magnesium anode rod and clean-out opening.
Unscrew the magnesium anode rod (Fig. 10, Item. 2)
from the tank using a pipe wrench.
NOTICE
Keep surface of magnesium anode rod
free from oil or grease.
Clean surface of anode rod with water.
Check surface degradation of anode rod.
Change out the anode rod if its diameter is less than
1/2“ to 3/4“ or if its surface is severely pitted. No
corrosion protection of tank when anode rod is
severely degraded. Tank warranty is voided in this
case.

6.2 Tank Cleaning
Remove tank inspection plug (Fig. 11, Item. 1) using
a 15/16“ Allen wrench.
Visually inspect tank interior and clean when
necessary. To remove scale and build-up from tank
coil, turn on boiler and tank circulator and circulate
hot boiler water through tank coil. Spray cold water
on coil surface to shock build-up from tank coil. Rinse
scale and debris form tank through tank drain.
TANK DAMAGE
due to contact with sharp objects.
ATTENTION!
Never attempt to remove coil build-up
with a sharp object, as it may damage
the tank’s protective surface coating.

6.3 Recommissioning after Tank Cleaning
Install magnesium anode rod (Fig. 10, Item. 2). Use
quality teflon tape for sealing. Wrap generously.
Install inspection plug (Fig. 11, Item. 1). Use quality
teflon tape for sealing. Wrap generously.
Place system back in operation.
Check all connections for leaks.
Put plastic plugs (Fig. 10, Item. 1) back in place on
magnesium anode and inspection plug.
