Connection to water main

1. The heater must be connected to water main with at least 0.1 MPa pressure; maximum pressure is 0.7 MPa.

www.timberk.com • electrical storage water heater

NOTE:

The water heater is the appliance, operating in such a manner that pressure of water in the water heater corresponds to the pressure of water in water main. If pressure in the main exceeds 0.7 MPa, then it is necessary to mount a pressure reducer before the water heater so that pressure doesn’t exceed 0.7MPa.

2. G1/2 diameter pipes are used to connect the water heater to the water pipeline.

3. To prevent a leakage when connecting pipes, use rubber sealing gaskets on the threaded pipe ends.

4. Screw a relief valve to the inlet nozzle, marked blue and embossed arrow of the water flow direction, so that the water flow direction coincides with direction of the arrow on the valve’s case.

NOTE:

Do not mount additional accessories, such as a shutoff valve, between the relief valve and the inlet nozzle.

5. Water heater with the mounted valve must be connected to the water main – install a shut-off valve at the water inlet point. You need to connect a drain pipe to the opening of the pressure relief of safety valve. Next you should put a drain pipe to the sewer.

6. Connect the desired number of consumption points to the outlet nozzle, marked red.

7. Check leak integrity of joints: open the shut-off cock and one of the cock assemblies. After the tank is filled with water, as evidenced by issue of water from the cock assembly, shut the cock assembly and check the leak integrity of all joints.

IMPORTANT!

If water in the installation location contains a large amount of calcium, manganese or iron salts, then IT IS NECESSARY to mount a respective filter in the delivery system to reduce the amount of scale generated in the tank and on the heating element.

Connection to electric main

IMPORTANT!

Prior to connecting the tank water heater, make sure that the water heater is properly grounded. Proper grounding is important to minimize electric shocks and risk of fire. The power cord is equipped with a plug with a grounding pin. The appliance must be used with a properly grounded power outlet. If the outlet, you are intending to use, is not properly grounded or grounded by a time-delay fuse or a circuit breaker, contact a qualified electrician to install a proper outlet.

1. The water heater is designed to be connected to 230V single-phase electric main. Prior to connecting make sure that parameters of the electric main in the place of connection correspond to parameters, specified on the identification plate with technical parameters of the appliance. You should follow the current electrical safety code when installing the water heater.

2. The power outlet must be properly grounded. The outlet must be designed for rated current not less than 10A. The power outlet and plug must always be dry to prevent current leakage. Regularly check if the power plug is tightly connected to the outlet. Do it in the following order: insert the power plug into the outlet, switch off the water heater after halfhour operation and unplug the cord, check if the plug is heated by your hand. If the plug is heated over 50°C, then to prevent damages, accidents and fire as a result of bad electrical contact, replace the outlet with a new one. A specialist must do this.

3. Power cord of the appliance is a single unit with GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter).

www.timberk.com • electrical storage water heater
