Product Information
Benefits
Fully hygienic, efficient and economical domestic hot
water production with DHW tanks of high-grade stainless
steel – horizontal version.
Benefits at a glance:
H Corrosion-resistant tank of high-grade SA 240-316 Ti
stainless steel offers a long service life.
H Fully hygienic due to high quality homogeneous
stainless steel surfaces.
H The high-alloy material is immune to cracking or
peeling. The tank stays hygienic and requires only
minimum service.
H The entire water content is heated by a 1¼” (32 mm)
diameter stainless steel heat exchanger surface which
extends to the bottom of the tank.
H Certified to CSA Low Lead Content Certification
Program; including US Safe Drinking Water Act,
NSF/ANSI 372 as well as other applicable US State
requirements.
Vitocell 300-H, EHA Series Technical Data
H The positioning of the tubular heat exchanger coil
further ensures that 82 to 97% of the tank volume
can be drawn at constant water temperature.
H The stainless steel heat exchanger coil is self-venting
towards the top and self-draining towards the bottom,
therefore not susceptible to reduced heat transfer due
to air lock or sediment deposits.
H Standby losses minimized by 2¼” (58 mm) highly
effective, foamed-in-place HCFC-free insulation.
H Easy transport into mechanical room due to low
weight and compact construction.

WARNING
To ensure optimum, safe operation, the supplied
stainless steel well must be installed. The well diameter
is large enough to accommodate a wide variety of
sensing bulbs. Always use spring clip to ensure proper
contact of capillary bulb against the stainless steel well
for proper sensing/heat transfer!
Heating water supply temperatures over 230°F (110°C)
For these operating conditions, an approved high limit
safety aquastat must be installed to limit the domestic hot
water temperature to 203°F (95°C) in the tank.
Recirculation tapping
The recirculation tapping on the Vitocell-H 300 is also the
opening for mounting the temperature and pressure relief
valve.
If this opening is utilized for recirculation, extend the
stainless steel nipple on the tank with a brass tee of the
same size as the stainless steel nipple
both connections; see installation the instructions.
7 to accommodate
Temperature and pressure relief valve
A temperature and pressure relief valve (T&P relief valve)
is supplied with the tank. The heating contractor must
install the valve on each tank in a method meeting code
requirements. If local codes require a different relief valve,
substitute the manufacturer’s supplied valve. The tank is
approved for 100 psig where a CRN is required. Maximum
operating pressure is 150 psig.
For steam applications, a field supplied 1” T&P valve must
be utilized.

Warranty excerpt
Our warranty for domestic hot water tanks states that the
water heated should be of drinking water quality and that
any water treatment equipment in use must function
correctly.
If the product has been improperly installed or misapplied
by the installer, contractor or final user, Viessmann
accepts no responsibility for damage howsoever caused
and reserves the right to withdraw the product warranty.
In order to qualify for product warranty, strict adherence
to the installation and service manuals must be observed.
In the event that Viessmann non-approved components
are utilized, Viessmann reserves the right to withdraw all
expressed or implied warranties without written notice.
The water to be heated with the Vitocell must be drinking
(potable) water quality. If the tank is used to heat other
media, the warranty will be null and void. Damage
resulting from excessive pressure or temperature is clearly
not the responsibility of Viessmann.
The amount of chloride and sulfate acceptable to the tank
is limited. In areas where high concentrations of chloride
and sulfate are present in drinking water, please consult
Viessmann for directions.
For full warranty details, please read the product warranty
card.

Backflow preventers
Where backflow preventers are required, a domestic
water expansion tank installation is recommended in the
cold water inlet piping before the cold water enters the
Vitocell. For the backflow device, observe local plumbing
codes and regulations.

Example: Vitocell 300-H, 119 USG (450 L) capacity
Assume boiler output to tank is 238 MBH. Enter chart
at left and draw horizontal line across to recovery rate
of 284 GPH or 4.7 GPM for 140°F (60°C) domestic
hot water under column A. Where the horizontal line
intersects the 194°F (90°C) curve is the point of
intersection for the diagonal line used to size the pump.
The diagonal line begins at the origin and goes through
the point of intersection extending up to the top of the
chart. Read between the reference diagonal lines to get
a pump specification of 15 GPM at 4.5 ft.
To summarize:
For a Vitocell-H 300 with 119 USG (450 L) capacity
and 238 MBH input, the boiler water temperature is
194°F (90°C), difference between boiler return and
supply water temperature is 31°F (17°C), recovery
rate is 4.7 GPM of 140°F (60°C) DHW, and the pump
required is 15 GPM, 4.5 ft. plus pressure drop in piping
and boiler. If a multiple tank application is required,
i.e. 4 tanks at 238 MBH input each, then the pump
selection would be (4 x 15 GPM) 60 GPM at 4.5 ft.
plus piping pressure drop.
