Manual Reset
If the heater unit rises to an unsafe temperature the thermal overload
switch will stop power to the units element. To access the reset switch,
FIRST, POWER MUST BE DISCONNECTED
. Remove the white ABS cover to
access the reset button. Assuming the temperature is below 130 °F,
depressing the reset button will reset the V18. You may need to press the
reset button with up to 15-20 lbs. of pressure in order to reset it.
Note, a tripped thermal safety switch most likely indicates a problem
that should be corrected before resetting.
A short circuited Solid State Relay is a possible cause of a tripped safety
switch. If this is suspected, turn off the circuit breakers feeding power to
the backup heater. Disconnect the SSR from the output signal connection.
Have a licensed Electrician check the SSR before turning the circuit
breakers back on.
Another cause may be if the V18b heating element is too close to (or
touching) the interior sidewall of the V18b heater vessel.
Insufficient flow, particularly with multiple V18bs in series, may cause
this.
If the V18b backup unit stops working, first check the Chiltrix standard
controller for any error codes. Check for loose wires, see troubleshooting
section. Make sure nothing is blocking flow through the heater.

DO NOT REMOVE WHITE COVER UNLESS POWER HAS BEEN
DISCONNECTED.
