6. Description of applicance

The Zip instantaneous water heaters are compact electronically controlled water heaters. It is intended to provide economical heating of 
water for a wash basin when installed together with a sanitary water fitting. When the hot-water tap is opened, the heater switches itself 
on automatically when the minimum water flow rate is exceeded and heats the water as it passes through the appliance.

There are 3 available temperature settings, 35ºC, 38ºC and 45ºC (Max).  

For best performance, always fit the special flow controller included with the appliance. This controller is inserted into the outler at the 
end of the tap and fits into any standard sleeve size M 22/24.

The maximum possible outlet temperature is determined by the temperature of the incoming water, the rate of flow and the heating 
power of the appliance.

This appliance delivers water not exceeding 50ºC in accordance with AS3498.
