PRODUCT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
1.1
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
Tank type water heater (the heater hereinafter) is designed for the accumulation heating of service
water
by electric energy. Water is heated by an electric element in an enamelled thermally insulated tank.
The element is at the time of heating controlled by a thermostat the temperature of which can be adjusted
continuously (within the range between 5°C and 74°C). Once the selected temperature is reached, heating
interrupts automatically. Water accumulated in
the tank is then used for the consumption. The tank keeps
constant pressure of water from the water main. If the combination faucet hot water valve is opened, water
from the water supply conduit pressed out by cold water pressure flows out of the heater. How water drains
off the upper part, and incoming water stays in the bottom part of the
heater. The pressure principle allows
hot water withdrawal at any place away from the heater.

ADVICE FOR CUSTOMERS
1.2.1
HOT WATER CONSUMPTION
Consumption of hot water in
households depends on the number of people, amount of sanitary
equipment, length, diameter and insulation of piping in the flat, or on individual habits of users.
The cheapest option of water heating comes at the time when the electricity rate is reduced.
Find out in what time intervals your electricity supplier provides reduced tariff and, depending
on that information, select relevant volume and power input of the heater so that your hot
water consumption covered the needs of your household.
1.2.2
ENERGY SAVING
The heater is insulated with quality polyurethane Freon free foam. Set the temperature
of the heater's thermostat to that level only that you need to run your home. Thus you will
reduce electricity consumption, as well as the amount
of lime sediments on the walls
of the receptacle and on the electric body.
1.2.3
EMERGENCY POWER CONSUMPTION
Even if no heated water is withdrawn from the heater, there is some minor leakage of heat.
That loss is measured for a period of 24 hours at the temperature of 65°C in
the heater,
and at 20°C in its ambient area. The resulting value is expressed in units [kWh/24h] and indicates
the amount of power needed to maintain the set temperature.
