The Flow-Line heater is factory set to accept input water from the left and exiting on the right, this can be
reversed by rotating the flow switch 180° (i.e. ½ turn).
Warning!
The flow switch paddle can be damaged when reversing the flow direction if it is lifted by
more than 5-mm from its housing and turned with force. If the flow switch has been rotated it is important
to ensure that it is finally locked down in the correct orientation perpendicular (at right angles) to the flow
of water.
The flow rate of water entering the heater
must not
exceed 13,000-litres per hour (2,860 Imp Gallons per
hour. A higher flow rate
will
require the installation of a by-pass to prevent damage to the heating elements.
The heater will not operate with a flow rate of less than 1,000-litres per hour (220 Imp Gallons per hour).

ONNECTION
The heater must be installed in accordance with the country / regional requirements & regulations. In any
event the work must be carried out by a qualified electrician who will provide a certificate of conformity
upon completion of the work. The power supply
must
be fitted with a RCD.
The heating element(s) in the Flow-Line heater are pre-wired to the main terminal block and are ready to be
connected via a contactor.
