Pipe installation

Installation should be carried out according to the 

applicable regulations and standards.

The boiler should be assembled indoors, moun-

ted to a wall or similar with the pipe connections 

underneath. 

The ambient temperature must not exceed 30°C.

The gap between the underside of the boiler and 

the surface beneath it must be at least 300 mm to 

enable electric cartridges to be replaced, if neces-

sary.

Hard, calciferous water is not suitable for use with 

this heating system. To avoid corrosion damage 

the pH value should not be too low. 

The blow-off pipe from the electric boiler safety 

valve flows into a drip tray in the boiler cabinet.

The installation inspection should be carried out 

according to the applicable regulations on a unit 

with a sealed expansion vessel, before the unit is 

operated. The inspection should be conducted by a 

suitably qualified person. The replacement of parts 

and the expansion vessel must not occur without 

a repeat inspection of the installation.

A counter torque wrench should be used during 

connection to avoid damaging the internal piping.

Design

LK Electric Boiler 4,5 kW is a wall-mounted elec-

tric boiler, intended primarily for low-temperature 

heating systems, e.g. under floor heating.

LK Electric Boiler 4,5 kW is delivered as a complete 

unit. The boiler is ready for use once the water and 

electricity are connected. 

The boiler includes:

•  Thermostat 
•  Overheating (maximum safe temperature) 

protection 

•  Indication power on and triggered overhea-

ting (maximum safe temperature) protection

•  Control switch 
•  Circulation pump, Grundfos UPM3 Auto L 

15-50

•  Expansion vessel 
•  Pressure gauge 
•  Thermometer 
•  Safety valve, 2,5 bar 
•  Automatic air bleeding valve 
•  Bypass valve 

The electric boiler is not fitted with a water heater, 

this is installed separately.

Function/Requirements

The boiler output meets the heat requirements 

for up to 90 m² of living space, depending on the 

insulation and ventilation. Depending on the con-

nection the boiler can supply 1,5, 2,25, 3 or 4,5 kW. 

The boiler is controlled by an in-built thermostat. 

If necessary, the boiler can also be controlled by an 

external thermostat, for more information please 

refer to the heading “External switching/room 

thermostat”.

Assembly

The boiler is mounted to the wall, or in a cabinet.

The boiler dimensions 420 x 700 x 200 mm (W x H 

x D) mean that it can be installed in most kitchen 

cabinets.
