Nibe ELK 213, Installer Manual, Page: 5 / 24

ELK 213 is an electric heater intended for heating
buildings and indirect heating of hot water. ELK 213 can
also be mounted together with a boiler, accumulator
tank or heat pump. When installing together with a heat
pump, for example, the electric heater is engaged
automatically as supplementary heating when the
heating demand is greater than the heat pump’s capa-
city.
The stainless steel electric coils and electric boiler tube
are made of acid-resistant steel (SIS 2333), which gives
a very good service life.
ELK 213 contains temperature limiter and contactors to
enable external control of the power.
ELK 213 is equipped with a time relay. Time delay is
recommended when the connected power exceeds 6
kW. The thermostats for the immersion heater and
isolator switch are operated by knobs on the control
panel.
