IMPORTANT!
When SmartPlate Water Heaters are shipped from the factory, all four isolation ball valves
and the drain valve (Figure 1-3) are opened. Close all valves during installation. Do not open
the valves until instructed to do so in Chapter 5 of this manual.
2.5 SMARTPLATE ELECTRICAL WIRING CONNECTIONS
The SmartPlate ECS/SP Control Box and all other ECS/SP components are installed on the unit
prior to shipment from the factory. Therefore, electrical connections to the ECS/SP basically
consist of connecting external AC power to the ECS/SP Control Box. The system can be
powered by a single-phase AC voltage of 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 220 VAC, 50 Hz or 220 VAC 60 Hz.
However, if the ECS/SP was ordered with the Modbus Communication option, several additional
signal lead connections will need to be made inside the Control Box. These signal leads will
permit the ECS/SP to be controlled by an external Energy Management System (EMS), Building
Automation System (BAS), or Computer. Proceed as follows:
NOTE:
Following installation, a lock (Not Supplied) can be installed on the front door of the Control
Box, if desired, to prevent unauthorized access to ECS settings.
