7. Operating instructions
A. Heaters type EJK do not need to be supervised during operation.
However, if the water is hard, heating elements should be periodically
cleaned of boiler scale as it blocks the heat flow and therefore
increases the current consumption and may cause damages of heating
elements.
B. The temperature of water in tank is set by the temperature controller
knob. Remember that electric energy consumption and accumulation
of boiler scale increase at higher temperatures. Temperatures of water
achieved for various settings during tests at the manufacturer's are
shown in tab. 3.
