Section 9, Installing the Distribution Module  

 

The Domestic water connections are located on top of the 

module. The Cold water supply can be connected using a ½” 
NPT fitting. The maximum water supply pressure to the 

module is 150 PSI (10 bar). The Hot water Outlet 
temperature is regulated by an internal mixing valve factory 
set at 120F (49°C). If needed this valve can be adjusted in a 
range from 100F (38°C) to a maximum of 145F (63°C). For 
more details about adjusting the temperature see chapter 

9.9. A domestic water drain is provided for winterizing 
purposes. This will prevent damage to the internal heat 
exchanger due to freezing water. See Figure 9-4:  Domestic 
Hot water system plumbing.
 

All fittings, hose, tube and fitting sealant involving the domestic 

water must be food safe and approved for use with domestic 

water and rated for the domestic water system pressure. 

WARNING 

 

 Figure 9-4 Domestic Hot Water System Plumbing.

 

The engine heat/pre-heat connections are located on the 

side of the distribution module. Hot coolant from the engine 

enters the module at the “engine heat inlet”. The “engine heat 
outlet” returns the coolant back to the engine supply. When 
the pre-heat function is installed an additional pump is 
connected between the “engine heat outlet” and the engine
