power, Bypass and Reset. The power switch must be pushed
ON (power LED will turn ON) to turn the DC electrical power
to the main Control Board and WaterHeater™ ON and is

Activating the Burner (Primary Heat Source)
NOTICE
Do not operate
the
WaterHeater™
until it is filled
with water and
all trapped air
has been bled.

•
The burner switch on the Remote Operating Panel controls
the ON/OFF of the diesel burner (primary heat source).
When the burner switch is turned ON, the diesel portion of
The WaterHeater™ by ITR will turn on after ten seconds. The
Burner LED on the Remote Operating Panel will turn ON when
the diesel burner has been activated. The burner will
continue to operate until the water in The WaterHeater™ by
ITR reaches the set operating temperature range. At this
point, the diesel burner will turn OFF. If The WaterHeater™
by ITR water should cool to outside of this temperature
range, the burner will again come on and will continue until
either the burner switch on the Remote Operating Panel is
turned OFF or the temperature range is again achieved. If
the burner switch on the Remote Operating Panel is turned
OFF, the burner stops and The WaterHeater™ by ITR enters a
two minute cool down stage prior to completely shutting
down.
Activating the AC immersion element (Secondary Heat
Source)
•
Turn the AC breaker panel circuit breaker to the AC element
ON. The AC Heat (green) LED on the remote operating panel
will turn ON indicating the AC element is energized and the
water is being electrically heated. It will continue to operate
until the water in the WaterHeater reaches the set operating
temperature range. At this point, the element will turn OFF.
If the water should cool to outside of this temperature range,
the AC immersion element will again be energized and will
continue until either the AC circuit breaker is placed OFF or
the temperature range is again achieved.
