PACKAGE CONTAINS:
water heater - mounting - bolts, nuts and screws (for assembly) - user’s manual - condi-
tions of warranty.
INSTALLATION SITE
The water heater has to be placed in a dry and well-ventilated location. This precaution is required, even
though water heaters are made of sea environment resistant materials, since electrical systems are present
(in models provided). Moreover, if installed in non-ventilated environments, condensation could occur and
could be mistaken for a leak.
INSTALLATION
• Put mounting (17) on the tank (1) using studs and nuts provided (18, 19, 20).
• Fix water heater on flat surface or inclined plane or wall, as shown in fig. 1, using proper mountings for the
weight of the water heater and for the type of installation site in the boat.
WARNING:
the weight of water heater/unit in the technical data refers to the empty unit. In order to
have the gross weight add to the empty weight, the water amount. (1 liter of water will almost weigh 1
Kg. / 2,2 lb).
• Carry out the hydraulic connections, relating to the input and output of tap water and from the engine
cooling to the heat exchanger, as shown in fig. 2. Keep the connections between engine cooling system and
heat exchanger as short as possible.
WARNING:
the overpressure release pipe must be positioned sloping evenly downwards in a location
protected from the formation of ice.
WARNING:
water might drip from the overpressure release pipe of the device, and this pipe must be left
open to the atmosphere.
WARNING:
when fittings are used on water outlets, use Loctite 243, 577 or Teflon on the threads in or-
der to ensure tightness. Make sure that there is no water leakage.
