possibility of changing the orientation by accidentally overtightening

the inlet supply. Improper orientation of the Eliminator may cause

temperature buildup issues or spells of colder than usual water

temperatures.

HIGH LIMIT SWITCH

The digital thermostat (see Figure 3) contains the high limit

(energy cutoff) sensor. The high limit switch interrupts

main burner gas flow should the water temperature reach

203°F(195°C).

In the event of high limit switch operation, the appliance cannot be

restarted unless the water temperature is reduced to approximately

120°F (49°C). The high limit reset button on the front of the control

then needs to be depressed.

Continued manual resetting of high limit control, preceded by

higher than usual water temperature is evidence of high limit

switch operation. The following is a possible reason for high limit

switch operation.
A malfunction in the thermostatic controls would allow the gas

valve to remain open causing water temperature to exceed the

thermostat setting. The water temperature would continue to rise

until high limit switch operation.

Contact your dealer or service agent if continued high limit

switch operation occurs.

ELECTRONIC IGNITION CONTROL

Each heater is equipped with a ignition module. The solid state

ignition control (see Figure 4), ignites the main burner by utilizing

a silicone nitride ignitor. The silicone nitride ignitor shuts off during

the heating cycle and the main burner flame is sensed through a

remote flame sensor integral to the silicone nitride ignitor assembly.

The ignition control will try to ignite the main burner three times

before lockout. Then it waits one hour before trying again to ignite

the main burners. This is a continuous cycle.

EXHAUST INDUCER (BLOWER ASSEMBLY)

All units are equipped with a exhaust inducer. The inducer

assists in drawing in fresh air to the unit for combustion and then

assists in dispensing the combustion by-products into the venting

leading outside.

The exhaust inducer is equipped with a gravity controlled damper

to reduce the amount of heat loss through the flue, improving

efficiency.

CIRCULATING PUMP

A circulating pump is used when a system requires a circulating

loop or there is a storage tank used in conjunction with the heater.

Refer to the piping diagrams at rear of manual for electrical hookup

information and install in accordance with the latest version of the

National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70.

Only all bronze circulators are used with commercial water

heaters.

Although circulators are oiled and operated by the manufacturer

some circulators must be oiled again before operating. Please

refer to manufacturer’s instructions.

DISHWASHING MACHINE REQUIREMENT

These appliances meet the National Sanitation Foundation

Standard for sanitary installations when used with the following

leg kit part number 9003425205.

All dishwashing machines meeting the National Sanitation

Foundation requirements are designed to operate with water

flow pressures between 15 and 25 psi. Flow pressures above

25 psi, or below 15 psi, will result in improperly sanitized dishes.

Where pressures are high, a water pressure reducing or flow

regulating control valve should be used in 180°F (82°C) line to

the dishwashing machine, and should be adjusted to deliver water

between these limits.

The National Sanitation Foundation also recommends

circulation of 180°F (82°C) water. Where this is done, the

circulation should be very gentle so that it does not cause any

unnecessary turbulence inside the water heater. The circulation

should be just enough to provide 180°F (82°C) water at the point

of take-off to the dishwashing machine. Adjust flow by means

of the plug cock in the circulating line.
