CHAPTER 1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
This Instruction Manual provides detailed coverage for the AERCO SmartPlate line of Water-to-
Water Heaters. Each SmartPlate Heater Model is equipped with AERCO’s Electronic Control
System (ECS) specifically designed for SmartPlate (ECS/SP) and an Electronic Control Valve,
MXG-461. This Control System and Valve combination can be used with all models and sizes of
SmartPlate Heaters. The SmartPlate Water Heaters are available in the following Single-Wall
and Double-Wall Heat Exchanger Models:
SmartPlate Single-Wall Models:
SP23, SP33, SP45, SP69, SP150
SmartPlate Double-Wall Models:
SPDW23, SPDW32, SPDW42, SPDW61, SPDW113
Figure 1-1 shows a typical packaged SmartPlate Water Heater with a single-wall heat
exchanger. Piping assembly components are similar for double-wall models. The remaining
paragraphs in this Chapter provide descriptions of the units, assemblies and sub-assemblies
included with the SmartPlate Models.
