Rheem 54KW - Manual (Page 4)

Electric Booster continued.
• Integral fusing – all models have integral
fusing for each element.
• Anode rods – two (2) magnesium anodes
are installed in each tank for maximum
corrosion resistance.
• Temperature and pressure relief valve –
AGA/ASME rated and factory installed.
• Electrical connections – pre-wired, accessible
control box with multiple knock-outs on side in
size selections to match the National Electric
Code. Sizes range from 1/2" to 2". A grounding
screw is provided for attaching an equipment
grounding conductor.
• Single panel control box – with hinged
stainless steel door, provides immediate access
to all electrical components and elements.
• Terminal block – all models are equipped
with UL Listed terminal blocks for simplicity of
installation. The terminal block will accept either
copper or aluminum field connect wire.
• 120 volt control circuit – all units are furnished
with a fused 120 volt control circuit. All controls
(thermostats, high temperature limit, etc.) are
operated off of this basic 120 volt control circuit.
This circuit is created by an internal multi-tap
transformer of unique design that has four
(4) taps for the primary voltages, 208, 240,
277 and 480.
• Water connections – hot outlet and cold inlet
are 1-1/4" NPT dielectric nipples which prevent
excessive turbulence of heated water and
results in optimum tank draw.
• Heavy insulation – an effective blanket of
insulation completely surrounds tanks to limit
heat loss and assure high operating efficiency.
• Stainless steel legs – 6" stainless steel legs
are provided with each unit.
