3.6

The built-in temperature high limit is factory set at

180

°F (82°C). This control works best when it is set about

40

°F (22°C) above the water outlet temperature. To adjust

the limit control setting remove the small panel on the limit
control to access the adjustment screw. Under normal
operation the heater should not cycle on the limit control.

3.7

If the limit trips it must be manually reset before the

heater will operate. Prior to reset, the condition(s) which
caused the trip shall be corrected.

4.0

MAINTENANCE

4.1

Service to the unit shall only be done when the power

is disconnected at the mains.

4.2

After the first few days of operation, and periodically

thereafter, inspect for piping leaks and loose electrical
connections.

4.3

The EPWD unit, because it is used in an open loop

water heating system, may be subject to sludge build-up if
the water is hard and untreated. This unit must be drained
at regular intervals (depending on water conditions and
operating time) to remove sludge. Once a year a flange
heater must be removed and the vessel inspected and
cleaned as required. Local conditions may cause this
inspection time to vary.
