Specification
The fully modulating, on-demand, gas fired tankless water heater(s) shall be Takagi Tankless Water Heater model T-M50 or T-M50-ASME, having a maximum input rating of 380,000 Btu/h
and available in NG or LP. The heater shall have 1 in. male NPT water and gas connections. The inlet gas supply pressures shall be 5.0 in. WC (min.) up to 10.5 in. WC (max.) for NG and
8.0 in. WC (min.) up to 14 in. WC (max.) for LP. The heater(s) can use an accessory temperature remote, TM-RE30/9007603005, that can be installed up to 400 ft. from the heater using 18
gauge (minimum) control wire. The temperature remote shall provide diagnostic information, fault history, and heater set temperature. The heater(s) shall operate using 120 V / 60 Hz
power source.
The heater(s) shall be vented with 5” diameter Category III vent pipe with a length not to exceed 50 ft. (equivalent), terminating horizontally or vertically. The heater(s) can be direct
vented with optional direct vent conversion kit, TM-DV50/9007669005, using 5” diameter pipe. The intake pipe may use material such as PVC, ABS, aluminum, or Category III pipe
and cannot exceed 50 ft. (equivalent) length. The outdoor installation shall use a vent cap, TM-VC50/9007677005.
The water heater(s) shall contain two separate combustion sections for built-in redundancy, each section containing a copper, fin tube heat exchanger with quick release brass or bronze
waterways. The heater(s) shall be controlled by onboard solid-state printed circuit boards which use the following factory installed components: thermistors to monitor water
temperature; flow sensors to measure flow rate; flame sensors to monitor combustion; Air-Fuel Ratio Rod to measure and adjust air input in order to maintain optimal combustion
efficiency. The heater also consists of inline fusing and surge absorbers for electrical surge protection, electronic spark igniters, aluminized stainless steel burners, hi-limit temperature
switches, modulating gas valves, dual freeze protection that will automatically fire the heater (indoor direct vent model only) and use heating blocks to protect the heat exchanger,
and overheat cutoff fuses.
The heater(s) can manifold to Easy-Link up to 4 heaters to provide additional capacity. The Easy-Link controls shall be built onto the onboard solid-state printed circuit board and does
not require external controls. The linking control wire shall be supplied with the heater. The heater(s) can use a Multi-Unit controller, TM-MC01/9007675005, to manifold 5-10 heaters.
The Easy-Link and Multi-Unit Controller shall modulate the system for the most efficient performance. The Easy-Link and Multi-Unit Controller shall rotate the priority heater every
12 hours of operation time or 100 starts for balanced duty/cycle operation.
The heater(s) shall be CSA approved for sale in the United States and Canada, have a minimum thermal efficiency of 80%, meets ASHRAE 90.1-2007, complies with Low NOx emissions
of 40 ng/J or 55 ppm, and shall be certified to NSF 5 Standards. The T-M50 ASME shall be certified by ASME with the HLW stamp.
