Infrared Water Heater
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
The unusual design of this tank provides a considerable heating surface (larger than one square meter) wrapped in a special heating cover. Once powered up, the cover reaches a temperature of 120°C and takes the temperature inside the inner tank walls as high as 85°C: this increases the thermal exchange with water and, at the same time, prevents lime scale build-up.
FUNCTIONAL SPECIFICATIONS
Cold water flowing into the tank from below is conveyed along heated walls, so that the temperature exchange between water and the walls is faster and more effective and water is heated up more quickly.
This results in reduced and optimised power consumption thanks to: i. the heater – which is made up of carbon fibre cables (carbon fibres cut power demand by 40% given the same target temperature), and ii. power splitting (470 W - 1220 W - 1470 W in "Plus" mode).
The process is supervised by an electronic control unit. The control unit, provided with a display unit, is connected to two water temperature measuring probes working continuously: one of them is installed in the lower and the other in the higher part of the tank.
The control unit allows you to:
- Set two daily working time slots (two-rate time-of-day tariff option),
- Decide how to use the storage temperature and gauge electrical consumption based on the user's actual demand of hot water,
- Manage power output.
ADVANTAGES
Thanks to the above, the Water Heater can:
- Produce unparalleled hot water quantities compared with similar electrically heated water dipped products,
- Ensure significant energy savings and respect for the environment,
- Modulate power consumption, which is a very important prerequisite for energy savings and rationalisation.
A TYPICALY SUPPLIED BOILER
The above performances combined with an electronic control unit allow you to pre-set hot water supplies depending on your actual needs.

INSTALLATION REMARKS
- We recommend installing an expansion tank to compensate for the increased volume of heated water.
- Install an inlet pressure adjustment unit.
- Considering that feed water is usally rather hard (up to 25°f), we recommend installing a polyphosphate filter to avoid calcium precipitate in the boiler. For intensive use or water harder that 25°f a water softener must be installed.
