Stiebel Eltron CE Plus 48 kW (480V Delta) 3-Phase Commercial Tankless Water Heater
The Stiebel Eltron CE Plus 48 kW (480V Delta) represents the pinnacle of high-voltage industrial water heating technology. Specifically engineered for 480V 3-phase Delta electrical architectures, this model (Part Number: CE-Plus-048-480) is a robust thermal powerhouse designed to deliver instantaneous hot water for large-scale commercial and industrial applications. By operating at a 99% energy efficiency rating, it eliminates the massive standby energy losses and spatial requirements inherent in traditional commercial boiler and storage tank systems.
Performance & Electrical Specifications
The CE Plus 48 kW utilizes high-voltage efficiency to provide significant temperature rises, making it ideal for facilities with rigorous sanitation or process-heating requirements.
- Power Output: 50.00 kW at 480V.
- Amperage: 60.14 Amps.
- Breaker Requirement: 70A (3-Pole).
- Temperature Rise Capability:
- 341°F rise at 1 gpm.
- 170°F rise at 2 gpm.
- 114°F rise at 3 gpm.
- 85°F rise at 4 gpm.
- Activation Threshold: A low minimum activation flow of 0.7 gpm ensures consistent performance even when paired with high-efficiency, low-flow fixtures.
- Maximum Flow Rate: Robust internal fluidics support demanding commercial needs up to 10.6 gpm at 60 psi.
Industrial-Grade Engineering & Durability
- 316L Stainless Steel Construction: Every unit features a high-grade 316L stainless steel heat exchanger and internal plumbing, providing maximum resistance to chemical corrosion, thermal fatigue, and high-pressure stress.
- Direct Coil™ Heating Technology: This proprietary system utilizes heating elements that vibrate during operation to actively prevent the accumulation of limescale and mineral deposits. This mechanical self-cleaning action ensures long-term thermal efficiency in hard water environments.
- Advanced Flow Control™: Integrated microprocessor technology automatically modulates water flow to maintain a precise output temperature if the facility's instantaneous demand exceeds the unit's 50.00 kW capacity.
- NEMA Enclosure Options: The unit comes standard in a NEMA 3 enclosure. For specialized industrial facilities, optional NEMA 4 and 4X (Stainless Steel) enclosures are available for wash-down ratings or corrosive atmospheres.
- Comprehensive Safety Protocols: Equipped with four independent levels of over-temperature protection, an automatic internal air vent, and a lead-free brass pressure relief valve.
Compliance & Quality Assurance
- Safety Standards: Certified to ANSI/UL Std. 499 and conforms to CAN/CSA Std. C22.2 No.88.
- Lead-Free Compliance: Tested and certified by the WQA against NSF/ANSI/CAN 372 for lead-free construction.
- Industrial Warranty: Protected by a 6-year warranty against leakage and a 2-year warranty on all components and materials.
- Manufacturing: Proudly manufactured in the USA.
