Industrial-Grade Engineering & Durability
- 316L Stainless Steel Construction: Every unit features a high-grade 316L stainless steel heat exchanger and internal plumbing to provide maximum resistance against chemical corrosion and thermal stress.
- Direct Coil™ Heating Technology: This proprietary design features heating elements that vibrate slightly during operation to mechanically prevent the buildup of limescale and mineral deposits. This self-cleaning action ensures peak thermal transfer and longevity even in harsh, hard water environments.
- Advanced Flow Control™: Integrated microprocessor technology automatically modulates water flow to maintain a precise output temperature if the facility's demand exceeds the unit's heating capacity.
- NEMA Protection Options: The unit comes standard in a NEMA 3 enclosure. Optional NEMA 4 and 4X (Stainless Steel) enclosures are available for wash-down ratings or corrosive industrial 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 Certifications: 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.
