Sure! Here are the step-by-step instructions for installing the Camplux ME60 Electric Hot Water Heater:
1. Choose a location: Select a location that allows easy access for maintenance or servicing. Ideally, install the water heater at least 8 to 9 inches from the ceiling or any adjacent walls.
2. Wall Mounting: If you plan to mount the water heater on the wall, fasten the supplied mounting bracket to the wall using screws suitable for the wall material and the weight of the water heater. Hang the water heater on the bracket and ensure that both "fingers" of the bracket are seated in the mounting slots. Confirm the water piping orientation (hot and cold) before wall mounting. The heater can also sit on the floor in a tray with a drain, but ensure it is installed in a vertical position.
3. Plumbing Connections: Connect the cold water inlet pipe to the inlet xxxx (marked with a blue ring) and the hot water outlet pipe to the outlet xxxx (marked with a red ring). If your water pipes are copper or bronze, use dielectric connections to prevent corrosion. Install a shut-off valve on the cold water side of the water heater for servicing purposes. Avoid applying heat directly to the inlet or outlet connections.
4. Temperatures & Pressure Relief Valve: Install a temperature and pressure relief valve as required by local codes. The valve must be marked with a maximum set pressure not exceeding 150 PSI, which is the maximum working pressure of the water heater. Ensure that the discharge pipe of the relief valve is not blocked, reduced in size, or equipped with a shut-off valve between the relief valve and the tank.
5. Filling the Water Heater: Before plugging in the power cord, ensure that the tank is completely filled with water and all air is removed. Open a hot water faucet and then open the cold water supply valve. When continuous water flows out of the faucet, the tank is filled. Close the hot water faucet and check the entire system for leaks.
6. Electrical Connections: Connect the water heater to a properly grounded 120V/AC outlet. Ensure that the water heater is equipped with the correct size circuit breaker in the master panel. Do not use an extension cord. If the power cord is damaged or not long enough, have a licensed electrician replace it.
7. Grounding Instruction: Adhere to all pertinent state and local codes for grounding the water heater. The water heater is fitted with a power cord that should be connected to a grounded 120V/AC receptacle.
Please note that these instructions are a summary and it is important to refer to the complete user manual for detailed installation instructions and safety precautions.
