MOUNTING AND SAFETY INFORMATION

a) Important mounting information! Do not bend hang-up hook safety element
due to possible fracture. Risk of injury by falling device in the case of non-ob-
servance!
b) A wall rail for hanging up the upper fastening hook is enclosed with every de-
vice, which is mounted to the wall using two screws and takes over the suppor-
ting function.
Two additional screwed connections must be provided on the wall (in accordan-
ce with the dimensioned drawing with the device dimensions) for the lower wall
plate of the device; this has only a supporting function against the wall as well
as against lateral shifting. The lower wall bracket has no supporting function
and may therefore not be subject to any excessive stress. Lifting and/or suppor-
ting the electrical storage heater on the lower wall bracket is prohibited, as this
strain can lead to the wall bracket tearing off! Hot water heaters of a suspended
type must not be mounted horizontally.
c) The fastening hooks and with that the hang-up dimension A can be adjusted at intervals of 50 mm by
repositioning the rear tank wall screws into other holes of the hook (only for 50 – 150 litres). The attach-
ment hook is always to be secured to the rear wall of the tank with at least two screws.
Caution: Only fixing hooks provided by the manufacturer may be used!
If the assembly height is changed, this is to be tightened to the mounting screws with a torque of 40 -
50 Nm.
d) The dimensioned device drawings and any information labels that may be enclosed must be observed
during mounting.
e) Caution: the weight of the water heater including the weight of the water filling (the rated capacity)
must be taken into account for load-related and strength-related design of the device mounting surface
or selection of the mounting location.
Special suspensions: see thin-wall and/or ceiling suspension.
f) If a water heater is provided with enclosures (covering), installed in narrow, small rooms or in suspen-
ded ceilings and the like, it is absolutely important to check that the connecting side of the device
(water connections, electric connecting area or heating unit) remains freely accessible and no accumu-
lation of heat results. A free space of 500 mm must be available for de-installation of the heating flange.
A space of at least 50 mm must be kept free above the device for hanging it up on the wall rail.
g) Any electrochemical processes that may be possible (contact corrosion, e.g. copper – steel) must be
taken into account according to the rules of technology when selecting or arranging the order of insu-
lation material used on the part of the system (caution with mixed installations). We recommend the
installation of insulated screw fittings.
h) The device is equipped with a safety temperature limiter, which stops any further heating of the device
from a water temperature of max. 110 °C (EN 60335 -2-21; ÖVE-EW41, Part 2 (500) /1971). Therefore,
the connecting components (connecting pipes, safety valve combinations, etc.) must be selected in
such a way that they resist temperatures of 110 °C and any consequential damages are avoided in the
case of a possible malfunction of the temperature control.
i) Mounting and installation must be performed exclusively by licensed craftsmen.
