___ Heating Elements
Immersed type, 304 quality stainless steel or incoloy sheated stainless steel electric heating elements
with 6 8 9,5 mm diameter, MgO insulation, Cr-Ni material, U pipe. Available in various power rates,
either as 3Phase or Single Phase.
Incoloy sheated heating elements specially designed considering corrosive areas. This incoloy sheated
immersion heating elements are much more everlasting for areas with mildy water.
Min. Watt density for all heating elements is (7,75 11,63) Watt/cm2.
up
___Safety Thermostat
Provides tank protection via breaking electric circuit of the heaters unless tank water temperature level
passes over operating temperature value. Ask for technical confirmation if you need to change this factory
default setting.

___Power Steps Control

Total power is divided into 3 groups with the help of the switches placed on panel cover. Tank will heat
at full load if all three switches are on. You can control the heating power via turning some of the
switches off during summer time when there is no need for full capacity heating power
up
___24V.AC Reduced Command Circuit Voltage

Diameter and insulation values of command cables are lower than energy cables. This
disadvantage is being eliminated via using devices with low voltage.
up
___Human Life Protection System
(Residual Current Device / Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter)
Residual current devices are designed to prevent electrocution by detecting the leakage current, which
can be far smaller (typically 5-30 milliamperes) than the currents needed to operate conventional circuit
breakers or fuses (several amperes). Residual current devices are intended to operate within 25-40
milliseconds inorder to provide human life protection.
up
___Protection & Warning System Against Waterless Operation (Light)
This system stops the operation and starts warning the operator with light inorder to provide protection
for the heating elements incase the tank is empty or water level of the tank is low.
up
___Warning System Against Over Heating
Safety Thermostat will break the circuit incase the tank water temperature level will pass over the limits.
Heating will stop and warning system will warn the operator with light.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
DIWH Serie designed and constructed as a monolock heating system with its electric command
panel in order to heat fresh water.
This electric command panel is equipped with first quality electric components. It will be ready to
operate as soon as finalizing the end connections of the energy supply line. Internal electric
installation design of the panel provides easy access during maintenance, commissioning and
operation.
An authorized techician or operator can easily commission and operate the heater. User can adjust
and follow the temperature value with the help of digital panel. Also the operation of the heating
elements, waterless operation and over heating can be followed with the help of this unique
command panel.
DIWH Series heating capacity range is between 6KW - 30KW and production with different voltage
values is possible. This Serie provides instant hot water with safe operation for ground applications
as long with its special designed safety features like human life protection system. In addition to
DIWH Serie, DIWH-MP Serie provides hot water for marine and naval applications.

SIZING AND PRODUCT SELECTION GUIDE

DIWH Serie water heaters are instantaneous electric water heaters which provides hot water according to
demand. So you need a proportional amount of energy (KW) to heat the flow (liter/min) you need for
your application. It is important to know the value of the inlet and outlet water temperature while
specifying the hot water flow. Temperature difference TC is important in order to specify the flow
m and power KW parameters.
