ASet the 3-pole switch or circuit breaker to the
ON Position.
BPull out the Emergency Stop Button. Heater
will automatically perform a 6 second
discharge from the TepidGuard overshoot
purge system. Wait for purge cycle to complete.
DTest water temperature and stability at
outlet by viewing the display. Controller
displays (in red) the temperature of water
exiting the heater.
E
Deactivate the shower or eyewash. The
flow sensor will electrically open contacts
and remove power from the elements and
controller so that the display is blank and
bank lights are off. Power light stays on.
C
When flow rate reaches approximately 1.5gpm
(5.7lpm), the flow sensor recognizes this
condition and begins the heating process.
When the flow sensor activates:
• Green bank energized lights illuminate on the
front bezel verifying power supply connection to
the heating elements via the solid-state relays.
• Element load lights may be solid or flash
in unison as heating elements modulate
depending on the hot water demand.
• Digital temperature controller shows water
temperature. Additional programming is
not necessary.
Located on the panel are one (36-63kW)
or two (72kW-144kW) green ready lights.
When illuminated, the safety circuit is
engaged and ready for use.
Heaters installed in pump-and-well supplied
water systems may require an operating
pressure adjustment to a differential pressure
of approximately 10 psi. For example, if the
high limit pressure is 40 psi, adjust the low
limit pressure to 30 psi with the pressure
switch located on the supply pump.
Heater will not energize heating elements if the
inlet water temperature is equal to or greater than
the temperature set on the digital controller.
If the water flow exceeds maximum heating capacity of the heater, the temperature of water at the
outlet may be lower than the temperature selected on the controller. See below to determine maximum
temperature rise capabilities.
Ensure the enclosure door is closed prior to
performing operation test.

Output heating capacity is reduced if these heaters are installed on 415V, 400V or 380V 3-ph.
Contact the factory to supply this information. Satisfactory performance of the heater is dependent upon a specific
flow rate vs temperature rise capability. If the desired temperature is not achieved, please verify the following:
1. Circuit breaker is on and rated for the maximum power draw.
2. Heater is drawing the proper current for the supply voltage on all 3 phases.
3. All 3 phase indicator lights are lit (not flashing) indicating maximum power draw and maximum
amperage is being drawn.
4. Flow rate and temperature rise requirements are compatible with the heater specifications.
5. Verify there is no additional supply of cold water entering the line downstream of the heater.

TepidGuard™Flow Conditions
When a low flow condition (less than 15 gpm/56.8 lpm) occurs, such as operation of the eye/facewash, individual
elements are energized to supply water for the eye/facewash and/or drench hose. One set of PID values is selected
on the controller for accurate temperature control at low flow conditions.
When the heater detects high flow conditions (greater than 15 gpm/56.8 lpm), all elements are energized. A second
set of PID values is selected on the controller for accurate temperature control at high flow conditions.
When the heater shuts down or switches from high to a low flow condition, the purge valve opens and purges the
heater of latent (excess) heat. This anti-scald feature works both actively at the end of each shower or passively if
sitting in an environment that may exceed 95°F (35°C). This TepidGuard™ system ensures safe water temperatures
at both the eyewash and shower stations.
Product Options
AL3 & AL3-SL Temperature Alarms: The AL3 option provides dry contacts that open to signal flow >1.5 gpm
(5.7lpm) has activated the heater. The AL3-SL option provides these dry contacts and additionally activates a local
audible and visual alarm on the heater.
GF (Ground Fault): Detects electrical leakage from external sources to protect equipment, electronics, and the heat
exchanger from being damaged in the event of a power fault. After turning on water, then power, test ground fault:
1. Press GF Test button.
2. Watch for ground fault light to illuminate and Bank Ready light(s) to shut off. The Ground Fault system is active
and in working order.
3. Press the GF Reset button, hold for 2 seconds and release to reset ground fault.
NOTE: If a trip occurs under normal operation DO NOT RESET Ground Fault without evaluation and service.
NOTE: Normal state is Ground Fault light OFF, Bank Ready lights ON.
ENHT Freeze Protection (ENHT & ENHT30): ENHT offers protection to -20°F (-28°C). The ENHT30 offers protection to
-30°F (-34°C). Each level of protection utilizes the normal heater supply voltage. No additional dedicated circuit to the unit
is required during field installation. Freeze protection (ENHT option) includes an internally insulated NEMA 4/4X enclosure
and thermostatically controlled forced air heater to maintain internal temperatures above freezing. ENHT options also
include a connection point for DCS monitoring. In the event of a power interruption or ENHT system failure when internal
enclosure temperatures reach 40°F (4°C) or lower, the unit will notify a facilities control/monitoring system that the unit is
unable to maintain freeze protection. Regardless of state of power to the unit, this warning notifies maintenance personnel
and provides an opportunity to correct the condition before any damage occurs to the unit.
NOTICE! With this option, three phase power must be continuously applied to the heater for the internal
freeze protection heater to operate properly and provide protection. If three phase power cannot
be continuously applied, the heat exchanger must be completely drained of water and electrically
locked out or damage from freezing may occur. Use Start Up procedure to restart this equipment.
This option does not require a separate electrical circuit.
NOTICE! Failure to maintain power at all times may result in damage to the heater and void the warranty.
Please utilize the temperature sensor contacts (N.O.) that can provide a signal to a remote device,
DCS monitoring or BMS (Building Management System) signal. When temperature inside the
cabinet drops below 40°F (4°C) operation of the system should be verified.
EXP2CFPM (Continuous Flow Explosion Proof Purge System): Keltech’s EXP2CFPM option makes heaters
compliant for classified areas: Class I Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D, Temp Code: T5. The Purge System requires a
supply of clean instrument air or inert gas (provided by installer). This supply maintains a positive internal pressure
and prevents the enclosure from filling with flammable gasses, dusts or vapors from the ambient environment.
Complete installation provided in this manual.
FDS Fused Disconnect: Internal fused disconnect interlocks with enclosure door when energized, prohibiting access
to a live cabinet. Select the FDS option for an additional level of safety and convenience at the heater location.
HLW (ASME Certified Heat Exchanger): Available on SNA-63 and larger. The heat Exchanger is made of special
brass and certified by ASME inspector for quality of workmanship.
N4X (NEMA 4X): Corrosion resistant enclosure made of stainless steel and ideal for harsh environments.

Maintenance
Preventative maintenance is important for optimal performance of the heater. To ensure the heater works properly,
always keep the inside of the enclosure dry. Moisture inside an enclosure increases the humidity, which condenses
on cooler surfaces. This can cause electrical problems and reduce the efficiency of enclosure insulation. To prevent
problems perform the following:
• Verify the interior of the enclosure is dry.
• Verify there are no leaks in seals of enclosure and that in high humidity environments all enclosure egresses are
properly sealed.
• Ensure plugs are in place on back side of enclosure.
• Monitor Shower heater performance at each routine safety shower inspection.
• Verify the following lights illuminate with activation of the Shower or Eye/FaceWash:
• Green bank energized lights
• Digital display controller
• Red element load lights 1-4
• Green power light illuminated
• Verify that the heater activates the “TepidGuard” discharge port by purging water whenever the shower is deactivated. If
heater does not perform as expected, take appropriate corrective action by evaluating the cause and repair as necessary.
• Check seals monthly during temperatures above 32°F (0°C) and weekly during temperatures below 32°F(0°C).
Check internal freeze protection system(ENHT, ENHT30) prior to first seasonal freeze for proper performance. The
external heater and internal thermostat are factory set at 55°F(13°C). Check weekly during temperatures below
32°F (0°C). See Information in Product Options section for additional information on freeze protection.
• Bimetal manual reset safeties mounted to the heat exchangers may trip at temperatures below 32°F (0°C) on
heaters equipped with ENHT or ENHT30. The bimetal manual resets are set to trip at 100°F (38°C). Heat trace
installed on connected piping can heat water to temperatures above 100°F (38°C), causing the manual reset
safeties to trip. Reset bimetal manual safeties and lower heat trace temperature to below 100°F (38°C).
• All heaters require filtration of 150 microns or smaller to ensure proper operation.Y-strainers or additional filtration
should be verified and cleaned at least every 6 months or more often in areas where hard water sediment is
present in the water.
To clean the Y-Strainer:
1. Turn the power off at the circuit breaker panel.
2. Shut off the installer supplied cold water isolation valve to the heater.
3. Relieve pressure in the plumbing lines.
4. Position a bucket under the cold water inlet to catch any water that may still be in the pipe.
5. Loosen the plumbing connection on the Y-strainer to get to the screen.
6. Remove screen and clean out debris. Use a wire brush to clean smaller particles from the screen.
7. Once the screen is clean, put it back into the Y-strainer housing and secure the plumbing connection.
8. Before switching the power back on, bleed the air out of the lines by turning heater water supply back on and
the plumbing fixture or process farthest from the heater.
9. With the air purged, turn on all circuit breakers supplying the water heater.
• At the same time the Y-strainer or additional filtration is cleaned, it is a good practice to also check all valves
connected to the system. With no water flow through the heater, work both the inlet ball valves and the outlet gate
valves open and shut to break up any calcium deposits that may have formed from the valve being open for an
extended period of time. Power to the heater does not need to be turned off to do this.

Troubleshooting using the Flow Limit Control Board (FLCB)
Problem Solution
The heater does not work or works intermittently.
Check that the flow sensor located at the inlet is spinning
with water running. Check if in Low flow (> 1.5gpm/5.7lpm)
that the FLCB light is on. If in High flow (> 15gpm/56.8lpm)
both the low flow light and high flow lights will be
illuminated.
Check that water flow through the heater is adequate to
activate the flow sensor at 1.5gpm (5.7lpm).
Check that the heater is wired with the proper breaker and
wire size. Refer to Electrical Specifications table for proper
requirements.
Check that the unit is receiving voltage from all 3 phases
of the power source. A load voltage reading is also helpful.
Element Load Bank 1–2 or 3–4 is not energized. Check FLCB with corresponding light indicated:
Bank 1–2 on the front bezel = Bank 1 on the FLCB
Bank 3–4 on the front bezel = Bank 2 on the FLCB.
If the light is off and there is power on. Check if water
temperature is greater than 175˚F (79°C). Decrease water
temperatures and restart.
If the above steps do not solve the problem, some additional checks may be performed. Follow the
schematic to perform the following continuity checks:
Emergency stop switch.
Door guard.
High temperature bimetals (Manual Reset Safeties).
Optional ground fault breaker must be in the closed position for the unit to work.
All internal breakers must be in the ON position for the unit to work.
