The CEMLINE Electric Water Heaters and Boilers have been completely wired during
assembly. Connecting the electric power supply to the unit consists simply of connecting
the correct voltage, phase, and amperage power leads to the terminal strip or circuit
breaker. The exact voltage, phase, and amperage requirements for the unit can be
determined from the rating plate affixed to the jacket of the unit, or from the Submittal
Sheet and Wiring Diagrams supplied with the unit.
Note: All CEMLINE Electric Water Heaters and Boilers require power and ground
wire suitable for 90 degrees (90°), Cu only.
Assure that the cold water inlet and hot / boiler water outlet valves are closed. All water
valves should be closed and remain closed throughout the installation process. Assure that
the power supply to the intended power source has been turned off.
Unlock and open the electronic control cabinet attached to the jacket of the unit. Locate
the terminal strip or circuit breaker within the cabinet and connect the power leads by
means of the solderless connectors. The exact location for the connection of the power
leads can be determined from the detailed Wiring Diagrams supplied with the unit.
Typical Wiring Diagrams are contained in Appendix A of this manual. If in doubt of the
exact location for the connections, contact CEMLINE CORPORATION for assistance.
Connect the proper size ground wire to the unit by means of the pressure connector
supplied with the unit. Before turning on the power supply, it is strongly suggested that
all wiring connections be checked to assure tightness. Close and lock the door of the
electronic control cabinet.
t Do not turn on the power supply until the tank is filled with water. The
heating elements in the unit will "burn out" if not completely covered with water
when power is supplied.
Piping the Relief Valve to Vent or Drain
t Do not install a shutoff valve between the relief valve and the vent or drain. Doing
so could cause serious injury or death if the pressure is released and the valve is
closed. This would cause excessive buildup of pressure in the tank which could
result in an explosion.
Electric Hot Water Heaters and Water Boilers
All CEMLINE Electric Water Heaters and Water Boilers are equipped with a
pressure or pressure and temperature activated relief valve for the tank. For most
units used to heat water, the relief valve should be piped to a suitable drain.
