General information –
This instruction manual provides detailed coverage for the
Indirect Plate Water Heater (APW). Each APW is equipped
with an electronic control system specifically designed for
an electronic control valve. This control system and valve
combination can be used with all models and sizes of APW
water heaters. The APW is available in the following double-
wall heat exchanger models:
• Double-Wall Models
APW015DW, 030DW, 050DW, 070DW, 090DW,
105DW, and 120DW
A typical packaged APW water heater with a double-wall heat
exchanger is depicted on page 4.
Identical electronic control systems are used on all APW
models. This system contains a control box assembly which
includes all of the electronic circuitry for the electronic
control system. In addition, the electronic control system
includes several sensors and safety devices which provide
temperature and flow control information to the control box
circuitry. The additional devices included in the electronic
control are as follows:
• DHW Inlet Temperature Sensor (RTD)
• DHW Outlet Temperature Sensor (RTD)
• Over-Temperature Switch (With Safety Shutdown)
If desired, the
ModBus
communication option permits the
electronic control system to be externally controlled by an
Energy Management System (EMS), Building Automation
System (BAS), or computer supplied by other manufacturers.
