DANGER

Risk of injury! Follow the respective safety
regulations upon employment at gas sta-
tions or other dangerous areas.

– With the HWE 860 you can heat water

using electric energy. Its use is sensible
everywhere, where the exhaust air of a
burner poses a problem.

– The temperature that can be reached

depends on the water volume that was
put through, so the feed capacity of the
used pump (median value see Specifi-
cations).

– The set temperature is controlled by a

thermostat. If the switch unit is in the
position "manual operation", the heater
is always on via the thermostat. By
switching to the position "automatic op-
eration", the operation readiness also
depends on a switch clock or an exter-
nal remote control.

– The appliance also serves as a provi-

sion container for the high-pressure
pump.

– The liquid softener prevents the calcifi-

cation of the heating spiral while operat-
ing with calciferous tap water It is dosed
into the boiler drop by drop. The meter-
ing is set to a medium value by the
manufacturer. This setting can be ad-
justed to local conditions by customer
service.

The temperature limiter switches off the
machine if the temperature regulator is de-
fective.

– The white container for the liquid sof-

tener is located on the boiler.

– If the white container is empty, the red

indicator lamp on the switch cabinet will
blink.
