COMMERCIAL
ELECTRIC WATER HEATERS
ADVANCED ELECTRONIC CONTROL
• A. O. Smith’s new proprietary electronic water
heater control provides precise + or – 1°
temperature control that is ideal for industrial
and food service applications where exact
temperatures are needed.
• The Operating Set Point is adjustable from
90°F/42°C to 190°F/88°C. The factory setting
is 120°F/49°C.
• Approved for 180°F/82°C sanitizing
applications.
PLAIN ENGLISH TEXT
• Animated icons display detailed operational
and diagnostic information. Fault or Alert
messages appear if an operational issue
occurs.
ELEMENT SENSING
• Each element is constantly monitored and
current on/off state is displayed, any element
failure is reported and its exact location is
shown, eliminates a need for field testing of
elements.
LOW WATER CUT OFF
• Factory standard on board low water cutoff
uses a remote electric immersion type probe
to prevent energizing of the elements in the
event of low water condition and eliminates
accidental dry firing.
SEQUENCING
• Units with multiple element contactors
are sequenced on with one-second delay
between stages. Prevents high amp electrical
loads from hitting the electric system all at
once and provides a smoother operating unit.
Adjustable modulating mode is optional see
options.
NIGHT SETBACK OPERATION
• Control system automatically lowers the
operating set point by a user defined value
during setback periods. Seven-day clock may
be programmed for night set back and or
weekend shutdown to reduce operating cost
and save energy.

HEAVY DUTY COMMERCIAL ELECTRIC WATER HEATERS
BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
• BACnet or Modbus compatible with optional
ICC Gateway.
• Call 1.888.WATER02 for more information.
POWERED ANODE
• The DSE models use a unique combination
of a conventional sacrificial anode and an
adaptive powered anode. The powered
anode is self-adjusting to water conditions,
does not require maintenance and provides
longer-lasting tank protection in hard to
reach areas. This multi-anode system provides
superior anodic protection to hidden surfaces
of the tank not protected in conventional
commercial electric water heaters.
INCOLOY IMMERSION HEATERS
• Heavy-duty elements provide excellent
protection against oxidation and scaling.
Input ranges from 3kW to 90kW available
(see accompanying chart). Rugged, industrial
grade, elements.
FOAM INSULATED
• All models meet or exceed the thermal
efficiency and/or standby loss requirements
of the U. S. Department of Energy and
current edition ASHRAE/IES 90.1.
GLASSLINED TANK
• A. O. Smith’s PermaGlas
®
coating provides
truly superior protection against corrosion
and is permanently bonded to all inner tank
surfaces at 1600°F.
ASME TANK CONSTRUCTION
• 160 psi working pressure
