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.

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.
