The Atmospheric Vent FVIR Defender Safety System
®
Models Feature:
■ Bradford White ICON System
™
*—Intelligent gas control with proven millivolt
powered technology and built-in piezo igniter. A standard, off the shelf
thermopile converts heat energy from the pilot flame into electrical energy to
operate the gas valve and microprocessor. No need for external electricity.
-- Enhanced Performance—Proprietary algorithms provide enhanced First
Hour Delivery ratings and tighter temperature differentials.
-- Advanced Temperature Control System—Microprocessor constantly
monitors and controls burner operation to maintain consistent and accurate
water temperature levels.
-- Intelligent Diagnostics—An exclusive green LED light prompts the installer
during start-up and provides ten different diagnostic codes to assist in
troubleshooting.
-- Pilot On Indication—Flashing green LED provides positive indication that
pilot is on.
-- Separate Immersed Thermowell—High-strength advanced polymer
composite thermowell provides isolation between electric temperature sensor
and surrounding water. No need to drain the tank when removing gas valve.
■ Advanced ScreenLok
®
Technology Flame Arrestor Design—Flame arrestor
is designed to prevent ignition of flammable vapor outside of the water heater.
■ Resettable Thermal Switch—Proven and reliable bimetallic switch prevents
burner and pilot operation in case of ongoing flammable vapor burn inside of the
combustion chamber or restricted air flow.
■ Maintenance-Free—No regular cleaning of air inlet openings or flame arrestor
is required under normal conditions.
■ Sight Window—Offers a view into the combustion chamber to observe the
operation of the pilot and burner.
■ Factory-Installed Hydrojet
®
Total Performance System—Sediment reducing
device that also increases first hour delivery of hot water while minimizing
temperature build-up in tank.
■ Vitraglas
®
Lining—An exclusively engineered enamel formula that provides
superior tank protection from the highly corrosive effects of hot water. This
formula (Vitraglas
®
) is fused to the steel surface by firing at a temperature of over
1600°F (871°C).
■ Insulation System—Non-CFC foam covers the sides and top of the tank,
reducing heat loss. This results in less energy consumption, improved
efficiencies, and jacket rigidity.
■ Pedestal Base.
■ Water Connections—3⁄4" NPT factory installed true dielectric fittings.
■ Factory-Installed Heat Traps.
■ Protective Magnesium Anode Rod.
■ 3x4 “Snap Lock” Draft Diverter—Allows either 3" or 4" vent connections with
inputs of 40,000 BTU/Hr. or less. Over 40,000 BTU/Hr. has the 4" “Snap Lock”
Draft Diverter.
■ T&P Relief Valve—Installed.
■ Low Restrictive Brass Drain Valve—Durable tamper proof design.
■ NOx Emissions – Less than 40 ng/J.
