The “1700 Series”
water heater provides hot water for galley
and shower. Dense foam
insulation provides
better and longer heat retention than
traditional fiberglass. The tank
itself is protected
by a 75 PSI T& P ( temperature and pressure) relief
valve. The cylindrical
design of the tank
enables it to withstand more pressure than a
cube shaped tank.
Heat exchanger
models can be connected to the engine
cooling system. This provides
the added
convenience of hot water when underway or
generator power is not available.
The innovative heat
exchanger is over seven feet in length and
is evenly coiled throughout the interior of the
tank, providing hot water
rapidly and
efficiently.
Raritan’s water
heaters use an ignition protected
thermostat. Although it is factory
set to 120°F, it is
adjustable from 110° to 160°F and has a
safety shut down limit of
190°F. All models
and sizes have the plumbing connections on the
same side to simplify
installation. Hot
and cold water connections are ľ" male NPT
(National Pipe Thread). Heat
exchanger
connections are ľ" female NPT.
