Direct fired water heaters
 
Direct fired water heaters provide one of the most energy efficient methods of heating water available on the market today. low Cost Operation, consistent reliability of performance can be maintained during daily use with reduced heat recovery times due to the use of efficient burners, and high density boiler insulation which ensures minimum heat loss.
 
 
 
The ABS direct-fired gas water heater is the ultimate solution for low cost hot water production in large quantities, and provide an energy efficient and reliable method of providing hot water for commercial and industrial premises all year round. Suitable for applications such as sports clubs, recreational centers, restaurants, camping sites, sauna baths, gymnasiums, public houses and schools, they easily meet the requirements for high demand users.
 
 
  The principal of direct fired units comprises of a burner situated below a storage tank. The tank is made from heavy gauge steel, which has a ceramic fused glass lining and is fitted with sacrificial anode(s) which offer cathodic protection.

Gas water storage heaters provide a single source of localised hot water, which can be installed at the point of use, thus eliminating long pipe runs. They can be installed singly or as a multiple installation for greater storage capacity.

 
 
Special features include
 
  • Self contained water heating appliance.
  • Magnesium anode for long term tank protection.
  • Secondary return tapping.
  • Up to 800 litres storage
  • Factory fitted thermometer.
  • Flue spillage detector Piezo ignition.
 
Safety
 
Multifunctional gas valves with high limit cut-out, and an exhaust fume control device IOCF) on all models, prevents accidental gas and combustion fume leakage. CE approvals have been obtained on all models.
 
Quality
 

On the smaller models, the storage tank is vitreous enameled at 870°F and the larger models have a tank which is hot dip galvanised. The external jacket is plastic coated mild steel sheet. The larger models are fitted with probe type temperature gauges which accurately indicates the stored water temperature. The temperature gauge on the 150 and 200 litre models is of contact type.

 
Reliability
 
All heaters are tested and checked at several stages in the production run in order to eliminate production faults or functional defects. Cathodic protection is provided by an easily replaceable magnesium anode, preventing boiler corrosion and ensuring long life.
