2.1 Isolating Water Heater
To isolate the Water Heater from all facility energy sources (steam, water, electrical power),
proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect and Lock-Out/Tag-Out external AC power supplied to the Control Box and any
other devices connected to the Heater.
2. Using a voltmeter, check to ensure that all incoming voltage readings are zero Before
continuing.
3. If the Heater is equipped with a Pneumatic Control Valve Actuator, close the valve supplying
air inlet pressure to the Pneumatic Controller.
4. Close all stop valves in the Steam Inlet and Condensate Outlet lines. On water-to-water
systems, do not rely on the Boiler Water Out Check Valve to stop the flow of water.
5. On the water-side, close the stop valves in the following order:
(a) Hot water outlet line
(b) Recirculation line
(c) Cold water inlet line
6. Carefully open the Relief Valve located on the Top Head to relieve pressure in the Heater
Shell. Water should stop flowing from the valve within one minute. If water continues to flow
from the Relief Valve, one of the water stop valves is not securely closed.
2.2 Draining Water Heater
Allow the unit to cool sufficiently prior to draining the unit. When sufficiently cooled, drain as
follows:
1. After ensuring there is no pressure build-up in the Heater Shell (section. 2.1, step 6), block
open the Relief Valve in the Top Head to avoid creating a vacuum in the Heater Shell when
it is drained.
2. Open the Drain Ball Valve in the Bottom Head and allow the potable water in the Heater
Shell to drain completely. If the unit is a Water-to-Water Double-Wall Heater (WWDW-24,
WWDW-45 or WWDW-68), the Drain is located on the Shell and may either be plugged with
a 3/4” NPT Plug or equipped with a Ball Valve and additional drain piping. Remove Plug or
open Drain Ball Valve as applicable.
CAUTION
DO NOT DISCARD ANY OF THE REMOVED PARTS OR ASSEMBLIES
UNLESS IT IS SPECIFICALLY INDICATED THAT THEY WILL NO
LONGER BE USED. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ALL REQUIRED
ITEMS BE REMOVED AS INDICATED IN THE FOLLOWING STEPS
PRIOR TO PERFORMING ANY OF THEREPLACEMENT
PROCEDURES IN SECTION 3.
2.3 Removal of Hot Water Outlet Piping
Disconnect the union and any external piping connected to the flange in the hot water outlet
piping (located beyond the outside diameter of the Top Head).

2.4 Removal of Items Connected to Heater Shell
In order to install several new ECS components, the Flow Sensor and associated fittings/tubing
and the Cold Water Inlet Orifice Disc must be removed. Proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect any external piping connected to the Cold Water Inlet.
2. Disconnect the Flow Sensor and associated fittings/tubing and discard.
3. Take the ¼” NPT hex plug (9-22) from the kit and plug the side of the drain valve where
the Flow Sensor tubing was located.
4. Locate the Orifice Disc in the Cold Water Inlet.
5. Using a pair of pliers, disconnect the snap ring securing the Disc in the Inlet Nozzle.
6. Remove the clip and the Orifice Disc from the Inlet Nozzle and discard.

NOTE:
External power at 120 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz is required to operate
the circuitry contained in the
ECS
Control Box. Power connections
are made internally by routing the power wiring through the
cutout
provided on the right side of the Control
Box.
2.5.5 Wiring the ECS Control Box for the Circulator and Temperature Control
To wire the Circulation Pump and Thermocouple into the ECS control box, follow these steps:
1. Loosen the captive Phillips head screw on the right front portion of the Control Box (Figure
2- to open the hinged door.
2. Swing open the door and loosen the captive Phillips head screw at the top of the recessed
panel (Figure 2-8). Swing down the panel to access terminal block TB-2 (Figure 2-9).
3. Circulator Electrical connections: Observe all applicable codes and safety procedures
when connecting to power supply. The motor is impedance protected, and does not require
overload protection. Either colored wire from the pump’s capacitor box can be attached to
either colored wire from the control box power supply. There is no “hot” or “common” wire
leading from the capacitor box. Typical installation would be to attach the white wire to
the white (common) power supply wire and either the yellow or blue wire to the black (hot)
power supply wire. The pump cannot run backwards.

a. Label Connect To:
MIXED INLET TEMP THERMOCOUPLE 2-Pin Connector on
Thermocouple
8. Fill system with domestic tap water – The system must be filled before operating the
circulator. The bearings are water lubricated and should not be allowed to operate dry.
Filling the system will result in immediate lubrication of the bearings. It is always good
practice to flush a new system of foreign matter before starting the circulator.
9. Put the controller in manual and leave it set to the zero (0) position.
10. Operate the circulator for 5 minutes immediately after flushing the system to purge
remaining air from the bearing chamber.
11. Refer to Instruction No. HE-111 for start-up procedures.

installed. Upon completion of all upgrade procedures in Section 4, the ECS upgrade heater must
be thoroughly checked to ensure that all required external connections have been made to the
modified Heater. In addition, the ECS Control system adjustments must be made prior to placing
the Heater back into service.
3.1 Input and Output Water Heater Connections
The following items must be checked to ensure the proper connections have been made:
1. Drain Connection
Ensure that the side of the plugged Drain Ball Valve has been replaced and that
all external drain piping is reconnected.
2. Cold Water Inlet
Ensure that the Cold Water Inlet Flange is connected to the cold water inlet piping.
3. Steam Line
Ensure that the Steam supply line is connected to the inlet of the CXT-E Control Valve.
4. Condensate Line
Ensure it is connected to a nearby drain or condensate collection system.
5. Electrical Power
Ensure that AC power (110 to 240 volts) is connected to the ECS Control Box.
3.2 Adjustments
Prior to placing the unit into operation, the CXT-E Actuator, ECS Temperature Controller and ECS
Over-Temperature Switch must be set. The adjustment procedures for these items are provided in
Section 3 of Operation and Maintenance Manual HE-111. A copy of this manual is included in the
Upgrade Kit.
