World-renowned water heater specially designed for the marine environment.
Provides the comfort and convenience of reliable hot water. The 1700 Series
water heaters provide hot water for galley and shower. The high recovery rate is
complemented by the foam insulation. The tank itself is protected by a 75 PSI
temperature and pressure relief valve. The tank is tested to withstand a burst
pressure of 300 PSI
Heat exchanger models can be connected to the engine cooling system. This
provides the added convenience of hot water when docked 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 that is factory
set to 120F but is adjustable from 110 to 160F and has a safety shut down limit
of 190F. All models and sizes have the plumbing connections on the same side to
simplify installation and are near the same location as our earlier models. Hot
and cold water connections are 3/4" male NPT (National Pipe Thread). Heat
exchanger connections are 3/4" female NPT
