Flo-Rite-Temp Model 535

The differential pressure diaphragm within the mixing unit rapidly responds to a change in system demand and significantly reduces the lag times typically associated with feed back/modulating steam control valve systems.

The Flo-Rite-Temp Model 535 mixing unit’s diaphragm actuated design can be described as “failure safe” because in the event of a diaphragm failure the mixing unit will fail with a cold bias and will not allow hot water to exit the heat exchanger.

Capable of controlling outlet temperatures +/-4°F, this principal of operation offers the additional relevant benefit of reducing the waterborne bacterial content of the water during the overheating process. In addition, with no water storage requirement, Flo-Rite-Temp Model 535 water heaters are a sensible selection as a component of a broader system design initiative for Legionella risk reduction.

Accessible “non helical” admiralty brass straight tubes inside the carbon steel shell available mechanical cleaning and visual inspection. Non modulating constant steam pressure ensures condensate drainage and removes the potential for water hammer damage and corrosion. There is no steam control valve to maintain and typically no supplemental condensate return equipment required.
