Rheem Electric Commercial Water Heater Leaflet

Rheem-Ruud Eclipse electric commercial water heaters are designed to
provide hot water where applications require moderate quantities. These
units are suited for a wide variety of applications such as retail stores, small
offices or any location where a moderate amount of hot water is required.

• Composite tank and high density

polyethylene dent and scratch
resistant jacket.

• Models are in two sizes with

capacity of 85 or 105 gallons in 
42 total variations.

• Input options are: 12.4, 18 or 

24 kW.

• Voltage options are: 208, 240, or

480 VAC in either single phase or
3-phase and 277 VAC in single
phase only.

• Element wattages are 3100, 

4500 or 6000 in each of the four
voltages. The elements are low
watt density design (46, 67, 90
watts/sq. in.) with stainless
(Inconel) sheath.

• The four Inconel elements are

spaced on the front along a
vertical line for easy access.

• The power control circuits use 2

surface mounted thermostats and
operate in two stages so that a
lower control thermostat is for the
lower two elements and an upper

control is for the upper two
elements. The lower element will
provide recovery for all needs and
the upper two will kick in addition-
ally for larger demands.

• 170° F maximum delivered

temperature.

• System Sentinel LED indicators

are provided for each element to
show power on.

• A switch is provided in the control

circuit for installation dry fire
protection. See label.

• A temperature and pressure relief

valve is installed on top of the unit.

• Water connections at the top of

the tank are 1" swivel nuts. A
nipple is installed on the outlet 
(1" x 3" long). The inlet has a
vacuum valve connected with 
a 1 x 1 x 3/4 tee and a 1" close
nipple to the swivel.

• 3/4" full flow drain valve.
• Standards approved to UL 1453

and UL/NSF 005.

• Efficiency – These models have been tested according to DOE test

procedures, and exceed the minimum energy factor requirements of
current ASHRAE Standards (Part of the Federally mandated Energy Policy
Act (EPact)). Also exceeds energy efficiency codes of all states including
California Energy Commission (CEC).

• Safety and Construction – These products are design certified by

Underwriters Laboratories (UL) to meet UL standard 1453 as electric
storage tank water heaters. All models are North Carolina and
Massachusetts Code compliant. Certified for a 150 PSI Maximum 
Working Pressure.
