GENERAL  
WARNING: This heater is not intended for use in  
hazardous atmospheres where flammable vapors,  
gases, liquids or other combustible atmospheres  
are present as defined in the National Electrical  
Code. Failure to comply can result in explosion or  
fire.  
Depending upon the order specifications, the NWH-18 may or  
may not be factory equipped with an AR or other Chromalox  
thermostat. Such thermostats function to control outlet tempera-  
tures and to limit internal temperatures under abnormal flow con-  
ditions. These controls do not fail-safe.  
WARNING: Users should install adequate back-up  
controls and safety devices with their electric  
heating equipment. Where the consequences of  
failure may be severe, back-up controls are essen-  
tial. Although the safety of the installation is the  
responsibility of the user, Chromalox will be glad  
to make equipment recommendations.  
The NWH-18 series is a general-purpose water or water-based  
solution circulation heater intended for use indoors. It is designed  
for 150 psig at 550°F per ANSI standards.  
The 18 copper-sheathed tubular elements are centered in a 8”  
diameter galvanized steel heating chamber and welded to a  
removable galvanized steel flange. The assembly is surrounded  
by 3” insulation and sheet metal jacket.  
INSTALLATION  
WARNING: Hazard of Shock. Disconnect all power  
before installing heater.  
1. Vertical Mounting (Preferred) —  
Incorrect  
Correct  
When the heater is vertically mounted, the terminal housing  
will be at the top of the heater. The water inlet pipe will be  
located on the side near the bottom of the heater and the outlet  
pipe at the top.  
The axis of the chamber will be in a vertical position as in the  
photo above and as in Figure A.  
Figure A — Vertical Mounting  
Note: A drain pipe located at the bottom of the heater should  
be provided and enough room left, when mounting heater, to  
allow draining the heater.

MAINTENANCE  
1. WARNING: Hazard of Shock. Disconnect  
all power before servicing heater.  
2. Remove heating element assembly periodically to check  
heater sheath for scaling, corrosion or excessive oxidation.  
Correct operating conditions to minimize sheath deterioration.  
3. Periodically check temperature control and limit control oper-  
ation to insure accurate and safe process operation.  
4. Check all electrical connections periodically and retighten  
connections which may have loosened in service. Replace  
wire and wire terminals which show signs of oxidation which  
would interfere with establishment of reliable electrical con-  
nections.
