TEMPERATURE CONTROL

CONTROLLERS

The Rheem 874 and 876 series can be installed with Rheem controllers to enable the user to control the

temperature of the delivered water from the outlet of the water heater. There are two families of Rheem

controllers suitable for installation with this water heater. These are the standard controllers and the Deluxe

controllers.

Standard Controllers

There are three types of standard controller. They are the Kitchen controller (Rheem AU - Part 299850, NZ -

Part A299850), Bathroom 1 controller (Rheem AU - Part 299851, NZ - Part A299851) and the Bathroom 2

controller (Rheem AU - Part 299852, NZ - Part A299852). These part numbers include the controller cable

supplied with the controller.

The standard controllers are identified by a ‘K’ (Kitchen controller), ‘B1’ (Bathroom 1 controller) or ‘B2’

(Bathroom 2 controller) located on the front bottom left hand corner of the standard controller.

Deluxe Controllers

There are three types of Deluxe controller. They are the Kitchen Deluxe controller (Rheem AU - Part 299858,

NZ - Part A299861), Bathroom 1 Deluxe controller (Rheem AU - Part 299859, NZ - Part A299862) and the

Bathroom 2 Deluxe controller (Rheem AU - Part 299860, NZ - Part A299863). These part numbers include the

controller cable supplied with the controller.

The Deluxe controllers are identified by a ‘K’ (Kitchen Deluxe controller), ‘B1’ (Bathroom 1 Deluxe controller)

or ‘B2’ (Bathroom 2 Deluxe controller), located under the front panel, to the bottom left hand corner adjacent

to the BATH FILL VOLUME label.

The Deluxe controllers offer additional functions to the standard controllers. These are:

An assistance call function, which provides a voice prompt when pressed and will sound on all controllers.

This is useful should a family member require assistance when in the bathroom.

A Bath Fill function, which is designed to allow the water heater to deliver a selected volume of water at a

selected temperature.

Bath filling takes place when the hot tap is opened. When the set volume has been delivered, the water

flow from the water heater ceases.

Note: The bath level should be monitored periodically while this function is in use to avoid the possibility

of the bath overflowing. The Bath Fill function should also be used with caution until you are familiar with

its operation.

Warning: Baths should not be left unattended whenever young children are present.

Warning: Temperature controllers must not be fitted to this water heater (874 series) if it is installed as an

in-series gas booster with a solar water heater system because water at a temperature much higher than the

controller setting can be delivered. If a solar water heater is installed to an existing water heater installation,

then all controllers must be disconnected and removed.

Notes:

Where more than one controller is installed, the second or third controller must be of the same family.

A standard controller can only be installed with another standard controller(s) and a Deluxe controller can

only be installed with another Deluxe controller(s). A standard controller(s) and a Deluxe controller(s)

cannot be connected to the same water heater.

One, two or three controllers can be installed. Only one of each type of controller can be connected to the

water heater. Therefore, a maximum of three controllers only can be connected to each water heater.

A Bathroom 2 controller can only be installed if a Bathroom 1 controller is installed and a Bathroom 2

Deluxe controller can only be installed if a Bathroom 1 Deluxe controller is installed.

Other manufacturers’ controllers are not suitable to and cannot be installed with this water heater.

The installation of a Bathroom controller(s) only (i.e. no Kitchen controller) limits the temperature setting of the

water heater to a maximum of:

874 series 50°C

876 series 50°C

regardless of the preset outlet temperature setting of the water heater.

The installation of a Kitchen controller will allow a maximum temperature setting of:

874 series 60°C –AU 55°C –NZ

876 series 50°C

regardless of the preset outlet temperature setting of the water heater.

If there is no controller installed, the water heater defaults to the preset outlet temperature setting. This may

be up to:

874 series 75°C

876 series 50°C

Refer to “How Hot Should The Water Be?”.

On abuilding fitted with atemperature limiting device such as atempering valve and where an 874 series

water heater is installed without a separate untempered hot water line to the kitchen, laundry or other non-

ablution area, although the Kitchen controller will be able to display temperatures above 50°C and the water

leaving the water heater will be at the set temperature, the maximum water temperature which can be delivered

to the hot water outlets in these locations is determined by the temperature setting of the temperature limiting

device. This is usually 50°C.

On a building fitted with a temperature limiting device set to 50°C, to enable the delivery of water temperatures

above 50°C to the kitchen, laundry or other non-ablution area, separate untempered pipe work must be

installed from the water heater to the hot water outlets in these locations.
