The lack of hot water causes some discomfort and does not allow for full hygienic or sanitary procedures. There are several ways to solve the problem, and the simplest option is considered to be a mixer or a flow device with an electric heater. Compact and economical devices have a fairly simple operating principle.:
- When the tap is opened, a relay is triggered that supplies electrical mains power to the heating element (TEN).
- Cold water passes through the heating element and heats up.
- When the tap is closed, the heating element automatically turns off.
The design is designed in such a way that it completely eliminates current breakdown on water and is considered completely safe for the user. The heating temperature can be adjusted (in some models) and depends on the speed or pressure of the liquid passing through the heater. According to the installation principle, there are two main types of flow heaters:
- Pressure pumps are installed in the pipeline and provide several discharge points.
- Pressure–free - they are connected or already installed in a faucet, shower, mixer and serve only one point.
- Such heaters are installed in household or office communications at the discretion of the owner of the premises and do not require special permits.
Latest generation devices
A flow—through water heater with a magnesium anode is a special device with a magnesium anode installed in the design scheme. It performs protective functions against the occurrence of electrochemical corrosion and prevents the formation of scale on the heating element (heating element).
The electrochemical protection process is performed continuously. The metal rod is gradually consumed (depending on the degree of contamination of the water), forming a protective coating on the inner surface of the tank. After the anode is completely used up, the protection stops. To avoid the formation of corrosion, it is replaced with a similar part.
You can get more complete information and get acquainted with the types of flow-through electric water heaters using the website of the supplier of this type of equipment. The names presented on the catalog pages are available and sold at affordable prices, with quality assurance in online format. The buyer chooses the payment method at his discretion.
