MONKEY HOT WATER HEATER

dori — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 18:01:38 +0000

The new Monkey Heater unit is smaller and lighter than previous models, incorporating a number of features including detachable fuel tanks, that make fuel transfer a breeze. Standard on every system is a small, submersible water pump (eliminating pump-priming difficulties) that moves up to eleven gallons of water per minute. The pump comes with a 25-foot umbilical, while the heater unit includes an LED digital read-out for monitoring water temperature, with a range of up to 250 degrees Fahrenheit.

Heat is supplied by a diesel-fired burner capable of 350,000 BTU. A manual fuel pressure adjustment has been added that enables divers to maintain a constant water temperature when the system is in use. The variation in temperature is maintained at plus or minus one degree, a great improvement over older systems. The Monkey Heater system uses an adjustable high temperature shut-off to shut down automatically should the water temperature become too warm. In addition, it has a special flow switch that will shut the system down should the water supply be accidentally cut off. The entire electrical system is sealed and can be operated outdoors in moist environments.

Dimensions: 30-1/4 in. H × 26 in. W × 46 in. D (77 cm H x 66 cm W x 116 cm D)
Weight: 430 lbs (195 kg)

Mount (not required for operation but is useful in some applications)
Power Cable Assembly (item CEF2S16-xxx, where “-xxx” is the length in feet.)

Power Cable Assembly:

Model CEF2S16-xxx (xxx=feet long); includes standard cable connector, stainless steel cable locking sleeve (63A-003) and heavy-duty Hubbell plug installed, on 16/2 Aquaprene SO cable. Available in unbroken lengths up to 1,000 feet. The cables are made to order, so specify any cable length and/or special configurations. (Note: the plug is not included on lengths shorter than 20 feet.)

Note:

Due to electrical resistance inherent in any power cable, voltage line loss will occur over long cable lengths. This causes a marked decrease in light output in low-voltage lights. The BIRNS VTX will automatically compensates for cable line loss over any length of any type of cable. The VTX also incorporates a ground-fault circuit interrupter and a dual-line circuit breaker for the ultimate in diver safety and product performance.
