Item # J66S, Model J - Electric Booster Heater



For Use In Commercial Kitchens And Restaurants To Supply 180°F Sanitizing Rinse Water

A Long Lasting Booster Heater

The Hubbell J Model is the longest lasting booster heater available because it utilizes a heavy duty ASME Section VIII designed, constructed and stamped all stainless steel tank which does not require an internal tank lining. Other manufacturers use a non ASME steel tank with an internal lining which is easily eroded in high temperature water and eventually leaves the bare steel tank exposed to the corrosive effects of water. Once this occurs it is only a short time before a steel tank will begin to rust, leak, and need replacement. Hubbell did not stop at improving just the tank design. For improved appearance and longevity the Hubbell booster comes standard with a brushed stainless steel outer jacket and base which is impervious to the corrosive effects of water and looks great in your kitchen. The Hubbell booster is also equipped as standard with the advanced functionality of an electronic temperature controller to provide accurate, reliable and energy efficient operation while simplifying service work. The Hubbell booster’s closed cell foam insulation also improves operating efficiency and reduces the cost of operation. When you specify and install a Hubbell booster heater, you will have confidence in knowing that the owner will be provided with a long lasting and trouble-free source for 180°F water.

Models are also available in 380, 415, 440 and 575 volt. Please consult us for exact KW selection in these voltages.

Note:
Any and all optional accessories for a Hubbell booster heater must be called out in the written specifications.A model number in and of itself does not reflect any optional accessories selected.



Plumbing Notes
  1. Dielectric unions are recommended for installation in the inlet and outlet piping to prevent electrolysis.
  2. No check valve may be installed in the supply line to the booster.
  3. All shut off valves must be gate or ball valves - not globe valves.
  4. The brass pressure reducing valve with built-in bypass is adjustable from 25 to 75 psi.
  5. To minimize heat loss and maximize efficiency, hot water piping should be insulated.
