 Step 1 

Solve for the unknown using the formulas stated below.
Variables To Solve For:
1. KW Requirement:
   
GPM x  oFDT  x 0.1465 =   KW

2. Temperature Rise:
   
 KW x 6.824 ÷   GPM =  oFDT

3. Flow Rate:
   
KW x 6.824 ÷   oFDT =  GPM

 Step 2

Choose the CR model with the KW rating which meets the peak demand (GPM) of your system.

 Step 3

Choose the voltage and phase power supply available. Note the total amperage draw of the unit and verify availability.

Electrical

 KW X  1000
_______________  ÷ 1.73 = Amps 3 F
      Volts

Note:
Each branch circuit in the CR Model is rated at a maximum of 48 Amps and each circuit is typically operated as an independent temperature step.

 KW X  1000
_______________ = Amps 1 F
      Volts

Example:

Model CR225MT4 is 225 KW at 480 V 3 F.

          225 X  1000
          ______________ 469 ÷ 1.73 = 271 Amps Total
                480

271 ÷ 48 Amps max circuit rating= 5.6
Round up to 6 for the number of heating load temperature steps
