YOU ARE BUYING ONE DC WATER HEATING ELEMENT
9 inch

48 VOLT 700 WATT 

with German engineered built-in adjustable thermostat

SkyMAX Wind and Solar

SkyMAX Wind and Solar

First, we start with solid brass base and copper

Then it gets nickel plated for long life.

Fits standard water heaters with a 1" NPT

Tube length 4 3/4"


Can be used direct with batteries, solar panels, hydroelectric generators, and as a wind turbine dump diversion load. Can also be used as a solar panel dump load. Can be used as an oil pre-heater for bio-diesel etc. Use for DIY solar batch water heaters as well. Make sure to use our #6 or #4 welding cable for long runs from your wind turbine, hydroelectric generator, solar panels, or battery setup.

Model features:
• High standard electric terminal screws zinc plated with rubber gasket 
• Ratings: (Ni-Chrome coils / High Wattage) 48 volt @ 700 watts 
• Thread-In Model (1" NPT bottom tap) 
• Built in adjustable thermostat allows you to bring temperature from 0 F to 190 deg F/30 C to 90 deg C 
• High standard power wires with ON/Off switch.  
• Nickel plated element for long life 

USES

  • Livestock water tank deicer (low amp draw means you won't drain your battery as fast)
  • For keeping dog, cat, and other domestic animals water from freezing 
  • Standard American water heater element replacement
  • Water preheating
  • Campers, Motor homes
  • Emergency hot water 
  • Portable commercial, industrial machines and equipment
  • Runs off your car battery for portable hot water anywhere
  • Direct wind and solar applications
  • CONCRETE MIXING TRUCKS 
  • and many, many more uses where heat or diversion loads are needed
  • DC water heating elements are much safer than 110 volt
  •  

    WIND TURBINE WATER HEATING

    Heat water directly using a wind turbine generator (with or without a battery bank). Wind turbine generators are used primarily for electricity generation. 

    The power used can be stored in a battery bank or connected to the mains supply using a suitable grid tie inverter.
    In very strong winds, and/or when the batteries are fully charged a wind turbine may generate more current than the batteries can handle.

    Therefore a dump load is often used to divert the extra energy to heat water so it is not wasted and so that the wind turbine does not spin so quickly that it is damaged.
    Diversion Load Water Heating

    Pictured above is a typical water heating element which can be
    screwed into an existing 1" NPT fitting.

    When used as a diversion (dump) load, such an element is connected to the batteries via a charge regulator.
    When the regulator detects that the batteries are fully charged, it diverts the generated electricity to the element which heats water.
