Spec Sheet

Residential Power Direct Vent
Energy Saver Gas Water Heater
The PDX2 FVIR Defender Safety System
®
Models Feature:
■ Bradford White ICON System
™
—Intelligent gas control with spark to pilot
ignition system eliminates the constant burning pilot. This results in savings of
pilot gas during stand by periods (120 V.A.C.).
-- Enhanced Performance—Proprietary algorithms provide enhanced First Hour
Delivery ratings and tighter temperature differentials.
-- Advanced Temperature Control System—Microprocessor constantly
monitors and controls burner operation to maintain consistent and accurate
water temperature levels.
-- Intelligent Diagnostics—An exclusive green LED light prompts the installer
during start-up and provides ten different diagnostic codes to assist in
troubleshooting.
-- Separate Immersed Thermowell—High strength advanced polymer
composite thermowell provides isolation between electric temperature sensor
and surrounding water. No need to drain the tank when removing gas valve.
■ Compatible With Optional Accessory Packages—Performance Package,
Protection Package and Inlet Shut-Off Valve.
■ Closed Combustion Venting System—Power Direct Vent closed combustion
system utilizes external air for combustion and exhausts directly to the outside
through a separate two-pipe system. The air intake and exhaust vent are 3"
connections. The equivalent feet of intake venting cannot be greater than the
equivalent feet of exhaust venting.
■ Cast Aluminum Air Intake Boot—A cast molded air intake boot design provides
exceptional durability during installation and operation.
■ Horizontal and Vertical Venting—With 3" or 4" PVC, ABS, or CPVC (Maximum
equivalent vent length for each pipe on reverse side).
■ Optional Concentric Vent Kit Termination—3" termination fitting provides for
only one exit opening through a wall or roof. (Subtract 10ft. for intake pipe and
10ft. for exhaust pipe when calculating total vent length.)
■ Flammable Vapor Sensor—Electronic sensor prevents burner operation if
flammable vapors are detected. The sensor will also prevent operation if there is
ongoing flammable vapor burn inside the combustion chamber.
■ Factory Installed Hydrojet
®
Total Performance System—Cold water inlet
sediment reducing device helps prevent sediment build up in tank. Increases first
hour delivery of hot water while minimizing temperature build up in tank.
■ Vitraglas
®
Lining—Bradford White tanks are lined with an exclusively engineered
enamel formula that provides superior tank protection from the highly corrosive
effects of hot water. This formula (Vitraglas
®
) is fused to the steel surface by firing
at a temperature of over 1600°F (871ºC).
■ 2" Non-CFC Foam Insulation—Surrounds the tank surface, saving energy by
retarding loss of heat.
■ Water Connections— 3⁄4" NPT factory installed true dielectric fittings.
■ 3/4" NPT Side Connections.
■ Factory Installed Heat Traps—Design incorporates a flexible disk that reduces
heat loss in piping and eliminates the potential for noise generation.
■ Protective Magnesium Anode Rod.
■ T&P Relief Valve—Included.
■ Low Restriction Brass Drain Valve—Durable tamper proof design.
