Bosch Tronic 3000 Point-of-Use Electric Tankless Water Heaters

There are 5 different Bosch Tronic 3000 point of use electric tankless heaters, Models US12, US9, US7, US6 and the US3.  All models have different Kilowatt requirements and require specific breakers and wire gauge size.

Ultra compact and lightweight, these five point-of-use / under-sink tankless water heaters were designed to provide an endless supply of hot water for 1 kitchen and / or bathroom sink at a time in commercial and residential applications. Advantages include 99 % efficiency with minimal stand-by loss. Most models come equipped with high / low kW settings and universal horizontal / vertical mounting options.

The model Bosch Tronic 3000 US3 point of use electric tankless is the only unit that is 120V and is designed for low flow sinks in southern states where the incoming ground water is warmer so the temperature degree rise can be achieved by the 120V output where it will provide hotter water.  This unit is not recommended for the northern states where the incoming ground water is cooler as the unit only has the ability to use one setting as it only has one element inside the heating coil.

The model Bosch Tronic 3000 US6 point of use electric tankless is 277 volt, 6KW and gets hard wired in to a 25 amp breaker.  The US 6 is the direct replacement for the older Powerstream Pro RP2P.  The Bosch US 6 has a low/high switch that enables either 1 or 2 elements to be activated depending on the output temperature you are trying to achieve.  The US 6 is good for a point of use sink with lower flows. 

The model Bosch Tronic 3000 US7 point of use electric tankless is 240 volt, 7.2KW and gets hard wired in to a 30 amp breaker.  The US 7 is the direct replacement for the older Powerstream Pro RP7P.  The Bosch US 7 has a low/high switch that enables either 1 or 2 elements to be activated depending on the output temperature you are trying to achieve.  The US 7 is good for a point of use sink with lower flows. 

The model Bosch Tronic 3000 US9 point of use electric tankless is 240 volt, 9.5KW and gets hard wired in to a 40 amp Double Pole breaker.  The US9 is the direct replacement for the older Powerstream Pro RP1P.  The Bosch US 9 has a low/high switch that enables either 1 or 2 elements to be activated depending on the output temperature you are trying to achieve. The US 9 is good for a point of use sink/dishwasher or washing machine.

The model Bosch Tronic 3000 US12 point of use electric tankless is 240 volt, 12KW and gets hard wired in to a 50 amp Double Pole breaker.  The US12 is the direct replacement for the older Powerstream Pro RP12PT.  The US 12 is good for a point of use sink/dishwasher or washing machine.  The US 12 is thermostatically controlled.  This unit may also work for a low flow shower if installed in the southern states where the incoming ground water is warmer.

Bosch Tronic 5000 WH17 & WH27

Bosch Tronic 5000 WH 17 & WH27 Electric Tankless Water Heaters

Ideal for replacing your electric storage tank water heater. The Bosch Tronic 5000 WH17 & WH27 electric whole house tankless water heaters are compact and powerful and can be installed virtually anywhere inside the home. Advantages include endless hot water, reduced electricity costs and substantial space savings.

Designed to replace a 20 - 40 gallon electric tank. The Bosch Tronic WH17 &  Bosch Tronic WH27 electric tankless water heaters are built to last. They have Plastic Polymer Modules and brass fittings. Each heater module is protected by an electro-mechanical thermal cut-out. If the temperature of any of the heater modules gets too high (over 195 degrees), then the cut-out will trip and cut the power to that heater module. If the cut-out trips, it must be reset while the circuit breakers are off. If you are not comfortable or qualified to perform this task, consult the original installer or a licensed electrician. This cut-out will only trip in exceptional circumstances. These small electric tankless water heaters can be installed virtually anywhere in the home and, of course, produce an endless supply of hot water.

There are many changes in the new Bosch Tronic 5000 WH17 and the WH27 compared to the older models Powerstream Pro RP17PT and RP27PT.

The new improvements for the Bosch Tronic 5000 WH17 and the WH27are:

• The units overall height is shortened by 4 inches due to reconstruction and placement of the main PCB board in the bottom of the unit.  (WH17 PCB Board #8-738-701-732, WH27 PCB Board #8-738-701-738).
• The Heating element assembly modules inside the unit have been redesigned to change the flow of the water in the modules to a different angle so as to not allow the mineral deposits to build up on the elements.
• There has been new single triac and dual triac PCB boards attached to the top of the heating modules as to give the heater more sensibility and maintain a more consistant heat.  (Single Triac PCB #8-738-701-733, Dual Triac PCB #8-738-701-723).
• The Thermal Cutouts on the top of the heating modules have been redesigned to trip at a little lower temperature of 195 degrees F to keep the elements from being damaged and overheating and hurting the piping and modules.

The minimum activation rate required for the unit to activate. (Activation rates: WH17 = 0.6 GPM, WH27 = 0.8 GPM).

The WH17 & WH27 are designed for cold potable water only. These water heaters are not designed for preheated water or recirculation applications. Increase flow rate where ever possible if water is coming out too hot.

Verify incoming water supply is at least 30psi. For people on well systems, the recommended pressure range is 30-50psi.

Maximum flow rates for each unit are as follows. WH17 = 2.3gpm, WH27 = 3.5gpm.
