monoBOIL Electric Water Boiler
The monoBOIL is a hot water boiler manufactured in Western Europe, meeting the highest standards of quality in both materials and production. It is designed for mobile applications in land and water travel vehicles or tiny houses.
For heating water, the monoBOIL uses an electric heating coil made of a corrosion-resistant special alloy. The heating element can be powered from the onboard supply at 12/24V or by connecting to the 230/120V mains or a sufficiently dimensioned inverter.
The water temperature at which the heating coil automatically switches off is pre-adjustable.
Flexible Mounting Options
The monoBOIL can be mounted on the floor, on the wall, or even on slanted surfaces. Two mounting clamps allow for flexible installation, as the boiler can rotate within the clamps thanks to its cylindrical shape. This makes it easy to find a suitable installation spot in any vehicle.
Built-in Safety Valve
If the system pressure becomes too high, a safety valve opens to prevent damage or leaks in the boiler and water system of the vehicle.
Worry-free in Winter
The safety valve features a lever that can be used to drain the boiler through a drainage hose (not included). This makes winterizing your system quick and easy at this point.
Available in Different Sizes
To meet different needs, the monoBOIL comes in various sizes. Simply choose the one that suits you best. Keep in mind: you can get much more hot shower water than the boiler’s capacity. The monoBOIL heats water up to 83°C, which is far too hot for showering. In this case, cold water must be mixed in, significantly increasing the amount of comfortably warm shower water.
Note: You will need a scald protection device or thermostatic mixer (not included, see item number TEX1764). Alternatively, you can pre-set the boiler’s shut-off temperature to, for example, 40 degrees. However, we strongly recommend using the thermostatic mixer for the reasons mentioned and to ensure double protection against excessively hot water.
monoBOIL for DC and AC Applications
The monoBOIL water heater is available for use in 12 or 24-volt DC systems, as well as for operation with an inverter or mains power at 230 or 120 volts.
No matter how you prefer to use your hot water boiler, you’ll find the right version here.
Hot Water Connection Kit
Caution: Both the hot water outlet directly on the boiler and the thermostatic mixer can become very hot (depending on the system configuration and settings). Standard (drinking) water hoses and plastic connectors cannot withstand such temperatures over long periods and can thermally deform, which can lead to leaks.
We therefore recommend the hot water connection kit for integrating the boiler into the water system. It includes, among other things, special silicone drinking water hoses (heat-resistant up to 150°C), matching clamps, and connectors. Learn more and order under item number TEX1178.
Looking for even more flexibility in heating water?
Check out the duoBOIL and combiBOIL water heaters. They can heat water not only electrically but also using warm air from the heater or via the engine’s cooling system while driving.
If you want to learn more about heating times (including other heating methods, such as via an air heater or cooling circuit integration with different boilers), take a look at our extensive magazine article on this topic.
Since the boiler's bracket can be rotated, wall, ceiling and floor mounting are possible.
If an inverter is present, you can feed the boiler more electrical power via a 230V heating element, which in turn heats the water faster.
In a vehicle, long standing times, changing water sources, heating and biofilm formation all come together. Controlled water care improves hygiene and protects the entire system. The service life of drinking water filters at the tap is extended by inhibiting bioactivity.
Chlorine-based products (e.g. Micropur Forte) may only be used strictly according to the manufacturer's dosage, in the cold water system and with a limited contact time. The system must then be flushed thoroughly.
The following are not permitted:
These applications can lead to irreversible damage.
Typical types of damage are:
This damage is not caused by a material defect, but by chemical misuse.
Different disinfectants should not be used simultaneously or alternately without flushing in between. This increases the chemical load and brings no hygienic benefit.
Aged or incorrect coolant primarily damages aluminum components and can impair heat transfer. The stainless steel heat exchanger is usually not the first component to be affected.
These notes apply to all our 316L stainless steel boilers, regardless of size or version.
Our boilers are made of high-quality 316L stainless steel (1.4404) and are designed for drinking water and hot water applications in vehicles. They are robot-welded and pickled and passivated inside and out to achieve a very high level of corrosion protection.
However, the service life of a stainless steel boiler depends not only on the material and the manufacturing, but largely on the way it is operated and on water care.
PERMITTED USE
Use of disinfectants suitable for drinking water according to the manufacturer's instructions
IMPROPER USE
LIABILITY NOTICE
Damage caused by chemical misuse, unsuitable disinfectants, overdosing, incorrect material pairings or deviation from this usage specification does not constitute proper use and can considerably shorten the service life of the boiler.
IN SHORT
Our boilers are designed for drinking water.Using unsuitable chemicals or incorrect disinfection methods can lead to material damage and does not count as proper use.
