The Patented NASA Designed Flow Switch
The Kennedy Space Center
(KSC) Technology Programs & Commercialization Office of
the
NASA-KSC/State of Florida Technology Outreach Program provided
a solution to the flow switch problems inherent in all tankless
water heaters. A NASA engineer devised a free-flowing weight
system. Using this NASA designed
water flow switch technology, the S.E.T.S. Systems heater automatically
increases or decreases energy consumption based on the inlet
water temperature and demand for hot water. The NASA-designed
flow switch technology does not use a spring or any other mechanical
device. This flow switch uses a free-floating weight that varies
the rate of electrical contact as demand for hot water increases
or decreases. Extensive NASA testing of the flow switch demonstrated
that it works flawlessly. The revolutionary flow switch is unique
to the S.E.T.S. Systems style Tankless Water Heater.
This flow switch has
been so instrumental in the success of the SETS Tankless Water
Heater that it has been patented!
