Core Specs
- Tube size: 2" diameter x 15" length (flange to flange).
- Element: 5.5 kW Incoloy flo‑thru heater element; outputs about 5.5 kW at 240 V and around 1.375 kW at 120 V.
- Voltage: 120 V or 230/240 V operation, depending on spa pack wiring and configuration.
- Connections: 2" slip plumbing with 2" split‑nut unions and tailpieces; unions typically measure closer to 3" across the internal threads.
- Sensors: Includes two Balboa M7 temperature/flow sensors (replacing Balboa 32016) mounted in the tube, eliminating the need for a separate pressure or flow switch.
- Construction: Stainless‑steel housing with Incoloy or upgraded titanium element on some versions, plus mounting studs for securing to the spa pack.
Wiring and Plug‑n‑Click Update
Newer G7512 heaters include factory‑installed wires from the element terminals to a Balboa “Plug‑n‑Click” heater cable that plugs directly into BP and updated VS boards. When retrofitting into older VS/EL packs that use copper heater straps, you remove the straps and install a matching heater receptacle cable to accept the plug; removing the factory plug from the heater terminals typically voids the heater warranty.
