THERMOSTATS
1- For best results, do not exceed mounting heights as per
table below :
Maximum recommended mounting height :
2 - 10 kW 2.4 m (8 ft)
15 - 30 kW 3.0 m (10 ft)
40 - 60 kW 4.5 m (15 ft)
2- Direct discharge air streams :
- Away from room occupants.
- Away from columns, posts, machinery and partitions.
- Parallel to outside walls.
- Along the windward side of buildings exposed
to prevailing winds.
3- Locate thermostats on interior partitions, walls or posts
(insulate from cold steel posts). Install thermostats away
from cold drafts, internal heat sources and from heater
discharge.
4- Small rooms require only one unit heater. In large rooms,
arrange multiple units to provide perimeter circulation as
illustrated in fi g. 1 and 2.
POWER SUPPLY CONNECTIONS
The power supply may be single or three phase as shown on
the nameplate. The wiring diagram is on the inside of the
terminal compartment cover. Wire heater in accordance with
local and national codes.
TEST
- To test the unit heater, temporarily set thermostat to
maximum
temperature.
- Make sure that the fan rotates in the correct direction;
airfl ow should be in the direction of the arrow such as
indicated on the fi g. 4.
WARNING
- Disconnect all power supplies before working on circuit.
- Do not heat air containing combustible materials.
- Mount heater out of reach.

OVERTEMPERATURE PROTECTION
The motor and the electric heating elements are protected
against overtemperature by automatic reset thermal
high-limits.
Cycling of either high-limit is an indication of abnormal ope-
ration and should be corrected at once.
LUBRIFICATION OF MOTOR
The motor includes sealed lubrifi cation-free bearings.
MAINTENANCE
Once a year, remove the dust accumulation inside the heater
using a vacuum cleaner or compressed air. Cleaning should be
done while the heater is disconnected from the supply circuit.
A qualifi ed technician should perform any other servicing.
