5. SYSTEMS INCORPORATING 90 O BENDS AND 180 O ELBOWS
Page 4
The STR Series radiant tube heater can be
installed in configurations as illustrated in
FIG: 2 (below) with a maximum of two 90
o
or one 180 o elbow per heater. The use of
radiant elbows reduces the total maximum
vent allowable. See SECTION 9 (page 11):
Flue Venting.
Both the 90 o and 180 o elbows are shipped as
a kit with two end-plate hangers to close off
the reflector ends each side of the elbow (s).
The reflector must be secured with four
screws to each of the end-plate-hangers.
SEE FIG: 3 (PAGE 5) and FIG: 6 (PAGE 6).
