INSTALLATION AND SERVICE MANUAL

steam/hot water unit heaters

Inspection On Arrival

1.  Inspect unit upon arrival. In case of damage, report it 

immediately to transportation company and your local factory 

sales representative.

2.  Check rating plate on unit to verify that power supply meets 

available electric power at point of installation.

3.  Inspect unit received for conformance with description of 

product ordered (including specifications where applicable).

General Information

Installation and service instructions in this manual are applicable 

to the three types of steam/hot water unit heaters which should 

be installed in their proper applications for their most effective 

function as overhead heating units.
The copper coils are warranted for operation at steam or hot 

water pressures up to 150 lbs. per sq. in., and or temperatures 

up to 375°F, cupronickel tube units are warranted for operating 

pressures up to 250 PSI and operating temperatures up to 

400°F. Canadian Standards Association (CSA) requirements 

state that explosion-proof units may not be used with a 

fluid temperature in excess of 329°F and still maintain their 

explosion-proof rating, for national electric code ignition 

temperature rating T3B for grain dust.
Motors are designed for continuous duty. They can operate in a 

maximum ambient temperature of 104°F (40°C).
The unit heaters are listed by the Canadian Standards 

Association as certified and Canadian Registered heat exchangers 

CRN OH 9234.5C. *Does not apply to WVC/WPC 952.

Steam horizontal and vertical delivery unit heaters are available 

in both standard and low-outlet temperature models. Low outlet 

temperature models are recommended primarily for installation 

on heating systems with steam pressures of 30 to 150 PSI. 

When used at these steam pressures they provide lower outlet 

air temperatures for longer heat throw and, because of wider 

fin spacing, they are less susceptible to clogging in dusty 

atmospheres.
The model number of each unit heater indicates its rated Btu/Hr. 

capacity/1000 at 2 lbs. steam pressure and 60°F entering air 

temperature. For example an WTC 63 has an output of 63,000 

Btu/Hr. at 2 lbs. steam and 60°F entering air.

IMPORTANT

The use of this manual is specifically intended 

for a qualified installation and service agency.   

A qualified installation and service agency must 

perform all installation and service of these 

appliances.

CAUTION

Do not remove outlet fan guard from vertical 

type unit heaters.
