What to do by gas leakage
When a gas leak is detected, immediately close the gas supply and electricity to the heater. Keep open flames
away. Do not use the heater anymore and inform other people that possibly will operate the heater. Contact an
authorised gas technician, gas installer or gas service agent to determine if the gas leakage can be repaired.
Never try to do gas repairs by yourself. Do not use the heater anymore until the problem is solved.
5. Electrical information
General
All electrical connections/installations shall be made in accordance with the national and/or local regulations
that are in force in the country of destination where the heater will be installed. Before doing maintenance or
installation work always disconnect the electricity to all the lines by removing or disconnecting the fuses from
the electrical system to the heaters.
A proper earth connection MUST be made to the heaters with an electronic ignition device (Ei) and/or with a
solenoid valve (S). Firstly for safety reasons and secondly the electric ignition device (Ei) will not operate
correctly and will give failures or will shut down. The Ei device is not phase sensitive. In case of an electrical
fault directly after installation of the heater concentrate first on earth continuity and resistance to earth. These
are the main reasons for failures while all heaters are operated for proper functioning before leaving the factory.
To maintain the IP65 rating make sure that the rubber seals between the ignition device and electric connector
and between the electric connector and electric wiring are in place. Turn the mounting screws and compression
nuts of the connectors firmly so no water can enter.
Fuses and switches are not supplied with the heater. The electric installation shall have a separate fuse for the
protection of the heaters only. The operation switches prior to the heaters shall be of a double pole type with
minimum contact separation of 3 mm. Make sure that always the live wire (or hot wire) of the electric supply is
used to switch the heaters on and off. The operating or control box, which is not delivered by the manufacturer
but by the installer, can be installed on any desired place and height, provided this is within reach of the user.
