Baffle keyhole

Baffle tabs

Completed connection

Different models and inputs utilize specific baffle lengths. Remove all enclosed baffle sections from box 
and retain with applicable heater. Reference shipping label for proper baffle size.  

 

To assemble the baffles:

 

NOTE:

 Baffles may be inserted into the tube while being assembled.

Determine the number of baffles needed for your model number.  

Remove one 36 in. baffle section  

 

if heater is fitted with an elbow

 (P/N: E6) 

or U-bend

 (P/N: TF1B)

 accessory.

 

Orient the baffle tabs at a 90° angle to the baffle keyhole (see figure 3.19).

Insert one baffle tab into keyhole and slide completely to one side until both baffle tabs appear in 

 

the keyhole.

Adjust the tabs to the center of the keyhole and rotate the baffle 90 degrees to lock the baffle 

 

sections together.

Repeat this process with all remaining baffle sections to complete assembly.

Figure 3.19 

 Assembling the Baffles

Figure 3.20 

 Inserting the Baffles

To insert the baffles: 

Insert baffles with the keyhole end first.

Rotate baffle assembly so that it is in the 

vertical position

.

Slide baffle assembly into the last radiant tube section, furthest from the burner control box. 

 NOTE:

 Baffle assemblies longer than 10 ft. will continue to be fed into next tube section. 

When the    

 

heater is configured with a ‘U’ or ‘L’ shaped accessory fitting

 It may be necessary to cut the  

 

 

baffle in two sections. In this case, place as much baffle as possible downstream of the fitting and the   

 

remainder just before the fitting.

IMPORTANT:

 Baffle assembly 

must be flush with the end of 
the last tube section and in the 
vertical position.
