limits, see type code and page 23 (Technical
data).
Installation
DANGER
Danger of death! Gases are generated during the
storage of slurry which remain partly dissolved in
the liquid. If the slurry is strongly agitated during
mixing and purging, poisonous, explosive gases
such as hydrogen sulphide and methane are re-
leased. If an ignition source is present, the released
gas can explode.
To avoid damage during operation, please observe
the following:
– Switch off the heater before mixing and purging
the slurry.
– Close the slide valves when storing slurry out-
side.
–
The fan for the air supply must not be part of a
closed pipe system.
– The space to be heated must be adequately
ventilated.
For mechanical extraction equipment: at least
10 m
3
/h of air per installed capacity.
In the case of natural ventilation, the structure
must have two apertures with a free opening
area of 60 x B in cm
2
. “B” is the installed capac-
ity in kW. Replacement of the full air volume per
hour is thus ensured.
– In the case of natural ventilation, the maximum
allowable total capacity of the heater is 1 kW
per 20 m
3
of volume.
– Respect the safety distance of the heater to
inflammable materials, see “Installation position”.
– Consult your fire insurance provider and/or local
fire protection engineer to assess the foresee-
able, general risk of fire.
– For cleaning, care and maintenance, note the
applicable national regulations and directives.
– No condensation permitted. Comply with ambi-
ent temperature, see page 23 (Technical data).
Installation position
▷
To ensure that the vane functions faultlessly, in-
stall the unit in the horizontal position.
▷
Note the safety distance to walls and inflam-
mable materials.

▷
Ensure sufficient free space around the device.
There must be no obstructions in front of the inlet
and outlet side of the heater.
▷
To avoid overheating, do not cover the electric
motor.
