The product may only be used as set out in
the assembly and operating instructions. The
guarantee is only valid if the product is used
in the manner intended and in accordance
with the instructions.
Application
Infrared halogen IH is the perfect choice
for exposed outdoor environments where
design is important, for example, balconies,
pavement cafés, etc. IH can also be used
as local heating in large premises such as
churches, industries and warehouses. IH is
available in two different designs. IHW gives
a comfortable heat in the occupied zone from
close range and also wider heat distribution.
IHF has more direct heat distribution and is
designed to be installed higher up. Infrared
halogen IH is energy efficient, as it is only
used when there is a heating requirement.
Protection class: IPX4
Positioning
The heaters must be placed so that they
enclose the area to be heated, see fig. 3. The
normal assembly height is 2–3 metres above
the ground/floor. A rule of thumb for infrared
halogen is that 600–800 W/m² increases the
experienced temperature by about 10 °C. The
output demand can be reduced if the area to
be heated is protected. If the area only has a
roof, at least 800 W/m² should be installed.
600 W/m² is sufficient if the area has three
walls. For enclosed areas, the output demand
must be calculated. Optimum comfort is
achieved if the heat is distributed from at
least two directions.
We recommend an installation height of
1.8 - 2.5 m for IHW which has wide heat
distribution and an installation height of 2.3
- 3.5 m for IHF which gives a focused heat
distribution.
Mounting
IH is mounted on the wall using the bracket.
The heater can also be mounted on e.g.
a parasol or a post, a suitable U-bolt (not
included) is used for this together with the
supplied console. Other alternatives are
possible, e.g. suspended from the ceiling.
The heater must be mounted in a horizontal
position in order to keep the lamp horizontal.
The heater can be directed straight out from
the wall or angled up to 45°.
For minimum measurements, see fig. 4.
1. Secure the bracket on the wall, see fig. 2.
Note that the wall bracket must not only be
fitted with the screws in the keyhole slots.
2. Remove the screws fixed to the unit's
attachment on delivery.
3. Hook the attachment on the bracket.
4. Lock in position with the screws.
Note that the unit must not be placed directly
under the permanent wall socket.
Electrical installation
IH is equipped with a 0.9 metre cord with
plug for connection to an earthed outlet
socket.
The connection cord must not rest against
the unit as the surface becomes hot or can
be hit by thermal radiation. Contact an
electrician if the cord needs to be changed.
Note that due to the high temperatures in
the heater, a cord of the type H05 SS-F 3G1
mmor the like should be used.
As the halogen lamp has a high starting
current the wall socket should be fuse
protected by a slow burn fuse.
In the event of uncertainty contact an
electrician.
