Application
IR is suitabe for total or supplementary
heating of premises with large volume and
high ceilings. It can also be used outdoors
for example on sport arena stands or to keep
loading bays dry and frostless.
Action
The infra-red heater heats up rapidly and
provides additonal heating input immediately
to the area.
Location
For point-heating, at least two infra-red
heaters are placed to ensure that heat is
provided both in front of and behind people
involved. The heaters must be mounted at
least 2 m above people´s heads.
Installation
Suspension brackets can be fitted directly to
the ceiling or wall. The mountings allow the
radiation to be varied 30° in any direction.
Note the permitted installation arrangements
and minimum distances shown on page 2.
In all installations the elements must be
horizontal. It is also possible to suspend the
heaters from cords(minimum Ø 3 mm).
Electrical installation
The apparatus must be permanently
connected. The installation must be carried
out by a qualified technician, and the
appropriate regulations must be followed.
A heat resistant connection cable that can
withstand a constant temperature of at least
90 °C, must be used when connecting the
heater. The connection box contains terminal
blocks for connecting cables with areas up to
16 mm². This makes it possible to connect
several heaters in parallel.
Start up (E)
When the unit is used for the first time or
after a long period of disuse, smoke or odour
may result from dust or dirt that has collected
on the element. This is completely normal
and disappears after a short time.
Maintenance
Note! When using for the first time or when
starting up after a long period of disuse, a
small amount of smoke and a slight odour
may occur temporarily, which is completely
normal. When an infra-red installation has
not been in use for some time, the elements
should be ”dried”. Switch on the heaters for
5-10 minutes and then allow them to cool.
The equipment will then be ready for use
again.
If the reflectors are dirty, they can be blast-
cleaned using compressed air or wiped clean
with a soft cloth.
Residual current circuit breaker (E)
When the installation is protected by means
of a residual current circuit breaker, which
trips when the appliance is connected,
this may be due to moisture in the heating
element. When an appliance containing a
heater element has not been used for a long
period or stored in a damp environment,
moisture can enter the element.
This should not be seen as a fault, but is
simply rectified by connecting the appliance
to the mains supply via a socket without a
safety cut-out, so that the moisture can be
eliminated from the element. The drying
time can vary from a few hours to a few days.
As a preventive measure, the unit should
occasionally be run for a short time when it is
not being used for extended periods of time.
