Installation of models A and SR
All four legs of the appliances are height-adjustable by rotation to 8 mm
and enable a stable horizontal installation.
Due to the extremely high temperature of 500°C the radiating temperature
is accordingly intense. Therefore never install the hot plates near
combustible walls made of timber, plexiglass, plastic etc. Even if only low
and medium-high temperatures are employed. lt must be assumed that
the highest temperature can be set, and that the unit can be left burning
overnight due to forgetfulness and not switching-off. A possible failure of
the automatic control must also be taken into consideration.
The distance from walls sensitive to heat or combustible must amount to a
minimum of 15 cm. lf this is not possible due to restrictions of space, a
corresponding insulation is necessary. For example, a high-grade steel
sheet between the heating plate and the wall arranged with a clearance to
each other, absorbs approx. 50 to 90% of the laterally radiated heat.
Such a vertically positioned sheet would also simultaneously serve as a
splashing protection on the occasion of a possible container fracture.
The manufacturer and retailer assume no liability of any kind for possibly
arising damage to property.
Do the following test yourself. Set the control to the maximum
temperature and heat for at least 1 hour. Then convince yourself of the
great ambient temperature. This intense heating also has the further
advantage of rapidly freing the unit from the arising smell and fume
formation, typical for new appliances.
Electrical connection
The 230 Volt unit is ready for connection. Only earthed connectors with
protective contact are permissible. The 400 Volt unit has a 5-pole cable,
whereby wire colours are yellow/green basically the protective conductor,
and blue basically the wire for the neutral conductor. The neutral
conductor is needed for the control voltage of the electronic (230 V). The
remaining three cores can be connected arbitrarily to the 400 V network,
as in contrast to, e.g. motors, no determined polarity is necessary.
Switching-on
The hot plates have a single button operation. The unit is switched on
and temperature is simultaneously set on the temperature scale by
rotating the knob clockwise. The red control lamp is illuminated.
Switching-off occurs by turning in an anti-clockwise direction until the zero
marking is reached. Heating and electronic are then switched-off on all
poles.
