INSTALLATION GUIDE/INSTALLATION PLAN
I n general: Installation must be performed in accordance with the ECE 2001/56 standard
This guide applies to STROCO fuel-burning heater type 35.02 M.
 Material and design of fuel hoses/pipes: TA max. -40°C/+120°C.
In case of replacement of hoses, use ONLY hoses from STROCO ApS, or hoses approved by
STROCO ApS. The heater’s warranty will be void if any other hoses are used. Leaky hoses and
joints lead to increased risk of fire.

Fuel hoses located on the outside of the vehicle must be shielded against damage. Electrical cables
must not be run next to fuel hoses.

Uninsulated exhaust pipes/hoses must be located at least 7.5 cm from flammable materials.
 The fuel-burning heater should be mounted where it is protected from water and spatter from the
vehicle’s wheels, and from impact or other damaging effects. It is very important to clean the sur-
rounding area thoroughly when servicing the unit, and to check all electrical connections and
plugs, greasing with acid-free grease. The area should be kept free of damp. Covers, casings etc,
must not be removed.

The heater must be positioned in an way that does not impede maintenance work on the heater and
the vehicle’s other components. If necessary, the heater must be placed in a separate box.
 Installation must be performed in such a way that heat impact from the vehicle’s engine and ex-
haust system does not damage the heater. Conversely, the vehicle’s components must be protected
against damage from the heater’s exhaust.

The water system which the heater will be connected to must be fitted with a pressure control valve
for safety.

The heater should be installed in as low a position as possible relative to the vehicle’s cooling/
heating system.
 If the heater is installed inside a casing, this must have an air intake opening of at least 100 cm².
(The air intake must not be blocked off). The casing must be made from a non-flammable material.
 Intake air for the heater must not come from rooms where there are people. The placement of the
intake must be such that exhaust gas from the vehicle does not mix with the intake air.
 The air intake must be placed and designed to avoid clogging by snow or dirt. The air intake must
be placed to keep the airflow around the vehicle from interfering with the pressure in the system.

The opening of the exhaust pipe must be placed so that:
1) Combustion is not notably affected by airflow around the vehicle.
2) There is no heat damage to adjacent vehicle components.
3) There is no risk of igniting dry grass etc.

The exhaust pipe must be designed to work with local exhaust ventilation, although not directly
connected, as this can affect combustion.

The vehicle must have safety measures to ensure that no exhaust ends up in rooms where there are
people.
