Installation position
The water heater must be installed outside the passenger compartment.
The heaters are preferably installed in the engine compartment, in areas
of the front fender where they are protected from splashing water or on
the splashboard.
The heaters must be installed as low as possible to permit automatic
bleeding of the heater and circulation pump. This is particularly
important as the circulation pump is not self-priming.
IMPORTANT:
The openings of the water ports must not point downwards in any
installation position.
IMPORTANT:
The heaters must not be installed:
– in the immediate vicinity of or above hot parts
– in areas directly exposed to splashing water from the wheels
– below the fording line of the vehicle
– The statutory regulations governing installation must be adhered to
(see page 1)
– If the Thermo 50 is installed in hazchem vehicles, then not only the
requirements of the motor vehicle construction and use regulations
but also the provisions of the ADR (Accord européen relatif au
transport international des marchandises dangereuses par route)
must be complied with
– If the water heater is to be operated in a separately installed heating
system, the system must be fitted with a max. 2.5 bar pressure relief
valve and, prior to installation, an installation planning report must
always be submitted to Webasto for approval.
