LRP and LK WARM AIR HEATER
CAUTIONS
Special attention must be paid to the condensate drain; an
incorrectly installed draining system, in fact, could jeopardize
the correct operation of the appliance.
The main factors to be taken into account are:
•
risk of condensate build-up inside the heat exchanger;
•
risk of condensate water freezing in the pipes.
During normal heater operation, condensate water must not
be allowed to accumulate within the heat exchanger. When
installing the heater, special attention must be paid to make sure
it is perfectly level in order to maintain the typical inclination of
the tube bundle.
Additional WARNINGS
•
For the condensate drain pipe linear sections, provide for
a slope of min. 1%, i.e. 1 cm for each metre (otherwise
provide for a booster pump);
•
if necessary, install the condensate neutralisation kit in the
heated rooms, near the condensate drain fitting of the heater,
to prevent condensate water from freezing inside the tray;
•
do not drain the condensate in pipes made with materials
incompatible with the condensate acidity: risk of corrosion;
•
draining condensate into the ground, in a neutralising
sump, is generally prohibited, but permitted in the case of
isolated settlements, installations or buildings, provided
that it complies with regional regulations.
ATTENTION: Heater condensate drain and disposal must
be carried out in compliance with current technical stand-
ards and regulations in force in the installation country.
