switch appropriately rated for the load and supply voltage. A switched fused spur may also be used on existing ring main circuits where the
load current is less than 13A. In both cases, the switch must be double pole (disconnecting both live and neutral conductors) and form part
of the fixed wiring in the installation in accordance with applicable wiring regulations. The spur fuse should also be rated in accordance with
the appropriate table. In either case the switch used to operate the Pulsar must be readily accessible.
The cable used to connect to the existing wiring should be correctly rated solid core wiring cable. Please note that the use of flexible appliance
cable with stranded conductors for permanent wiring (except for the final connection between a cable outlet and the fixed equipment) is
prohibited by IEE wiring regulations. Where applicable, these regulations preclude the use of a 13A plug and socket for powering the Pulsar.
For the final connection to the Pulsar, only the flexible cable and cable entry supplied with the unit must be used. The cable must connect to
the supply in a suitable enclosure or cable outlet designed for that purpose. The cable outlet current carrying capacity must be greater than
the recommended fuse current rating given in Table 1.
Suitable conduit or mechanical protection must be used through the wall to protect the cable from mechanical damage within the wall. The
mounting position of the unit must ensure that any mechanical damage to the flexible cable is unlikely. If physical damage to the cable is
possible, suitable conduit protection must be provided. Fixed wiring must be protected.
Install heater so cable cannot make contact with the top surface of the heater. Any exposed flexible cable must have adequate clearance from
the heater to prevent scorching or damaging the cable.
The BROWN wire is to be connected to LIVE (‘L’), the BLUE wire to NEUTRAL (‘N’) and the GREEN/YELLOW wire to EARTH (‘E’).
MOUNTING POSITION:
The Pulsar must be located in a position to allow for proper and efficient use but one that ensures hot parts are not touched accidentally.
When mounted the Pulsar should be at a height at which it can not be touched when in operation.
The recommended height for mounting is 3.00m to 4.00m (118”-157.5”) between ground level and the lowest point of the heater.
The Herschel Pulsar MUST NOT be installed at a height of less than 3.00m (118”). Heater must not be located immediately below a socket
outlet. Joists, beams and rafters shall not be cut or notched to install the appliance.
The distance between the sides of the heater and the sides and any adjacent ceiling recessed heater shall not be less than four times the
minimum distance specified for the distance between the sides of the heater and any building element adjacent to it.
Consideration should be given to any temporary or occasional additions such as stages or platforms, and the height should be adjusted
accordingly. The Pulsar should be firmly and permanently attached to a solid surface with a minimum clearance of 0.60m (23.6”) from top
surface of heater and ceiling .
The identification mark and model reference should be visible after installation.
Note :
Mounting plate and supporting chain are not supplied with this heater. It is the installers responsibility to ensure that a suitable
bracket and chain capable of supporting the weight of the heater (28kg.) are used. Check that the mains supply is switched off, and then
provide the mains supply connection to the Pulsar using the specifications supplied.
