ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION (for certified electrician only)
Beware of the sharp edges of the stainless-steel mesh. Use a long-sleeved shirt
and protective gloves during the installation and once taking the heater out of
the cardboard box. The electric installation may only be administered by a
qualified electrician adhering to current regulations.
Installation of the heater
1. Choose the place for the heater according to the required safety distances. The installation must be
carried out in the place where the heater will be situated. The safety distances for Electric IKI 6 – 9
kW are measured from the heater's mesh frame outwards (Page 12: Safety distances). Negligence
to comply with the safety distances may cause fire hazard.
2. Remove the protective plastic cover from the heater.
3. See applicable wiring diagram for the right heater model to be installed (Page 11), ATTN! Heater
must be permanently installed by using seal tight conduit between the heater and the wall of the
sauna room (plugs are not allowed in the sauna room). All Wiring must be done by a licensed
electrician, who must follow wiring diagram provided and adhere to local regulations. Use proper
AWG rated wire size and use copper wire suitable for 194 °F (90 °C) within sauna walls. Make sure
that the connecting cable will not be exposed to thermal radiation or mechanical strain. If the
rubber cable running inside the wall of the sauna is above 1000 mm from the floor, it needs to
endure temperatures up to 170Celsius /338Fahrenheit. The use of PVC-insulated cable as a
connecting cable is prohibited due to thermal embrittlement. Use grounding terminals provided in
sauna heater and control unit to properly ground the equipment as per NEC and local regulations.
4. Remove the base plate from the underside of the heater by unscrewing the three screws
(Picture 1). Lead the five-pole electric cable to the connection strip inside the element box
according to the
Wiring diagram (page 11).
5. Once the heater is fully connected to the house cabling, measure that all the heating elements
function properly. If problems occur, contact the manufacturer's technical support or retailer .
ATTN! When making the final inspection of the installations, a “leakage” might be detected when
measuring insulation resistance. The reason for this is that the insulating material of the heating
elements has absorbed moisture from the air/ transportation. After 2 -3 times moisture will
disappear.
6. Close the base plate
(Picture 2)
.
7. Position the heater in the appropriate place. Check that the safety distances (Page 12) to
inflammable materials are adequate before piling the stones in.
