3. ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
The Petalo range consists of a 1200 W heater and an 1800 W heater.
s
For consumer use the heaters are fitted with high temperaure silicone rubber flexible cable (H05 RN-F) con-
forming to BS 6500.
s
Be careful to connect the heater to a supply line protected by 16A fuses not quick-acting type.
s Avoid to touch the metal parts.
s
The models for professional use, that are marked with a P in the code, do not have the power cord and the
switch. For professional installation, cabling of the same specification should be selected.
s
The product is in class I and IP55, wich is the protection rate for the units to be used even outdoor.
s For keeping the protection rate of the appliance, the connection of the appliance with the power supply must
be done by means of a minimum IP55 system, as per the standards HD 384 CENELEC for Europe, or interna-
tional IEC 60346-7-708 1988, and the standard AS/NZS 3000 (Australian wiring rules).
s
Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
4. LOCATION
The range of Petalo heaters has been designed to provide flexibility in positioning. Three different options can be
chosen:
s Wall mounting using the support provided . Before drilling holes into the wall for fixing the rawlplugs, en-
sure that it is solid and that there are no electrical cables or suchlike behind. Using a 5 mm drill bit, drill 2 holes
into the wall and fix the support using the supplied rawlplugs. In doing so, ensure that the slots in the support
are located at its lower end (Fig. 2 and Fig. 2-A), and the arrow on the label is turned up (Fig.5).
s Ceiling mounting with chains . Before drilling holes, ensure that the area of ceiling on which it is intended to
fix the appliance is solid. Fit the chains to the appliance as shown in Fig. 3.
s Post mounting . See wall mounting (Fig. 4).
s Use only the upright “Totem” that can be ordered as accessory (cod. 702).
s Ensure that the power cable cannot come into contact with the reflector of the appliance and does
not intrude into the area of light flux.
5. COMMISSIONING
s Switch on the heater (in the models that have the switch. Fig 1-A).
s
Ensure that the rays of the heater are directed towards the area it is wished to heat. If necessary, change the
angle of inclination by loosening the support screws. All users should be made aware of all aspects of opera-
tion and safety and these instructions should be retained for reference.
s In unoccupied premises it is recommended that the heating system is switched off and isolated from the
electrical supply.
6. MAINTENANCE
s Mo-El Petalo heaters contain no moving parts and therefore very little maintenance is required other than to
ensure that there is no excessive build-up of dust/dirt on the reflectors or emitters as this can cause overheat-
ing and premature emitter failure. To clean the appliance, wipe off with a damp cloth.
s The accumulation of limestone or incrustations reduces the life and the efficiency of the lamp; it is suggested
therefore to avoid the continued use in presence of water or salt fog. Eventual leavings of salt water will have
to be removed before the use, after having disconnected the appliance, by means of soak in sweet water.
7. EMITTER AND SILICON BUMPERS REPLACEMENT
The emitters used in the Petalo are robust and if knocks and shock vibrations are avoided, they will last for around
5000 hours. When changing the lamp, also the silicon bumpers connected with the lamp must be substituted.
They should be substituted even before if there are signs of aging. Due to the special sealing and anti-shock
design of the heater, the emitters are not intended to be user replaceable. Please ensure that all emitters are
replaced via the Mo-El service network.
