FEATURES
1.1.1
Available range
Next-R gas unit heaters are available in three versions:
▶
with horizontal
fl
ow, with axial fan (Next-R series)
▶
with horizontal
fl
ow, ductables, with centrifugal fan (Next-R
C series)
▶
with vertical down
fl
ow (Next-R V series)
Choosing the correct
fl
ow direction
Due to characteristics and positioning of internal com-
ponents, Next-R V vertical down
fl
ow gas unit heaters
cannot be used for horizontal
fl
ow operation, and vice
versa, horizontal
fl
ow gas unit heaters cannot under any
circumstances be used for vertical down
fl
ow operation.
1.1.2
Operation
The Next-R series gas unit heater is an independent heating ap-
pliance with airtight combustion circuit and forced air draft.
It has been designed to be installed inside the room to be
heated.
The combustion circuit is room sealed and meets the require-
ments for type C appliances: combustion air supply and
fl
ue gas
exhaust discharge take place outdoors and are ensured by the
functioning of a blower inserted in the combustion circuit.
The appliance is also approved for type B for installations where
it is allowed to take the combustion air directly from the room
to be heated.
The operation of the gas unit heater is controlled by a control
device (not supplied).
The gas unit heater can operate on two burner power levels,
with constant fan speed.
Products of gas combustion (natural gas or LPG)
fl
ow internally
through the heat exchangers, which are invested externally by
the air current produced by the fan, delivering hot air
fl
ow into
the room.
The fan operates automatically only when it receives the ena-
bling signal, depending on the model, from the fan thermostat
or by the electronic board timer, i.e. with hot heat exchangers, in
order to avoid the introduction of cold air into the room, and it
will switch o
ff
with cold exchangers.
The air
fl
ow direction is adjustable vertically by means of the re-
volving louvres of the grille.
If heat exchangers overheat due to malfunction, a temperature
limit thermostat cuts o
ff
the supply to the gas valve, thus inter-
rupting fuel
fl
ow and turning o
ff
the burner.
A blower upline of the burner mixes the air and gas and expels
the combustion fumes.
In the event of obstructions in the intake or exhaust duct, or in
the event of malfunction of the blower, the gas valve stops, thus
also interrupting the
fl
ow of fuel to the burner.
In summer it is possible to operate the fan only in order to pro-
vide a pleasant air
fl
ow within the room.
