INSTALLATION PLANNING
Fostoria’s metal-sheath infrared heaters are equipped with
heating elements that are manufactured using materials
with exceptional mechanical and thermal performance and
are built with precise process control to provide rugged and
reliable infrared performance in challenging environments.
It is our understanding that these precision characteristics
can change with time, specifically in environments with
high humidity or where mechanical damage can occur,
causing the internal electrical insulation to weaken. Use of
Fostoria’s GF-SK-1 ground fault sensing switch will
monitor this gradual change and interrupt power to the
heaters prior to any arc-fault type failures, thereby
protecting against a possible fire or burn hazard.
Any
installation where this is a concern must be protected by
using the GF-SK-1 switch.
FIRE HAZARD
BURN HAZARD
•
To prevent arcing type
faults, premature element
failure and potential fire
or burn hazard, use
Fostoria model GF-SK-1
ground fault switch with
these heaters.
•
Read and follow all
instructions provided for
proper installation of
heaters and GF-SK-1.
