NOTICE! 

Property damage from the effects of weather 

with indoor installations.  

Install the storage cabinet only inside buildings! 

 

 

 

8.1.1 

Installation location 

Provision must be made for a minimum footprint of 70 cm x 55 cm 

(width x depth) at the installation location. The distance to the 

adjacent installations must be approx. 5 cm to the right and 

approx. 10 cm to the left. A clear space of approx. 120 cm deep is 

required in front of the device, since all installation and 

maintenance work is carried out via the front door. The screws for 

opening the storage cabinet on the left next to the front door must 

be accessible. 

A minimum clearance of 30 cm must be left above the storage 

cabinet. No objects may be placed on the top of the storage 

cabinet. The clearance between the wall and the rear of the 

cabinet must remain free to enable cooling air to escape from the 

device unhindered.  

A minimum of 30 m³ is recommended for the room in which 

VATRA element 3/6 is installed. A continuous air exchange must 

essentially be guaranteed, if necessary via forced ventilation, 

such as windows, air conditioning system, ventilation system or 

similar. The clearance to the ventilation system must be at least 

100 cm. 

 

The room temperature must always be between 5 °C and 
30 °C, ideally approx. 18 °C.  

 

Recommended: well-ventilated room without external 
heat sources.
