Primarily the regulations of Annex VII of the Directive 2001/56/EC and Part
I and Annex 7 of the directive ECE R122 must be observed for the installa-
tion.
NOTE:
The specifications of this Directive are binding in the scope of the
Basic Directive EEC/70/156 and/or EC/2007/46 (for new vehicle
models from 29/04/2009) and should also be observed in countries
in which no special regulations exist.
See chapter 1.2, "Extract from directives 2001/56/EC Annex VII and
ECE R122 Part I and Annex 7" and chapter 1.3, "Extract from direc-
tives 2001/56/EC Annex IX and ECE R122 Annex 9".
IMPORTANT
Failure to follow the installation instructions and the notes contained
therein will lead to all liability being refused by Webasto. The same applies
if repairs are carried out incorrectly or with the use of parts other than gen-
uine spare parts. This will result in the invalidation of the type approval for
the heater and therefore of its
homologation / EC type licence
.
NOTE:
For vehicles with an EU permit, no entry in accordance with § 19 Sub-Sec-
tion 4 of Annex VIII b to the Road Traffic Act is required.
1.1.
Application of combustion heaters in vehicles for transport-
ing dangerous goods
Vehicles for the purpose of transporting dangerous goods will be type test-
ed in accordance with the standard ECE R105. The following measures are
derived for our combustion heaters:
• The electrical cable/wiring harness must be sufficiently dimensioned to
prevent overheating. The electrical cable/wiring harness must be suffi-
ciently insulated. All power circuits must be protected with fuses or au-
tomatic circuit-breakers.
• The cables must be securely fastened and routed so that they are suffi-
ciently protected against mechanical and thermal loading.
• The combustion heaters must be type-tested in accordance with the
standard ECE R122 (equivalent to EC/2001/56 in the version EC/2006/
119) and comply with the Appendix 9 – Additional regulations for ve-
hicles for transporting dangerous goods.
• The combustion heaters and their exhaust gas routing shall be de-
signed, located, protected or covered so as to prevent any unacceptable
risk of heating or ignition of the load.
• In the event of any leakage of the fuel line, the fuel shall drain to the
ground without coming into contact with hot parts of the vehicle or the
load;
• The exhaust system as well as the exhaust pipes shall be so directed or
protected to avoid any danger to the load through heating or ignition.
Parts of the exhaust system situated directly below the fuel tank shall
have a clearance of at least 100 mm or be protected by a thermal shield.
