Operating Instructions and Owner’s Manual

SECTION 1

Introduction

Ener-Radiant ERXL models are low-cost, field assembled infrared heaters that are easy to install and require only minimal maintenance. They are designed to provide years of economical operation and trouble-free service.

Checking Shipment

Check the shipment against the Bill of Lading for shortages. Also, check for external damage to cartons. Note any shortages, and/ or external damage to cartons on the Bill of Lading in the presence of the delivery trucker. The delivery trucker should acknowledge any shortages or damage by initializing this “noted” Bill of Lading. Immediately report any claims for damaged material, or shortages that were not evident at the time of shipment, to the carrier and your ENERCO Factory Representative.

Installer Responsibility

All heaters and associated gas piping should be installed in accordance with applicable specifications and this installation made only by firms (or individuals) well qualified in this type of work. Consult local building inspectors, Fire Marshals or your local ENERCO Factory Representative for guidance.

Ener-Radiant ERXL heaters are installed on the basis of information given in a layout drawing, which together with the cited codes and regulations, comprise the basic information needed to complete the installation. The installer must furnish all needed material that is not furnished as standard equipment, and it is his responsibility to see that such materials, as well as the installation methods he uses result in a job that is workmanlike and in compliance with all applicable codes.

ENERCO Factory Representatives have had training and experience in the application of this equipment and can be called on for suggestions about installation which can save material and money.

SECTION 2

Planning

The following codes and instructions should be followed when planning the installation of the Ener-Radiant ERXL heater. In addition to these instructions, the warnings in (Section 1) must be carefully adhered to since improper installation may lead to property damage, injury, or death.

National Standards and Applicable Codes

Gas Codes: The type of gas appearing on the nameplate must be the type of gas used. Installation must comply with local codes and recommendations of the local gas company, and the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 – latest revision,

(same as NFPA Bulletin 54).

Clearance between the heater and its vent and adjacent combustible material (which is part of the building or its contents) shall be maintained to conform with the Standard for Installation of Gas Appliances and Gas Piping, NFPA-54 / ANSI Z223.1 – latest revision, National Fuel Gas Code.

Aircraft Hangers: Installation in aircraft hangers must be in accordance with the Standard for Aircraft Hangers, ANSI / NFPA-409 – latest revision.

Heaters in aircraft storage or service areas shall be installed at a height of 10 feet above the upper surface of wings or engine enclosures of the highest aircraft which may be housed in the hanger. (This should be measured from the bottom of the heater to the wing or engine enclosure, whichever is highest from the floor.)

In other sections of aircraft hangers, such as shops or offices, heaters must not be installed less than 8 feet above the floor.

Heaters installed in aircraft hangers shall be located so as not to be subject to damage by aircraft, cranes, moveable scaffolding or other objects.

Public Garages: Installations in garages must be made in accordance with the Standard for Parking Structures, NFPA-88A – latest revision or the Standard for Repair Garages, NFPA-88B – latest revision.

Heaters must not be installed less than 8 feet above the floor. Minimum clearances to combustibles must be maintained from vehicles parked below the heater.

Operating Instructions and Owner’s Manual

When installed over hoists, minimum clearances to combustibles must be maintained from the uppermost point on the hoist.

Electrical: The heater must be electrically grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI / NFPA-70 – latest revision. Wiring must conform to the most current National Electrical Code, local ordinances, and any special diagrams furnished.

Venting: The venting must be installed in accordance with NFPA-54 / ANSI Z223.1 – latest revision, National Fuel Gas Code. Partial information with regard to this code is provided in (Section 5) of this installation manual with regard to size and configurations for venting arrangements.

Any portion of flue pipe passing through a combustible wall must be dual insulated or have an approved thimble. Refer to

ANSI-Z223.1 – latest revision.

Hazardous

Locations: Where there is the possibility of exposure to combustible airborne material or vapor, consult the local Fire Marshal, the fire insurance carrier or other authorities for approval of the proposed installation.

Critical Considerations

Ener-Radiant ERXL is a suspended heater. Therefore, its stability, flexibility, and safety are very important. Before starting installation, be sure the system can meet the following requirements.

Maintain specified clearances to combustibles, and safe distance from the heatsensitive material, equipment and work stations.

Provide a suspension with vertical length of chain or swinging rod which has at least 2 inches of horizontal travel for each burner in a straight run. Be sure the suspension system is sufficiently flexible to accommodate thermal expansion which occurs as the system heats up (see Figure 5 on page 15).

Provide access to burners for servicing, preferable on both sides, above and behind the burner for removal.

Provide a minimum of 18 inches of clearance between burners and building walls. (Always observe minimum clearances to combustibles.)

Be sure the heater has a downward pitch of one-half inch per 20 feet away from the burner.

Provide signs in storage areas to specify maximum stacking height to maintain required clearances to combustibles.

Plan location supports (see Figure ?). Locate a support near all elbows.

Installation Procedure

Take maximum advantage of the building upper structure, beams, joists, purlins, etc., from which to suspend the heater. There is no unique sequence for installation of the tubing. On-site observation will usually reveal a logical sequence. Begin the installation at the most critical dimension. This could save time. Watch for swinging doors, overhead cranes, car lifts, etc. Reflectors and tubing can be installed as you move along. Carefully adjust system pitch at each position to level the heater. Pitch down one-half inch in 20 feet (away from burner).

Don’t Pressure test the gas line using high pressure (greater than ½ PSIG) without closing the high-pressure shutoff cocks. Failure to do so will result in damage to the burners.

DO Familiarize yourself with local and national codes.

Develop a planned procedure which will conserve material and labor on the job.

Check to see that all material and equipment is on the job before starting installation.

Allow for thermal expansion of the hot tube.

Install the gas connector only as shown in instructions (see Figure 17).

Have slip joints where required between reflectors to keep them from buckling or coming apart.

Provide 1 sq. inch of free air opening to each 1,000 BTU/hr. of heater input (but not less than 100 sq. inches) in enclosed spaces. One opening should be within 12 inches of the top and one within 12 inches of the bottom of the enclosure.

Warning:

Fire or explosion hazard

Can cause property damage, severe injury or death.

In all situations, clearances to combustibles must be maintained. Failure to observe clearances to combustibles may result in property damage, severe injury, or death.

Minimum clearances must be maintained from vehicles parked below the heater. Signs should be posted in storage areas to specify maximum stacking height to maintain required clearances to combustibles.

Caution should be used when running the system near combustible materials such as wood, paper, rubber, etc. Consideration should be given to partitions, storage racks, hoists, building construction, etc.

TABLE 1 gives minimum acceptable clearances to combustibles. Clearances as shown in TABLE 1 are not for use in four-sided enclosures.
