SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY
• To install the heater, as well as the gas and electrical supplies, in accordance with applicable specifications and codes. Roberts-Gordon Europe Limited recom­mends the installer contact a local Building Inspector or Fire Marshal for guidance.
• To use the information given in a layout drawing and in the manual together with the cited codes and regulations to perform the installation.
• To install the heater in accordance with the clearances to combustibles.
• To furnish all needed materials not furnished as standard equipment.
• To plan location of supports.
• To provide access to burners for servicing on all sides, for burner removal.
• To provide the owner with a copy of this Installation, Operation and Service Manual.
• To never use heater as support for ladder or other access equipment and never hang or suspend anything from heater.
• To ensure there is adequate air circulation around the heater and to supply air for combustion, ventilation and distribution in accordance with local codes.
• To safely and adequately install heater using materi­als with a minimal working load of 33 kg.
• To ensure the heater is placed in an approved application.
2.1 Low Level User Instructions
In all situations, clearances to combustibles must be maintained. Signs should be posted in storage areas to specify the maximum stacking height of items placed below heater to maintain required clearances to combustibles. Minimum clearances must be maintained from vehicles parked below the heater. 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.
A laminated wall tag is available for the heater as a permanent reminder of the safety instructions and the importance of the required clearances to combustibles. Please contact Roberts-Gordon Europe Limited or your ROBERTS GORDON
®
independent distributor to obtain the wall tag. Affix the tag by peeling off the backing of the adhesive strips on the rear surface and position the tag on a wall near the heater (e.g. thermostat).
A copy of the wall tag (P/N 91037912) is illustrated on the back cover. This copy of the wall tag can be affixed on the wall near the heater. Know your model number and installed configuration. Model number and installed configuration are found on the burner and in the Installation, Operation and Service Manual. Write the largest clearance dimensions with permanent ink according to your model number and configuration in the open spaces on the tag.
2.2 Corrosive Chemicals
Roberts-Gordon Europe Limited cannot be responsible for ensuring that all appropriate safety measures are undertaken prior to installation; this is entirely the responsibility of the installer. It is essential that the contractor, the sub-contractor, or the owner identifies the presence of combustible materials, corrosive chemicals or halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere in the premises.
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical compounds characterized by the presence of halogen elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These com­pounds are frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning agents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the air supply of the burner, the lifespan of the heater compo­nents will be greatly reduced. An outside air supply must be provided to the burners whenever the presence of these compounds is suspected. Warranty will be invalid if the heater is exposed to halogenated hydrocarbons.
2.3 National Standards and Applicable Codes
All appliances must be installed in accordance with the latest revision of the applicable standards and national codes. This refers also to the electric, gas and venting installation. Note: Additional standards for installations in Public Garages, Aircraft Hangars, etc. may be applicable.
The heater must not be operated in environmental temperatures below 0° C.
CAUTION
Product Damage Hazard
Do not use heater in area containing corrosive chemicals.
Refer to appropriate Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS).
Failure to follow these instructions can result in product damage.

SECTION 3: CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
3.1 Required Clearances to Combustibles
Clearances are the required distances that combustible objects must be away from the heater to prevent fire hazards. Caution should be used when running the system near combustibles. Combustibles are materials that may catch on fire and include common items such as
wood, paper, rubber, fabric, etc. Maintain clearances to combustibles at all times for safety.
Clearances for all heater models are located on Page 6, Figure 3 through Page 9, Figure 16 in this manual. Check
the clearances on each burner for the model heater being installed to make sure the product is suitable for your application and the clearances are maintained. Read and follow the safety guidelines below:
• Keep petrol or other combustible materials including flammable objects, liquids, dust or vapours away from this heater or any other appliance.
• Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of this appliance.
• The stated clearances to combustibles represents a surface temperature of 50° C (90° F) above room temperature. Building materials with a low heat toler- ance (such as plastics, vinyl siding, canvas, tri-ply, etc) may be subject to degradation at lower tempera­tures. It is the installer’s responsibility to assure that adjacent materials are protected from degradation.
• Maintain clearances from heat sensitive equipment and workstations.
• Maintain clearances from vehicles parked below the heater.
• Maintain clearances from swinging and overhead doors, overhead cranes, vehicle lifts, partitions, storage racks, hoists, building construction, etc.
• In locations used for the storage of combustible mate­rials, signs must be posted to specify the maximum permissible stacking height to maintain required clearances from the heater to the combustibles. Signs must be posted adjacent to the heater thermostat. In the absence of a thermostat, signs must be posted in a conspicuous location.
• Consult local Building Inspector, Fire Insurance Carrier or other authorities for approval of proposed installation when there is a possibility of exposure to combustible airborne materials or vapours.
• Hang heater in accordance to the minimum suspension requirements on Page 11, Section 5.
• If the radiant tubes must pass through the building structure, be sure that adequate sleeving and fire stop is installed to prevent scorching and/or fire hazard.
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Keep all flammable objects, liquids and vapors the minimum required clearances to combustibles away from heater.
Some objects will catch fire or explode when placed close to heater.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, injury or property damage.

Step 6.6.1 Reflector, U-clip and Reflector Support Installation
The pictorial drawings of the heater construction in Section 6 are schematic only and provide a general guideline of where hangers, reflector supports and u-clips are to be installed.
To ensure proper expansion and contraction movement of the reflectors, a combination of u-clips and reflector
supports are used. The positioning of reflector supports and u-clips depend on the individual installation. Use either pop rivets or sheet metal screws instead of u-clips when installing end caps and joint pieces in areas where impact and high wind may be a factor. The following rules must be observed:

SECTION 12: GAS PIPING
It is important that the gas supply pipe and electrical connections do not support any of the heater’s weight.
Installation pipes should be fitted in accordance with National Standards. Pipe work from the meter to the heater(s) must be of adequate size. Pipes of smaller size than the heater inlet gas connection should not be used.
Install the gas hose as shown on Page 53, Figure 32. The gas hose accommodates expansion of the heating system and allows for easy installation and service of the burner. Before connecting the burners to the supply system, verify that all high pressure testing of the gas piping has been completed.
There is an expansion of the tube with each firing cycle. This will cause the burner to move with respect to the gas hose. This can cause a gas leak resulting in an unsafe condition if the gas connection is not made in strict accordance with Figu re 32.
Meter and service must be large enough to handle all the burners being installed plus any other connected load. The gas hose which feeds the system must be large enough to supply the required gas with a maximum pressure drop of 13 mm wc. When gas piping is not included in the layout drawing, the local gas supplier will usually help in planning the gas piping.
IMPORTANT - the complete installation must be tested for gas soundness and be purged in accordance with local and national codes.
• Check the pipe and tubing ends for leaks before placing heating equipment into service. When checking for gas leaks, use a soap and water solution; never use an open flame.
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Tighten gas line fittings to connect gas supply according to Figure 32.
Flex gas line can crack when twisted.
Gas line moves during normal operation.
Use only 1000 mm long connector of 1/2" or 3/4" nominal ID.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, injury or property damage.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Leak test all components of gas piping before operation.
Gas can leak if piping is not installed properly.
Do not high pressure test gas piping with heater connected.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, injury or property damage.

Establish that a satisfactory purged gas supply and an electrical supply is available to the heater. Ensure that all time clocks and thermostats are set to call for heat.
With the gas supply cut off and the electrical supply isolated by switching off at the local switch, open the control chamber secured by the screws. Loosen the sealing screw from the pressure test point and remove the cover cap from the governor.
Turn on the gas supply and connect appliance electrical plug. Ensure that the timer or thermostat, if fitted, are set to call for full gas rate. Switch on at the local switch. The sequence as described should take place. If not, refer to detailed fault finding sequence. When flame is established, check the gas pressure reading and adjust if necessary. Refer to burner data label.
Check the gas pressure at the outlet of the gas valve. See Page 73, Section 18.10.1 for pressure settings or refer to the data plate.
Switch off the electrical supply (shutting down the heater), remove pressure gauge, tighten pressure test point screw, ensuring a tight gas seal. Replace governor cover cap. Replace control chamber door.
14.3 Commissioning (Multiburner)
1. Establish that a satisfactory purged gas supply and an electrical supply is available to the heater.
2. ENSURE that all the dampers are in the fully open position.
3. With the gas supply off at each of the burners and the electrical supply isolated, open the control chamber secured by six screws.
4. Ensure that all time clocks and thermostats are set to call for heat.
5. Switch on the electrical supply at the main isolator. This will start the exhaust fan.
6. Balancing Cold Suction Check each burner vacuum by connecting an inclined pressure gauge to the tee on the pressure
switch inlet side in the burner. Adjust the damper so that the suction is 1.9 mbar. Repeat for each burner.
7. Start at the end burner (furthest from the exhaust fan) with the inclined pressure gauge connected as described above. Turn on the gas and electrical sup­ply, reset the pressure switch by removing suction from the inlet side of the pressure switch waiting several seconds and reconnecting. The start up sequence described on Page 57, Section 14 should take place. If not, refer to detailed fault finding sequence. When flame is established, check the gas pressure reading and adjust if necessary. See data label. Check the gas pressure at the outlet of the gas valve. See Page 73, Section 18.10.1 for pressure settings or refer to the data plate. Switch off the electrical supply (shutting down the heater), remove pressure gauge, refit pressure test­point screw, ensuring a tight gas seal. Replace gov- ernor cover cap. Repeat this procedure for each burner in the sys­tem. Close the control chamber and secure with six screws.
8. Balancing Hot Suction Reconnect all the burners on the system and allow them to reach full operating temperature (approxi­mately 20 minutes). Return to each burner and recheck the hot suctions at the tee on the inlet to the pressure switch. Re-adjust the damper so that the hot suction of 1.7 mbar is achieved and lock the damper in position.
14.4 System Checks
Switch on again at the local switch to help ensure smooth ignition. Carry out the following system checks:
When running, turn off the gas supply at the appliance. The heater will immediately shut down followed by one attempt at restoration followed by lockout.
Linear and Double Linear only:
When running, disconnect the fan plug from the burner. The unit should shut down within three seconds, proving operation of the pressure switch.
14.5 User Instructions
After satisfactory testing, ensure that the client is fully aware of the operation of the system. Bring this manual to the attention of the user or purchaser; instruct them in the safe operation of the heater(s).

SECTION 15: SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: Never use the heater as a support for ladders or other access equipment. Always test for gas soundness with a suitable detection fluid after completing any servicing or exchange of gas carrying component. On completion of any service/fault finding tasks which require the breaking and remaking of electrical connections, the checks:- A: Earth Continuity, B: Polarity and C: Resistance to Earth must then be repeated.
15.1 Annual Procedure
Carry out the following procedure annually. The preferred time would be immediately before the winter heating period. If very dirty conditions arise, it may be necessary to carry out this procedure more often. If the unit takes in air through an air duct or filter assembly, more frequent service may be necessary.
15.1.1 Burner and Fan Removal
Isolate the heater from the gas and electrical supplies. Remove the fan plug from the burner. Unscrew the securing screws on the burner flange. The burner can now be removed. Take care not to disturb the gasket on the flanged burner tube. Unscrew the securing screw on the fan flange spigot. The fan can now be removed.
15.1.2 Burner and Fan Removal Maintenance
Remove the fan and burner independently to floor level and clean both items internally using a soft brush and compressed air, if available. Take care not to damage the internal parts of the burner. Check fan impeller for cleanliness and free rotation.
The electrodes are an integral part of the burner. To check spark gap, remove the securing screws on the electrode and withdraw it ensuring the gasket is not damaged. Spark gap on electrode should be approximately 3 mm.
15.1.3 Tube and Reflector Maintenance
With burner and fan removed, clean the outer surfaces of the tubes using a brush and wipe the inner surface of the reflector with a soft damp cloth - use a household detergent if necessary. Never use abrasive cleaners on the reflectors. Reassemble the burner and fan in reverse order. Carry out the Testing Procedure. See Page 58, Section 14.2.
15.2 Sealing Gaskets
During annual service, all gaskets, as indicated on Page 68, Section 17, must be inspected for cuts, misalignment
or dryness. All round rubber gaskets, sealing the screw holes, must be replaced in three year intervals or earlier as needed. All other gaskets must be replaced every five years or earlier as needed.
Old gaskets must be removed completely before installing the new gasket. When replacing gaskets on screws, ensure that the screws are not over tightened. Deformation of the gasket is an indication of suffcient torque. The control and combustion chamber doors have internal seals, replacements must be attached to the same location.
15.3 Component Removal
First, isolate the heater from the gas and electricity supply.
Entry to the burner assembly is gained by removing the six door screws and removing the control chamber door. Entry to the combustion chamber is gained by removing the combustion chamber door.
Cut/Pinch Hazard
Wear protective gear during installation, operation and service.
Edges are sharp.
WARNING
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, electric shock, injury or property damage.
Burn Hazard
Allow heater to cool before service.
Tubing may still be hot after operation.
Explosion Hazard
Turn off gas supply to heater before service.
DANGER
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect electric before service.
More than one disconnect switch may be required to disconnect electric from heater.
