IMPORTANT

PLEASE READ THIS LEAFLET CAREFULLY AND RETAIN FOR FURTHER USE. NOTE ALSO THE INFORMATION GIVEN ON THE HEATER

WARNING - THE SURFACES ON THIS HEATER CAN BE HOT.

This heater meets BS 3456 safety requirements. However, any heater type becomes hot in normal operation. Care must be taken to ensure that prolonged skin contact with the heater does not occur.

WHERE YOUNG CHILDREN, INFIRM PERSONS, OR THE AGED ARE LIKELY TO BE LEFT UNSUPERVISED IN THE VICINITY OF THE HEATER WE RECOMMEND THAT A GUARD IS FITTED. Contact your installer or the manufacturer for further advice.

THIS APPLIANCE IS EXTREMELY HEAVY. THE FLOOR MUST BE CHECKED TO ENSURE THAT IT IS CAPABLE OF BEARING THE WEIGHT OF THE UNIT, UP TO 750KG (¾ TON). DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES ATTEMPT TO MOVE OR REPOSITION THIS HEATER WITHOUT SEEKING EXPERT ADVICE.

To maintain stability, it is essential that the heater is placed on a level surface.

The heater must be installed where it is possible for switches and other controls to be touched by a person in a bath or shower.

IMPORTANT - Due to the newness of materials the heater will produce a slight smell for the first few days of operation. ROOMS MUST BE WELL VENTILATED AND YOUNG CHILDREN, CAGED BIRDS, OR PERSONS WITH RESPIRATORY COMPLAINTS MUST NOT REMAIN IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE HEATER DURING THE FIRST 48 HOURS OF THE COMMISSIONING PERIOD.

IF, DURING ANY REASSEMBLY OF THE HEATER, A PART OF THE THERMAL INSULATION SHOWS DAMAGE OR DETERIORATION WHICH MAY IMPAIR SAFETY, IT SHOULD BE REPLACED BY AN IDENTICAL PART.

The heater must stand at least 50mm clear of any walls and 150mm below ceilings.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

 

CONTROL FUNCTIONS - see Fig. A

 

 

 

 

 

 

The warm air system is designed to operate on cheap rate electricity. The heater takes in energy when electricity tariffs are low, and retains it in the insulated core. Warm air is provided directly from the unit mounted on a plenum or through duct work, by the operation of a fan. The fan may be controlled by a central thermostat and/or a time clock.

1.INPUT CONTROL

The input controller is a thermostat which regulates the amount of energy taken by the heater during the hours when cheap rate electricity is available. Turning the knob clockwise increases the amount of heat stored. The setting should be adjusted from MIN to MAX to suit seasonal requirements.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1.VENTILATE ROOM WELL DURING COMMISSIONING

2.DO NOT MOVE THE HEATER IN ANY WAY ONCE INSTALLED, WITHOUT THE SERVICES OF A COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN.

2.NEON INDICATOR & 3. FAN SWITCH

To obtain heat from the Electricaire Unit press the fan switch to the ON position. The fan indicator light will now glow red. If the fan is controlled by a room thermostat it will switch off automatically when the room temperature reaches the required level. The fan should be switched off before retiring at night. This function may be performed by installing a time clock.

3.DO NOT COVER THE HEATER WITH CLOTHING ETC. AT ANY TIME, OR POSITION FURNITURE CLOSE TO OR AGAINST THE HEATER.

ALSO REFER TO COVER PAGE

COMMISSIONING

The heater should be commissioned in accordance with the

installation instructions - by the installing engineer.

4.BOOST SWITCH

The boost switch increases the airflow delivered by the Electricaire Unit. This facility is designed to produce a rapid rise in room temperature, e.g. first thing in the morning or when you return home in cold weather.

5.DAY ENERGY SWITCH

If your Electricaire Unit is connected to the “White Meter” tariff the day energy switch operates direct acting elements. This facility extends the heat output obtainable from the Electricaire Unit by using day energy after the core has been fully discharged. To avoid unnecessary use of day rate energy the following safeguards have been built into the appliance.

Day energy can only be used if:

The Day Energy switch is in the ON position. The fan switch is in the ON position.

The outlet air temperature has fallen below a pre-determined level.

In addition ensure the input is set at MAX.
