ABOUT THE COMPANY
MINIB,a.s. is a Czech business through and through, and it ranks
among the leading manufacturers of convectors in the Czech Republic. It currently exports to thirty countries in Europe, Asia, Australia,
and America.
Since 1999, MINIB has been systematically innovating its production technology and its products and has invested considerable sums
in proprietary development and design, with the goal of offering our
customers solutions that are mature both from the technical and esthetic points of view.
MINIB's business is economically soand and the company consistently turns a profi t. This allows us to invest in R&D, technology, and
above all, human capital, so as to ensure our long-term prosperity.
ABOUT THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS
The manufacturing facility is located in Býkev near Mělník and has
excellent transport connections. It is furnished with state-of-the-art
production technology. Most manufacturing operations are carried
out on CNC machines, which allows us to accommodate even the
most sophisticated wishes of our exacting customers.
In response to individual calls for customization, we are able to create a wide variety of non-standard, one-of-a-kind products that satisfy
specifi c needs.
All products are made from high-grade material with a useful life of
many years, which is why we offer a 10-year warranty on heat exchangers and our stainless-steel convector vats.
MINIB holds an ISO 9001:2008 certifi cate in addition to numerous utility models and patents.
The entire range of products is submitted to testing in the independent, accredited test chamber of HEATEST, s.r.o. pursuant to the European Standard EN 442-2, which is why we are able to guarantee the
advertised heating and cooling output.
ABOUT THE PRODUCTS
MINIB's production portfolio consists of over 70 convector types.
Customers can thus choose the right convector for any interior.
The main advantage of convectors is that they are effi cient, modern,
economical, and esthetic heaters suitable for both dry and humid
environments. Signifi cant power savings are achieved thanks to
low water requirements for the immediate heating or cooling of a given area. This leads to low consumption of electricity required for
its heating. In addition to water and energy savings, a great heating
and cooling dynamics is also important. The space saving design is
another important feature of these products. Our convectors do not
disturb interior esthetics, have a modern design, and - last but not
least - are safe thanks to their 12V power supply.
The product range comprises various types of convectors:
FLOOR convectors without fans that work on the natural con-
vection principle. Convectors with fans utilize the principle of
forced convection.
FREE STANDING AND WALL MOUNTED convectors with and
without fans are also available. Heating benches with granite and wooden top panels are available for humid environments (swimming pools, bathrooms).
DESIGN convectors are a unique patent series that use both
the convection and heat radiation principle for heating.
These convectors have aluminum composite front panels
available in a number of modern designs from smooth glass
with various colors or from glass with sand blasted decorations. The company also offers granite front panels.
MINIB can satisfy any individual, non-standard requirements of
its customers such as angular or arc-shaped convectors with
various connections and tailor them to their demands. MINIB
emphasizes high user comfort. All products place low demands
on installation and maintenance.
Numerous accessories are available for individual convector types.
MINIB products have won a number of national and foreign awards.

1. UNIT DESCRIPTION
This is a free-standing, all-wooden heating unit that works on the
convection principle. Since the unit fully uses the laws of physics in
the area of thermodynamics, it represents one of the most effi cient
means of interior heating.
BENEFITS OF FREE-STANDING CONVECTORS:
high output,
silent operation,
no need for other energies except water,
low hot water consumption,
short response time,
design,
minimal operation and maintenance requirements.

3. TECHNICAL PARAMETERS
Figure 1: COMPONENTS OF CONVECTOR LP
1. WOODEN CONVECTOR BODY – the all-wooden convector body is a
design feature and it covers the heat exchanger.
2. CONVECTOR GRILLE - design element protecting the convector
outlet. Must not be covered!!!
3. EXCHANGER - copper pipes with pressed-on aluminum fi ns through
which the heating water fl ows.
4. STRAIGHT BALL VALVE - enables water supply shut off.
5. SCREW FITTING - a valve that controls / adjusts heating water fl ow.
6. HOSE 41mm – the bellows hose is a stainless hose intended for
fi tting the connection to the convector exchanger.
7. HOSE 65mm.
8. SEALING - seals joints between valves, hoses, and exchangers
(KLEGERSIL C4400). MINIB, s.r.o. recommends this sealing as an
optimum sealing solution, as other materials (rubber, NBR, silicon)
do not have suffi cient tightness upon suffi cient tightening and because they are deformed by tightening forces.
9. DOWEL - for screw fi xing.
10. WOOD SCREW - for convector fi xing to the fl oor.
11. TEMPLATE - for marking the positions of the inlet and return pipes
and for marking the convector fi xing holes on the fl oor.

4. BEFORE INSTALLATION
Select the correct convector position - see paragraph 4.1.
4.1 Convector Position
The free-standing MINIB DP convector is intended for fl oor installation. Place the convector so that it does not disturb the overall aesthetic
appearance of the room. MINIB, s.r.o. recommends leaving 50-150 mm
between the convector and the wall - Figure 2. Never cover the top grille
- this would result in fl ow reduction and a considerable decrease in the
convector's output.
5. INSTALLATION
Free-standing DP convectors are intended for fl oor installation. Before you start, please read the following instructions.
For fl oor installation, plan the exact positions of the heating water
pipes. The convector body (wooden) should be used for the exact
position determination.
Mount the free-standing convector with the mounting accessories
supplied by MINIB, s.r.o.
The heat exchanger must be connected to the distribution pipes with
the supplied stainless steel hoses.
A correctly installed convector is horizontally supported along its entire length.
usage: dry premises,
maximum operating pressure: 1.0 MPa,
maximum operating temperature: 95 °C,
operating medium: water. The use of other media is prohibited.
Water may not be mixed with other substances, such as non-freeze liquids!
environment: interiors with temperatures between +5°C and +40°C.

template. For pipe installation, use either the right or left leg of the DP con-
vector - never the central one.

7. UNIT DEAERATION
Deaerate the unit by deaerating the valve opening during fi rst use.
In free-standing convectors, the deaerating valve is located by the
water inlet on the heat exchanger fi tting.
6. CONNECTION OF FITTINGS
Connect the fi ttings with the supplied standard accessories.
Connect individual inlet and outlet valves. The ball valve (standard
supply) is connected to the water inlet for shutting off the water supply. The screw fi tting is installed on the outlet pipe. Sealing must be
used in all joints. Use the supplied fl exible stainless hoses (bellows
hoses) for heat exchanger connection. Connect fi ttings as shown in
Figure 9.
Stainless hoses are designed for the maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa.
Hoses must not be stretched, compressed, or otherwise deformed.
Media inlet: the ball valve (standard supply) is connected to the water inlet.
Outlet (return pipe): the screw fi tting is always connected to the return pipe.
