Introduction
1.0 Introduction
The iVECTOR is MYSON’s latest product innovation and an
exciting, energy efficient addition to our range of modern
heating solutions.
The iVECTOR is the first in a new generation of intelligent fan
convectors. It has been designed specifically to combine all the
traditional advantages of a fan convector with a range of new
product benefits made possible by the inclusion of our latest
heating technology, such as a large surface area heat exchanger,
low water content, energy efficient fans and intelligent controls.

iVECTOR Benefits
2.1 Compact in Size
The large surface area of the iVECTOR’s heat exchanger means
that units are compact in size (all units are a standard height of
only 600mm, the same as the most popular size of panel
radiator) and occupy significantly less wall space than a panel
radiator of equivalent output. By utilising fan convection, the
iVECTOR increases its heat output even further and provides an
even distribution of warm air throughout a room. This means that
rooms feel more comfortable, even at lower temperatures.
2.2 Renewable Technology
Due to its heat exchanger and fan, the iVECTOR will produce
significantly higher heat output than a panel radiator of the same
size. This means that iVECTORs are ideal for use with low water
temperature systems. For example, when operating with a low
flow temperature of 45°C the iVECTOR will produce around
twice as much heat output as a similar double panel radiator.
2.3 Rapid Response
The iVECTOR has a low water content, between 5 and 10% of
the amount used in a traditional radiator with equivalent output.
This lower water content means that an iVECTOR produces an
instant heat response where needed and cools quicker when
heat is no longer required. Heat is accurately controlled as a
result, leading to improved indoor comfort.
2.4 Low Surface Temperature (LST)
When operating with low flow temperatures of 35 - 55°C no
outer part of an iVECTOR will exceed a temperature of 43°C. As
a result, when used with heat pumps, iVECTORs provide a high
output and energy efficient alternative to standard LST radiators
for sensitive environments such as nurseries and care homes.
(Please note that this does not apply when iVECTORs are used
with high water temperature systems, please contact MYSON
Technical Services for full information).

iVECTOR Specification Data
3.1 Unit Sizes
All iVECTORs are the same height and depth and there is a
choice of 5 different lengths as detailed in the table (right). The
performance data for each model is supplied in the following
sections of this guide.

iV60x140 600 153 1400
iV60x160 600 153 1600
3.2 Outputs
The heat output of the iVECTOR is affected by the flow rate of
water through its heat exchanger, even when the mean water
temperature is constant. Each iVECTOR model requires the
specified flow rate to ensure the temperature drop will be
reasonable, as shown in the outputs table. For quietest
operation MYSON recommends sizing the iVECTOR based on
normal fan speed.

3.4 Noise Levels
The iVECTOR has three different fan speeds. The lower the fan
speed, the lower the noise level. At the lowest fan speed, the
unit operates almost silently. It is our quietest fan convector ever.
The following table provides a comprehensive overview of noise
levels as tested in accordance with ISO 3741. For quietest
operation MYSON recommends sizing the iVECTOR based on
normal fan speed.

3.5 Hydronic Connections
The iVECTOR is suitable for use on closed circulation, two pipe*,
pump assisted central heating systems or heating and cooling
systems. Not suitable for one pipe or microbore systems.
Note: A pressure independent balancing and control valve is
available for this product as an accessory. This valve can simplify
system design by eliminating the possible need for larger
balancing valves elsewhere in the system, and will maintain the
flow in the unit to the required levels.

iVECTOR Installation
4.1 Ease of Installation
The iVECTOR has been designed specifically to make installation
as easy as possible. Unlike panel radiators it does not have any
brackets to fit and unlike some fan convectors it is not supplied
in kit form – there is only a one-piece casing to attach!
The iVECTOR can be securely fitted on most flat walls with a
minimum side clearance of 100mm and a minimum floor
clearance of 150mm. Units should not be installed in locations
with high humidity levels, such as bathrooms.

iVECTOR Installation
4.4 Electrical Connection
The electrical installation of an iVECTOR should be carried out
by a qualified electrician in accordance with current regulations.
A fused electrical spur with a maximum 3A fuse and a switch
having 3mm separation on all poles must be provided in an easily
accessible position adjacent to the unit. The electrical cable
should be fed through the underside of the unit, into the control
box on the right hand side using the cable gland provided. The
supply cord must be 0.75mm² only. The live and neutral wires
are connected to the power board terminal connections and the
earth wire to the chassis earth terminal.
There is a built-in connection for use with Building Management
Systems in all iVECTORs, however, this will require additional
wiring to the unit.
Routing cable
4.3 Water Connection - Pipe Routing Options
The iVECTOR has two pipes to connect – flow and return. This
pipework can be routed in one of two ways, either from the floor
or through the wall at the back of the unit (see diagram below).
Please note that the flow pipe must be connected to the
bottom connection of the heat exchanger and the return pipe
to the top connection.

Applications
5.3 Renewable Heating System
The iVECTOR has been designed specifically to operate
efficiently with low flow temperatures. It contains the latest
energy efficient heating technology, with features such as large
surface area heat exchanger, low water content and intelligent
controls.
With renewable installations such as heat pumps, iVECTORS are
a viable alternative to underfloor heating or radiators and can
be installed in different rooms or on separate floors of the same
building. This is because all products can operate using the same
low flow temperatures.
5.2 Traditional Heating System
The lower water content inside each iVECTOR means that it
produces an instant heat response where needed and cools
quicker when heat is no longer required. iVECTORs, therefore,
use minimal energy and have lower lifecycle costs than other
emitters, making them a realistic alternative to traditional
radiators with high water temperature systems.
5.4 Mix ‘n’ Match Heating Solutions
With a full range of hydronic heat emitters, electric heat emitters
and controls, MYSON is the UK’s leading expert in the control
and distribution of heat. MYSON is the only manufacturer who
can truly offer an unbiased view on how best to heat buildings
both now and in the future.
Our technical team are happy to provide expert advice on
system design and help you make the best decisions on heating
solutions, which may involve mix ‘n’ match solutions. For
example, if you want to use a heat pump but it is not practical to
install underfloor heating, iVECTORs make an excellent
alternative heat emitter. Alternatively, the iVECTOR’s compact
size means that it can be used instead of radiators if, for
aesthetic reasons, you want fewer or smaller units in a room.
5.1 All Round Suitability
The compact size, high heat output and efficiency of the
iVECTOR makes it a great all round performer which is suitable
for use with all types of heating systems, in domestic and
commercial situations, with new build and refurbishment work
and alongside other types of heat emitter in the same building.

Intelligent and Easy to Use Controls
6.1 Introduction
The intelligent, electronic control system provided as standard in
every iVECTOR includes a wide range of easy to use heating and
cooling operating options. Its two tier level of programming
incorporates an ‘easy’ mode for everyday operation and a ‘full’
mode for more advanced functions. It also has the ability to link
iVECTORs to a building management system.
