1. INTRODUCTION
The Powrmatic NCA -G range of gas fired for ced dr augh t, cl osed
flue, fanned circulation air heaters cover a heat output range
of 29.3 kW (100000 Btu/h) to 88.0 kW (300000 Btu/h) and
are intended primarily for heating commercial or industry
premises. They are certified for use on Natural Gas, Group H G20 and Propane - G31.
The heaters are for floor mounting and ar e av ailabl e in UF and
UD variants. (U - Upright; F - Freeblowing; D - Ducted).
NCA-G heaters have a cen trifugal f an assembly fitted upstr eam
of the combustion chamber / heat exchanger assembly to
circulate the air being heated.
Heaters are fitted as standard with fully automatic monoblock
forced draught gas burn ers and m onoblock gas contr ol assemblies.
Options include High/Lo w or modulatin g burner s, Deep V filters ,
proportional air dampers, combustion air inlet adaptors and
inlet and outlet duct spigots.
Each air heater must be conn ected t o a closed flue s ystem only.
