User Instructions
If the heater has not been left operational proceed as follows.
A) Checks before lighting the Air Heater
The following preliminary checks should be made before lighting the heater(s)
a) Ensure that the ELECTRICAL supply to the heater is switched OFF.b) Check that all warm air delivery outlets are open.c) Check that the thermostat is set at MAX.d) Check that the clock control is set to an ON period.e) Check that any other controls are calling for heat.
B) Lighting the Air Heater
1. Switch on the electrical supply at the isolator
2. If the Limit indicator light comes on press the limit interlock reset switch inside the heater.
3. The startup sequence will commence. After a short delay the burners will light and the green ‘ON’ indicator on the front of the heater will be illuminated.
D) Description of Operation
Important: The heater must NOT be controlled by switching ON and OFF the main electrical supply to it.
1) Standard Units
The ignition sequence commences each time the external controls e.g. Time clock, room thermostat etc. call for heat. The internal exhaust fan will run and, when sucient combustion airow is proved by the air pressure switch, the ignition spark will be generated, the main gas valve opens and the burners light. The green ‘ON’ indicator will be illuminated. The heater fan will automatically start approximately 2 minutes after the burners light. When the external controls are satised the burners will be turned o and approximately 2 - 3 minutes later the heater fan will be automatically stopped. If the burners fail to light the control box will make another four attempts at ignition.
2) High / Lo & Modulating Units
When the burners are alight, the heat output will be controlled either to high re or low re or, in the case of modulating units, to any point between high and low re; depending on the requirements of the space being heated and the external controls tted.
4. If the burners fail to light the control box will automatically restart the ignition sequence. If after 5 attempts at ignition the burners have still failed to light the control box will go to lockout and the Amber lockout light on the front of the heater (or on the low level remote reset, MC200 or Powrtrol RR if tted) will be illuminated. To restart the ignition sequence depress the reset button on the low level reset for about 1-2 seconds.
WARNING: If it is not possible to light the heater after several attempts, contact the installer or local service company.
C) To Shut Down the Air Heater
1) For Short Periods:
Turn the room thermostat to the OFF, or set to it’s lowest setting.
2) For Long Periods:
Complete step 1 above. Wait for 5 minutes and then turn OFF the electrical supply at the isolator.
3) Summer / Winter Modes
Certain types of external controls will provide for two modes of operation i.e.Summer: The heater fan alone will run at the dictate of the external controls to provide air movement.Winter: The heater will operate normally.
4) Overheat Thermostat
This operates if high temperatures within the heater are detected, the burners are turned o and a Red indicator switch light on the front panel is illuminated. NVx15 - 75 units have the thermostat located inside the controls section. NVx90SF - 140SF units have an additional thermostat on the side of the unit at the opposite end to the controls (either thermostat can go to limit and shut o the burners). The fault condition must be identied and rectied and the thermostat manually reset via the red high limit reset switch. When the unit has cooled, push the Red indicator switch inside the front panel to reset the limit thermostat interlock relay, the red indicator light will go out and the unit is operational again.
Note: The limit thermostat(s) can only be reset once the unit has cooled down.Unless the cause of the fault condition is readily obvious, for example a power cut whilst

and belts. It would be hazardous to tamper with or attempt to service unless you are a competent person in the eld of Gas and Electrical work.
E) Maintenance
To maintain ecient, reliable and safe operation of the heater it must serviced by a qualied person at least annually and preferably at the end of the heating season.
F) IMPORTANT
Free access must be maintained to and around the heater for servicing purposes and the air supply to the heater must not be restricted in any way. Combustible materials must not be stored adjacent to the heater.
If at any time a gas leak is suspected, turn OFF the gas supply at the meter and contact the local gas undertaking immediately.
All Powrmatic heaters use gas and electricity to power them, they may also contain moving parts such as pulleys
1.1 Introduction
The NVx range are highly ecient, gas red, fanned circulation air heaters that cover heat outputs of 15kW to 140kW, have a closed combustion circuit and are supplied complete with a ue system. They are certied for use on Natural Gas, Group H - G20, and Propane - G31 only. Appliance Categories are Cat II2H3P (GB, IE).
The heaters are designed to be suspended from suitable roof points or alternatively to be mounted on purpose designed brackets and are intended primarily for heating commercial or industrial premises. All variants, with the exception of NVx/EA units, are for internal use only.
NVx heaters feature a closed combustion circuit and have an internal exhaust fan, mounted downstream of the heat exchanger, to evacuate the products of combustion and draw in air for combustion. The air heater must be connected to a ue system that is approved by Powrmatic Ltd.
They may be used where the atmosphere inside the premises could be contaminated e.g. Dust, oil mist etc. but the heaters are not airtight and therefore may not be used in areas classied as hazardous as dened in BS 5345: Part 2 or areas subjected to signicant negative pressures due to extract systems.
NVx/F heaters have an axial fan assembly tted at the rear to circulate the air being heated through the formed tube heat exchanger. NVx/CCF units are supplied with a centrifugal fan and NVx/D units for use with ducted systems where the air moving fan is by others or a
