User Instructions
If the heater has not been left operational proceed as follows.
A) Checks before operating 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 any warm air delivery outlets are open. c) Check that the thermostat is set. d) Check that the clock control is set to an ON period. e) Check that any other controls are calling for heat.
B) Operating the Air Heater
1. Switch on the electrical supply at the isolator
2. If the Red Limit indicator lamp is illuminated, identify the limit stat, remove the black cap and press the reset button.
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.
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 lamp on the front of the heater (or on the low level remote reset, or MC200/MC300 if fitted) 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 'Summer Mode'.
2) For Long Periods:
Complete step 1 above. Wait for 5 minutes and then turn OFF the electrical supply at the isolator.
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, controller etc. call for heat. The internal exhaust fan will run and, when sufficient combustion airflow is proved by the air pressure switch, the ignition spark will be generated, the main gas valve opens and the burners will light on HIGH FIRE for the first 30 seconds irrespective of the requirements of the external control. The green ‘ON’ indicator will be illuminated. The heater fan will automatically start 30 seconds after the burners light. After the first 30 seconds, the heat output will then be controlled either to high fire or low fire depending on the requirements of the space being heated and the external controls fitted. When the external controls are satisfied the burners will be turned off and 2½ minutes later the heater fan will automatically stop. If the burners fail to light the control box will make another four attempts at ignition before going into burner lockout. The amber ‘Lockout’ indicator/reset switch will be illuminated.
2) Modulating Units
When the burners are alight, the heat output will be controlled to any point between high and low fire; depending on the requirements of the space being heated and the external controls fitted.
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 off and a Red indicator lamp on the front panel is illuminated. VPx35 - 70 units have a single thermostat located inside the heater. VPx90 - 140 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 off the burners). The fault condition must be identified and rectified and the thermostat manually reset via the red high limit reset switch. When the unit has cooled, identify the limit stat, remove the black cap and press the reset button. The red indicator lamp will go out and the unit is operational again.

User Instructions
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 the heater was
operating, a service engineer should be contacted.
E) Maintenance
To maintain efficient, reliable and safe operation of the heater it must serviced annually by a qualified person.
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 and belts. It would be hazardous to tamper with or attempt to service unless you are a competent person in the field of Gas and Electrical work.

Consideration should be given to flue routes and points of exit, gas, electrical and control connections. Consideration should also be given to the throw characteristics of the heater, issues of public access and siting of environmental control stations and/or remote temperature sensors where the position needs to be representative of the zone temperature to which they refer.
conditions. Please consult our Technical Department for further information.
1.3.2.1 Sizing of the heater
The heater should be correctly sized for the area that it is heating, Full calculations need to be preformed to ensure the correct KW output heater is fitted (CIBSE elemental methodology can be used, or the Powrmatic Technical Department can provide guidelines).
1.3.3 Electrical Supply
Wiring external to the air heater must be installed in accordance with the I.E.E. Regulations for Electrical Installations and any local regulations which apply.
All standard heaters are supplied by 230V - 1ph, 50Hz. The method of connection to the main electricity supply must:-
- facilitate the complete electrical isolation of the unit(s)
via a suitable fused isolator (see section 2.4.5 for ratings)
- be in a readily accessible position adjacent to the unit(s)
- serve only the unit(s)
- have a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles.
See the accompanying wiring diagram for the heater electrical connections
VPx 90-140 units can also be supplied for 400V 3N, 50Hz.
Where the location of the air heater is such that it might suffer external mechanical damage e.g. from overhead cranes, fork lift trucks, it must be suitably protected.
Heaters should not be installed in hazardous areas or areas where there is a foreseeable risk of flammable or corrosion inducing particles, gases or vapours being drawn into the combustion air or main fan circuits.
Areas where special consideration or advice may be required could include but is not limited to –
Where de-greasing solvents are present, even in minute concentrations
Where paint spraying is carried out
Where styrenes or other laminating products are used
Where airborne silicone is present
Where petrol engine vehicles are stored or maintained
Where dust is present (i.e. wood working or joinery shops)
Where high levels of extract persist.
Installation in such areas may be possible under specific
1.3.4 Gas Supply
A servicing valve and union to facilitate servicing must be fitted to the gas inlet pipe work of the heater. The gas supply must be completed in solid pipe work and be adequately supported.
Heaters suspended by drop rods, straps or chains must have a flexible connection as the final link between the gas supply pipe work and the heater. Sufficient slack must be left in the connection to take account of normal movement of the heater.
WARNING: When completing the final gas connection to the heater do not place undue strain on the gas pipe work of the heater.
1.3.4.1 Service Pipes
The local gas undertaking should be consulted at the installation planning stage in order to establish the availability of an adequate supply of gas to suit the building requirements. An existing service pipe must not be used without prior consultation with the local gas undertaking.

1.3.4.2 Meters
An existing meter should be checked, preferably by the gas undertaking, to ensure that the meter is adequate to deal with the total rate of gas supply required by all connected equipment.
1.3.4.3. Installation Pipes
Installation pipes should be fitted in accordance with IGE/ UP/2. Pipe work from the meter to the air heater must be of adequate size.
Do not use pipes of a smaller size than the inlet gas connection of the heater.
The complete installation must be tested for soundness as described in the above Code.
1.3.5 Flue System
Only flue systems supplied through Powrmatic Ltd may be used with VPx units. Several configurations of flue and combustion air ducts are available.
The flue must terminate in a freely exposed position and be sited to prevent the products of combustion entering any opening in a building in such concentration as to be prejudicial to health or a nuisance.

1.3 General Requirements
1.3.7 Air Distribution System
VPC units used in buildings having a low heat loss i.e. where single units are required to cover a large floor area,and in buildings with high roof or ceiling heights Calecon thermal economiser units may be considered to ensure even heat distribution and minimise stratification. Care should be taken to avoid impeding the air throw with racking, partitions, plant or machinery etc. Various outlet configurations are available as optional extras to modify the air throw pattern to suit particular site conditions.
For VPx UD units, the duct work must comply to current regulations and be correctly calculated to match the particular heaters resistance and air flow.
A full and unobstructed return air path to the air heater(s) must be provided.
1.3.7.1 Ducting Requirements
If the air heater(s) are installed in a plant room, the return air intake(s) and the warm air outlet(s) from the heater(s) must be fully ducted, into and out of the plant room to avoid interference with the operation of the heater.
The openings in the structure of the plant room/enclosure through which the ducting passes must be fire stopped.
Care must be taken to ensure that return-air intakes are kept clear of sources of smells and fumes, and where there is any possibility of pollution of the air by dust, shavings etc., precautions must be taken to prevent contamination.
If necessary, suitable barrier rails should be provided to prevent any combustible material being placed within 900mm of the outlets.
It is recommended that
you have a minimum
of 2000mm from the
heater outlet prior to
any restriction

Note: The minimum clearances must be observed for installation and servicing.
Warning: Any combustible material adjacent to the air heater and the flue system must be so placed or shielded as to ensure that its temperature does not exceed 65 °C.
Note: The access door to the controls section may be removed to improve access. Open the door to 90°, remove the earth cable at the bottom, and then lift the door vertically
upwards to disengage the hinge plates. Refit in reverse order. Ensure that the earth cable is refitted.
Before installation, check that the local distribution conditions, nature of gas and pressure, and adjustment of the appliance are compatible.
The air heater must be installed in accordance with the rules in force and the relevant requirements of any fire regulations or insurance company's requirements appertaining to the area in which the heater is located, particularly where special risks are involved such as areas where petrol vehicles are housed, where cellulose

2.1 Fitting the Unit
spraying is carried out, in wood working departments etc. If necessary consideration should be given to mounting the heater on resilient pads, or equivalent, to minimise transfer of noise and vibration to the structure of the building.
Floor mounted heaters must be installed on a level noncombustible surface.
Heaters mounted at high level must be supported on a purpose designed platform or framework that is suspended from vertical drop rods, chains or straps or mounted on specifically designed cantilever brackets from a non-combustible wall.
The method of installation support must be capable of adequately supporting the weight of the unit (See section
1.2) and any ancillary equipment.
Before installing the heater the existing structure must be inspected to ensure it is suitable.
All supports should be protected against the effects of rust or corrosion.
If the method of mounting allows for any movement of the heater it is essential that all gas, duct, and electrical connections to the heater are made with flexible connections to maintain continuity of connection.
2.1.3 Air Distribution System
2.1.3.1 General
VPC heaters, if required, can be used with duct work either to more precisely define the point of air delivery, and / or provide ducted return air or ducted fresh air inlet.
2.1.3.2 Noise Reduction
Ducting should be connected to the heater spigots via an airtight flexible coupling of noncombustible material.
Before fitting the coupling it must be ensured that a minimum clearance of approximately 15mm will be maintained between the ends of the ducting and the heater spigots.
Sound attenuators may be fitted in inlet and outlet ducts to reduce airborne fan noise. If sound attenuators are used then these must be factored into the total static resistance of the ductwork. Materials used in outlet sound attenuators must be capable of withstanding 100°C air temperature without any deterioration.
2.1.4 Room Thermostat Siting
The room thermostat should be fitted at a point which will be generally representative of the heated area as far as temperature is concerned. Draughty areas, areas subjected to direct heat e.g. from the sun, and areas where the air movement is relatively stagnant e.g. in recesses, should be avoided. The thermostat should be mounted approximately 1.5m from the floor.
Any room thermostat, frost thermostat, time clock etc. must be suitable for switching 230V, 5A and must be of the 'snap action' type to minimise contact bounce.
For electrical connections of external controls see section
2.5 or the accompanying wiring diagram.
The system should be checked to ensure that the installation work has been carried out in accordance with the design requirements.
Particular attention should be given to the correct arrangement of delivery ducts and registers, return air ducts and grills and general adequacy of return air paths.
Ensure that the total duct system resistance does not exceed the available air pressure of the equipment supplied refer to section 1.2. If the duct system resistance is less than the available air pressure of the equipment supplied additional resistance must be introduced e.g. by adjustment of duct outlet nozzles and balancing of the duct system. Conversely if the duct system resistance is greater than the available air pressure of the heater supplied the system resistance must be reduced.

2.2 Flue/Combustion Air Duct System
The minimum distance between surfaces of the flue pipe and any surfaces made from combustible materials is 300mm. If it is necessary for the flue pipe to pass through a structure made from combustible materials a metal sleeve must be used so that the minimum clearance of 300mm is maintained.
The flue and combustion air ducts supplied with the heater are capable of withstanding their own weight over the allowable flue lengths. Wall bands and bracing brackets, or equivalent, must be used to provide lateral stability and should be used at centres not exceeding 2.5 metres.
All models are supplied as standard with a top flue outlet and the flue outlet and combustion air sockets temporarily fitted.
2.2.1 Conversion to Side Flue Outlet
1. Remove the two blanking plates from the flue / combustion air openings at the side of the unit.
2. Remove the four screws from the exhaust fan outlet flange.
3. Remove the screws securing the fan mounting box to the exhaust header plate.
The maximum permitted length of flue system is 6m, or 12m if the flue outlet only is used. If an offset is required two sets of 45° bends should be used each set being equivalent to 0.5m of flue length. 90° bends may be used but each set will be equivalent to 1.0m of flue length.
All outer joints must be finished with the provided locking bands. A smear of silicon grease to the inside of sockets will assist in fitting components together. All flue and combustion air ducts must be supported independently of the air heater. The flue or flue/combustion air terminal must not be installed so as to be less than:
- 300mm below an opening e.g. window, air brick etc.
- 200mm below eaves or gutter.
- 300mm from an internal or external corner.
- 600mm from a surface facing the terminal.
- 1500mm vertically from another terminal on the same
wall.
- 300mm horizontally from another terminal on the same
wall.
- 2000mm from ground level.
2.2.4. Installation of Flue System
Note: A terminal guard, as supplied by Powrmatic Ltd, must be fitted to horizontal flue terminals.
4. Remove fan assembly and rotate the assembly 90° clockwise.
5 Refit the fan assembly to the exhaust header plate ensuring that the gasket is not damaged, if necessary replace or make good with silicon sealant.
6. Secure the exhaust fan outlet flange to the inside of the side panel and fit the blanking plates to the top panel.
2.2.2. Fitting Flue/Combustion Air Sockets
1. Apply a bead of silicon sealant around the face of the flange on the exhaust fan outlet tube that can be seen from the outside of the heater. Place the flue socket on the outside of the heater to mate with this flange and clamp the two flanges together, on either side of the heater panel using the screws provided. Ensure that the silicon sealant has sealed between the two flanges.
2. Apply silicon sealant and refit blanking plates as required to seal unused panel holes.
2.2.3. General Requirements
See Figures 1a to 2b for the different types of flue installation. In all cases the flue outlet socket must be connected via the provided flue system to outside air.
Notes for all systems. i) Final overall length of adjustable disconnection piece must be between 360 -
415m m. ii) 45° offsets may be used if required. Each set is equivalent to 0.5m of flue length. iii) Where VPx heaters are used in clean environments it is permissible to take the combustion air directly from the heated space.
2.2.4.1. Horizontal System - Rear Outlet
Note: If the outlet is required to the side of the
unit 90° bends may be fitted directly onto the
inlet/outlet spigots on the heater.
1. Locate the position of the flue terminal, allowing for a slight gradient running down from the heater to the terminal of 2° - 3° and cut a hole to suit.
2. Fit the flue terminal, securing via the wall plate and weather with silicon sealant or similar.
3. Fit the twin to concentric adapter to the terminal section and extend the flue and combustion air ducts to the heater using straight lengths.

2.2.5. Condense Length
We recommend installing an inline condense flue drain when flued vertically, due to the lower flue gas temperatures experienced when the heater is operating at low firing rates.
Other relevant factors include installations where

significant length of the flue is used which may cause chilling, or if heater may be exposed to high winds and heavy rain, which may ingress the flue.
We would always recommend fitting the inline condense drain even if the drain point is capped, should the drain be required in the future. Any clarification can be achieved by consulting with Powrmatic.
The condensate drainage pipe should be run in a standard drain pipe material and have a fall of at least 2.5° in every 50m. Copper or copper based alloy shall not be used for condensate drains. See BS 6896.
Condensate drainage pipe should run and terminate internally to a soil and vent stack or a waste pipe. Alternatively, the condensate can be discharged into the rainwater system or a purpose-made soakway.

2.4.1. Electrical Connections
Warning: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
Warning: Lockout reset is by a switched Neutral to the controls in the heater.
Warning: Wiring external to the unit must be carried out by an appropriately qualified
person to current IEE regulations for Electrical Installations and any local regulations which apply.
The local electrical supply must be run to a point adjacent to the heater and be suitably terminated to provide an isolation point that will prevent remote activation of the unit during servicing. Wiring should be completed in flexible conduit.
The local electrical supply conditions must be compatible with the electrical data given on the appliance data plate.
Heaters are for use with 230V, 1N, 50Hz supplies.
(230V) via a room thermostat, time clock etc. and, if applicable, the remote low level lockout reset see 2.4.5.
Note: To achieve maximum system efficiency it is recommended that VPx units are controlled by an MC200 or MC300 unit. Simple room
thermostat and thermostat/time clock control systems will not provide optimum system efficiency and fuel savings.
Wiring drawings and instructions are supplied with the respective controller.
2.4.2. Typical Wiring Installation showing remote controller
Key: Mains supply = 2 core and earth MC200 Controller = 8 core and earth alt. MC300 Controller = 6 core screened + LNE Optional MC200 sensor = Screened 2 core* * (screen must be grounded only at the MC200, See
instructions supplied with controller for wiring sizing, Max. 100m)
The method of connection to the main electricity supply must:-
- facilitate the complete electrical isolation of the heater(s) via a suitable fused isolator that will prevent remote activation of the heater during servicing (see section 2.4.5 for ratings).
- be in a readily accessible position adjacent to the heater(s).
- serve only the heater(s).
- have a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles. See section 2.5 or the accompanying wiring diagram for
the heater electrical connections.
Reference must be made to Section 2.4.5 to ascertain the electrical loading of the unit(s) being installed so that cables of adequate cross-sectional area are used for the electrical installation. The length of the conductors between the cord anchorage and the terminals must be such that the current carrying conductors become taut before the earth conductor if the cable or cord slips out of the cord anchorage. All external controls must be of an approved type.
