During installation, start-up, repair and maintenance of the
air heater follow the safety rules.
Install the unit on a firm base or surface, which can stand its
weight filled with water.
Use screws appropriate for the material which the base is
made of.
Check correctness of connections of the system, accordance
of the heat medium parameters to the parameters indicated
on the rating plate as well as leak proof of joints before filling
in the heat medium.
Avoid substances and impurities in the heat medium causing
copper corrosion.
Check compliance of parameters of the electrical supply
network to the ones indicated on the unit’s rating plate
before connecting to the power supply.
Check grounding. Prohibit the use of the unit without
grounding as it may cause property damages, personnel
injuries and death.
Current network which feeds the unit’s motor and controls
must be additionally protected by a fuse to prevent
consequences of shunt fault.
Provide protection of a fan against overheat by connecting
protection devices to contacts of fan temperature sensor.
While the air heater is operating under low temperatures, the
-t
user must provide protection of the water heat exchanger or
use heat medium with special additives preventing copper
corrosion.
To prevent defrosting of the air heater’s heat exchanger
when circulation of the heat medium is stopped during a
heating period under outdoor temperatures lower than 0°C,
you need to drain the heat medium from the heat exchanger
and blow it o by compressed air.
