Product Approval
ROBERTS GORDON® appliances have been tested and CE certified as complying with the essential
requirements of the Gas Appliance Directive, the Low Voltage Directive, the Electromagnetic
Compatibility Directive and the Machinery Directive for use on natural gas and LPG when installed,
commissioned and maintained in accordance with these instructions.
These instructions refer to appliances designed to operate in the European Union.
Appliances designed for other countries (non European Union) are available on request.
This appliance must be installed in accordance with the local and national codes in force and used
only in a sufficiently ventilated space, as specified in these instructions.
Before installation, check that the local gas distribution systems, nature of gas and pressure, and
adjustment of the appliance are compatible.

chemicals.
qualified in the installation and service of gas-fired
heating equipment.
Read this manual carefully before installation,
operation, or service of this equipment.
Corrosive chemicals will damage the burner and
heat exchanger parts.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
property damage.
This heater is designed for heating non-residential
indoor spaces. Do not install in residential spaces.
These instructions, the layout drawing, local codes
and ordinances and applicable standards that apply
to gas piping, electrical wiring, venting, etc. must be
thoroughly understood before proceeding with the
installation.
Roberts-Gordon cannot be responsible for ensuring
that all appropriate safety measures are undertaken
prior to installation; this is entirely the responsibility
of the installer. It is essential that the contractor, the
sub-contractor, or the owner identifies the presence
of combustible materials, corrosive chemicals or
halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere in the
SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY
• To install the heater, as well as the gas and electrical supplies, in accordance with applicable
specifications and codes. Roberts-Gordon
recommends the installer contact a local
building inspector, Fire Officer or insurance
company for guidance.
• To use the information given in the manual
together with the local and national codes to
perform the installation.
• To install the heater in accordance with the
clearances to combustibles of this heater.
• To furnish all needed materials not furnished
as standard equipment.
• To plan location of supports, flues and air
premises.
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical
compounds characterized by the presence of halogen
elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These
compounds are frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning
agents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the air
supply of the burner, the lifespan of the heater
components will be greatly reduced. Warranty will be
invalid if the heater is exposed to halogenated
hydrocarbons.
2.3 National Standards and Applicable Codes
All appliances must be installed in accordance with
the latest revision of applicable standards and local
and national codes. This refers also to the electric,
gas and venting installation. Note: Additional
standards for installations in public garages, aircraft
hangars, etc. may be applicable.
intakes.
• To provide access to burners for servicing.
• To provide the owner with a copy of this
Installation, Commissioning, Operation and
Service Manual.
• To never use heater as support for ladder or
other access equipment and never hang or
suspend anything from heater.
• To ensure that there is sufficient ventilation in the
area to comply with the requirements of
all relevant local and national codes.
2.1 Clearances to Combustibles
In all situations, clearances to combustibles must be
maintained. Caution must be used when running the
heater near combustible materials such as wood,
paper, rubber, etc. A wall tag is on the back cover of
this manual as a permanent reminder of the safety
instructions and the importance of the required
CAUTION

SECTION 3: CRITICAL CONSIDERATIONS
3.1 Basic Information
CTCU heaters have automatic ignition burners for
ON/OFF operation only.
3.2 Location and Suspension
All models:
• Must be installed indoors.
• Must be installed in a level position with horizontal or vertical discharge.
• May be mounted on a shelf of non-combustible
material. (See Page 5, Section 4 and Page 7, Figure 2 for support points.)
• May be suspended from above (See Page 7, Fig-ure 2) or from wall brackets of sufficient strength
to support the heater as listed in the Dimension
Data Table on Page 5, Section 4.1. Drop rods
must be a minimum of 10 mm diameter mild
steel. Four suspension points (M10 nuts) are
located on top and back side of the heater.
• Must be installed in a manner which allows
access to all serviceable components.
SECTION 3: CRITICAL CONSIDERATIONS
3.8 Flue
Choose heater siting to allow for the proper location
of the flue. Each heater must be fitted with an
individual and correctly sized sealed flue system
(See Page 9, Section 6).
No other appliance may be connected to the flue.
For room sealed installation, the air intake must be
the same size sealed system and the flue/air intake
must terminate at an approved concentric wall or
roof terminal.
3.3 Minimum Required Installation Clearances
Clearances around the heater and flue must be as
indicated on Page 4, Figure 1; Page 9, Figure 5 through Page 10, Figure 7 to ensure access for
servicing, and correct operation.
3.4 Clearances to Combustibles
Clearances must be as indicated on Page 4, Figure
1. If clearances to combustibles are not indicated,
then installation clearances apply.
3.5 Ventilation
It is important to ensure that there is adequate air
circulation around the heater to supply air for
combustion, ventilation and distribution in
accordance with local and national codes.
3.6 Gas Supply
It is important that the gas supply pipe is sized
correctly to provide the inlet pressure as stated on
the heater data plate. The gas supply pipe and
electrical connections must not support any of the
heater's weight.
3.7 Electrical Supply
A permanent 230 V 50 Hz 1 Ø electrical supply is
required at the main electrical terminals. The heater
also requires suitable energy controls in accordance
with Section 9.
