COMBAT® CTU UNIT HEATERS INSTALLATION OPERATIONAND SERVICE MANUAL
SECTION 1: HEATER SAFETY
Your Safety is Important to Us!
2.2 Corrosive Chemicals
This symbol is used throughout the
manual to notify you of possible fire,
electrical or burn hazards. Please pay
special attention when reading and
following the warnings in these sections.
Installation, service and annual inspection of heater
must be done by a registered installer/contractor
qualified in the installation and service of gas-fired
heating equipment.
Do not use heater in an area containing corrosive
chemicals.
Corrosive chemicals will damage the burner and
heat exchanger parts.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
property damage.
Read this manual carefully before installation,
operation, or service of this equipment.
Roberts-Gordon cannot be responsible for ensuring
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.
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
premises.
CAUTION
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
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 (P/N 91040028) is on
the back cover of this manual as a permanent
reminder of the safety instructions and the
importance of the required clearances to
combustibles. Affix the tag on a wall near the heater.
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical
compounds characterized by the presence of halogen
elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These com
pounds are frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning
agents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the air
supply of the burner, the lifespan of the heater compo
nents 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.
2
SECTION 3: CRITICAL CONSIDERATIONS
3.1 Basic Information
CTU 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.
• May be mounted on a shelf of non-combustible
material. (
See Page 5, Section 4 and Page 9,
Figure 2 for support points)
• May be suspended from above (See Page 9,
Figure 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 of the heater.
• Must be installed in a manner which allows the
hinged door to be fully opened to provide 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 10, 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 10, Figure 3
through Page 11, Figure 6 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 electrical supply is
required at the main electrical terminals. The heater
also requires suitable energy controls in accordance
with
Section 10.

5.1 General
Heaters are designed for installation above 2.5 m.
These heaters must be installed within the heated
space. Duct delivery systems are not permitted with
axial fans.
5.2 Handling
All CTU heaters are supplied secured to a wooden
pallet and shrink wrapped. Use the pallet to support
the heater during handling and installation. When
handling or supporting the heater from below,
ensure that the weight is taken at the support points.

COMBAT® CTU UNIT HEATERS INSTALLATION OPERATIONAND SERVICE MANUAL
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
injury or property damage.
The flue must terminate outside of the building.
Flues and air intakes must be a fully sealed system
and correctly sized for the model. Flues should be
assembled as detailed
on Page 10, Figure 3 through
Page 11, Figure 6. The joints between the flue
terminal and the roof or wall must be properly
sealed. If the flue passes through a wall or ceiling of
combustible material, it must be enclosed by a
sleeve of non-combustible material and be
separated from the sleeve by at least a 25 mm air
gap.
Flues and air intakes must be adequately
supported so that the heater does not bear the
weight of the pipes.
For flue termination See Page 10, Figure 3 through
Page 11, Figure 6.
