4. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
4.1. LPHW UNITS
All electrical work shall be carried out in accordance with current I.E.E. Regulations. Unit motors
operate on single phase 230V/50Hz supply. Electrical connection is made to the mains terminal block
located on the control plate between the fans (knock-outs in the back plate are present for cable entry –
see figure 1). The supply should be wired through a suitable means of isolation such as a fused spur
box close to the unit. Recommended fuse for the LPHW unit is 2A. A 3 core cable must be used to
supply mains electricity, with the earth line connected as per the supplied wiring diagram.
4.2. ELECTRIC UNITS
All electrical work shall be carried out in accordance with current I.E.E. Regulations. Electric elements
operate on 400V/50Hz three phase supply (can be 230V/50Hz single phase on 6kW units). Unit
motors operate on single tapping from three phase supply (as per supplied wiring diagram). Electrical
connection is made direct to the switch contractors and heating element terminals as per the supplied
wiring diagram (knock-outs in the back plate are present for cable entry). The supply should be wired
through a suitable means of isolation close to the unit.
5.0. CONTROL DATA
5.1. CONTROL WIRING
A wiring diagram showing customer connections is included with each unit. For wiring other than with
the standard, available options the SPC Technical Department should be contacted.
5.2. FAN SPEED SELECTION - LPHW UNITS
The standard installation on LPHW units has a change speed fan switch behind the front panel.
Should the speed of the unit require adjusting during installation this can be done by removing the front
panel and altering the switch position.
5.3. CONTROL OPTIONS - LPHW UNITS
An air filter, 3-speed fan switch and low water temperature cutout come as standard water options.
