Replacing the halogen lamp

The heat lamp in IH is of the highest quality 
and unless it is subjected to mechanical 
strains in the form of vibrations and impact 
it will last for a long time. The service life 
is dependent on the ambient temperature 
and how the heater is installed. When the 
heater is installed freely and outdoors the 
temperature will be low and the life of the 
lamp can be expected to be in the region of 
3000 hours. 

The lamp must be replaced by an installer 

or other skilled person.

-  Disconnect the power supply. 
-  Wait until the unit is cold.
1. Remove the covers at both ends (four 

screws).

2. Pull the grille to one side.
3. Remove both reflector ends (two screws).
4. Loosen the connections on the terminal 

block.

5. Pull the lamp out of the lamp holders.
-  Check that the replacement lamp has the 

correct output and voltage.

-  Fit the new lamp. Note do not touch the 

lamp with your fingers, wear gloves or the 
like.

-  The protective tube must be refitted to the 

cables, so that the cables are not damaged 
when the grille is fitted.

-  Reassemble the unit again.
See fig. 5.

Maintenance

Note! When using for the first time or when 
starting up after a long period of disuse, a 
small amount of smoke and a slight odour 
may occur temporarily, which is completely 
normal.

The power supply to the unit must be 

disconnected during all service, repair and 
maintenance work.

The unit has no moving parts so the 

maintenance requirement is small, but it 
must be kept clean and free from dust and 
dirt. If the reflector is not clean the thermal 
radiation from the unit will decrease and the 
heater will become hotter. A large amount of 

dirt can cause overheating. 

The surface of the reflector is sensitive and 

must be cleaned with care. If the reflector 
is dirty it must be cleaned or replaced by a 
specialist.

Safety 

•  During operation the surfaces of the unit 

are hot!

•  The unit must not be fully or partially 

covered with inflammable materials, as 
overheating can result in a fire risk!

•  This product is not designed to be used by 

children or persons with reduced physical 
or mental ability or a lack of experience 
and knowledge, unless instruction 
regarding the product's use has been 
given by a person with responsibility for 
their safety or that this person supervises 
operation. Children must be kept under 
supervision to ensure they do not play 
with the product.

•  The heater is equipped with a protective 

grille to prevent contact or to prevent 
large objects from touching the hot lamp. 
The unit must not be used without this 
protective grille.

•  Ensure that there are no inflammable 

materials gathered on or close to the 
heater.

•  The free space to the inflammable 

material in the direction of radiation 
must be at least 1 meter.

• Do not place the heater directly under the 

electrical socket.

• The cable and plug must not be placed 

inside the hot radiant area.

• Do not use timer that switches the heater 

on automatically since a fire risk exists 
if the heater is covered or positioned 
incorrectly.
