Application

IR is suitabe for total or supplementary 
heating of premises with large volume and 
high ceilings. It can also be used outdoors 
for example on sport arena stands or to keep 
loading bays dry and frostless.

Action

The infra-red heater heats up rapidly and 
provides additonal heating input immediately 
to the area.

Location

For point-heating, at least two infra-red 
heaters are placed to ensure that heat is 
provided both in front of and behind people 
involved. The heaters must be mounted at 
least 2 m above people´s heads.

Installation

Suspension brackets can be fitted directly to 
the ceiling or wall. The mountings allow the 
radiation to be varied 30° in any direction. 
Note the permitted installation arrangements 
and minimum distances shown on page 2. 
In all installations the elements must be 
horizontal. It is also possible to suspend the 
heaters from cords(minimum Ø 3 mm).

Electrical installation

The apparatus must be permanently 
connected. The installation must be carried 
out by a qualified technician, and the 
appropriate regulations must be followed. 
A heat resistant connection cable that can 
withstand a constant temperature of at least 
90 °C, must be used when connecting the 
heater. The connection box contains terminal 
blocks for connecting cables with areas up to 
16 mm². This makes it possible to connect 
several heaters in parallel. 

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. When an infra-red installation has 
not been in use for some time, the elements 
should be ”dried”. Switch on the heaters for 

5-10 minutes and then allow them to cool. 
The equipment will then be ready for use 
again.

If the reflectors are dirty, they can be blast-

cleaned using compressed air or wiped clean 
with a soft cloth.

Safety cut-out

The installation should be proctected by a 
safety cut out of minimum 300 mA. If it trips 
when the appliance is connected, this may be 
due to moisture in the heating element.
When an appliance containing a heater 
element, has not been used for a long period 
and is stored in a damp environment, 
moisture can enter the element. This should 
not be seen as a fault, but is simply rectified 
by connecting the appliance to the mains 
supply via a socket without a safety cut-out 
so that the moisture can be driven out of the 
element. The drying time can vary from a few 
hours to a few days. As a preventive measure 
the infra-red heater should occasionally be 
run for a short time when the heater is not 
being used for an extended period of time.

Safety

•  The surfaces of the apparatus become hot  

during use.
