3.0  INSTALLATION - GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
3.1  Norseman
TM
 XB heaters are approved for wall 
or oor mounting with the terminal housing at 
the bottom. Ensure that is the wall sufciently 
strong to support the heater which, depending 
on the model, could weigh up to 100 lbs (45 
kg). Otherwise use the brackets supplied to 
stand the heater on the oor.
3.2  Do not recess the Norseman
TM
 XB heater 
into the wall. Use of the brackets supplied will 
ensure that the minimum spacing from the 
wall of 3.75” (95 mm) is maintained.
3.3  If more than one heater is being installed, 
maintain at least 3” (76 mm) between adjacent 
heater extrusions. NEVER INSTALL ONE 
HEATER ABOVE THE OTHER.
3.4  The Norseman
TM
 XB heater relies on natural 
convection and “black heat” radiation to transfer 
heat to the surroundings. Try to maintain a 12” 
(300 mm) clearance and NEVER LESS THAN 
6” (150 mm) clearance in front of and at the 
sides of the heater.
3.5  Use guard rails in front of the heater if there 
is a possibility that moving equipment could 
come in contact with the heater.
