Ensure strength and integrity of mechanical fastening to structure for the weight of the heater and any potential snow load. 2. Install the heater bracket on the heater using four nuts. 3. Install the heater bracket to the wall mount bracket, and remove the lifting chains from the top of the heater.
1. APPLICATION: This gas-fired infrared heater is suitable for installation for heating of outdoor commercial / industrial / residential areas, and indoor commercial / industrial / nonresidential spaces. It is beyond the scope of these instructions to consider all conditions that may be encountered. Installation in the USA must conform to all local and national code requirements including the current National Fuel Gas code ANSI Z223.1, and the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No 70 (latest edition).
2. INSTALLATION IN COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT HANGARS Luminous (high intensity) radiant tube heaters are suitable for use in aircraft hangars when installed in accordance with the latest edition of the Standard for Aircraft Hangars, ANSI/NFPA No 409 in the USA. A. A minimum clearance of 8 ft (2.4 m) must be maintained from the bottom of the heater to the floor in other sections of the aircraft hangar, such as offices and shops, which communicate with areas for servicing or storage.
Installation must conform with all local, state, provincial and national code requirements including the current latest edition ANSI Z223.1 (NFPA 54) in the U.S.A. The latest edition Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA N0 70 in the U.S.A. must also be observed. The heating system must have gas piping of the correct diameter, length, and arrangement to provide for and satisfy the total system input. A layout drawing is necessary to calculate properly sized gas supply piping. 6.
7. GAS SUPPLY PIPING • • • • • • All piping must be installed according to applicable local and national codes A listed flexible connector (field supplied) must be installed between the heater and gas supply piping. For outdoor installation the connector must be in compliance with ANSI Z21.75 / CSA 6.27. A 3/8” x 24” black finish flexible gas connector (903000012 - approved Indoor/Outdoor) is available as an option from Rinnai.
PROPER WIRING POLARITY MUST BE MAINTAINED, particularly when grouping the heaters in a zone. Total wiring distances of up to 200' must use minimum 16 gauge electrical wire, and wiring distances of over 200' must use minimum 14 gauge electrical wire. The heater must be electrically grounded in accordance with local and national electrical codes. Malfunction of the heating system will result if the voltage varies by more than ±10% .
Heater/Zone Control Options: Locate controls in a secure staff area.
11. LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Ensure the correct voltage is supplied, gas supply lines have been properly purged, and gas valve is switched to the ON position. 2. Turn on power to heater (high or low rate for 2-stage heater), set thermostat (if applicable) to above ambient temperature, the heater will light. 3. If heater does not light: Turn off power to heater, turn gas valve to OFF position. 4. Wait for five minutes and repeat steps above.
13. SERVICING GUIDE (Also refer to Troubleshooting Guide on page 30) Servicing of heater is essential for continued efficient operation. Servicing should be carried out annually by a qualified gas service technician as follows: • Clean the ceramic tiles with compressed air. Avoid directing air stream at gasket material between tile and heater body. The air pressure must be lower than 20 psig. • Clean venturi tube with compressed air. The air pressure must be lower than 20 psig.
Indication of back firing: • Loud ignition noise, followed by distinct hissing sound. • Little or no visible burning on the ceramic tile surface. • Combustion is taking place inside the burner body. WARNING: If heater backfires during operation, it must be turned off immediately. Cause & remedy of back firing: • Improper gas pressure entering the venturi tube: check gas supply pressure. • Damage of a ceramic tile and or gasket: - replace damaged part.
should be located no more than 120 ft from the furthest heater in the zone. Sufficient air supply must be provided. Exhauster Capacity: USA: Natural or mechanical means shall be provided to supply and exhaust at least 4ft3/min/1000Btuh (0.38m3/min/kW) Natural Gas input of installed heaters [4.5ft 3/ min/1000Btuh (0..43m3/min/kW) Propane input]. Some local codes may require an interlock to a dedicated exhaust fan. Consult your local code and ANSI Z223.

16. SEQUENCE OF OPERATION FOR FENWAL 35-60 DSI CONTROL Start up - Heat Mode: On a call for heat the Fenwal 35-60 control will reset, perform a self check routine, flash the diagnostic LED for up to four seconds. The gas valve and spark are energized commencing the trial for ignition period. When flame is detected during the trial for ignition, spark is shutoff immediately and the gas valve remains energized.
Cautions: 1. The ceramic insulator of the igniter assembly should not be in or close to the flame. 2. The electrode assembly should not be disassembled and care must be used in making minor gap adjustment. The spark electrode should have a gap spacing of 1/8”- 3/16” (3.12± 0.81 mm). If this spacing is not correct, the assembly must be carefully adjusted. 3. Exceeding the temperature limits can cause nuisance lockouts and premature electrode failure.
