MOUNTING (See Figure 1)
1. Layout heater locations to the desired heat affected work area.
2. Minimum spacing to walls and ceiling are —
A. One foot (12") from top of heater to ceiling.
B. Two feet (24") from side or end of heater to adjacent walls.
3. Minimum safe height above floor level for combustible mater-
ial is 6 feet (72"). However, if ceiling height permits, more
practical height is 8 feet or more to avoid high radiation inten-
sities at head level when one stands directly below heater.

Summary of Contents for Chromalox PG417-3

  • Page 1 Type SKR Infrared Comfort Heater Chromalox Type SKR radiant heaters are designed for indoor installation only, and are to be ceiling mounted with such spacing between heaters to project heat radiation downwards to maintain comfort level within the radiation field.
  • Page 2 OPERATION 1. Although most heaters operate at full capacity, it is possible to reduce heating capacity with an Input Controller (Chromalox Type VC or VCR — check factory) which can be manually set to turn on heaters from 4% to 100% of a 15 or 30 second operating cycle, providing, in effect, infinite control of heater output.
  • Page 3 The reflector is aluminum. DO NOT use alkali cleaners since alkalies will dull reflector. Mild non-alkaline cleaners, such as used for scouring kitchen sinks, amy be used. Reflectors are replaceable and may be purchased from Chromalox. RENEWAL PARTS IDENTIFICATION Figure 6...
