General
The EPX Convector is designed for wall mounting on the
wall brackets supplied. It should only be operated when in
the upright position as shown.
All models are splashproof to IPX4 standard.
Before connecting the heater check that the supply voltage is
the same as that stated on the heater.

Wall Mounting

IMPORTANT – The wall brackets supplied with the appliance
must be used. The heater should be positioned observing
the minimum clearances stated around the heater - see
Fig. 1.
DO NOT locate the heater immediately below a fixed socket
outlet or connection box.
1.
Remove wall mounting bracket from the back of the
heater by depressing the spring latch at the top of
each bracket - see Fig. 2.
2.
Fix the wall bracket securely to the wall through the
four screw holes provided.
3.
Present the heater to the wall bracket, and engage
lower slots in the back with bracket.
4.
Raise the heater to upright position and push the
heater onto brackets to engage top latch.
Operation
Switching On the Heater (see Fig. 3)
The button marked ' ' controls the electricity supply to the
electronic thermostat. An indicator beside the ' ' button
shows when the unit is powered 'ON'.
Setting Desired Temperature (see Fig. 3)
The heater is fitted with an adjustable thermostat enabling
the room temperature to be controlled by adjusting the slider
accordingly. The min setting '
temperature of approximately 5
protection against frost. The 'MAX' setting represents a room
temperature of approximately 30
when the elements are actually heating.

Turn on the heater using the ' ' button and move the
thermostat slider to the desired position. When the room
temperature has reached the desired level, the power to the
elements will be reduced, the heater will then maintain the
room temperature at the chosen level.
NOTE - Should your heater fail to come on when the
thermostat slider is at a low setting, this may be due to the
room temperature being higher than the thermostat setting.
Background Temperature
When used in conjunction with a remote programming device
supporting a background/setback setting, the heater will
automatically operate at a room temperature setting of 5
less than the thermostat setting when the programme is in
background/setback mode.
Limiting the thermostat setting
Before wall mounting the product the installer may wish to
limit the heat selection slider movement for the operator.
This may be achieved by removing the two plastic pins (see
'x' in Fig. 4) from the rear of the thermostat moulding using
pliers and inserting them in the preferred holes to limit the
slider movement.
Notes to the Installer

Test Mode

When the EPX Panel Heater is connected via a pilot wire
system, the test mode allows the installer to check whether
the heater is responding correctly to the incoming pilot wire
signal.
Before switching the heater on at the mains, place the
thermostat slider in the 'MAX' position, then press and hold
the ' ' button whilst switching on the mains.
The unit will now enter a test state for 4 mins. During this test
state the ' ' neon will indicate the pilot wire status:
