Page 9: Clearance To Combustibles
Clearance To Combustibles A general clearance of 18” (0.5 m) in every direction is recommended (for servicing only) around each burner to ensure adequate air flow in and around the Heating System. In addition to this it is very important to observe the minimum clearance to combustibles at all times to avoid any possibility of property damage or personal injury. - Page 10 Clearance to Combustibles Table 2: Minimum Clearance to Combustibles Reflector Configurations Horizontal 2” 2" 18" 25" (46) (63) 45" 58" (114) (147) 18" 25" (46) (63) 45° Reflector Tilt 4" 4" (10) (10) 4" 4" (10) (10) 40" 50" (102) (127) 38"...

It is required that the first hanging point be 2" to 8" from the burner mounting flange, and tube weld seam must face down, refer to Figure 6 for more details.
- Page 14 Installation • Tighten the cradle loops of the first hanger with the “J-Bolt” found in the burner box, to snugly hold the combustion tube from rotating see Figure 8. Note: For all coupling joints, ensure that the tube joint is in the center of the coupling length, and that the overlap joint of the coupling is above the centerline of the tube.

Page 29: Electrical Wiring
Electrical Wiring General Requirements Heaters are normally controlled by line voltage (120V) or low voltage (24V) thermostats. Line voltage thermostats are wired directly while low voltage thermostats use a relay. In all cases, heaters must be grounded in accordance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 in the US, and the Canadian Electric Code, CSA C22.1 in Canada, and must comply with all local requirements. -
Page 30: Burner Operation
Burner Operation Starting Sequence of Operation • Turn the thermostat up. When the thermostat calls for heat, the blower motor will energize. • When the motor approaches nominal running RPM, the air-proving switch closes and activates the ignition module. • The ignition module, after a pre-purge period of approximately 30 seconds, energizes the igniter. Additionally, the gas valve is energized for this ignition trial period of 15 seconds. -
