1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Basic Information
The instructions in this manual apply to Model UF Series 2 gas-fired
natural draught air heaters. Model UF heaters have an axial fan for air
delivery.
These heaters are designed for overhead suspension and are suitable
for indoor installation only.
A permanent electricity supply of 230 volts, 50 Hz, single phase is
required for all UF Models.
Models UF heaters are Appliance Type B
contained warm air units supplied ready for installation on site.
They are fitted with a permanent pilot. A thermoelectric flame su-
pervision device monitors the pilot flame to prevent an explosive
condition occurring.
When the external controls call for heat, the multifunctional control
valve opens, the main burner ignites and supplies heat to the heat
exchanger. After approximately 45 seconds the air delivery fan will
start to run and supply warm air.
When the required room temperature is reached, the main burner will
shut down leaving the fan running to cool down the heat exchanger.
When cool enough, the fan thermostat will turn off the fan.
