1.1
HI-SPEC J50 is an open-flued, fan assisted downflow, ducted warm air heater, which may be supplied with MODAIRFLOW
control and in combination with an ELJAN 6 water circulator. A non-MODAIRFLOW version is available as an option.
A Spillage Monitoring Device (TTB) is fitted which senses the temperature in the draught diverter, and shuts down the
appliance when this temperature rises due to the presence of flue gases.
1.2
The air heater output can be adjusted between 11.72kW (42.2MJ/h, 40,000Btu/h) and 14.65kW (57.75MJ/h, 50,000Btu/h).
"Summer air circulation" of unheated air is available by manual selection (see User's Instructions). ELJAN 6 output is 3.32kW
(11.5MJ/h, 11.340Btu/h).
Installation shall be in accordance with the current editions of:
Building Standards (Scotland) (Consolidation) Regulations
Building Regulations
Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations (as amended)
BS 7671 Institute of Electrical Engineers (I.E.E) Wiring Regulations
BS 6891 Installation of Low Pressure Gas Pipework of up to 28mm (R1) in domestic premises (2nd family gases).
