Page 3: Clearances To Combustibles
CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES The clearance to combustible materials represents the minimum distance that must be maintained between the heater and a nearby surface. The stated clearance to combustibles represents a surface temperature of 90 degree Fahrenheit (32 degrees Celsius) above room temperature. Building material with a low heat tolerance may be subject to degradation of lower temperatures. - Page 4 CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES Length Input (BTU) Hangers Weight Model inches Clearance to Combustibles ( BELOW SIDES BACK(45 DEGREES) ft .

Page 8: Heater Expansion
WARNING Where there is the possibility of exposure to combustible airborne materials or vapour, consult the local fire inspector's office, the fire insurance carrier or other applicable authorities for approval of the proposed installation. Do not use in an atmosphere containing halogenated hydrocarbons or other corrosive chemicals. Some compounds in the environment can cause an accelerated rate of corrosion to the heat exchanger. - Page 9 WARNING START-UP SMOKE CONDITION During start up, the heating of material coatings used in the production process of tubes and reflectors will create smoke during the initial period of operation. This condition is normal and temporary. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation to adequately clear any smoke from the space.

Page 10: Installations Other Than Space Heating
INSTALLATION IN COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT HANGARS Low intensity radiant tube heaters are suitable for use in aircraft hangars when installed in accordance with the latest edition of the Standard for Aircraft hangars, ANSI/NFPA No. 409 in the USA, or the Canadian Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, B149.1 A minimum clearance of 10 ft (3m) above either the highest fuel storage compartment or the highest engine enclosure of the highest aircraft, which may occupy the hangar. - Page 11 GENERAL INSTALLATION PROCEDURE PRE-INSTALLATION SURVEY It is recommended that a full heating design, including a heat loss calculation be conducted. Heater sizing and placement must consider available mounting height, sources of heat loss, and clearances to combustibles with respect to stored material, moveable objects (cranes, vehicles, lifts, overhead doors, etc) sprinkler systems, and other obstructions on the site.

Page 12: Installation
INSTALLATION Straight, L-shaped & “U” shaped Heaters 1. Suspend hanging supports with #10 chain, adhering strictly to the hanger locations describe in the diagram following. The first hanger must be no more than 6 inches from the burner flange. Suspend from the top ring on the hanger if the reflectors are to be horizontal and the side ring if the reflectors are to be angled. - Page 13 Make sure to secure the tubes using the 3 screws provided as indicated in the drawing below.

Page 15: Suspending The System
SUSPENDING THE SYSTEM Inadequate or improper suspension of the tube heater can result in collapse of the system, property damage, and personal injury or death. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that the hardware and structural supports from which the heater is suspended are sound and of adequate strength to support the weight and expansion forces of the heater. -
Page 16: Gas Piping
GAS PIPING 1. All gas piping and connections shall be made in accordance with local codes and CAN/CGA B-149 or ANSI standard Z223.1. 2. Connect the burner to gas supply with flexible gas connector. 3. A drip leg must be installed in the gas line at the heater inlet connection tee followed by a pipe drop to the heater. - Page 17 WARNING Never use a match or other flame to test for gas leaks. Use soap and water solution to check for leaks to all connections and joints and if bubbles appear, leaks have been detected and must be corrected. Never operate the heater with leaking connections. The supply system should be checked first with heater turned off followed by another check with the heater on.
- Page 18 VENTING 1. The Easy Radiant tube system has been approved for vented and un-vented applications. When installed un-vented it must be electrically interlocked to an exhaust fan with an air proving switch. The exhaust fan must provide exhaust in the amount of 300 c.f.m. for every 100,000 BTU input in Canada and the amount of 400 c.f.m.
- Page 19 : When located in a building with a negative air condition, or in a dusty or dirty atmosphere such as a wood working shop, poultry barn or foundries, combustion air from outside the negative or dirty area to the burner is mandatory. The combustion air supply should be minimum 4-inch diameter seamless air duct, connected to fresh air adapter provided on combustion air blower.
