1 Introduction This operation manual is intended to familiarize the User with salient features, operation, assembly and operating procedures for PLANAR–9D-12, PLANAR–9D-24, (hereinafter called «the heater») intended for regulated heating of various compartments of a motorized vehicles at atmospheric temperatures as low as -45°С (-113F).
Table 1 3 Safety Measures 3.1 The installation of the heater and its fittings shall be performed by authorized organizations only. 3.2 The heater may only be used for the purposes specified herein. 3.3 The fuel supply line shall not be installed inside the passenger compartment or cabin of a motor vehicle.
4 Description of Heater Structure and Operation The heater operates independently from the vehicle engine. The fuel and electric power supply is provided by the vehicle. See figure 4.1 for the heater wiring diagram. The heater is a self-contained heating device comprising the following: - heating device (see figure 4.2 for basic components thereof);...
5 Heater control unit The control unit and the control panel control the heater. The control unit performs the following functions: а) initial diagnostics (serviceability check) of heater fittings during ignition, b) diagnostic of heater elements throughout operation, c) heater activation/deactivation by command from control panel; d) combustion process control;...

Installation requirements 8.1 Heater installation Install the heater according to figure 8.1. Peace of installation for the heater should be flat. Position the heater’s inlet vent in such a way to prevent absorption of vehicle/heater exhaust gas in normal operating conditions. The distance between the walls/partitions and the edge of the inlet vent shall be at least 100 mm (see figure 8.1).

Attention! At installation of a heater into the volume of vans (isothermal boxes, minibuses, etc.) the arrangement of an exhaust pipe and an air inlet on opposite boards is inadmissible. Installation of exhaust and air intake pipes through one board is correct. The distance between them has to exclude repeated absorption of exhaust gases through an air inlet (not less 200mm).

8.4.3 Fuel intake from return fuel pipe with T-connector Allowed fuel intake from the return fuel pipe (unloading fuel from the engine to the tank) with T-connector. Return fuel pipe should be free of pressure and goes at the bottom of the fuel tank.
8.5 Installation of heater electric circuit Heater wire harnesses shall be installed in compliance with the heater wiring system as shown in figure 4.1. When installing, do not allow the wire harnesses to become overheated, deformed or dislodged during vehicle use. Attach the harnesses to the vehicle fittings using plastic clamps.
ATTENTION! 1. When performing initial ignition following installation, the fuel supply line should be filled with fuel using a fuel pumping device until the fuel level reaches the inlet plug of the heater. If there is no pumping device, restart the heater as many times as necessary to fill the fuel supply line.
To fix breakdowns, proceed to the following steps: 1) remove the fuel supply pump from the vehicle; using a wrench (F/A 17), fix the pump in place, unscrew the pipe stub and remove the filter (see figure 10). Do fix the pump in place using surfaces other than surface A when removing and installing the pipe stub;...
12 Transportation & storage 12.1 The heaters are safe to transport and may be transported by any means of transport, including air and rail transport providing the packed products are protected from atmospheric precipitations and climatic factors as per requirements specified in section 5 of GOST 15150-69 and mechanical effects as per requirements specified in category C of GOST 23216-78.
