REMKO GPS series Safety notes Always observe the respective local building The units must be installed away from traffic ■ zones - by crane, for example. A safety zone with code and fire prevention guidelines as well as the guidelines of the accident prevention and a clearance of 1 m must be ensured insurance associations when using the units.
Unit installation Application area Selection of the installation location With the REMKO gas wall heaters from the GPS With determination of the installation location, range, it is possible to heat small rooms, such the requirements must be coordinated in regard to:...
Function of the units the burner can be operated with gases of the second The 2-stage gas wall heaters of the GPS series have family (natural gas - group H and L) and with gases been developed for the heating of industrial and of the third family (butane and propane).

Fans Safety thermostat(s) with vertical air flow The switching on of the fans is time-controlled A safety thermostat (STB) is installed on the units by the control board, whereby the timing begins with for each fan, for manual resetting. the switching-on of the main burner. If the safety thermostats are triggered then a safety shutdown is also triggered.

REMKO GPS series Cycle of operation The units from the GPS range are fully-automatic hot In order to switch the hot air heater off, the switch air heaters, which are equipped with an electronic on the control panel must be set to the “0” position.

Modulation The gas wall heaters are units with 2-stage gas burner modulation, whereby outputs between the minimum and maximum settings are possible during operation. The highest output serves for raising the room temperature quickly when switching on the units. The second stage enables a slower heat-up speed of the space, which means that the burner is required to switch on and off less often.

However, it is If the temperature detected by the thermostat necessary to ensure that the units are operated with is too high, it disconnects and disables the lowest necessary temperature value, in order the operation of the unit.
As a prerequisite for any guarantee claims to be considered, it is essential that the ordering party or their representative complete and return the "certificate of guarantee" to REMKO GmbH & Co. KG at the time when the units are purchased and commissioned.
Installation The following instructions for installation and set-up Ventilation openings of the units are intended exclusively for authorised technicians. The rooms where gas-powered units are operated All safety notes must be observed without fail. must have one or more permanent openings (windows or doors).

Small guide holes are provided for correct arrangement of the suspension brackets. These must be aligned at the top edge of the unit. Refer to corresponding figure here. With a vertical unit installation (only possible with the GPS series), a fan thermostat must be additionally installed.
Flue gas connection The units work with a closed combustion cycle. The fan is located in front of the heat exchanger. Individually, the units are classified for the following versions: The flue gas evacuation and/or combustion air supply must be planned and executed in observance B23/C13/C33/C43/C53/C63 of the respective local guidelines.

REMKO GPS series If there is a combustion air supply duct, the pressure Condensate water losses must be added to those of the flue gas pipe. With long pipes condensate can form, because the temperature of the flue gas drops below If the sum total of the pressure losses lies above the condensation temperature.
