Panel number wiring. Final installation comprises the panel itself, which should be installed as late in the building process as possible to provide the best protection of mechanical parts against dust and paint residue, as well as shocks, impacts and other damage. Installation duct The panels are supplied with self-jointing rubber strips, which “absorb” small inaccuracies in the installation duct. To achieve the visually best result, it is necessary to observe the measurements of the installation duct as precisely as possible, particularly the duct width of 139 mm (see page 6).
Unpacking the panel 1/3 Check the panel number on the box. Break the seal on the box. Unpacking the panel 2/3 Open the box. Lift the gratings off the panel and place them on the opened part of the box. NB! Avoid mixing gratings from different panels as they are cut to individual dimensions. Remove the panel from the box. Unpacking the panel 3/3 Under the panel is a protective sheet of strong cardboard. Use this to protect the panel against dust, impacts, etc. Maj 2007...
Positioning of installation fittings 1/2 Check that the installation duct meets the specified dimensions. If the duct is deeper 139 ± 1 mm than 73 mm, a stable support must be cre- ated for the panel. 63 - 73 mm Duct length can be calculated as follows: • Panels shorter than 6000 mm: the length equals total panel length + 5 mm. • Panels longer than 6000 mm: the duct is extended further 1 mm per meter panel. Positioning of installation fittings 2/2 Fix the enclosed installation fitting to the base of the installation duct. Connect the system pipes. NB! Check that the flow and return pipes are correctly positioned. Installing the panel 1/4 1. Flow 2. Return 3. Flexible pipes 4. Terminal 5. Motor Maj 2007...

Installing the panel 2/4 Lower the FloorLine panel into the installation duct. Installing the panel 3/4 Attach the flexible pipes to the installation fittings. NB! The enclosed gaskets must be used. Installing the panel 4/4 Tighten the joints with a moderate torque. You are recommended to use an NV24 open ring spanner (order no. 088H4821). Maj 2007...
Checking the joints 1/1 After tightening, pressurise the system and check for possible leaks. Power connection 1/2 Connect cables from the CHR room thermostat (or BMS system) and from the 24 V power supply. Power connection 2/2 Wiring must be carried out according to the electrical curcuit diagrams on page 13-14. Maj 2007...
Adjusting the panel 1/2 Adapt the panel to the floor height using the integrated adjusting screws located at suitable intervals along the full length of the panel. Use a 2.5 mm Allen key. NB! On account of the panel’s load strength, it is important for all adjusting screws to be adjusted correctly. Adjusting the panel 2/2 Put the floor grating in place and check that it is aligned with the floor surface. Opening the guide profile 1/4 Remove the floor grating from the panel. Maj 2007...

Opening the guide profile 2/4 Release the guide profile from the pipe fixture by pulling sightly. Repeat this along the full length of the panel. Opening the guide profile 3/4 The guide profile can now be lifted to give access to the base of the panel. Opening the guide profile 4/4 When the guide profile is closed, secure it with light pressure on the Velcro pads. Maj 2007...
Connecting several panels in series 1/5 Push the panels together. The joint blocks (A) ensure precise panel jointing. Extend the flexible pipes to reach the fittings on the next panel. Connecting several panels in series 2/5 To give room for thermal expansion, pull the panels 2 mm apart. Connecting several panels in series 3/5 Insert gaskets between the flexible pipes and the fittings before fastening. Maj 2007...
