General safety instructions Damage to health Prolonged time spent in a heated sauna cabin can lead to over- heating of the body (hyperthermia) which may cause serious health problems and even death. Hyperthermia occurs when the core temperature of the body exceeds the norm by a few degrees. Symptoms of hyperthermia include fever, dizziness, lethargy, sleepiness, and fainting.
General safety instructions Each sauna cabin must have air inlets and outlets. The air inlets and outlets may be installed below or behind the sauna heater, approx. 5 to 10 cm above the floor. The minimum dimensions of the air inlets and outlets can be found here: 2.4 Technical data, ...

Mounting Remove the outer casing (D). To do this, swivel the outer casing forward and lift it upwards. Setting up the heater Move the pallet with the heater as close to the pre-defined installation site as possible. CAUTION! The heater weighs a minimum of 112 kg. Four people should always move the heater.
Installation Installation This chapter describes how MEGA is connected to the relay boxes. Connection diagram for connecting MEGA to the sauna system The sauna control unit, the relay boxes, and the MEGA heater must be con- nected as shown in the circuit diagrams. Please observe the installation and operating instructions for the control unit and relay boxes.
Installation Connection diagrams for heater The heater is connected to the two relay boxes with four connection cables. Each heating coil is connected to both relay boxes with two cables. The heating coil cable connection is identical for each heating coil. The internal wiring differs depending on the heater output.

Installation General instructions for electrical installation Observe the following regulations when installing sauna heaters: DIN VDE 0100 Part 703: This most recent version of the standard, applicable since February 2006, under amendment of paragraph 703.412.05, states the following: “The additional protection must be provided for all of the sauna's electric circuits by one or more residual current devices (RCDs) with a rated differential current no greater than 30 mA, with the exception of sauna heaters.”...
Installation Heating time limitation Information for the American market: If this sauna heater is operated without supervision by personnel, a timer must be installed. This timer must disconnect the power supply entirely from the mains supply within one hour of the sauna heater being switched off.
Commissioning Commissioning Before the heater can be commissioned, it must be filled with sauna stones, which are available as optional accessories. The heater switches on together with the relay boxes. It is operated via the control panel. Before commissioning the heater, ensure that the air inlets are free of lint.
Selecting stones suitable for infusions Ceramic stones behave differently from natural stones when in- fused. Use only original stones from EOS. Filling stones Thoroughly rinse the stones with running water. Stack the stones loosely in the rock store, leaving sufficient space be- tween them.
Commissioning Commissioning by remote control If you switch on the heater using the remote control, ensure that no objects are placed on the heater. A suitable safety device (e.g. EOSafe D/L) can be used to prevent this. Infusion Before the first infusion can begin, the cabin must be sufficiently heated. The temperature sensor checks the temperature and, via the control panel, indicates when the desired temperature has been reached.
Maintenance Maintenance This sauna heater is made of low-corrosion material. To ensure a long service life, take care of and perform regular maintenance on your sauna heater. Ensure that openings in the intake area and heat reflectors are never blocked. These can easily become blocked with lint and dust as fresh air is drawn in.
Maintenance Replacing sauna stones CAUTION! Caution: stones may be hot. Allow the stones to cool for at least 45 minutes before you remove the old stones. Remove each stone individually. Check each stone for damage. Sort out any stones with severe damage. Rinse the stones with cold water.
