UNIT MOUNTING AND OPERATION SAFETY PRECAUTIONS • Disconnect the unit from power mains prior • Unpack the unit with care. to any installation operations. • While installing the unit follow the safety • Do not lay the power cable of the unit in regulations specific to the use of electric close proximity to heating equipment.
NK…U PURPOSE The heater is intended to heat up the supply air entering the ventilation system. The built-in temperature control module or the integral control unit ensure that air duct temperature is automatically maintained at the preset level. Being a component unit it may not be commissioned for standalone operation.
TECHNICAL DATA The unit is designed for indoor application at ambient temperature from -30 °C up to +40 °C and relative humidity up to 80 %. The unit is capable of maintaining the duct temperature in the following range: from -10 °C to +40 °C (NK...U (Un) units rated from 0.6 kW to 2.4 kW) from -30 °C to +30 °C (NK...U units rated from 3.0 kW to 54 kW) The heater is rated as a class I electric appliance.

MOUNTING AND SET-UP READ THIS USER’S MANUAL CAREFULLY PRIOR TO THE UNIT INSTALLATION. AFTER TRANSPORTATION OR STORAGE UNDER BELOW ZERO TEMPERATURES KEEP THE UNIT IN THE SPECIFIED OPERATION CONDITIONS FOR AT LEAST 4 HOURS BEFORE POWERING UP. Prior to the heater installation check the heater for the integrity and reliability of the heating element fixation. The working position of the heater must ensure unimpeded access to the junction box (control unit) and the RESET thermoswitch manual reset button mounted inside the control unit.
NK…U CONNECTING RECTANGULAR AIR DUCTS TO THE HEATER CONNECTION TO POWER MAINS DISCONNECT THE UNIT FROM POWER SUPPLY PRIOR TO ANY ELECTRIC INSTALLATION OPERATIONS. THE FAN MUST BE CONNECTED TO POWER MAINS BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. THE RATED ELECTRICAL PARAMETERS OF THE UNIT ARE GIVEN ON THE MANUFACTURER’S LABEL. ANY INTERNAL CONNECTION MODIFICATIONS ARE NOT ALLOWED AND RESULT IN WARRANTY LOSS.
