Warnings • Read this manual carefully before installation and use and keep it for future reference.

Page 3: Installation
Packaging Normally (depending model and order quantity) the heaters are packed per 1, 2, 4 of 6 in a box. Always check the heaters for transport damage directly after receiving them. Note that the heaters will be a bit discoloured by temperature due to a 5 minutes quality check after manufacturing. The heaters are pre-assembled. - Page 4 Safety distance to combustible materials The heaters produce heat by radiation and by combustion gases. It is important to take the following distances in account from the heaters to combustible materials. This is to avoid fire or overheating. Do not use the heaters in situations where the distances to combustibles are smaller. Never store gases or inflammable liquids or easy combustible materials in close vicinity of the heaters.
- Page 5 The gas hose shall be hanging free and have a distance of minimal 1 meter from the ground (AP-1, AP- 3 as much as possible). This to make sure that animals will not damage the hose. Connect the hose via an individual gas tap to the central gas supply.
- Page 6 For the AP-1 and AP-3 it is sufficient to have one gas cylinder (11 kg or larger) per heater. For the AP- 2 a minimum of 1,5 gas cylinders (of 11 kg) per heater is needed for a guaranteed gas supply. For a 45- kg gas cylinder a maximum of two AP-2 heaters is recommended.

Page 7: Operation
Operation New heaters New heaters need a cleaning period before they are ready for operation. Turn the ventilation to maximum position or place the heaters outside in the open air. Fire the heaters for at least two hours on full capacity to burn-off oily and greasy remnants of the production. -
Page 8: Service And Maintenance
Service and maintenance General The frequency of maintenance is strongly depending on the quality of the combustion air and the intensity of use. When used in poultry houses, maintenance is advised every 6 weeks or by changing the animals. By use in clean environment conditions, the maintenance period can be extended but not longer than 6 months. - Page 9 Internal cleaning The internal part of a heater can be cleaned with compressed air or with a tube brush. If needed do this every day. First clean the outside of the burner tube. Then the inside of the venturi and burner tube via the dust filter connection.
