About These Instructions
This document is part of the product. These instructions
describe how to install and connect the refl ector heating
systems ESO 180 H, and ESO 180 HL.
► Do not install or use the devices until you have read and
understood this document.
► Keep this document for reference throughout the service life
of the devices. Pass this document on to any new owner or

Features
• Flexible special heating mats with integrated heat insulation
and PTFE insulated heating elements
• Good heat distribution due to an optimal fi t of the heating
mats on the refl ector
• Element carrier of aluminium foil, self-adhesive foil strips at
the front
• Thermal insulation made of bubble wrap with refl ective layer,
4 mm
• Built-in sensor to additionally defi ne the heating temperature
via a control
Scope of Supply
• 4 heating mats with 3.5 m cable (H05RNF) and heating
temperature sensor
• Mesh reinforced aluminium foil, 0.05 x 17 m
• Adhesive fi lm (white) for covering the aluminium foil, 0.075 x
17 m
• 4 elliptical segments made of white adhesive foil for covering
the outer contours of the heating mats
• 8 x cable ties, 360 mm
Transport and Storage
► If possible, transport and store the heating mats in their original packaging.
► Protect the heating mats against moisture and mechanical damage.
► Transport and store the heating mats only in the permitted temperature range between -40 and +80°C. Make sure there is no
condensation build-up.
Functional Description
The electric heating prevents snow and ice formation on the antenna refl ector surface which may lead to interruptions in satel-
lite reception. The heating for the antenna consists of four special heating mats with integrated heat insulation and PTFE insulated
heating elements. After installation, the heating mats fi t on the refl ector in an optimum way and guarantee a good heat distribution.
Two of the heating mats have an integrated temperature switch that turns o the heating at 80°C so that the system can be directly
operated at 230 V/50 Hz. To ensure e cient operation, we recommend the use of a control unit for the ESO 180 H. The control unit can
be operated with the built-in sensor, but also without a sensor. Possible system components:

ESO 180 HL: for exposed loca-
tions, with double the heating
power compared to ESO 180 H
(L = increased performance).
Operation without control possible
YES
A control unit is mandatory for
operating the ESO 180 HL. For this
purpose, the required temperature
sensor is built into the heating mat.
