Risk of electric shock Also note the following:...
Page 6 MORE PAD INDOOR AD INDOOR is a mat that self-modulates electrical consumption and self-adjusts maximum surface temperature; Absorption and surface temperature depend on the ability of the environment to absorb Warning the energy released by the mat. The lower the starting temperature, the higher the initial absorption (see chapter 7) and the lower the surface temperature reached.

MORE PAD INDOOR 6.1 LEGISLATIVE INFORMATION In the case of renovation or energy refurbishment, it is possible to derogate from the minimum internal living space height of 10 cm. This possibility is of fundamental importance when it is necessary to insert a radiant floor or ceiling system inside an existing building.

Page 18 MORE PAD INDOOR 7. DIMENSIONING Power output of the PAD INDOOR mat The nominal nameplate power, corresponding to the power consumption value at 36VDC, is delivered at a temperature between 5 and 10 C, the value at which the building envelope is normally placed in non-heated or frost- free conditions. The chart below shows the self-adjusting capacity of the technopolymer as the contact temperature of the mat changes.
Page 19 MORE PAD INDOOR For dimensioning, proceed in the following logical sequence: • Determine the peak demand, in W, of the room to be heated; • Calculate the development in metres of PAD INDOOR as a function of the W/m yield; increase the development by at least 30% to take into account the share of energy dispersed towards the separation insulation with the building envelope.
Page 20 MORE PAD INDOOR Example: If we were to imagine a wall heating system consisting of 9 strips of PAD INDOOR, each 2 metres long (60 W) and connected to a 600W power supply driver, we could assume the following line combinations: PAD INDOOR power cord length of DRIVER cord section mm2...
Page 21 MORE PAD INDOOR 8. POWER SUPPLY DRIVERS • The PAD INDOOR must be supplied via the system’s power supply DRIVERS; • DRIVER 320, DRIVER 600 and DRIVER 1000 are rectifier transformers with the output line, 36 VDC side,protected against short circuit, overload, overvoltage and overtemperature; •...

Page 23 MORE PAD INDOOR DRIVER 1000 This is an “open” version of the appliance, which is preferable if it can be installed in ventilated rooms, favouring vertical installation to facilitate convective exchange and avoid dust deposits.

Page 24 MORE PAD INDOOR Warning In order to ensure optimal conditions and a long service life for the power drivers, it is important to: • Install them so that the heat is dissipated effectively; • Do not locate the power supply in a place where the ambient temperature tends to exceed 25°C; •...
Page 25 MORE PAD INDOOR 9. PAD INDOOR SYSTEM INSTALLATION Check the flatness and cleanliness of the insulation required for thermal decoupling between the radiant system and the building envelope. In the case of underfloor installation, a vapour barrier should be laid underneath the insulation layer to protect against rising damp.

Page 31 MORE PAD INDOOR Using the self-amalgamating bitumen tape supplied (series 3861), insulate the copper parts of the cable and the crimp terminal from oxidation. Press well to release the air trapped in the “sandwich” in order to make the bituminous parts adhere to make the contact watertight.
Page 32 MORE PAD INDOOR Valid for floor, wall or ceiling Fasten the strings with metal staples on both sides and at each metre, taking care to lap only the outside of the polymer by 2/3 mm, without touching the braids of the electrical struts. Alternatively, use plastic nails or paper tape about 5 cm long.
Page 33 MORE PAD INDOOR Valid for the wall and/or ceiling Plasterboard finish The string centre distance will depend on the peak thermal power to be delivered; if there are no specific requirements, it is advisable to ensure a longitudinal centre distance of approximately 400 mm (axis-axis), a measurement that matches the majority of metal counter spreader structures (structure present in the case of false ceilings).
Page 34 MORE PAD INDOOR Valid for wall only Temporarily secure mats to the substrate with solvent-free reinforced double-sided tape, such as MAPEI Mapecontact, 240 mm wide. Once the electrical wiring and functional test is complete, finish by laying a 5x5 mm section fibreglass mesh reinforcement for coats, to be fixed with (stainless steel) metal clips or plastic dowels for coats.
