2. GENERAL
Ceramic heaters are high intensity radiant appliances, using ceramic
emitter elements as the energy source. The emitters radiate their
energy primarily in the long-wave infrared waveband with high energy
conversion efficiency and good heat penetrating properties.
The heaters are supplied complete with wall mounting brackets; the 3
and 4.5 kW heaters are also supplied with a 1m length of high
temperature mains cable. Their robust construction makes them
suitable for most types of industrial and commercial situations. An
outline drawing of the units, together with their overall dimensions is
shown in figure 1.

3. SAFETY NOTES
a) The heaters should not be operated in ambient temperatures greater
0
than 30 C (86
shortened.
b) The heaters should not be operated in areas subject to continuously
high humidity, or excessive dust. Corrosive atmospheres should
also be avoided.
c) These radiant heaters are capable of projecting a significant amount
of radiant energy for a considerable distance in front of the
reflector. Great care should be taken with their mounting, if there
are flammable materials in the vicinity. These heaters must not be
used in areas subject to flammable vapours such as paint solvents or
petrol fumes.
4. INSTALLATION
The mounting position and spacing of these units will depend on the
mounting height and reference should be made to the technical data to
determine the optimum position. The minimum recommended mounting
heights are as follows:
HSCEH7115N
HSCEH7230N
HSCEH7345N
For wall mounting, a bracket arrangement is supplied as standard and
this is shown in figure 2. With the unit wall mounted, it is essential that
the radiant energy is directed away from the wall. The minimum
clearances from the ceiling or the adjacent walls are shown in figure 3.
For maximum heating effect on the occupants of the room, the angle of
the front face of the unit to the horizontal should be about 45
As well as an efficient conversion of electrical energy into radiant heat
energy, the effectiveness of radiant heaters depends on efficient
absorption of this energy by the people in the building. More efficient
absorption is obtained if the radiant heat is directed from one or both
sides of the person. In any situation, the optimum angle for the heaters
will be with the plane of the reflectors at about 45
Heating schemes should be designed such that the area to be heated is
effectively covered by units which are mounted close to this angle.
