Typical Suspension Methods.10 - Space-Ray LTS Series Assembly, Installation And Operation Instructions

17) TYPICAL SUSPENSION METHODS
Various means of suspending the heater can be used. See the following drawings for typical examples.
1. Use only noncombustible materials for hangers and brackets.
2. A minimum No. 2 chain with a working load limit of 115 lbs. is required.
3. Turnbuckles should be used with chains to allow leveling of the heater. All "S" hooks and eye bolts must be manually
crimped closed by the installer.
3. When using rigid means for heater suspension (rod, flat bar, etc.) provide sufficient lengths orswingjoints to compensate
for expansion. See Figures b and c.
4. Heaters subject to vibration must be provided with vibration isolating hangers.
5. Heaters must not be supported by gas or electric supply lines and must be suspended from a permanent structure with
adequate load capacity.
