NOTES:
1) The control unit must be connected directly to a 10 ft.
aluminized steel body section in all configurations.
2) Joining of two 90° elbows directly together to form a
"Z" shape is NOT permitted.
3) Any configuration of components not shown in the
iliustrations may be used except as noted in 1 and 2
above.

LTS 40-175 - HEATER ASSEMBLY/JOINING OF BODY SECTIONS_
During field assembly of the LTS series heater body sections, the recommended procedure is as follows:
1.
Before hanging heater sections, first determine the actual layout of the system (see Section 10 for details).
Consideration must also be taken for flue pipe, fresh air ducting, gas piping, etc., before hanging the heater. Typical
suspension methods are shown in Section 17. DO NOT relocate the tube suppoii/hanger brackets, especially at the
control end of the heater.
2.
Hang each heater body section individually. DO NOT attach the heater body sections together on the ground and attempt
to hang the entire system at onetime. The weight of the Individual heater body sections can cause misalignment and
damage to the heater.
3.
Join the body sections together and secure with tube couplings as follows:
AWARNING:
The following coupling tightening Instructions must be followed properly to avoid future problems.
a.
Place the compression coupling over the end of the tube from one body section, with the tightening bolts located on
the bottom and facing the installer. NOTE: There is a small hole at the centerline of the coupling that can be used
to sight the end of the tube.
b.
Partially tighten the bolt nearest the end of the tube (approximately half closed).
c.
Slide the ends of the tube from the opposite body section into the coupling. Make sure both tube ends are butted
together.
d.
Finish tightening both bolts to 40-60 ft.lbs. torque to ensure a complete seal.
e.
Check to ensure that the hardware is completely closed and that the band is seated on the reaction block and
interference pins as illustrated below.
f.
Check to see if the reaction block is firmly seated on the tube.
g.
Self-drilling screws are provided to prevent any possible movement of the tubes from the coupling. Install the
screws as shown using an electric or air screwdriver with approximately 2500 rpm speed. Pre-punched holes in the
coupling make it easier to install these self-drilling screws.
h.
Once all the heater body sections are attached, make sure that the heater system is level. If it is not, slight
adjustments can be made using the turnbuckles. (See Section 17.)
tIMPORTANT: NEVER REUSE A COUPLING.
Always Install a new coupling only and torque as per Instructions above and the diagrams that follow.
