Operation
To operate this heater, ensure air is flowing and ener-
gize the main supply disconnect. Set the controlling
device to the desired temperature.
During initial heating, it is recommended to slowly
ramp up the process set point and inspect the heating
system for problems.
DO NOT operate the heater at voltages higher than the
recommended use.

minimum flow range (4.8 SCFM)—reduced flow can
shorten heater life.
