Safety
The following sections provide safety
information about the gas
fire:
- Safety related to installation
- Gas and electrical units already installed
- Installation regulations
- Safety regulations for decorative elements
- Safety related to use
- Three safety measures for the gas fire
2.1
Safety related to installation
Installation of the gas fire requires diligent
pursuit of procedures. During installation,
please adhere to the regulations that apply to
safety and health in your country (the Working
Conditions Act, for example).
General installation instructions:
•
The procedures described may only be carried
out by authorised technical professionals.
•
Follow the installation procedures diligently to
avoid damage and accidents.
•
Use adequate protection resources during
installation.
•
Ensure that local circumstances such as gas
pressure and the type of gas are consistent with
the information on the data identification plate
of the gas fire.
•
Only install a gas fire in an area that has
sufficient ventilation in compliance with the
standards in force.
•
Always conduct a chimney calculation, as
indicated in the Chimney Calculation.
•
Always make use of a concentric flue duct
system that complies with the approval
conditions of your gas fire. Adhere to the
installation regulations as stated.
2.2
Gas and electrical units already
installed
Concentric flue duct system confirmation
The gas piping and gas control valve to the
fireplace need to be installed by an authorized
fitter and are not supplied with the appliance.
The diameter of the gas piping must be
determined for each appliance in compliance
with the directives in force:
•
NEN 1078 and NPR 3378 apply to The
Netherlands.
•
NBN D51-003 (chimney connection and
gas connection) applies to Belgium.
•
Arbeitsblatt G600 DVGW-TRGI applies to
Germany.
Checking the gas specifications
Check that the gas specifications match the
connection.
The data identification plate indicates the
suitable gas type and gas pressure of the gas
fire. This id plate is located on the left side of
the cooling slot on a metal plate. This can be
tilted upwards (see paragraph 5.5 ). To do this,
remove the front glass from the fireplace. A
second copy of the id plate is stuck on the
inside of the front cover of the user manual.
Ask Kalfire about the possibilities if you want to
use the gas fire in combination with another
type of gas.
Electrical installation confirmation
The electrical installation to the gas fire must be
installed by an approved fitter and is not
supplied with the appliance. Power
supply and required electrical power:
230V/60W VAC.
WARNING!
The gas fire needs a permanent power supply.
Errors recorded earlier are lost during any
interruption to power supply. Regular
interruption of the power supply impacts the
safety mechanisms, whereby hazardous
situations can arise.
WARNING!
If there is a two-phase network, an isolating
transformer must be installed. This transforms
the 2 phase network into a standard 1 phase
network of 230V.
2.3
Installation instructions
The following conditions must be adhered to
during installation:
•
Ensure sufficient ventilation where the
fireplace is to be installed.
WARNING!
Ensure sufficient ventilation in the area in which
the gas fire is to be installed. The installation
area is sufficiently ventilated if: The nominal
power of the appliance in kilowatt / content of
the installation area in cubic meters is less than
35.
