GENERAL PRECAUTIONS Even though this heater operates very close to 100 percent combustion efficiency, it still produces small amounts of carbon monoxide. • Carbon Monoxide (CO) is toxic. • Pregnant women, persons with a heart or lung condition, anemia or under the influence of alcohol, or those at high altitude, are more likely to be effected by Carbon Monoxide.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS WARNING! Read these electrical safety instructions thoroughly before connecting the product to the mains supply. Before switching the product on, make sure that the voltage of your electricity supply is the same as that indicated on the rating plate. This product is designed to operate on 230VAC 50Hz.
UNPACKING When unpacking, check the heater for possible shipping damage. Should any damage be apparent, please notify your CLARKE dealer immediately. Your heater is fully assembled,- only the electrical and gas supplies need connecting. Retain any plastic cover caps (attached to the inlet connector and hose/regulator assembly) for future storage.
In order to reduce the risk of icing up when operating at long periods at maximum capacity, you should use a larger capacity gas bottle, or two/three bottles in parallel, as shown in Fig 2. • The ‘Tee’ piece and ‘pigtails’ are readily available from your builders merchants or gas supplier.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION Understanding the basic operation of the heater will reinforce the need to maintain the unit in top condition at all times, whilst always observing the safety precautions. The heater comprises four basic systems: 1. The gas system. 2.
that after a few seconds, the gas valve button may be released and the flame is established. SAFETY CONTROL SYSTEM Should the flame extinguish for any reason, the thermocouple will quickly cool, causing the Flame Failure valve to close, shutting off the gas supply. Similarly, should there be a power failure, causing the fan motor to stop, the Safety Shut-Off valve solenoid will become de-energised, and therefore shut off the gas supply.
Should the flame extinguish when the ignition button is released, wait for 1 minute, before repeating the operation. • Turning the flame intensity control valve anti-clockwise will increase the gas supply and therefore the output, clockwise to decrease. If ignition is difficult or irregular, ensure the fan is operating and that the air inlet and outlet are completely clear.
