Stacking Height Sign New - Schwank ecoSchwank-X 6 - IL-X 25 Installation & Owner's Manual

The clearance to combustible materials represents the minimum distance that must be main-
tained between the heater and a nearby surface. The stated clearance to combustibles
represents a surface temperature of 90F° (50C°) above room temperature.
It is the installer's responsibility to ensure that building materials with a low heat toler-
ance which may degrade at lower temperatures are protected to prevent degradation.
Examples of low heat tolerance materials include vinyl siding, fabrics, some plastics,
filmy materials, etc.
WARNING
The signs must be posted either adjacent to the IR heating system thermostats or in the ab-
sence of such thermostats, in a conspicuous place.
For your convenience a "peel and stick" sign is provided with this heater.
Use a permanent marker to record the required dimensions on the sign.
To calculate the value 'H' ( Maximum Material Stacking Height):
Maximum Material Stacking Height: H = T (distance from heater to floor) minus C (the com-
bustibles clearance below the heater)
or H = T - C
 Measure the on-site distance between bottom
of the heater and the floor = 'T' inches (cm).
 Refer to Table 1 to get the value 'C' (clearance
to combustibles below heater) that corresponds
to the model you are installing
 Subtract the clearance below the heater 'C'
from 'T' to get value 'H' (maximum material
stacking height).
 Enter this value 'H' on the sign with permanent
marker.
Then, for the heater model/size being installed,

refer to the information in Figure 1 and Table 1
to get the values for dimensions 'S', 'F' and 'B'
(F and B are for 'angle mounted' heaters only).

In locations used for the storage of combustible materials signs
must be posted specifying the maximum permissible stacking height to
maintain the required clearances from the heater to the combustibles.
Post this sign as instructed above.
