240V-1phase Unit Heater
WARNING
Model: KBP2406 is 240 volt. It is important that you
verify the power supply voltage is the same as the
nameplate voltage of the heater. Improper installation
or failure to follow the procedures as outlined in this
manual can result in damage to the heater. Note that
the KBP2406 will operate at 208 volt but will produce
25% less wattage and draw 13% less Amps. Discon-
nect all power from the heater at the main service
panel before attempting to install or service this unit.
All electrical wiring must conform to local electrical
codes. Heater circuit must be properly protected.
Mounting Heater
Locate a stud in ceiling or wall and securely fasten bracket with a
minimum of two #12 fasteners 1-1/4" long. Attach heater to bracket
with 3/8" x 1" wingnut & lock washer supplied. Install the lock washer
between the bracket and heater. Do not put lock washer on the plastic
wingnut. After desired air discharge position has been determined
tighten wingnut so heater will not pivot.
Location of Heater
The heater should be installed out-of-reach of persons. The direction
of airflow should not be restricted by machinery, beams, etc. and
the airflow should wipe exposed walls, rather than blowing directly
at them. When more than one heater is used in an area the heaters
should be arranged so that the air discharge of each heater supports
the airflow of the others to provide best circulation of warm air. (see
airflow chart)
