KBP2406-3MP 240V 1-3phase
Unpack & Inspect Your New Heater
Remove heater from box and inspect for any damage. Verify
you have received the mounting bracket and accessories.
Tools Needed
You will need the following tools to install your unit heater:
• screwdriver (Phillips head & slotted)
• wire cutters
• pliers
• adjustable wrench
• electric drill
Hardware Needed
You will also need the following hardware:
• adequate gauge & length of wire for your application.
• proper size fuses or breakers to handle amperage.
• proper wire connectors for your application.
• fasteners appropriate size to mount heater.
In certain applications conduit may be required by code. Check
local electrical codes. If you want to be able to turn the heater
be sure to use flexible conduit.
Mounting Height
When the air flow of the heater is directed vertically or
horizontally the minimum mounting height is 6 feet (8 feet in
Canada). Mounting heights depend upon building utilization
and heater kW capacity.
Distance From Walls
Be sure to maintain 6" minimum clearance to side walls and 2"
to ceiling and wall in back of the heater (air intake side).

WARNING
This KBP2406-3MP is 240 Volt and the KBP2006-3MP is 208
Volt. It is important you verify your 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
KBP2406-3MP will operate at 208 Volt but will produce 25%
less wattage and draw 13% less Amps. Both these models
can be field-wired for 1-Phase or 3-Phase (refer to the wir-
ing diagram on back page). Disconnect 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" wing nut & lock washer supplied. Install
the lock washer between the bracket and heater, do not put
lock washer on the plastic wing nut. After desired air discharge
position has been determined, tighten wing nut so that heater
will not pivot.
Location of Heater
The heater should be installed out of the reach of persons.
The direction of air flow should not be restricted by machinery,
beams, etc., and the air flow 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 air flow of the others to
provide best circulation of warm air. (See Air Flow Chart)
