Fenix HN4500 series Installation Manual

Quartz Infrared Zone Heaters
The following information should be considered when installing Quartz Infrared
Heaters.
Installation should always be carried out by a qualified electrician or a competent
person in accordance with current electrical regulations, protected by a suitably rated
isolator and fuse or type3 mcb.
The heaters should always be installed using the mounting brackets provided to
ensure adequate clearance from the wall.
A minimum air gap of 450mm should always be allowed between the top of the
heater and the ceiling or roof.
A safety distance of 1mtr should always be left in front of a 1.5KW heater. Heaters
of 3KW and 4.5KW should have a safety distance of at least 1.5mts and the 6KW
heater leave 2mts.
You also should ensure no flammable material could come into contact with the
heater.
Heaters should not be installed in areas where hazardous vapours may be present
as defined in BS5345
It is recommended the heaters be operated with a guard in front of the lamp and
should always be fitted to units mounted below 2.2mtrs.
The heater should only be installed in an indoor or weather protected environment.
The essential element of the heater is the halogen filled quartz linear lamp with a
tungsten element. This operates at about 2200 C and is housed in a ruby quartz sleeve
to filter out the white light and emit short wave infrared radiant heat. The lamp operates
at full output almost instantly and emits a radiant energy of 1.2microns.
Quartz heaters are recommended by The Electricity council and Building Services
Research Association for General space heating, Zone heating and localised spot
heating.
