MONITOR HEATING SYSTEMS
Section 3 : Operation
3-1
INTRODUCTION
Monitor is an easy-t~operate vented kerosene
heater. Routine operation features high BTU output.
automatic adjustment of room temperature, low fuel
and power consumption, and choice of automatic or
manual heater operation.
This section provides
all
information necessary to
operate the Monitor Heating System. All operation
procedures specified should be performed in the
order in which they are described.
3-2 OPERATING
SPECIFICATIONS
The following specifications apply to the operation
of the Monitor
441
and the Monitor 422.
Monitor
441
-
Rated Efficiency (as applied
to
kerosene
heaters):
9 3 % '
-
Rated Efficiency (as applied to central heating
systems): 87%
-
Power Consumption : as follows
-
Circulation Fan
O u t p u t :
388 cubic feet:min.
-
Fuel source : Remote, separate tank
-
Potential heating area : 900-3200 sq.
feet
'The energy from the combustion process
IS
released in the form of heat and vaporized water.
Normally. heating systems discharge water from
combustion to the atmosphere without condensing
it. This
93%
efficiency rating means that. assuming
the
water cannot be condensed,
93% of
the heat
produced by the combustion process is recovered.
Assuming the water can be condensed, the effi-
ciency is 87%.
NOTE:
Actual effective heatirig area depends upon
numerous factors such as type and severii
of climate, type of dwelling construction,
condition of dwelling, and thickness and
effectiveness of dwelling insulation.
Table 3 1 lists Monitor 641 performance specifica-
tions at various user-selected heat output settings.
