Summary of Contents for Whale Mk II SH2202

  • Page 1 Thank you for purchasing this Whale® product. For over 40 years Whale® has led the way in the design and manufacturer of freshwater and waste systems including:- plumbing, faucets, showers and pumps for low voltage applications. The company and its products have built a reputation for quality, reliability and innovation backed up by excellent customer service.
  • Page 2 PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION The Whale® Space Heater Mk II is a gas and electric blown air space heater. Nominal heat output is 2kW on gas and 2kW on mains electric. When on electric mode, heat output is adjustable to low, medium and high settings with an automatically adjusting fan speed which minimises noise and current draw.
  • Page 3 If the heater is to be used in motion, the vehicle in motion kit must be fitted. This is an accessory to the Whale® Space Heater and must be fitted to allow use in motion. Otherwise, do not operate the appliance while the vehicle is in motion.
  • Page 4 Please note that incorrect installation, misuse or use of non original Whale® parts may invalidate the warranty. It also becomes illegal to use the appliance if incorrectly installed, and in some countries this even makes it illegal to use the vehicle.
  • Page 5 Fig. 1...
  • Page 6 Cold Air Inlet Fig. 3 The Whale® space heater can be installed either inside the vehicle (SH2202) as in Fig. 2 or under the floor (SH2212B) as in Fig. 3, depending on which model has been purchased. To the Fitter:...
  • Page 7 Before installation, ensure the appliance has been supplied in good condition and if damaged do not install. A competent person should install the appliance in accordance with the appliance installation instructions. This appliance is for use with LPG (see appliance data plate) and mains electricity (230V a.c.). Check that the product is suitable for the intended application, in particular the installer must check the compatibility of the data plate information with the LPG supply requirements of the vehicle.
  • Page 8 Fig. 6 Under floor installation Fig. 7 Fig. 8...
  • Page 9 / motorhome. viii. Only Whale® supplied flue components are permitted to be used. The open end of either flue must not be positioned within 300mm of a refuelling point or fuel tank breather outlet or any ventilator from the fuel system(s).
  • Page 10 The heater must not be used when the vehicle is in motion unless the vehicle in motion flues and bracket are fitted. The vehicle in motion kit is not standard and is available separately. Please refer to the vehicle in motion kit instruction for further fitting considerations or contact Whale® Support for more information.
  • Page 11 Step 3 Attach heater to the floor From inside the vehicle, feed the exhaust and combustion air flues through the holes drilled on the floor. Locate the heater so that the flues are centralised in the holes, and attach heater to floor with 4 screws supplied (No. 8 x ¾”), as per Figs.
  • Page 12 Fig. 15 Step 5 Securing the flues Fig. 16 Push on the ends of the flues with the blue adaptor to the pipes on the underside of the Space Heater ensuring they are fully pushed on, and secure with supplied hose clips. Step 6 Mounting the flues When mounting the combustion inlet flue and exhaust flue, they should ideally run downwards from the heater to their open end to allow any condensation to drain out.
  • Page 13 The combustion air inlet flue is attached to the underside of the floor with two of the brackets supplied. The remaining brackets supplied with the flue kit are used to attach the exhaust flue. Clip the bracket around the flue and use two screws (No.8 x ¾”) to attach each bracket to the floor as per diagram, Fig.17.
  • Page 14 Fig. 19 The appliance should be installed by a competent person in accordance with the installation instructions and comply with any relevant regulations in the country where the appliance is installed. The Space Heater is supplied with a compression nut and olive for 8mm (5/16”) pipe. The supply pipe should be checked and be free from dirt or other particles before connection to the compression joint on the space heater.
  • Page 15 Step 9 Fitting Cold Air Supply The Whale® Space Heater must be adequately supplied with cold air. If the heater is installed in a bed box or another confined space, either vents into the area must be fitted or ducting used to supply the heater with cold air. If a vent is fitted, it must be no smaller than one designed for use with 60mm ducting.
  • Page 16 Step 10 Mounting of Whale® Control Panel When mounting the Whale® control panel, find a suitable convenient and accessible position. For good temperature control, select a position away from draughts and approximately 1.5m above the floor. Ensure suitable access for wiring loom connection and cable.
  • Page 17 The space heater and control panel come complete with electrical connectors fitted. The Whale® Space Heater and control panel are designed to be integrated into the caravan’s wiring loom. The Space Heater is provided with a JST VL series 12 way socket, and the control panel with JST VL 6 and 3 way sockets.
