vector so there is at least 14" (35.6 cm) between the top of the
heater and any solid object that obstructs or redirects the vertical
air flow out of the top of the unit. (Figure 1C)

nOTE: Ensure that when 2 Linear Proportional Convectors are
installed near the same corner they are both a minimum of 6"
from the corner.
installation
All Linear Proportional Convectors must be connected from the right
side of the heater.
1.
Unpack and place Linear Proportional Convector on floor face
up, use packaging to protect floor if required. Remove front cov-
ers.

cal Codes.
4.
Position LPC, pushing cable back into wall (or conduit), run
screws through pre-selected mounting holes and spacers (if ap-
plicable), using appropriate wall anchors, if necessary.
!
nOTE: Screw should be backed off 1/2 turn from snug posi-
tion to allow free expansion and contraction of housing and to
ensure quiet operation.
5.
Replace covers on unit.
!
nOTE: Install the center cover first, by installing the top first,
then the bottom.
Usage of multiple Linear Proportional Convectors
Multiple Linear Proportional Convectors can be wired in parallel
on a single circuit. To use/control multiple Linear Proportional
Convectors from a single source, an Wall Mounted Remote Control
(DPCRWS) can be used. By synchronizing one wall remote to
multiple LPC's, the wall remote can control all of the heaters from
one location. Each component must be within 15m (45ft) of any
other component in the system for the entire system to operate.

Orient unit in desired location
and mark pilot holes - top and
bottom at both ends and at
least one set in middle.
If spacing the unit off of
the wall, to reduce wall
temperatures, prepare three
spacers, using Figure 2
dimensions, so that there is
one near each end and one
near the middle of the unit.
The spacers are designed so
that the unit will end up being
1/4" (0.6cm) off of the finished
floor.

When power is first supplied to the LPC the Setpoint Temperature
will flash in the temperature display area. At any time either the + or
- button can be pressed to have the temperature setpoint displayed
again.
a. Setting/Temperature Display
Pressing the + or - will increase or decrease the desired
temperature for the room to be heated by 0.5° (in either °C or °F).
After 5 seconds the Setpoint Temperature will switch to display the
intake temperature of the room.
!
nOTE: Pressing the + and - at the same time will toggle between
°C and °F.
B. Economy Setting
The Economy Setting can be used to change the Setpoint
Temperature for a variable period of time. By pressing the v the
Economy Setting will be enabled - signified by the icon flashing.
After the Set Back Temperature has been set, the icon will become
solid after three seconds and the Set Back Temperature will be
enabled.
To return back to the Comfort Setting press the v button and the
icon will disappear and the
C. Set Back Temperature Setting
The Set Back Temperature Setting is used during periods when the
Economy setting feature is active. This temperature adjustment can
be set by pressing the v followed by the + or -.
D. Comfort Setting
The Comfort Setting icon will be displayed when the heater is in
normal operation based on the Setpoint Temperature for the room.

E. Synchronized icon
A wall mounted controller is available to control one or multiple
Linear Proportional Convector Heaters within a 50' (15 m) radius. In
order for the wall setter to have this function the Linear Proportional
Convector and the Wall Setter need to be Synchronized.
