Ensure that there is adequate provision in the building for combustion and
ventilating air supply. Installation must meet minimum requirements of applicable
codes.
When installed in public garages and airplane hangars ensure that minimum
clearances specified in ANSI/NFPA 88A or B, ANSI/NFPA 409, respectively, are
met; and in no case less than those in the preceding tables.
A.4
PRE-ASSEMBLY
Each heating unit is assembled as follows:
Note that the emitter tube consists of more than one tube. The tube to be
connected to the burner box is the thinner stainless steel or aluminized steel
tube. Other tubes may be mild (thicker tubes), stainless or aluminized steel.
Connections between tubes is by a coupling with three bolts. The coupling has
an inner compression sleeve that holds the pipe securely when the nuts are
turned tight.
Support the assembled radiant tube with screws facing upwards, on blocks, etc.
at least 6” above floor level, preferably under the position of installation. Ensure
that the tube is clear internally.
Slip the suspension brackets onto the tube assembly and attach by means of “U”
bolts and nuts. Note that there are two types of brackets; type C and type B.
Type C attaches reflectors together. Bracket C & B are placed on the assembled
radiant tube in position shown on the assembly drawing in APPENDIX “A”.
Tighten nuts to secure brackets to the tubes at spacing indicated with all brackets
oriented in the same level position.
NOTE: CLOSE ALL S-HOOKS TO INSURE THAT THE CHAINS DO NOT
COME OFF OF THE HOOK.

INSTALLATION
Heater units: At this point raise the tube assembly into position and suspend from
previously fixed chains (9 gauge min. galvanized welded link construction), or
attach to wall mounting brackets. Wall mounting brackets must support heater at
an angle of inclination of 45° ±10°. Longer tube assembly may be raised in more
than one sub-assembly with final tube connection made in the air.
It is recommended that the heater be suspended to slope slightly downward from
the burner approximately 1 inch in 20 feet, but not more than 2-inches total.
Remove the protective plastic film from the reflector surface. Note that each
section ofreflector has two holes punched at one end. This end is firmly fixed by
bolting to the lugs provided on the reflector bracket type C. The other end of each
reflector section is free floating in suspension bracket type B thereby allowing for
thermal expansion.
Position reflector sections so that ends with holes lap at type C brackets and
secure with nuts, bolts, and large washers provided in the burner box crate.
Reflector should be allowed free movement through brackets type B. Note:
Reflectors may be installed before tube is raised to position at installer’s option.
Slide burner/control assembly onto the burner end of the radiant tube ensuring it
is fully engaged and upright, (i.e. with air inlet cover plate facing upwards) and
secure with locking screws provided.
Slide the fan assembly on the opposite end of radiant tube, ensuring that it is fully
engaged with fan outlet facing horizontally for outdoor installations and for indoor
installations either unvented or with horizontal thru wall venting. Fan outlet should
face upward for vertical venting thru the roof.

Injector sizes and manifold pressure for the burner are shown in the attached
table for all heater units.
The gas supply piping and connections must be installed so that the minimum
pressure stated is achieved.
A gas shut-off valve and union should be fitted in the gas supply line close to the
heater, and a 1/8 inch N.P.T. plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge
connection, provided immediately upstream of the appliance gas inlet.
It is essential to provide some flexibility in the final gas connection preferably by
use of an approved armored flexible connector or stainless steel expansion loop.

The fan will start to run and “Power On” lamp will illuminate. Safe-start checks
are carried out automatically.
After the fan has run up to full speed and a satisfactory vacuum condition has
been established, ignition sequence will commence. The spark ignition will be
energized producing a spark at the ignition electrode. The gas valve will at the
same time be energized.
If the ignition is successful the flame sensing probe and the ignition spark is
switched off. The ‘burner on” lamp indicates that the gas solenoid valve is
energized.
If ignition is unsuccessful the gas valve will close and the spark ignition de-
energized after approximately 6 seconds. For approximately 10 to 20 seconds
the fan will purge the system then re-ignition will be attempted. After three (3)
attempts at ignition the control unit will “lock-out” - the “power on” lamp will
remain illuminated and the fan will continue to run. To reset after “lock-out” switch
off the power supply to the system and wait 5 minutes. Then turn the power on.
If repeated “locked-out” occurs investigate the cause.

B. SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS
B.1 SERVICING INSTRUCTIONS
Under normal working conditions, it is recommended that the Ultimate Products
Heater should be serviced annually. In exceptionally dirty or dusty conditions
such as may occur in a foundry, more frequent servicing may be desirable.
Servicing work should be carried out by a qualified gas service engineer.
IMPORTANT:
1.
2.
Never rest anything, especially ladders, against the heater.
Turn off gas and electrical supplies before servicing or repair work is
started.
3.
Unless otherwise instructed, reassemble parts in reverse order to the
following instructions.
B.2 ROUTINE SERVICE
A. FAN – Inspect the main fan propeller and remove any dust brushing with a
soft brush. Similarly remove any dust from the finger guard covering the
secondary (cooling) impeller and the mesh aperture in the motor cover. Ensure
that the impeller turns
freely and that there is not excessive play in the bearings.
B. EMITTER TUBE – Brush away any dust on the exterior of the emitter tube.
Inspect the emitter tube internally by removing the burner control box as directed
in “D” below. If there is any appreciable build up of dust or deposits, the tube
should be cleaned internally. The emitter tube may be cleaned by use of an
industrial vacuum cleaner with a long extension tube, which is passed down the
emitter tube.
Replace the burner/control assemblies engaging them fully on their tubes and
secure by tightening the screws ensuring that they are squarely positioned (i.e.
with the air inlet cover plate facing upwards).
C. REFLECTOR – The condition of the reflector should be noted and any
necessary cleaning performed. The reflectors can be simply removed for
cleaning by removing the reflector clamp screws securing them to the
suspension brackets and sliding them out of the suspension brackets. The
reflector can be cleaned with a soft cloth and detergent in water.
A mild non-abrasive metal polish may be used in cases of extreme discoloration.
D. REMOVAL OF BURNER/CONTROL ASSEMBLY – Remove the burner/
control assembly by disconnecting the gas and electrical supply (and fresh air
inlet duct if fitted). Slacken the burner fixing screws and draw the assembly off
the emitter tube.

E. BURNER NER/ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY – Inspect the burner/electrode
assembly by removing the six screws securing the combustion chamber cover
plate to top of
control box, taking care not to damage the sealing gasket.
Remove the burner head by unscrewing it from the injector taking care not to
drop it on the leads of the ignition electrodes. Replace the electrode assembly if it
is not in good condition. The assembly is removed by removing the screws which
attach it to the bracket on the front wall of the combustion chamber. The
assembly is then lifted out of the combustion chamber and the cable
disconnected. If the electrode assembly is in good order check the spark
electrode gap, this should be .125 inches ±.030 inches. Adjust the gap if
necessary by bending the ground rod. Ensure the electrical connections are
secure.
Inspect the injector and clean as necessary using a soft bristle brush. To remove
or replace the injector, with the burner head removed, unscrew the injector from
its carrier using a wrench, on the hexagon portion of its body. When replacing the
injector ensure that it is fully tightened in its carrier. (TIGHTEN SNUG -- DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN)
Replace the burner head. Replace the combustion chamber top cover, renewing
the rubber sealing gasket if this is not in good condition.
Inspect the burner fresh air inlet duct if fitted and ensure that it is free of any
blockage or obstruction. Inspect the air inlet terminal and ensure this is not
liable to obstruction.
Recheck the heater by following the procedure for check out and start up,
taking care to check that the burner gas pressure is correctly set, and that the
vacuum switch and flame safeguard equipment function correctly.
F. AUXILIARY CONTROLS – Check that auxiliary controls such as room
thermostats, time switches, etc. function correctly and are set to operate at the
desired temperatures. Ensure that the user is aware of the functions of the
auxiliary controls and their correct settings. For most efficient operation of the
heating system the time switch, if fitted, should be set to switch on normally
between ¼ hour and 1 hour before commencement of occupancy of the building
depending on local conditions. The correct setting of the room thermostat can
only be determined byexperience in cold weather when it should be set to shut
off the heaters when a comfortable level of warmth has been achieved. This
setting will normally be several degrees below that which would be required with
a convective heating system.
