5 MV Heating UK Ltd Uses and Applications The heater works independently from the vehicle’s engine, but is best fitted using the vehicle’s battery and fuel tank. An auxiliary battery and/or fuel tank can be used if necessary. The heater will operate under normal conditions in most vehicles from industrial and machinery sectors to leisure craft like yachts and motor homes. The heater is best uses for heating various cabins and compartments, engine preheating and glass defrosting. It is not recommended for constant long-term operation for residential rooms, garages, holiday homes etc. Note: The most common faults that occur are generally down to poor fuel conditions due to dirty (or empty) fuel tanks or drops in voltage; particularly in older vehicles like live aboard narrowboats or used, commercial vehicles.

6 MV Heating UK Ltd Safety Information Follow the installation guidelines carefully to ensure the heater has the appropriate amount of clearance between surfaces, so as not to become a fire hazard and that the various parts of the heater that get hot, like the exhaust, are not exposed or contaminated by possible fuel and oil. Sufficient ventilation is required allowing proper air-flow to the heater. If the heater is to be installed in a box or compartment, please ensure an air vent is installed for this reason. The air must also be fresh and not contaminated by exhaust fumes or other polluted sources. Make sure that the air intakes and exhaust do not get blocked by other objects. Take care to ensure that the exhaust outlet is installed in a way that prevents fumes entering the vehicle or in the direction of the fresh air intake and ensure the use of heat shields where necessary to again avoid fire damage. If work is to be carried out on or around the heater, turn it off at least an hour before so, so that it is sufficiently cool enough to be handled. If necessary, wear safety gloves. The fuel line must not be routed through the passenger compartment or the driver’s cab in any vehicle. Ensure that they are also installed so that the exits are not at risk or in danger of becoming a possible fire hazard. Finally, take care and follow any and all precautions when installing the heater to minimize injuries to yourself and damage to the heater.

13 MV Heating UK Ltd Wiring Harness Connector Positions The main connector coming off the heater can be moved to the other side of the heater if necessary. In order to do you must first remove the air inlet grill by twisting it so it’s clear of its securing lip and then simply pull it off. Next, remove the top cover by lifting up the two front flaps near the air inlet. You can then lift out the entire innards of the heater (heat exchanger to fan motor and all) removing the cable from the rubber securing bush and rerouting it underneath the fan motor where it can then sit in the cut-out on the opposite side. Ensure the rubber bush is properly inserted and the heat exchanger is back securely in position, then simply replace the lid and grill back in position. Note: Ensure the bottom cover fits correctly inside the groove of the lid. Figure VII

17 MV Heating UK Ltd Installation: Ducting (Cont’d) Ducting Can be installed as shown on the previous page. Extra outlets can be installed to fit your own needs however you should ideally not fit more than the maximum of 4 outlets, to ensure you are receiving sufficient hot air output. Exhaust System Note: Do not work on the exhaust system unless the heater has been switched off for over an hour and wear safety gloves if necessary. All types of combustion produce high temperatures and toxic fumes and must be installed in accordance to these instructions. The flexible exhaust pipe can be shortened to no less than 20cm and should not exceed a length of 2m, depending on the installation parameters. Route the exhaust pipe from the heater to a suitable outlet, ensuring that is securely fitted to the heater using the clamp supplied in the kit. As the exhaust gets very hot during operation, it should be installed in such a way that will not cause damage to the vehicle. So ensure that it has sufficient clearance of heat sensitive parts; paying close attention to fuel lines (plastic and copper) and electrical components. Make sure that the outlet ends in open air and does not point in the direction of travel. The whole system should also point downwards and if necessary, a 5mm hole should be drilled near the bottom to drain off any condensation. You should also route the exhaust so that the fumes are not taken back in by the air intakes of the heater and ensure that the outlet does not get blocked by anything like road debris etc.

24 MV Heating UK Ltd Fuel Standpipe A fuel standpipe (or suction pipe) will need to be installed in the vehicle’s fuel tank or an independent fuel tank depending on what the installation calls for. Sealant is not required to fit the standpipes. Depending on the standpipe provide in the kit you will need to install the standpipe in one of two ways. Standpipe 1: (Part No: AHZ-034) Figure XVII Usually supplied in Marine kits and supplied bent, this standpipe is installed like so: • Drill a hole in the top of the vehicle’s fuel tank Φ22 ± 0.2mm in size. Ensure it is smooth and clean of burrs • Remove the top nut and washers and bend the standpipe straight • Cut the standpipe down to size if necessary • Fit the standpipe by tilting it into position into the newly drilled hole • Place the rubber and metal washers back on top followed by the nut and tighten it securely on top

+44 (0)23 8052 2345

25 MV Heating UK Ltd Stand pipe 2: (Part No: AHZ-035) Figure XVIII Supplied mainly in vehicle kits, this standpipe is installed like so: • If possible; remove the sender unit from the vehicle’s fuel tank, this will make it easier to attach the nut securely back onto the standpipe • Drill a Φ6 ± 0.2mm hole into the sender unit • Remove the nut from the standpipe and feed it through the hole ensuring the rubber ‘o’ ring remains on the standpipe ‘head’ side • Replace the nut on the standpipe to secure it safely to the sender unit. • Replace the sender unit into the fuel tank. The bottom of the fuel standpipe should be 30-40mm from the bottom of the fuel tank to allow enough suction of fuel and at the same time not allow impurities and sediment to be drawn up the standpipe.

26 MV Heating UK Ltd Electrics: Components Make sure that all electrical components are arranged in the vehicle so that they function correctly under normal heater operations. Firstly, ensure that no wires are damaged in any way and avoid feeding them through areas that may cause damage to the loom or cause kinking, jamming or exposure to heat. If necessary, fit rubber grommets and plugs around the loom in areas that are not waterproof or may get damaged by road debris. Lastly make sure all connections are free of corrosion and all firmly connected. Control Switch & Timer To install the control switch, simply remove the rotary knob (it is quite stiff) and secure in a suitable location with the screw provided, then replace the knob back in the correct location. Alternatively, to fit the mini timer, simply fit the appropriate screw inside the hole located at the center of the timer. Both plug into the corresponding black and clear plugs on the loom. Note: Only one can be installed at a time. External Temperature Sensor Probe The external temperature sensor probe plugs into the corresponding blue and brown wired socket on the diagram and should ideally by mounting at shoulder height when sat down to ensure correct reading of the air temperature. It should not be mounted in such a way as to obstruct air flow; like up high, in the corner of the vehicle cabin or above heat sources.
