Attachment to the heater support lugs should be made by a ‘speed link’, D shackle or in the case of drop rods, a closed formed hook. The hanging attachments to overhead steelwork etc. must be purpose made to good sound engineering practice or of a proprietary type fixing. They must be adequately fixed and designed to carry the whole weight of the heater. In the event of suitable roof steelwork being unavailable, additional steelwork should be fitted to enable vertical hangers to be used for suspending the heaters. These methods are illustrated in Figure 3.b. If there are any doubts as to the strength or suitability of roof steelwork to which heaters are to be suspended, please refer to a Consultant, Architect or owner of the building. The recommended mounting heights for AmbiRad heaters are given in the table above. 1.4 Wall Mounting These radiant tube heaters can be wall mounted using the appropriate bracket (AmbiRad part no WMB-13-22-38). When using the wall mounting brackets the heater must be inclined at an angle between 30° and 45°. Table 1 Angle Mounting Figure 3.a.

Herringbone systems (UH & LH).

The manifold system should be arranged to fall slightly in the direction of the vacuum fan. This ensures that any condensation formed in the manifold on cold start and cool down is not trapped or allowed to drain back into the heater unit. This allows condensate to flow towards the condensate trap located at the vacuum fan end of the manifold system. (See figure 4a below for condensate trap arrangement). The manifold should be supported by chain, stainless steel flexible wire, or other flexible means from the roof structure to allow movement caused by thermal expansion. For 100mm diameter manifold the maximum distance between supports is 2.4m and 3.0m for 150mm diameter. Flexible couplers (supplied by AmbiRad) must be inserted within the manifold system to allow linear expansion to take place and prevent stress and strain on the system. The exhaust flue should be adequately supported from the building structure and installed in accordance with the British Standard Code of Practice BS 5440: Part 1:2000 – Installation and maintenance of flues and ventilation for gas appliances of rated input not exceeding 70kW net (1st, 2nd and 3rd family gases) A condensate trap assembly must be provided at the end of the manifold system before the hot gas vacuum fan. The minimum depth of the condensate collecting chamber shall be 305mm and the minimum depth of the condensate drain pipe ‘U’ trap shall be 457mm deep. The end cap of the collecting chamber to be fitted with a flush flanged tank connector. Any protrusion to be removed leaving the inside flush with end cap. The end cap should be sealed with silicon jointing compound and pop riveted in position. All condensate drains from the flue collecting chamber to the disposal point shall be corrosion-resistant material of not less than 22mm internal diameter. Copper or copper based alloy shall not be used for condensation drains. See reference BS 6896:2005. Condensate drain pipes must be protected against the effects of freezing. The Type ‘0’ and Type ‘2’ vacuum fans have bottom horizontal discharge with rectangular connections (flanged on the type 0) and must be mounted in that position by means of the fan support stool onto a suitable platform or brackets fixed to the building structure. For details of the fan outlet fixing holes see below. 305.0 457.0 Figure 4a. Condensate Trap Arrangement Figure 4c. Type ‘O’ Fan Outlet Dimensions Figure 4d.

to the heater not to apply excessive turning

force to the internal controls. A flexible hose is installed to allow safe linear expansion of the heater without creating undue stress on the gas supply pipe work. It is therefore important that a tested and certified hose assembly made to ISO 10380 2003, supplied with ½” BSP female cone seat adapters, is installed as per these instructions. It is also important to ensure that expansion is taken up in the body of the flexible hose, and not on its attachment to the pipe work. The cone seat adapter supplied on one end of the flexible gas hose provides a `swivel` action, and must be fitted on the burner using a ½” BSP barrel nipple to provide ease of disconnection for future servicing. This assumes that the heater and fixed gas supply to the isolating valve have been installed. The installation layout described below is the only method recommended by the institute of gas engineers, the hose manufacturer, and AmbiRad and must only be carried out by a qualified/competent gas engineer. fig.a fig.c Arrow denotes direction of expansion. Depending on the specific installation, the flexible gas hose may be routed to the gas cock at any of the following angles in relation to the burner: Vertical (fig.a) 45° angle (fig.b) 90° angle (fig.c) Any other position in between these angles is acceptable. A clearance distance ‘x’ of min 200mm must be observed to allow side door access . Care must be taken to observe the minimum pipe bend diameter (minimum 250mm, maximum 350mm) & pipe expansion distance (minimum 30mm, maximum 70mm) as shown in fig.e. Maximum bend diameter for the 1000mm hose is 450mm. The correct installation as shown will allow for approx 100mm of movement due to expansion. x x fig.b fig.d 1.7 Gas Connection and Supply Before installation, check that the local distribution conditions, nature of gas and pressure, and adjustment of the appliance are compatible. A competent or qualified engineer is required to either install a new gas meter to the service pipe or to check that the existing meter is adequate to deal with the rate of gas supply required. Installation pipes should be fitted in accordance with BS 6896:2005, so that the supply pressure, as stated in Table 4 will be achieved. It is the responsibility of the competent engineer to ensure that other relevant Standards and Codes of Practice are complied with in the country of installation. Pipes of smaller size than the heater inlet gas connection must not be used. The complete installation must be tested for soundness as described in the country of installation. The gas union service cock MUST be fitted in the gas supply close to the heater, but not onto the burner itself. Take care when making a gas connection fig.e 300 +/- 50mm Burne 50 +/- 20mm Figure 8.

This appliance must be earthed.

Supply 230V 50Hz single phase. Standard heater 116W. Herringbone 16W. Current rating 0.55 amp max (inductive). Fuse: external 3 amp. All electrical work should be carried out to IEE standards by a competent electrician. The electrical connection to the heater is made by means of a three pin plug-in power connector. Live, neutral and earth connections should be made via a flexible supply cable to the power connector and routed clear of the heater or tubes. The flexible supply cables should be of 0.5mm² and comply with BS 6500:2000. The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Green & Yellow Earth; Blue Neutral; Brown Live It is recommended the heater or group of heaters are controlled by thermostats, a time switch and if required manual control switches and a frost thermostat. We recommend use of AmbiRad approved controls. Please refer to control manual for siting and installation details. Where alternative manufactures controls are used, please refer to their instructions for their siting and installation details.

1.9 Ventilation Requirements

AmbiRad tube heaters can be operated as flued or unflued appliances in accordance with the relevant national requirements in the country of installation. 1.9.1 Unflued Radiant Heater Radiant tube heaters can be operated as unflued appliances so that the concentration of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) at positions where the air will be inhaled does not exceed 0.28%. BS EN 13410:2001 is a guide to achieving this requirement. If the building air change rate exceeds 1.5 per hour or if the heat input is less than 5W/m³, no additional ventilation is required. In addition to the ventilation requirements, con- sideration needs to be given to the possibility of condensation forming on cold surfaces. It should be noted that the clearance distance around the burner increases when the unit is operated unflued (see section 1.6). It should be ensured that the combustion gases do not impinge on any combustible materials. Mechanical Ventilation Mechanical ventilation must be installed to meet a minimum of 1.5 air changes per hour using appropriately sized fans and interlocked with the heaters. Natural Ventilation BS EN 13410:2001 should be used to size air vents to provide adequate ventilation, an example of this calculation is given below: Site Details: 20°c Internal Operating Temperature 0°c Outside Air Temperature 5m between high and low level vents Following the sizing procedure in BS EN 13410:2001 gives an air exit velocity of 1.6m/s. This equates to a free area vent at both high level and low level of 17.36cm²/kW free area. 1.9.2 Flued Radiant Heater In buildings having an air change rate of less than 0.5 per hour, additional mechanical or natural ventilation is required. For detailed information, please see BS6896:2005 section 5.2.2.2.1 Mechanical Ventilation Mechanical ventilation must be installed to meet a minimum of 0.5 air changes per hour using appropriately sized fans and interlocked with the heaters. Natural Ventilation Low level ventilation openings with a free area of at least 2cm²/kW shall be provided.

Balancing The Herringbone System

Important When all the heaters have been installed the vacuum settings must be finally balanced in the hot condition. Before attempting to start up the heating system it is essential to perform the preliminary balancing of the vacuum level at each burner unit. Isolate each heater unit by unplugging the electrical connector and closing the gas isolating valve. Start all burners up and allow them to run for at least 20 minutes. Adjust the damper at exit of each heater using a 4mm Allen key in the damper blade securing screw. Observing the vacuum reading using a ‘U’ tube manometer connected to the vacuum test point (see fig29) each damper should be readjusted and set at a hot condition reading as shown in table 9 (NG) and table 10 (LPG) for the appropriate size of heater and model. Figure 29. HB Damper Assembly 3. Commissioning Instructions. These appliances should be commissioned by a qualified engineer. 3.1 Tools Required. The following tools and equipment are advisable to complete the tasks laid out in this manual. Suitable alternative tools may be used. 3.3 Balancing a DL System Important When all the heaters have been installed the vacuum settings must be finally balanced in the hot condition. As with a Herringbone system above, start both burners up and allow them to run for at least 20 minutes. Adjust the damper on the condensate box using a 4mm Allen key in the damper blade securing screw. Observing the vacuum reading using a manometer connected to the vacuum test point (see figure 30) each damper should be readjusted and set at a hot condition reading as shown in table 9 (NG) and table 10 (LPG) for the appropriate size of heater and model.
