heater. Each installer shall use quality installation practices when locating the heater and must give consideration to clearances to combustible materials, vehicles parked below, lights, overhead doors, storage areas with stacked materials, sprinkler heads, gas and electrical lines and any other possible obstructions or hazards. Consideration also must be given to service accessibility.

The heater, when installed in aircraft hangars and public garages, must be installed in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 409-latest edition (Standard for Aircraft Hangars), ANSI/NFPA 88a-latest edition (Standard for Parking Structures), and ANSI/NFPA 88b-latest edition (Standard for Repair Garages) with the following clearances:

a.At least 10 feet above the upper surfaces of wings or engine enclosures of the highest aircraft that may be housed in the hangar and at least 8 feet above the floor in shops, offices, and other sections of hangars communicating with aircraft storage or service areas.

b.At least 8 feet above the floor in public garages. WARNING: Minimum clearances marked on the heater must be maintained from vehicles parked below the heater.

(FOR CANADA ONLY)

a. Installation of this appliance is to be in accordance with latest edition of CAN 1-B149.1 (Installation Code for Natural Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment), and/or CAN B149.2 (Installation Code for Propane Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment).

b.For installation in public garages or aircraft hangars, the minimum clearances from the bottom of the infrared heater to the upper surface of the highest aircraft or vehicle shall be 50 percent greater than the certified minimum clearance, but the clearance shall not be less than 8 feet.

Although these heaters may be used in many applications other than space heating (e.g., process heating), Space- Ray will not recognize the warranty for any use other than space heating.

This heater is for Indoor Installation and Covered Patio Installation only and can be used in either Vented or Unvented mode. The term Unvented actually means Indirect Vented. While the products of combustion are expelled into the building, national codes require ventilation in the building to dilute these products of combustion. This ventilation may be provided by gravity or mechanical means.

This heater is not an explosion proof heater. Where the possibility of exposure to volatile and low flash point materials exists, it could result in property damage or death. This heater must not be installed in a spray booth where the heater can operate during the spraying process. Consult your local fire marshal or insurance company.

PTS Series Only: Since straight tube heaters are always hotter at the control end than at the flue terminal end, always observe the minimum recommended mounting heights shown on the specification sheets and in Section

5.0of this manual. Use U-tube configuration instead of straight tubes for spot or area heating (e.g., where a single heater is utilized for space heating).

High Altitude:

Appliances are supplied as standard for altitudes of O to 2,000 feet (0-610 m). High-altitude ratings are obtained by a change in the orifice size. When ordered for high altitude installations, burners are supplied by the factory ready for high altitude installation. Check the nameplate for altitude before proceeding with the installation. In Canada the adjustment for altitude is made in accordance with Standard CGA 2.17, Gas-Fired Appliances for Use at High Altitudes.
