BLACKHEAT® HE INSTALLATION OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL

SECTION 1: HEATER SAFETY

Your Safety is Important to Us!

This symbol is used throughout the manual to notify you of possible fire, electrical or burn hazards. Please pay special attention when reading and following the warnings in these sections.

Installation, service and annual inspection of heater must be done by a registered installer/contractor qualified in the installation and service of gas-fired heating equipment.

Read this manual carefully before installation, operation or service of this equipment.

This heater is designed for heating nonresidential indoor spaces. Do not install in residential spaces. These instructions, the layout drawing, local codes and ordinances, and applicable standards that apply to gas piping, electrical wiring, venting, etc. must be thoroughly understood before proceeding with the installation.

Protective gear is to be worn during installation, operation and service. Thin sheet metal parts, such as the reflector portion of the heater and the various venting components, have sharp edges. To prevent injury, the use of work gloves is recommended. The use of gloves will also prevent the transfer of body oils from the hands to the surface of the reflector.

Before installation, check that the local distribution conditions, nature of gas and pressure, and adjustment of the appliance are compatible.

The heater must be applied and operated under the general concepts of reasonable use.

For additional copies of the Installation, Operation and Service Manual, please contact Roberts-Gordon LLC.

1.1 Manpower Requirements

To prevent personal injury and damage to the heater, two persons will be required for installation.

1.2 IP55 Protection

The burner is certified to protection class of IP55. This means that the internal components of the burner are protected against extreme dusty atmosphere and water jets from all sides. Outside air supply and flue are mandatory for this heater. The standard exhaust fans mentioned in this manual do NOT have IP55 protection and must be outside the wet environment. If the fan is to be installed in the wet environment, a special IP54 protected fan must be used. Consult Roberts-Gordon LLC for alternative exhaust fans. Optional stainless steel burner box provides long life in the most corrosive applications. Always ensure that the environment to be heated is not of an explosive or flammable nature. For more information, please consult your ROBERTS GORDON® independent distributor.

In order to have trouble free performance of your heater and maintain the IP55 protection, follow all instructions in this manual, especially the replacement of sealing gaskets.

1.3 Safety Labels and Their Placement

Product safety signs or labels should be replaced by the product user when they are no longer legible. Please contact Roberts-Gordon LLC or your ROBERTS GORDON® independent distributor to obtain replacement signs or labels. See Page 2, Figure 1 through Page 3, Figure 2.
