Force Flow Heaters Installation & Operation Manual

GENERAL INSTALLATION

All units are shipped fully assembled. If the unit is a fully or semi-recessed model type then a wall seal trim will be included and must be installed as per the provided instructions.

Remove front panel, line up roughed in piping and position the unit in the desired wall or ceiling location.

Attach unit to wall or ceiling using the provided holes in the back panel of the unit.

Piping should always be installed and connected using good practice and in accordance with applicable codes.

Wiring should be completed in accordance with applicable codes. All models are furnished with a fan control box in the desired location on the unit. If the speed or temperature control are to be remote mounted the junction box must be supplied by an other.

Once the unit is completely installed a test run should be performed. If operational difficulties are experienced, recheck all wiring connections and power source.

MAINTENANCE

Motors. Motors are a permanent split capacitor type fitted with self lubricating sleeve bearings. In order to extend motor life the bearing should be "recharged" with an annual lubrication. Use an SAE 10 non detergent oil applied only in the oiling holes provided.

Coils. Coils are to be kept clean in order for proper heat transfer to exist. The conditions of each operating environment will change the frequency of cleaning. The coils can be vacuumed or alternately use the following methods. Brush the fins on the air intake side and then place a bag or damp cloth over the unit discharge. Activate the unit and the dirt will be trapped in the bag or cloth. The coil can also be cleaned with high pressure air which should be blown on the outlet side of the coil (blowing air on the inlet will force dirt deeper into the coil).

Blowers. Blowers can be cleaned using high pressure air.

Filters. Filters should be kept clean to ensure the proper circulation of air volume through the unit. The frequency of the cleaning varies and is dependant upon the operating environment. As a guide they should be washed in mild detergent or blown clean with compressed air every 3 months.

Force Flow Heaters specifications

Sigma Force Flow Heaters represent a significant advancement in thermal technology, designed for various applications ranging from industrial processes to environmental control systems. These flow heaters are renowned for their efficiency, precision, and robustness, making them a preferred choice for businesses that require reliable temperature management solutions.

One of the key features of Sigma Force Flow Heaters is their ability to deliver instantaneous heating. Unlike traditional heating methods that may take time to reach the desired temperature, Sigma Force units employ advanced heating elements that provide rapid response times. This capability ensures that processes maintain optimal temperatures, which is critical in ensuring product quality and minimizing energy consumption.

The heaters incorporate state-of-the-art technology, such as PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) control systems. This technology allows for precise temperature regulation, enabling users to maintain tight tolerances in temperature-sensitive applications. By continuously monitoring the temperature and making real-time adjustments, the Sigma Force Flow Heaters can significantly reduce energy use while ensuring consistent output.

Another remarkable characteristic of these flow heaters is their compact and modular design. This allows for easier integration into existing systems and facilitates straightforward installation and maintenance. The modular nature also means that capacities can be scaled according to the specific requirements of a project, offering flexibility for both small and large operations.

Sigma Force employs high-quality materials, enhancing durability and resistance to corrosion and wear. This durability is essential for industrial environments where equipment faces harsh conditions. Moreover, the heaters are designed with safety features like over-temperature protection and pressure relief valves, ensuring safe operation in various circumstances.

The energy efficiency of Sigma Force Flow Heaters is another standout feature. By utilizing advanced insulation techniques and high-efficiency heating elements, these heaters minimize energy loss, which not only cuts costs but also aligns with increasing demand for eco-friendly solutions in industrial sectors.

In summary, Sigma Force Flow Heaters are characterized by their rapid heating response, precise temperature control, modular design, durability, and energy efficiency. Their advanced technologies and robust features make them a vital asset in numerous applications, from chemical processing to food production, providing solutions that meet the ever-evolving needs of modern industries. Organizations investing in these heaters can expect enhanced performance, reliability, and significant cost savings over time, thereby improving overall operational efficiency.
