Internal cleaning

The internal part of a heater can be cleaned with compressed air and with a tube brush. If needed do

this every day. First clean the outside of the burner. Then the inside of the venturi and burner tube via

the dust filter connection. Repeat this 3 times to be sure the dust is removed. Do not hit the ceramics

while it becomes a bit brittle due to the temperature.

Water

Never clean the heater with water, steam or

chemicals. Also, do not use high pressure jets to

clean the heater. The lifetime of the ceramic stone

will go down when it becomes wet and again hot

afterwards or will be destroyed by the water

pressure. In case a heater becomes wet

unintentionally, first make sure that it is dried

completely before using it again.

High fire

The lifetime of infrared heaters in a dusty environment will be extended in case these heaters are

operated on high fire every 12 to 24 hours for minimal 15 minutes. This burns off dust in the burner that

accumulates during low-fire operation. This is only needed in case heaters operate on lower setting for

a longer period. When a barn computer is used for heating and ventilation, it will be easy to modify the

program to add a 15 minutes high fire operation every day. In case a mechanical thermostat is used a

solution can be to put the sensor for 15 minutes in a bucket with cold water during daily inspection of

the barn.

Consumable parts

Thermocouples (28), burner gauzes (4) and the magnet unit (#53 mini (26)) inside the gas safety device

are the most important parts that maybe requires replacement during normal operational life. See the

Parts List for more information.

Replacement thermocouple and magnet unit

- Remove the thermocouple (28) by unscrewing the nut M8 at the gas safety device (23). Open bracket

(8) and remove the thermocouple.

- Unscrew the nut (27) at the gas safety device (23).

- Remove the broken magnet unit (26) and replace by a new one.

- Replace the nut (27) and close carefully (firmly but not excessive) to avoid gas leakage.

- Screw thermocouple nut M8 in nut (27). Hand-tight first and then an additional 1/6 turn. Position of the

thermocouple is that bracket (8) just covers the first turns of the M8 thread on the thermocouple tip.

- Carefully check for gas leakage before taking back into operation.

Conversion instructions

Conversion shall be done by a qualified installer only. To convert a heater from one gas or gas pressure

to another gas or gas pressure, take the following actions.

- Consult the technical table and contact the manufacturer or dealer for the parts needed. (new injector

(16), new venturi (12), new thermostat body (20) and a new data plate).

- Replace the parts by new ones. Use a proper gas sealant to avoid gas leakage and seal the new parts.

- Consult the technical table for the proper ring distance. (Rings are counted from the gas safety device).

- Check the gas supply for the proper gas pressure and gas type and do a leakage test first.

- Take the heater into operation and do a visual examination of the flame as explained above.

End-of life disposal

The infrared heaters are made up of valuable recyclable materials. Therefore, deliver your heater at the

end of its life in a recycling company.
