Gas cylinder supply

The gas can also be supplied from LPG gas cylinders. The minimum size is a 11-kg cylinder or larger.

Before buying a cylinder make sure that the connections of the gas regulator and the gas valve of the

cylinder are of the same type. Check with your gas supplier for the correct size of gas regulator. Check

the technical table for the maximum gas consumption and gas pressure.

Store the gas cylinders always on ground level in a well-ventilated place, preferably outside the room

where the heater is. In case the gas cylinder is placed in a cylinder housing, or cover, make sure that

there is enough ventilation as requested by the applicable regulations or standards. Never obstruct these

ventilation holes. Make sure that the gas cylinders are used in upright position only and are secured

again tipping over during use. Gas cylinders laying on their side will give liquid gas. This is very

dangerous and will give a fire ball when it reaches the heaters.

In case the gas cylinder is placed in the same room as the heater is, keep it at a safe distance from the

heater so it will not be over heated. Advisable is at least 2 meters. Make sure that the gas cylinder valve

can easily be reached to close the gas supply in an emergency. Pay special attention how to change

the gas cylinders in a safe way.

For the Global-5 a minimum of 1,5 gas cylinder (11 kg or larger) per heater is needed. For the Global-

10 a minimum of 2 gas cylinders (11 kg or larger) per heater are needed for a guaranteed gas supply.

For a 45-kg gas cylinder a maximum of two Global-5 heaters is recommended. Having more heaters on

the gas cylinders as recommended above will give gas capacity problems, especially when it becomes

colder, due to limited vaporisation of the gas.

Biogas

While biogas can be corrosive under certain conditions it is important that the biogas is clean before

entrance to the appliances. The gas shall be dry and free from dust, oily and greasy particles to avoid

internal blockage of the appliances. Also, halogens, chlorides, H2S and NH3 shall be removed to avoid

corrosion. The tolerance on biogas composition with CH4=60% is +/- 4% CH4.

Gas hose

In most installations, the heaters are not connected directly to the gas system but a gas hose is used.

Keep the hoses always as short as possible, especially for natural gas and low-pressure LPG. For high-

pressure LPG, the maximum length (concerning capacity issues) is 5 meters.

The gas hoses must be inspected frequently and must be changed within the prescribed intervals. Check

the hose at least every 6 weeks. Avoid twisting or stress of the gas hose. Twisting or stress will shorten

the live time of the gas hose. During inspection, check the hose for damage, splitting, ageing and

cracking. Pay special attention to the connections. If a defect is seen directly change the gas hose by a

new one of the same type. Keep the hoses clean from dirt, moisture and dust.

Some countries have regulations that gas hoses must be replaced every 2 or 3 years. Please check with

your gas supplier. Always use official approved gas hoses, suitable for the pressure concerning. Replace

a gas hose always by a type of the same length, internal diameter and equivalent quality. For safety

reasons: never use air hoses or water hoses, these are very dangerous for gas transportation and

will leak soon!
