<strong>COMBAT</strong> ® CTU UNIT HEATERS INSTALLATION OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUALSECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY• To install the heater, as well as the gas and electricalsupplies, in accordance with applicablespecifications and regulations. <strong>Roberts</strong>-<strong>Gordon</strong>recommends the installer contact a localauthority, building inspector or insurancecompany for guidance.• To use the information given in the manualtogether with the local and national regulationsto perform the installation.• To install the heater in accordance with theclearances to combustibles of this heater.• To apply all needed materials not suppliedas standard equipment.• To plan location of supports, flues and airintakes.• To provide access to burners for servicing.• To provide the owner with a copy of thisinstallation, commissioning, operation andservice manual.• To never use heater as support for ladder orother access equipment and never hang orsuspend anything from heater.• To ensure that there is sufficient ventilation in thearea to comply with the requirements ofall relevant local and national regulations.• To safely and adequately install heater usingmaterials with a minimal working load of 33 kg.• To ensure the heater is placed in an approvedapplication.2.1 Laminated Wall PlateA laminated wall plate is available for the heater as apermanent reminder of the safety instructions andthe importance of the required clearances tocombustibles. Affix theplate by peeling off thebacking of the adhesive strips on the rear surfaceand position the plate on a wall near the heater (e.g.thermostat or ROBERTS GORDON ® Controller).A copy of the wall plate (P/N 91040028) is illustratedon the back cover. Know your model number andinstalled configuration. Model number and installedconfiguration are found on the heater and in the<strong>Installation</strong>, Operation and Service Manual.2.2 Corrosive ChemicalsCAUTIONProduct Damage HazardDo not use heater in area containingcorrosive chemicals.Refer to appropriate Material Safety DataSheets (MSDS).Failure to follow these instructions can resultin product damage.<strong>Roberts</strong>-<strong>Gordon</strong> cannot be responsible for ensuringthat all appropriate safety measures are undertakenprior to installation; this is entirely the responsibilityof the installer. It is essential that the contractor, thesub-contractor, or the owner identifies the presenceof combustible materials, corrosive chemicals orhalogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere in thepremises.* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemicalcompounds characterized by the presence of halogenelements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These compoundsare frequently used in refrigerants, cleaningagents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the airsupply of the burner, the lifespan of the heater componentswill be greatly reduced. Warranty will be invalid ifthe heater is exposed to halogenated hydrocarbons.2.3 National Standards and ApplicableRegulationsAll appliances must be installed in accordance withthe latest revision of applicable standards and localand national regulations. This refers also to theelectric, gas and venting installation. Note:Additional standards for installations in publicgarages, aircraft hangars, etc. may be applicable.4 of 51


SECTION 3: CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLESWARNINGFire HazardKeep all flammable objects, liquids andvapours the minimum required clearances tocombustibles away from heater.Some objects will catch fire or explode whenplaced close to heater.Failure to follow these instructions can resultin death, injury or property damage.3.1 Required Clearances to CombustiblesClearances are the required distances thatcombustible objects must be away from the heaterto prevent fire hazards. Caution should be usedwhen running the system near combustibles.Combustibles are materials, which may catch on fireand include common items such as wood, paper,rubber, fabric, etc. Maintain clearances tocombustibles at all times for safety.Clearances around the heater and flue must be asindicated on Page 6, Figure 3 to ensure access forservicing, and correct operation. If clearances tocombustibles are not indicated, then installationclearances apply.Check the clearances on each burner for the modelheater being installed to make sure the product issuitable for your application and the clearances aremaintained. Read and follow the safety guidelinesbelow:• Keep petrol or other combustible materialsincluding flammable objects, liquids, dust orvapours away from this heater or any other appliance.• The stated clearances to combustibles representsa surface temperature of 32°C (90° F)above room temperature. Building materials witha low heat tolerance (such as plastics, vinyl siding,canvas, tri-ply, etc) may be subject to degradationat lower temperatures. It is the installer’sresponsibility to assure that adjacent materialsare protected from degradation.• Maintain clearances from heat sensitive equipmentand workstations.• Maintain clearances from vehicles parked belowthe heater.• Maintain clearances from swinging and overheaddoors, overhead cranes, vehicle lifts, parti-SECTION 3: CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLEStions, storage racks, hoists, buildingconstruction, etc.• In locations used for the storage of combustiblematerials, signs must be posted to specify themaximum permissible stacking height to maintainrequired clearances from the heater to thecombustibles. Signs must be posted adjacent tothe heater thermostat. In the absence of a thermostat,signs must be posted in a conspicuouslocation.• Consult local Building Inspector, Fire InsuranceCarrier or other authorities for approval of proposedinstallation when there is a possibility ofexposure to combustible airborne materials orvapours.• Hang heater in accordance to the minimumsuspension requirements on Page 12, Section 6and Page 13, Figure 4 through Page 14, Figure6.• Affix the tag on a wall near the heater.5 of 51

DesignDepartment for recommendations regardingduct resistance and design. Tel: +44 (0) 121 50677009.1.1 CTUD <strong>Heater</strong>sFor CTUD heaters, it is essential that the airflow inthe duct system is at least that specified in the DataSheet on Page 9, Section 5.2 and in the correctdirection across the heat exchanger as indicated bythe arrow on the heater. Higher air flows arepermitted, but will cause a lower exiting airtemperature. It is recommended that the fan ispositioned to blow the air through the heatexchanger.The duct must be designed as described on Page18, Section 9.1 and Figure 11 to ensure that there isa homogenous air flow across the whole of the heatexchanger.Failure to provide a suitable air flow properlydistributed across the heat exchanger will reduce thelife of the heat exchanger.The fan motor, or its control, must contain a methodof overload protection. When installed remote fromthe heater, the fan must be supplied via a localelectrical isolator positioned and properly labeled toprevent inadvertent operation.Figure 11: DuctingNOTE: Duct size will be full size of inlet and outlet.All joints between the heater and duct work should bemade as air tight as possible.Minimum-TwiceDimension“X”Dimension“X”Airflow IndicatorMinimum-TwiceDimension“X”DuctingFlexible FlangeDucting18 of 51


SECTION 10: GAS PIPE WORKSECTION 10: GAS PIPE WORK• The gas supply pipe is adequately sized to carrythe total volume of gas for the completeinstallation.• An isolating valve and union connection shouldbe used and fitted into the supply adjacent to theheater.• For suspended heaters, use an approved metalflexible connection between the isolating valveand the heater. To reduce pressure loss, useone pipe size larger than the heater gasconnection.IMPORTANT - The complete installation must bepurged and tested for gas soundness in accordancewith local and national regulations.WARNING• Check the pipe and tubing ends for leaksbefore placing heating equipment into service.When checking for gas leaks, use asoap and water solution; never use an openflameExplosion HazardLeak test all components of gas pipe workbefore operation.Gas can leak if pipe work is not installedproperly.Do not high pressure test gas pipe work withheater connected.Failure to follow these instructions can resultin death, injury or property damage.It is important that the gas supply pipe and theelectrical connections do not support any of theheater’s weight.A gas meter is connected to the service pipe by thegas supply company. An existing meter should bechecked, preferably by the gas supplier, to ensurethat the meter is adequate for the rate of gas supplyrequired.<strong>Installation</strong> pipes must be fitted in accordance withlocal and national regulations. Pipe work from themeter to the heater(s) must be of adequate size.10.1 ConnectionsConnect the heater to the gas supply ensuring thatthe final connections are as follows:• Gas supply pipe work is run in medium or heavygauge tubing in compliance with local andnational regulations.19 of 51
