Frico IR3000 Instructions Originales page 9

Application
IR is suitabe for total or supplementary
heating of premises with large volume and
high ceilings. It can also be used outdoors
for example on sport arena stands or to keep
loading bays dry and frostless.
Action
The infra-red heater heats up rapidly and
provides additonal heating input immediately
to the area.
Location
For point-heating, at least two infra-red
heaters are placed to ensure that heat is
provided both in front of and behind people
involved. The heaters must be mounted at
least 2 m above people´s heads.
Installation
Suspension brackets can be fitted directly to
the ceiling or wall. The mountings allow the
radiation to be varied 30° in any direction.
Note the permitted installation arrangements
and minimum distances shown on page 2.
In all installations the elements must be
horizontal. It is also possible to suspend the
heaters from cords(minimum Ø 3 mm).
Electrical installation
The apparatus must be permanently
connected. The installation must be carried
out by a qualified technician, and the
appropriate regulations must be followed.
A heat resistant connection cable that can
withstand a constant temperature of at least
90 °C, must be used when connecting the
heater. The connection box contains terminal
blocks for connecting cables with areas up to
16 mm². This makes it possible to connect
several heaters in parallel.
Maintenance
Note! When using for the first time or when
starting up after a long period of disuse, a
small amount of smoke and a slight odour
may occur temporarily, which is completely
normal. When an infra-red installation has
not been in use for some time, the elements
should be "dried". Switch on the heaters for

5-10 minutes and then allow them to cool.
The equipment will then be ready for use
again.
If the reflectors are dirty, they can be blast-
cleaned using compressed air or wiped clean
with a soft cloth.
Safety cut-out
The installation should be proctected by a
safety cut out of minimum 300 mA. If it trips
when the appliance is connected, this may be
due to moisture in the heating element.
When an appliance containing a heater
element, has not been used for a long period
and is stored in a damp environment,
moisture can enter the element. This should
not be seen as a fault, but is simply rectified
by connecting the appliance to the mains
supply via a socket without a safety cut-out
so that the moisture can be driven out of the
element. The drying time can vary from a few
hours to a few days. As a preventive measure
the infra-red heater should occasionally be
run for a short time when the heater is not
being used for an extended period of time.
Safety
• The surfaces of the apparatus become hot
during use.
• Ensure that there is no flammable material
in direct contact with, or under the heaters
where it could ignite.
• The unit must not be fully or partially
covered with inflammable materials, as
overheating can result in a fire risk!
• The apparatus must not be covered.
Overheating can cause a fire-hazard.
• The apparatus must not be fitted
immediately below permanent electrical
wall sockets.
• This product is not designed to be used by
children or persons with reduced physical
or mental ability or a lack of experience
and knowledge, unless instruction
regarding the product's use has been
given by a person with responsibility for
