DESCRIPTION
EK mobile electrical space heaters have been designed to heat pla-
ces of different kind: industrial, civil, wharehouses, building yards, pu-
blic places. Air is taken from the environment through a fan and heated
by armour-plated resistences.
The fan and resistences are inside the machine and the air comes
in and out through proper grids. Space heaters are made of steel
sheets and provided with a double wall to enhance the machine effi-
ciency and to limit the external walls temperatures. They are provided
with feet as well, to be mounted before use. They will grant a very good
stability to the machine provided that it is placed on an horizontal solid
surface.
GENERAL ADVICES
Space heaters must be installed, set up and used in accordance
with existing laws.
Few general guidelines should be followed:
• follow the instructions in this booklet very carefully;
o do not install the heater near showers, bathtubs or swimming
pools;
• do not place the heater immediately under a fixed wall socket;
• the heater must be placed on a firm surface to avoid overturning;
• inflammable materials must be kept at a safe distance from the
heater;
• the heater must not be covered;
• make sure heater is always under surveillance and keep children
and animals away from it;
• after use make sure the disconnecting switch is off .
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Attention:
Use the four given screws to fix the feet as shown in the
picture before using the heater.
Models EK 3 A must be connected to a 230V ~ grounded wall
socket, while models EK 9 A and EK 15 A are equipped with a CEE
plug to be connected to a 400V 3 ~ grounded electric mains.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
THERMOSTAT 0-40 C°
Turn on the ON-OFF switch (a).
By setting the room thermostat at the desired temperature level,
the heater will start and stop automatically. When the selected tempe-
rature level is reached, the fan only goes on for some time (see para-
graph "POSTVENTILATION").
POWER SELECTOR
You can choose the delivered power through the selector (b) as
follows:
Mod
EK 3 A [kW]
EK 9 A [kW]
EK 15 A [kW]
TEMPERATURE-LIMIT THERMOSTAT
A temperature-limit thermostat will stop power feeding in case of
overheating. If the thermostat releases, disconnect fan electricity, wait
until the fan has cooled and fix the problem causing overheating. In
models EK3 A and EK9 A press the RESET button on the heater cover
to reset the temperature-limit thermostat.
In models EK15 A the reset will take place on the back of the ma-
chine, next to the RESET label: unscrew the protective hood and press
the red button, replace the hood not to compromise the heater insula-
tion protection level.
POSTVENTILATION
When the room temperature reaches the valve set on the thermo-
stat, the heating stops and the fan goes on until the resistances have
cooled down.
TURNING OFF
To stop the appliance, turn the ON-OFF switch (a) to "0" position.
MANTEINANCE
Attention:
Before carrying out any maintenance operation you
must:
• Stop the heater;
• Turn off the disconnecting switch on the electric swit-
chboard;
• Wait until the heater has cooled down.
CLEANING
For the heater to operate efficiently, cleaning operations must be
carried out regularly. Dust and dirt may result in overheating and fire.
