Electronic Unit HeaterKB PlatinumX Series
The KB PlatinumX Horizontal Unit Heater
King’s KB PlatinumX series unit heaters are the most full-featured unit heaters on the market, with in-built electronic
thermostat for accuracy and remote control for simple operation. Comes standard with a provision for adding an optional 24V thermostat
for remote temperature control. Includes integrated summer fan only and thermostat timer modes, the KB PlatinumX has you covered.
Designed for use as primary or supplemental heat sources in large or exposed areas, including high-rise buildings, stores, warehouses,
garages, water treatment and fire room vaults to prevent freezing. Spiral finned steel elements and high CFM ensure even air distribution
producing cooler element operation, prolonging heater life. By combining the highest quality components, with a dynamically balanced fan
blade, the KB PlatinumX unit heater will provide years of trouble-free service. Includes universal wall/ceiling bracket for simple installation.
Engineering Specifications
Construction: All exterior and interior metal enclosure parts are made from
20 gauge electrogalvanized Steel with a rust inhibiting baked enamel finish.
Smooth rounded corners and protective edge trim give an attractive modern
appearance.
Adjustable Outlet Louver: Louvers direct air up or down as needed for the
heating application.
Rear Intake Screen: Heavy gauge steel screen protects against foreign
objects making accidental contact with the rotating fan blade.
Spiral Fin Elements: The metal sheath element is copper brazed with spiral
fins then molded into a coil configuration. This combination produces the best
heat transfer while eliminating the potential for hot spots by positioning the
element in the maximum airflow stream.
Totally Enclosed Fan Motor: Permanently lubricated long life, unit bearing
with 20cc of oil. Epoxy-coated motor with enclosed rotor resists moisture and
corrosion for long-lasting, trouble-free operation.
Aluminum Fan Blade: Axial flow-type fan mounted directly to the motor shaft
for maximum efficiency.
Contractor shall supply and install KB PlatinumX Series unit heaters manufactured by King Electrical Mfg. Company. Heaters shall be of the
wattage and voltage as indicated on the plans.
Thermal Overload: Heaters shall be equipped with King’s patented thermal overload
Smart Limit Protection®, which disconnects elements and motor in the event normal
operating temperatures are exceeded. If thermal overload trips due to abnormal
operating temperatures, thermal overload shall remain open until manually reset by
turning the heater off for 15 minutes. Automatically reset of thermal overloads, which
allow the element to continue to cycle under abnormal conditions, will not be accepted.
Internal Controls: Magnetic contactors are standard on all 480V heaters, all
208V/1-Phase, 240V/1-Phase, 277V/1-Phase heaters above 6kW, and all 3-Phase
heaters.
Provision For 24V Remote Thermostat: Includes terminals to connect an optional
24V 2-Stage Thermostat.Compatible with NEST / any 24V WIFI Stat
Fusing: Internal circuit fusing is provided when the heater ampacity exceeds 48 Amps
to comply with N.E.C. standards. A fan delay is provided standard on models 12.5-kW
and above to dissipate residual heat from the heating elements.
Easy Installation: A quick access panel located on the bottom of the heater allows
for quick wiring and easy maintenance for the life of the heater. Includes universal
wall/ceiling bracket for simple installation.
