* Indicate model number based on Btu/hr input (e.g., 100,000 Btu/hr), total emitter length, (e.g., 40 ft.) and gas type (e.g., natural gas single stage
input).The unit selection for a straight tube would be RSS100-40-N1 and for a U-tube would be RSU100-40-N1.
** Available only on RSS models.
ALC Option: All heat treated aluminized steel (ALC) radiant emitter tubes for ALC option the model number would be
RSS100-40-ALC-N1.
Note: for carwashes, dairy barns, greenhouses, swimming pools, waste water treatment plants, and other high
humidity/corrosive environments, the ALC option with all heat treated aluminized tubes is recommended.
Note: For installations higher than 2000 ft above sea level, please consult the factory regarding recommended derating of heaters.

How It Works
A low voltage circuit continuously
monitors the clearance above the
reflector for excessive overheat and tube
integrity compromise. If that should ever
happen, the safety circuit is broken and
shuts down the gas controls.
You may never know it is there, but on a positive pressure tube
heater it is nice to know you have the Tube Integrity Safety System.

TUBE INTEGRITY SAFETY SYSTEM
In the unlikely event of a tube failure, Tube Integrity Safety
System has been designed to automatically shut-off the
heater, providing greater safety and piece of mind.
