CONSTRUCTION:
Heavy 18 gauge welded steel cabinet with powder coated nish and control compartment housing a master
terminal board with a hinged and latched access door, simplifying wiring, installation & maintenance.
HEATING ELEMENT:
Copper clad steel sheath element with
continuously brazed steel ns formed to
allow side draw through air ow.
OVERHEAT PROTECTION:
All units come equipped with automatic
reset type limit controls to de-energize
the heater should an over-temperature
situation occur.
FAN and MOTOR:
Totally enclosed, 1-speed, 1-phase,
permanently lubricated, thermally
protected motors with unit bearings on 3
KW - 20 KW models. Totally enclosed,
2-speed, 1-phase, permanently lubricated,
thermally protected motors with sleeve
bearings on 25 KW - 50 KW models. All
motors mounted with rubber insulators to
minimize vibration & noise. Fan over-
ride purges unit of residual heat at shutdown.
LOUVER ASSEMBLY:
Louvers are individually adjustable for directional control
of air ow up to 15° from straight horizontal. Optional
diffusers available for down ow (vertical discharge) applications.
TEMPERATURE CONTROLS:
Optional low voltage and line voltage thermostats available
with an adjustable temperature range of 40°F to 110°F.
Units with model numbers ending in CA1 are factory wired
for low voltage controls. 25 KW through 50 KW units are
designed for two stage heating operation.
INSTALLATION:
Unit Heaters can be mounted for horizontal or vertical discharge.
Applications up to 6000 Ft. See UH Series above 6000 Ft.
FEATURES:
• Made in U.S.A.
FIELD INSTALLED OPTIONS:
• In-unit or wall mounted temperature control thermostats
low or line voltage.
• Summer fan switch to operate the fan only.
• Power disconnect switch.
• Heat stratication thermostat.

DETERMINING HEATER REQUIREMENTS
Calculate the heating loads using the NEMA handbook or ASHRAE guide. Then determine the quantity and size of unit
heaters to be used. To maintain uniform heat and reduce stratied air, it is recommended that the total CFM of the units turn
the air over approximately 3 times per hour. In instances where a large group of people are located and normally in the
same area, use a large number of lower KW unit heaters. In warehouse areas or storage rooms where heat distribution and
constant temperatures are less important, use fewer heaters of higher capacity.
HORIZONTAL MOUNT
Small rooms can be heated by one unit heater. Where two walls are exposed, heaters should be mounted as shown in Figure
A. In larger rooms, units should he located so their air streams wipe exposed walls without blowing at them. Units should be
located so that the air stream of one supports that of another thus setting up a circulatory air movement shown in
Figure
B.
(Distance between units to be approximately 1-1/2 times published air throw.) Units should not be mounted horizontally in
areas having ceiling heights in excess of 15-18 ft.
VERTICAL MOUNT
Units should be mounted vertically in high bay areas, or where heater location would not interfere with plant operation or
trafc, Heaters should be situated to provide free air circulation. Size and selection of units should be based on recommended
mounting height. Optional diffusers may best be employed to reduce high air velocity and at the same time disperse heated
air in a uniform pattern. When unit heaters are used to combat cold air inrush from opened loading dock doors, one or more
units should be arranged to blow warm air across opening (Figure C).
DUAL MOUNTING
Where square footage is large and comfort essential, both horizontal and vertical installations may best serve your
requirements as Figure D demonstrates.
