FAQs

What type of power supply does this heater require?

This heater requires a 415V/3ph - 63A (three-phase) power supply. It is not compatible with standard domestic 230V single-phase outlets.

Does the heater come with an extension cable?

No, the heater is supplied with a 3-phase chassis-mounted connector, but the required 3-phase extension cable is sold separately.

What is the advantage of the 'dry heat' feature?

Dry heat means the heater produces heat without releasing moisture, gases, fumes, or smells. This is ideal for enclosed spaces where condensation or fumes would be problematic, such as workshops and garages.

Can I use this heater to simply circulate air?

Yes, the heater includes a 'fan only' option which allows it to be used for air circulation without producing heat.

How large an area can this heater cover?

The heater is specified to cover a heated area of up to 600m³ and has a heat output of 30kW (102,500 Btu/hr).

What is the purpose of the auto-cooling system?

The auto-cooling system helps to cool the unit down after it has been switched off, preventing internal components from overheating and prolonging the life of the heater.

How do I adjust the temperature?

The heater features an adjustable thermostat control, allowing you to set and maintain your desired room temperature.

Troubleshooting

Heater does not turn on.

Verify that the 3-phase power supply is correctly connected and live. Ensure the unit is securely plugged into the 415V/3ph - 63A outlet using the correct extension cable. Check if the circuit breaker for the power source has tripped.

No heat output, only fan is running.

Ensure the thermostat is set above the ambient room temperature and that a heat setting (low or high) has been selected, not just the fan-only mode.

Unit shuts off unexpectedly.

The auto-cooling system may have activated. Allow the unit to cool down completely. Check for any obstructions around the air vents that might cause overheating or activate safety cut-offs.

Weak airflow.

Check for any blockages in the air intake or outlet vents. If the unit has a filter, ensure it is clean and free of dust or debris. Ensure the fan speed setting is appropriate.

  • Not compatible with standard domestic 230V single-phase power outlets.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Regularly clean the exterior casing with a soft, damp cloth. Ensure the unit is unplugged and completely cool before cleaning.
  • Filters: If applicable, check and clean any air intake filters according to the manufacturer's instructions to maintain optimal airflow and performance. (Note: Filter details not specified in product data).
  • Storage: Store in a clean, dry location when not in use. Ensure the power cord is not damaged.
