DESCRIPTION
Electricalductheaters CVA aredesignedto heatfresh airin ventilation systems. Casing (CVA protection class IP
44, except CVA Type NV which protection class IP 30) is made from Aluzinc coated steel which is high temperature
proof and with rubber seals for duct connection. Tube of heating element is made from stainless steel AISI 304.
Thereare2protectionthermostatsandscrewterminalsforeasyconnectioninstalledin the heaters.
Heaters can be installed horizontally with the electrical connection box facing upwards or sideways and
vertically (only if the air flow direction upwards). Heaters can't be installed in explosive and aggressive substances
environment. Heaters can be used only for the clean air heating or preheating. Heaters intended only for inside
installation. If heater is installed in such way that can be accidental contact with heating elements, protective grill
must be installed. The air velocity in the duct of the heater must be 1,5 m/s minimum. The maximum temperature
oftheoutputis 50°C.

INSTALLATION AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Electrical duct heaters CVA can be installed horizontally in any position except electrical connection box
downwardandvertically(onlyif theair flow directionupwards)(see Fig. 2).
Fig. 2
We recommend install supply air temperature sensor in distance multiplied by the heater's diameter (3xD).
Forexample:heaterCVAdiameter200mm,sensor'sinstallationdistancewill be:3x200=600mm.

*- TR5K is used in CVA MPE heater version.
**- Temperature set point knob is used in CVA MPI heater version.

IMPORTANT:
The installation to the mains power supply may only be wired by a competent electrician. The power
supply cable must be selected in the ratio with power of the heater. When installing these heaters, the
standards and regulations in force in your countrymust befollowed strictly adhered to. Within the installation
an electricalisolationautomaticcircuitbreaker(not included)mustbe present, to enablethe installerto cut all
power supply lines. Automatic circuit breaker must be selected regarding power and nominal current (see the
electrical ratingplateon thelidof heater)of theheaterand should have characteristic B. Connectthe heater to
the mains power supply, check thatthe voltage, frequency, powerand current are the same as those indicated
ontheelectricalrating plate.Theheatermustbeearthed.
