DESCRIPTION

The entire product is constructed from powder-coated, corrosion-resistant, galvanized sheet steel.

The machine comprises 3 main modules.

Module 1. (Fan module) includes wheels, lter, fan and lifting eyes.

Module 2. (Heating module) includes display, control card, inlet, fuses and heating element.

Module 3. Air distributor

Module 1.

- 4 x heavy-duty wheels for moving machine, 2 of which are lockable.

- 4 x lifting eyes for moving machine or suspending it from ceiling.

- 2 x lters with additional pre-lter for extended life (TF 18EL, TF 36EL, TF 72EL).

1 x lter with additional pre-lter for extended life (TF 9EL).

Module 2.

- Inlet, fuses and temperature/humidity sensors are well protected beneath overhang.

- Removable cover on top for electrical box. Accessible only by qualied service technician.

- All machine controls are provided on the display. See instructions for display.

Module 3.

Air distributor.

The air is drawn in through two lters (one lter TF 9EL) from the front and rear of the machine

(Module 1). This acts like an intake noise attenuator as air pressure builds up in the fan compartment.

The air is heated (Module 2) by the heating elements and ows out through the textile air distributor

(Module 3) which propels the warm, dry air over a long distance.

nated place. Connect the El-Björn metal air distrib-

utor. Connect the power cable to a fused 5-pin 16 A

socket that is protected by a residual current device.

TF 18EL EBC: ts designated place. Lock the

wheels on the machine. Connect the power cable

to a fused 5-pin 32 A socket that is protected by a

residual current device.

TF 36EL EBC: Position the machine in its des-

ignated place. Lock the wheels on the machine.

Connect the El-Björn metal air distributor. Connect

the power cable to a fused 5-pin 63 A socket that is

INSTALLATION

CHECK BEFORE USE

That the machine is protected by a residual cur-

rent device.

That the lter is tted and is clean and undam-

aged.

That cables and connectors are undamaged and in

good condition.

That the metal air distributor is correctly connect-

ed and unobstructed.

That the wheels are locked.

Check that the machine is positioned at least 0.5 m

away from the wall.

That the machine always stands on a rm, level

surface.

INSTALLATION

In order to achieve the best drying and heating

performance, the machine should be positioned

as centrally in the room as possible. The machine

must run continuously in order to achieve optimal

results. Minimum distance from wall: 0.5 m. The

machine should only be used upright, with its

wheels/feet at the lowest point. If the machine is

to be suspended, use the 4 lifting eyes provided on

OPERATION

HANDLING DURING NORMAL OPERA-

TION

Start & stop

See the display instructions.

Adjusting the indoor temperature

See the display instructions.

Replacement of lter

• Replace the lter when the lter alarm appears.

The lter must be tted so that the arrow on the

lter points inwards towards the machine. Always

use original lters from El-Björn.

• Turn off the machine using the display and replace

the lter.

• Restart the machine.

NOTE! Use a respirator and gloves when replacing

the air lter Put the spent lter in a bag and close it.

HANDLING DURING ABNORMAL OPER-

ATION

Check that the fuses in the nearest electrical cabinet

have not blown and that the residual current device

has not tripped

Check the fuses inside the machine.

Resetting the overheating protector. See instruc-

tions for display.

Restart the machine when it has cooled down. The

motor protector is reset automatically. If this does

Cooling down

IMPORTANT!

The heating elements get very hot (about 300°C),

so it is vital that the machine is switched off

correctly. By switching off the machine from the

display it ensures the heating elements are cooled

down quickly and extends the life of the machine.

This must be done every time the machine is

turned off prior to lter replacement or before the

machine is moved. See instructions for display.

DEINSTALLATION

Turn off the machine according to the display instructions. (This extends the life of the machine).

Disconnect the electrical cable. The machine can now be transported.

• Keep the machine in good condition by ser-

vicing it regularly.

• Before using the machine, always check the

operation of the main components (contactor,

fan and heating elements).

• Check and tighten the heating elements.

• Check and tighten electrical connections on

the machine.

• Check that there are no loose screws and that

all parts are properly attached.

• Make sure there are no defective parts that

could compromise safety.

SERVICE

MAINTENANCE

Day-to-day maintenance should be performed on site by an appointed operator.

NOTE! After the rst season of use it is especially important to tighten electrical connections,

the fan motor mounting and heating element nuts and connections.

Warning!

To eliminate the risk of injury, always disconnect from the electrical supply before starting any

service work. The following points must be checked by the operator.

• In the event of abnormal noise or vibrations,

switch off the machine immediately and make

sure the fault is repaired.

• Replace the lter when the lter alarm ap-

pears.

• Never use a machine that is damaged.

• Always mark a defective machine with “Not to

be used” until it has been repaired.

EN

Cleaning

• Always replace the lter after use.

• Clean externally with a mild soap solution and

a damp cloth. The display can be cleaned with

glass cleaner and a soft cloth.

• Air-blow the inside of the machine carefully,

then wipe with a damp cloth.

• Never use inammable or combustible sol-

vents near the machine.

NOTE!

All repairs to electrical parts must be per-

formed by a qualied professional or the

manufacturer.

TROUBLESHOOTING/CHECK LIST

The machine does not start

• Check that the fuses in the nearest electrical

cabinet are intact.

• Check whether the residual current device in

the nearest electrical cabinet has tripped.

• The machine has overheated and cannot be

restarted until the temperature has dropped.

• Check whether the fuses in the machine have

tripped. These are located beneath the inlet

behind the fuse cover.

TRANSPORTATION/STORAGE

The machine must always be transported upright. Before transporting the machine, x the air distrib-

utor in its lowered position if necessary. During transportation, the machine must be anchored to the

transport vehicle. The machine should only be lifted using the 4 lifting eyes on the sides of Module 1.
