Important notice
There is a fire risk if assembled incorrect-
ly. Please read these assembly instruc-
tions carefully. Take special note of the
measurement details and the following
notes.
• This device has not been designed for
being used by persons (including children)
that are physically or mentally handicap-
ped or have sensory disabilities. Moreover,
it is not allowed to use this device without
sufficient experience and/or knowledge,
unless these persons will be supervised
by persons responsible for their security
or in case they have been instructed how
to use this device.
• Children are to be supervised in order to
make sure that they do not play with this
device.
• The infrared thermal emitter is intended for
a connection voltage of 230 V 50 Hz via an
infrared controller.
• Assembly and connection to the infrared
controller must be carried out in accor-
dance with the connection diagram (Fig.
11).
• Before the emitter is operated via the con-
troller, check that all connectors are firmly
connected with no risk of coming loose.
• The EU 60335-2-53 (VDE 0700 Part 53)
regulations are to be complied with inside
the infrared booth
• Only the number of emitters specified for
the size of the booth should be assembled
in the infrared thermal booth. Please ask
your cabin manifactor or dealer.
• One of the controllers specified below
should be used to regulate or control the
infrared emitter. This controller should be
fixed to the infrared thermal booth in ac-
cordance with the assembly instructions.
• Attention: Covering the infrared
thermal emitter causes a fire risk!

Dear Customer,
You have purchased a high quality technical
system which will provide you with many ye-
ars of enjoyable using. This infrared emitter
was constructed in accordance with state-of-
the-art European safety standards, inspected
and manufactured in accordance with the
Quality Standard DIN ISO EN 9001:2000.
This detailed installation and user‘s guide was
created for your information. Please note
especially the important notice and the data
dealing with the electrical connection.
First of all, check whether the infrared emitter
has arrived at your site undamaged. Register
transport damage claims immediately with
the delivering transport company or please
consult the supplier who provided the equip-
ment to you.

• The assembly of the infrared emitter in
the booth must be carried out in such a
way to assure even all-round emission
for the sauna frequenter.
• The infrared thermal emitter is not sui-
table to assembly on the booth ceiling.
• If the infrared thermal emitter is assem-
bled in the rear area, then appropriate
protective measures must be taken to
ensure that the flocked protection gril-
le cannot be pressed in unintentionally
(e.g. a wooden grille mounted in front).
• Take care to ensure that the main ener-
gy discharge occurs through the infra-
red radiation.
Additionally, however, a thermal heat
discharge arises at the housing in the
vertical assembly. This heat can stress
the emitter thermally! Caution: fire
risk!
Ensure that this hot convection air can
escape by rising freely.
If necessary, appropriate steps should
be taken (e.g. thermal protection slabs)
to ensure that the wood is not exposed
to inadmissible temperatures.
• The infrared thermal emitter is equip-
ped with a silicon connection cable
with a 3-pin connector. This connector
is joined to the connector of the infra-
red controller with a free outlet.
Care must be taken to ensure that the
earth is properly tight.
• Up to 5 infrared thermal emitters may
be connected to this socket distributi-
on.
For practical reasons, the connector
should be fitted to the booth ceiling.
• Take care to ensure that the special
emitter is not subject to any mechani-
cal stresses (knocks, pressure). Risk
of breakage.
Although breakage is unlikely if it
is used properly, if the ceramic
emitter should break, replace it with a
new one. Caution: fire risk in the case
of a broken emitter.
The IR-emitter is designed for mounting in
a IR-warm cabin or sauna only. It just can
be used with a controller. The warranty is
not to apply for other use.
Attention!
If there is any skin desease or
illness, you should ask a doctor
before using.

Caution:
If the connection cable of this appliance be-

special connection cable which can be ob-
tained from the manufacturer or customer
service department.
For assembly, the connection cables should
be fed through blank tubes or protected from
damage in other appropriate ways.

For a too long time looking in the emitter,
your eyes can be demaged.
Please use in this case suitable protective
glasses.
Caution!
Remove the transport stabilisers from the
Vitae- emitter, loosening the covering grille.
Remove the foamed pad. Take care that the
Vitae-emitter does not be demaged.

Assembly
The emitter should be assembled in such a
way as to ensure that the body of the fre-
quenter radiates over as large an area as
possible.
Assembly in the four corners of the infrared
booth is recommended.

a person and the infrared emitter: 30-50

Assembly example:
For assembly, a right-angled opening must
be fitted vertically into the wood.
This opening is filled out horizontally for the
net emitter.
The emitter can then be assembled with
the enclosed chipboard screws (see Fig.
6 and 7).

Minimum distances
he minimum distance from the emitter upper
edge to the booth ceiling must be 7 cm.
The minimum distance from the emitter lo-
wer edge to the wooden floor of the booth
must be 9 cm (Fig.5).
The horizontal minimum distance between
the emitter and all combustible parts must
be 4 cm (Fig.6).
Very important!
In the case of vertical assembly (connec-
tion always upwards or in accordance
with the booth manufacturer‘s specifica-
tions), the area above the emitter should
not be encased with wood in front (Fig.
1). Hot air rising when the housing is
heating must be able to escape freely.
Fire risk!
In the case of horizontal assembly in
the area of the nets (net emitter), the
emitter may not be covered by objects
such as towels, and must be made
safe if necessary by fitting an additio-
nal wooden grille. Fire risk!
Caution!
For assembly of the net emitter, the
measurements specified in Fig. 5
must be complied with.
