Panther 20-30kW GB
Overheating
If the unit overheats the in-built temperature cut-out will
trip. Reset the temperature cut-out once the unit has
cooled and the fault has been rectified. (Fig. 2)
NOTE! All work inside the unit’s connection area must
be carried out by a qualified technician and while the
unit is not voltage ted.
Maintenance
Normally the heater fan does not require any
maintenance. Dirt and dust can however cause
overheating and represent a fire risk. Consequently,
the unit should be cleaned periodically.
Earth-fault breaker
If the installation is protected by an earth-fault
breaker, which trips when the unit is connected, this
may be due to moisture in the heating element.
When a unit containing a heater element has not
been used for a long period and is stored in a damp
environment moisture can enter the element. This
should not be seen as a fault, but is simply rectified
by connecting the unit to the mains supply via a
socket without an earth-fault breaker so that the
moisture can be driven out of the element. The drying
time can vary from a few hours to a few days. When
the heater shall not be used for a long period a good
preventive measure is to occasionally run the heater
for a short time.
Safety
•During operation the surfaces of the unit are hot!
•The unit should not be position ed so that inflammable
materials can ignite!
•The unit must not be partly or fully covered with clothes
or similar material as overheating can represent a fire
risk!
•The unit must not be placed directly under a
permanent wall socket!
Application area
The heater fans type PANTHER are not intended for
anything other than to heat buildings. The fans are suitable
for use in areas such as warehouses. workshops, etc. The
heater fans are approved by SEMKO. Protection class:
Splashproof design.
Electrical connection
The heater fans have a terminal block for the connection of
the permanent mains supply and terminal blocks for an
external switch. thermostat and timer. There are four
knockouts at the back for the external connections. These
should be fitted with a grommet when used to guarantee
the protection class.
Installation
Installation shall be permanent and performed by a
qualified technician in accordance with applicable
directives. The installation shall be preceded by a fully
isolating switch with at least a 3 mm contact opening and
preferably fitted with a status lamp. Check that the main
voltage and the data on the typa plate correspond. The
wiring diagram can be found attached to the inside of the
top cover and in these assembly instructions.
NOTE! All work should be carried out when the unit is not
voltage fed.
Assembly
•The heater fans should be mounted on a wall.
•Note that the minimum spacing as set out in fig. 1. on
page 3 must be kept. The heater fan must not be
mounted so the output is directed towards the wall, fig.3.
•Loosen the bracket fram the unit by unscrewing the lower
screws completely and the upper screws as far as
required.
•Mark off and drill holes for the screws as shown in the
diagram on page 2.
•Screw in the screws for the keyhole slots until approx. 10
mm remains. Put up the bracket.
•Screw the upper screws into the unit until 10 mm
remains.
•Suspend the unit on the bracket and adjust to the desired
angle.
•Screw in the lower screws and then tighten all screws.
Operation
Switching the unit on-off. output selection and speed
settings are all made using a selector located away from
the unit; even a thermostat and other contrals (timer. etc.)
are fitted away from the unit.
If the unit does not work the first time it is used the
temperature cut-out may have trippad during transport. See
”Overheating”.
