Installation

Panels can be hung from the ceiling using chains or cords attached to brackets, or from the wall at an angle with the aid of tiltable mounting brackets. The brackets are supplied with the panel, unassembled. Metal wall anchors must be used for the attachment of the brackets, chains or cords.

The radiant panel can also be installed at an angle as well as vertically, but it mustn't be installed in such a way that the supply lead and terminal are at the highest point of the panel. There is higher convection of heat when the panel is tilted and this heat would irreversibly damage the electrical equipment of the terminal. Therefore the bottom edge should be at least 180 cm away from the floor, while the top edge should have a distance from the ceiling of at least 30 cm.

Clearance distances from flammable objects:

  • - min. 100 cm from the radiant surface
  • - min. 30 cm from other parts of the panel

The panel mustn't be placed directly under an electric socket.

Connection of the panel

  • The panel is fitted with a 2 m long connection lead with a plug.

 

In the case of connection to a wiring box, the cutting off of the plug is not a reason for the loss of warranty. In this case, switching-off the device is mandatory and the distance between disconnected contacts should be at least 3.5 mm for all poles that need to be installed in the wiring.

The level of heat and turning on or off the device can be controlled via switches and remote that swap the relays and contactors in the switch board.

The electrical installation must comply with the valid standards of the country where they are installed.

Maintenance

This is limited only to dusting and possibly wiping with a damp cloth and detergent. The radiant surface is not to be cleaned.

 

Important information

During the first heating of the panel, the surface burns out a little, which can cause a harmless smell (accompanied by smoke) for a period of max. 60 minutes.

Do not touch the heating segments in order not to keep the radiant surfaces clean (if it's absolutely necessary to touch the surface, then do it only when wearing clean textile gloves).

The temperature of the surroundings of the heating panel (the temperature of the surrounding air) mustn't exceed 30°C.
