B.3 Electrical

WARNING Disconnect heater from power supply at integral disconnect or fuse box before opening enclosures or servicing heater.
Lock the switch in the “OFF” (open) position and tag the switch to prevent unexpected power application.
This heater should only be serviced by qualified personnel with electrical heating equipment experience.
Install and use the heater in accordance with local codes and this manual.

  1. General
    0.1 Use only approved copper conductors for installation. Refer to Section G -Technical Data, pagel4 and heater data plate for conductor rating.
    0.2 The power supply may be single or three phase as shown on the nameplate. Wiring diagrams are located on the inside of the control cabinet door (or refer to 8.4 Sample Wiring Schematics- GX Series Heater, page 8.

  2. Field Wiring
    0.1 Select a conduit style and conduit entrance fitting suitable for EEMAC 12 (dust tight and drip tight – indoor) applications. This is important since contamination of the control cabinet interior could significantly reduce the operating life of the control components.
    0.2 Remove the cabinet door to facilitate electrical access and connection.
    0.3 The control cabinet of the heater is constructed to EEMAC 12 standards and as such, we are not permitted to supply knockouts. After selection of the conductor and conduit entrance sizes, punch the appropriate hole into the control cabinet. We recommend the hatched area indicated in Figurel- Mounting Clearance “Wiring Entrance Area – Top View”, page 4 be used for ease of internal electrical connection.
    0.4 Grounding – a ground lug is located beside the terminal block. Ensure the unit is properly grounded before energizing.
    0.5 The heater is completely prewired internally. Connect the power conductors and any control conductors to the terminals as illustrated on the wiring diagram located inside the control cabinet door.

  3. Motor Rotation – Important
    0.1 Three phase heaters are supplied with motors of corresponding phase. The proper motor/fan rotation, viewed from the rear of the heater is counter clockwise. Incorrect rotation of the fan will cause the heater to overheat and cycle on the high limit. To reverse the fan rotation, interchange two supply voltage conductors connected to lugs L1, L2.

  4. Temperature Control
    0.1 guilt-In Thermostat – heaters with a factory installed thermostat have all other standard controls such as contactors, and transformers factory installed and prewi red.
    0.2 Thermostat Kit Fat-RA – (Field installed Install the FAT-8A thermostat kit in accordance with the instruction sheet provided.
    0.3 Remote I ine Vol taae Thermostat -A remote thermostat rated to operate as a pilot duty, inductive device on 240V is required. For proper installation and wiring of the selected thermostat, refer to the manufacturer’s instructions. Thermon can supply appropriate thermostats.
    0.4 Remota I ow Voltage Thermostat< – The heater can be provided with a low voltage control internally wired for remote connection to 24V thermostats. Ensure that this control option is installed in the heater before energizing a low voltage thermostat from the heater. For proper installation and wiring of the selected thermostat, refer to the manufacturer’s instructions. Thermon can supply low voltage thermostats for use with heaters.

  5. “Continuous Fan” Feature (Summer Switch)
    0.1 The “Continuous Fan” feature will allow the heater to cycle in a “heat” mode dictated by the controlling thermostat, even though the fan is operating continuously. 0.2 Terminals are provided for remote mount of a S.P.S.T. “Continuous Fan” switch, rated 240V 60 Hz. A jumper across terminals “T2” and “T3” is installed at the factory, and must be removed and substituted with the remote switch leads if this feature is to be available. Refer to Section B.4 Sample Wiring Schematics – GX Series Heater, page 6 to 9.
    0.3 A “Continuous Fan” switch may be factory installed (optional feature) directly in the heater.

  6. Fan Delay
    0.1 All heaters incorporate a fan delay feature in both the “ON” and “OFF” cycles. This is a desirable feature allowing the heater to come to temperature before the fan operates (no cold blasts) and to cool down in the “OFF” cycle (longer life for the control components and motor). Delay “ON” is 20-50 seconds and delay “OFF” is 20-70 seconds.

  7. Remote Energy Management Control
    0.1 Remote energy management control is standard on 40 kW and 50 kW units. Internal power to contactor coil C2 may be interrupted and controlled remotely by removing the jumper between terminals “T2” and “T3”, and then connecting a passive contactor in its place. A closed contact will allow 100% heating capacity and an open contact will allow 50% heating capacity. Refer to Section B.4 Sample Wiring Schematics – GX Series Heater, page 6 to 9.

  8. Final Inspection
    0.1 Before application of electrical power:
    0.2 Check that all connections are secured and comply with the applicable code requirements.
    0.3 Confirm that the supply voltage is compatible with the data plate specifications.
    0.4 Remove any foreign objects from the heater.
    0.5 Ensure all external fittings and enclosure covers are secured.
    0.6 Ensure that the fan rotates freely.
    0.7 If equipped, ensure manual reset thermal cut-out has been reset.

Subject to State or Provincial law to the contrary, the Company will not be responsible for any expense for installation, removal from service, transportation, or damages
of any type whatsoever, including damages arising from lack of use, business interruptions, or incidental or consequential damages.
The Company cannot anticipate or control the conditions of product usage and therefore accepts no responsibility for the safe application and suitability of its products when used alone or in combination with other products. Tests for the safe application and suitability of the products are the sole responsibility of the user.
This warranty will be void if, in the judgment of the Company, the damage, failure or defect is the result of:

  • Vibration, radiation, erosion, corrosion, process contamination, abnormal process conditions, temperature and pressures, unusual surges or pulsation, fouling, ordinary wear and tear, lack of maintenance, incorrectly applied utilities such as voltage, air, gas, water, and others or any combination of the aforementioned causes not specifi cally allowed for in  the design conditions or,
  • Any act or omission by the Purchaser, its agents, servants or independent contractors which for greater certainty, but not so as to limit the generality of the foregoing, includes physical, chemical or mechanical abuse, accident, improper installation of the product, improper storage and handling of the product, improper application or the misalignment of parts.

No warranty applies to paint fi nishes except for manufacturing defects apparent within 30 days from the date of installation.
The Company neither assumes nor authorizes any person to assume for it any other obligation or liability in connection with the product(s).
The Purchaser agrees that all warranty work required after the initial commissioning of the product will be provided only if the Company has been paid by the Purchaser in full accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract.
The Purchaser agrees that the Company makes no warranty or guarantee, express, implied or statutory, (including any warranty of merchantability or warranty of fitness for a particular purpose) written or oral, of the Article or incidental labour, except as is expressed or contained in the agreement herein.
LIABILITY: Technical data contained in the catalog or on the website is subject to change without notice. The Company reserves the right to make dimensional and other
design changes as required. The Purchaser acknowledges the Company shall not be obligated to modify those articles manufactured before the formulation of the changes in design or improvements of the products by the Company.
The Company shall not be liable to compensate or indemnify the Purchaser, end user or any other party against any actions, claims, liabilities, injury, loss, loss of use, loss of business, damages, indirect or consequential damages, demands, penalties, fines, expenses (including legal expenses), costs,  obligations and causes of action of any kind arising wholly or partly from negligence or omission of the user or the misuse, incorrect application, unsafe application, incorrect storage and handling, incorrect installation, lack of maintenance, improper maintenance or improper operation of products furnished by the Company.
