FRICO AD215E14 Electric Heat Air Curtain - Ambient, unheated
Electrically heated 3-18 kW
Water heated
Lengths: 1, 1,5 and 2 metres

Thermozone® AD 200 A/E/W
Air curtains for installation heights up to 2,5 meters
AD200 is an air curtain with a modern design for mounting over entry doors and other small doors with a height of up to 2,5 meters.
AD200 creates an air barrier, which effectively prevents cold draughts and ensures comfortable heating inside the door. Energy losses through openings are reduced, which means considerable savings. An adjustable air blower grille makes it possible to direct the air for an optimal air curtain effect.
An AD200 with a heater also contributes to the heating of a room. With AD200A without heat, it is possible to significantly reduce energy losses through openings in refrigerated rooms or openings in air-conditioned rooms.
AD200 can be built into false ceilings. For wide openings, it is possible to mount several units beside each other and control them with a single thermostat and control panel. The three different product lengths make it possible to cover openings of different widths. AD210C is a compact model with a built-in thermostat and control panel and equipped with cable and plug (AD210C05 cable only).

Mounting
Thermozone AD200 can be permanently mounted on the wall or on the ceiling using threaded drop rods together with a suspension kit, see next page. The air curtain can also be built into false ceilings, see Fig. 2. The unit can only be mounted horizontally, with the air outlet directed downwards. The minimum distance from the outlet to flammable material is 50 mm. The distance between the mounting brackets is adjustable, which simplifies mounting. Brackets suitable for each unit are included on delivery. The 2-meter units should be fitted using three fixing points. For best effect, the air curtain should cover the full width of the door and be placed as close to the opening as possible. For wider openings, it is possible to place several units beside each other to create a continuous air curtain. The units should then be positioned as close together as possible.
Connection AD 200E
The appliance should be isolated by a triple pole switch with at least 3 mm breaking gap. Connection is made through knockouts on the top side of the unit. For connection to the supply terminal block, a cable of a maximum 16 mm 2 is used. For connection to the control terminal block, a cable of a maximum of 4 mm 2 is used. For units with electrical heating, power and control should normally be supplied separately. For smaller units (current below 16 A), the supply could be common for both power and control, see technical specifications. For AD220E heating elements are divided and powered by two separate supplies. See wiring diagrams and dimension drawings.
Connection

FRICO AD215E14 Electric Heat Air Curtain - Fig 6 AD 200W 2 The control cable is connected via a knockout on the top side to the right (seen from inside the building). Connections (DN15 (1/2”), inside thread) to the water heating coil are located on the top of the unit to the left (seen from inside the building). See wiring diagrams and dimension drawings. See page for control kits and the chapter on Controls and accessories for further information.

Complete control kits

Ambient
airflow is controlled manually. Complete control kit:
– CB30N, control box, controls the airflow in 3 steps
Electric **
Level 1
Airflow is controlled manually. The room thermostat controls the heat output in 2 steps.
Control kit CK01E:
– CB32N, control box, controls the airflow in steps and heat output in 2 steps
– RTI2, 2-step room thermostat.
Level 2
Airflow and heat output are controlled automatically based on the opening of the door and the room temperature. When the door is open the fan runs at high speed, when the door closes the fan will continue to run for the desired time (2s–10 min.) set on MDC. When the door is closed the fan runs on low speed if there is a need for heating, if not the fan is switched off. The room thermostat controls the heat output. E.g. the thermostat is set on 23 °C and the difference between the steps is 4 °C. The thermostat will activate below 19 °C when the door is closed. When the door opens, the thermostat will activate below 23 °C and normally the heat is switched on. Control kit CK02E:
– The B32N, control box, controls the airflow in 3 steps and heat output in 2 steps
– MDC, magnetic door contact with time delay
– RTI2, 2-step room thermostat
Level 3
Airflow and heat output are controlled automatically based on the opening of the door, outdoor temperature, and room temperature. The system is based on an advanced microprocessing regulator in an attractive design. All parameters are pre-programmed for easy and quick installation. Control kit CK03:
– ADEA, regulator (complete with outdoor sensor, built-in room sensor, and door contact)
– ADEAIS, indoor sensor
– ADEAEB, control board, for external mounting Read more about the operation and usage of ADEA in the chapter on Controls and accessories.
