SPACE-RAY Sura Electric High Intensity Halogen
Product Information
The Electric High Intensity Halogen Model Sura is an IP55 rated heater designed for general, local, and spot heating. It operates using the principle of radiant heat transfer, similar to the sun, by heating objects directly without heating up the air in between. The heater consists of various components, including a protective wire guard, quartz lamp holders and quartz lamp, reflector, hard case and end caps, connector box, wall hanger bracket with fixing screws, and electric cable. All components are manufactured according to EU directives and bear the CE marking.
Product Usage Instructions
Important Safety Information
Before installing or using the heater, ensure that your electricity supply
(capacity, earth, protection) is checked by authorized personnel. The
manufacturer is not responsible for any damage caused by improper installation
or usage of the product. Refer to the table below for the minimum height from
floor level for installed products:
Model | Power | Electrical Supply | Current | Min Height from Floor | Dimensions |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
GSS20 | 2kW | 230V | 8.25A | 2.5m | 430x166x95 |
GSS40 | 4kW | 230V | 17.4A | 3.5m | 830x166x95 |
Installation
- Fix the hanger bracket to the desired location (wall, column, or beam) where you want to install the heater.
- Use a spirit level to ensure that the heater is installed straight.
- Mark the location of the hanger fixing holes on the mounting surface.
- Drill the correct sized hole and insert the supplied plastic wall plugs.
- Fix the hanger bracket in place using the supplied screws.
Using the Heater
To use the heater:
- Do not touch the lamp(s) with bare hands. If you touch the lamp(s), clean the fingerprints with a soft and dry cloth using a volatile solvent such as alcohol.
- Avoid using the heater in environments where it can be exposed to water or stored improperly.
- Ensure that electrical connections are made by authorized personnel according to the instructions and wiring diagram provided.
- No de-assembly of any part of the device is required for electrical connection.
Removing the Heater
To remove the heater, follow the reverse steps of the installation process.
The Heater
- According to Thermodynamic Laws there are three types of heat transfers: conduction, convection and radiation.
- “Radiant Heaters” function using the radiant heat trans-fer principle, they act like the sun by heating the objects that they are exposed to. In other words, with radiant heating the objects, people, etc. are heated directly by a solid surface without heating up the air in between.
- The air warms up afterwards, by the convection heat released from the people and objects.
- It is possible to divide the radiant heaters in to two main classes. These are “Low Intensity Heaters”, “High and Medium Intensity Heaters”. SPACE-RAY SURA models belong to the latter.
- Each heater has a halogen electric lamp. The filament of these lamps reaches up to 1200°C, a short time after switching on. Thus, a comfortable warm feeling occurs just after start up. These characteristics of the heater provide economical and effective heating solutions for applications that are very high and wide, have poor insu-lation and outdoors. Additionally, they are clean, odor-less, silent and environmental friendly.
- SPACE-RAY™ SURA heaters can be used as general, local or spot heating appliances.
- All the equipment used in the production of the heaters are manufactured according to the EU directives, having the CE marking.

- It is not necessary to de-assemble of any part of the device to make the electrical connection. The connection should only be made according to the instructions and schematics given below.
- Please have your electricity supply (capacity, earth, protection) checked carefully by authorized personnel before installing it. The manufacturer is not responsible any damage caused due to the installation or usage of this product other than described within this manual.
- The below table shows the minimum height from floor level for installed products:
Installation
- The parts needed to install the product are provided within the box given to you. Please follow the instruc-tions given below:
- Fix the hanger bracket to the place (wall, column or beam) where you want to install the heater.
- Use a spirit level to ensure the heater is installed straight. Mark the location of the hanger fixing holes on the mounting surface, and drill the correct sized hole. Insert the plastic wall plugs (suuplied) and fix the hanger brack-et in place using the screws supplied.
- Please note, if fixing to a non-brick or concrete surface then please source and use the correct fixings required for the surface.
- Angle of the heater can be adjusted by loosening the screws on the hanger bracket, selecting your preferred angle and re-tightening the screws.
- Please make sure that the electrical connection of the heater is made according to the instructions and wiring details contianed within this document.
- The operation of the heater is made by switching on or off the electrical supply when the heater is required/not required.
