Fuel savings of up to 50% should be realized by large industrial buildings with high bays such as this 35 Installation.
Conventional unit heaters replaced on this loading dock and in six other areas had a payback period of less than two years.
Equal or better comfort at 5 to 10 degree lower thermostat settings keep them flying in hangars and repair facilities

**IN APPLICATIONS LIKE THESE AND YOURS, ADAMS GAS INFRA-RED HEATERS SAVE

ENERGY AND IMPROVE COMFORT**

K-SERIES SUGGESTED SHORT FORM SPEC
Gas fired infra-red heaters shall be fumished and installed in accordance with local codes, building drawings and manufacturer’s recommendations. Heaters shall have sufficient fresh air to provide adequate combustion air and the removal of products of combustion. One square inch of net free inlet area shall be provided per 1.000 BTUH input for combustion. Positive air displacement of 4 CFM per 1,000 BTUH for natural gas or 5 CFM per 1,000 BTUH for LP/propane is required for venting in the US. Heaters shall be capable of angle mounting from 0 to 30**, without the use of an additional reflector. The ceramic radiant surface shall be horizontal when heater is installed at 0.

Heaters shall be certified by CSA International (formerty the American and Canadian Gas Associations). Design certified to American National Standard Institute ANSI 283.6 Including compliance with section 2.9, Radiant Coefficient, without the use of a secondary re-radiating surface of either rods or screen.

HEATER CONTROLS

Burner shall be; fully tested and ready to hang, pipe and wire for operation; bear either the AGA or CGA serial plate, operate on Natural or Propane gas (NAT/LP.): equipped with one of the following controls: (DSAN/DSAL) direct spark ignition 100% safety shut off with flame monitoring, 115 VAC – 6VA Max power consumption, (OSAN/OSAL) direct spark ignition 100% safety shut off with flame monitoring, 25 VAG-SVA Max power consumption, (TAN/TAL) Millivolt ignition – no electrical power to operate, 100% safety shut off with a constant pilot and is supplied w/35′ of 18-2 wire and a millivolt thermostat. Controls. utilizing a pilot shall have a field adjustable gas regulator and the pilot flame is contained so as to protect if from drafts. Each burner is fitted with an orifice(s) for proper air to gas mixture for sea level. Burner(s) can be ordered or converted for use at high altitudes, or with either LP or Natural gas all with a ½2 FPT gas inlet.

BURNER HEAD/COMBUSTION SURFACE
The burner(s) shall include the ceramic combustion surface, a plenum chamber, a venturi mixer and shall be removable with a single screw for cleaning or replacement without disconnecting any gas, electrical or hanging device. The ceramic combustion surface shall be capable of reaching temperatures up to 1850°F (an incandescent appearance) and withstand thermal shock when water quenched. It shall be a cordierite-based grooved ceramic of an exclusive permeable design whereby alternate rows of 230 perforations per square inch, terminate at the bottom of slots making one-half of the flame below the top surface of the ceramic and creating a more intimate contact between flame and surface.

This will increase the ceramic surface temperature and the radiant output while maintaining a lower gas input and achieving greater wind resistance. The Plenum chamber shall be of 20 ga. (035) corrosion-free aluminized steel, one- piece fabrication and seamless no-weid construction. The plenum chamber shall utilize a one-piece stainless steel retainer to hold the ceramic surface in place around its entire perimeter, a 14 ga. (.083) aluminized steel, back bracket for holding it in place to achieve proper alignment of the surface, venturi and orifice.

MAIN FRAME

The main frame shall be 16 ga. (.065″) corrosion-free aluminized steel and of no-weird construction. The main frame shall have a double-turned upper edge. The side frames shall have four (4) ¾* holes for easy mounting of an “S” hook and chain.

REFLECTORS
Reflectors shall be of 21 ga. (0.032″) Mirrör Brite Aluminum Finish (highly polished). Reflector design (shape) shall be of standard design and be mounted to the heater at the factory. An optional certified parabolic reflector extension is used for concentrating infra-red energy, usually for spot heating or higher mounting height applications. Optional certified accessories: protective screens, secondary re-radiating wire grids, and heat shields available for K-30 thru K-100 for decreased clearances to combustibles above the heater. Heaters shali carry a manufacturer’s limited warranty covering the combustion surface and bumer components for a period of one (1) year.

• In Canada: 3 CFM per 1,000 BTUH for natural gas or 4 CFM per 1,000 BTUH for LP/propane.
  *Heaters at 70 10 100 MBTUH and 160 MBTUH shall be mounted 5′ to 30 only.
