3. Whether vertically or horizontally, the heater should be rigidly
mounted so that vibration is at a minimum since excessive
vibration will result in erratic thermostat operation. The
NWHO-6 is provided with mounting lugs to support the heat-
ing chamber. (See photo.)
4. By using a slotted mounting assembly on either of the lugs,
the heater chamber will be permitted to expand with increas-
ing temperature.
5. DANGER: Hazard of Fire. Provide minimum of 6” spacing
from chamber and related piping to nearest combustible material.
Avoid operation of heater near combustible fluids or in com-
bustible vapor or gas laden atmosphere. NOTE: Contact factory
for heaters suitable for use in hazardous locations.
6. Provide adequate space at terminal end to permit withdrawal
of the heater from chamber should servicing be required.
