SECTION 1: HEATER SAFETY
Your Safety is Important to Us!
This symbol is used throughout the manual
to notify you of possible fire, electrical or burn
hazards. Please pay special attention when
reading and following the warnings in these
sections.
Installation, service and annual inspection of heater must
be done by a registered installer/contractor qualified in
the installation and service of gas-fired heating
equipment.
Read this manual carefully before installation, operation
or service of this equipment.
This heater is designed for heating nonresidential indoor
spaces. Do not install in residential spaces. These
instructions, the layout drawing, local codes and
ordinances, and applicable standards that apply to gas
piping, electrical wiring, venting, etc. must be thoroughly
understood before proceeding with the installation.
Protective gear is to be worn during installation, operation
and service. Thin sheet metal parts, such as the reflector
portion of the heater and the various venting
components, have sharp edges. To prevent injury, the use
of work gloves is recommended. The use of gloves will
also prevent the transfer of body oils from the hands to
the surface of the reflector.
Before installation, check that the local distribution
conditions, nature of gas and pressure, and adjustment of
the appliance are compatible.
The heater must be applied and operated under the
general concepts of reasonable use.
For additional copies of the Installation, Operation and
Service Manual, please contact Roberts-Gordon LLC.
1.1 Manpower Requirements
To p revent personal injury and damage to the heater, two
persons will be required for installation.
1.2 IP55 Protection
The burner is certified to protection class of IP55. This
means that the internal components of the burner are
protected against extreme dusty atmosphere and water
jets from all sides. Outside air supply and flue are
mandatory for this heater. The standard exhaust fans
mentioned in this manual do NOT have IP55 protection
and must be outside the wet environment. If the fan is to
be installed in the wet environment, a special IP54
protected fan must be used. Consult Roberts-Gordon
LLC for alternative exhaust fans. Optional stainless steel
burner box provides long life in the most corrosive
applications. Always ensure that the environment to be
heated is not of an explosive or flammable nature. For
more information, please consult your ROBERTS
GORDON

In order to have trouble free performance of your heater
and maintain the IP55 protection, follow all instructions in
this manual, especially the replacement of sealing
gaskets.
