SL11B & S1500 Manual 934-6644 - Page 12
DESIGN RELATED ADDITIONAL
SAFETY FEATURES
1 LOCKING POSITION FOR LPG ON GAS SELECTOR LEVER
Units used with LPG while the gas selector valve is positioned for
Natural Gas will throw significantly more heat than the rated Btu/h. This
is definitely a safety hazard.
2 LOW SKIN TEMPERATURE
Sure Flame Heaters are designed to have a low skin temperature. This
provides added safety in the workplace.
3 DURABLE CONSTRUCTION
The Models SL11B & S1500 use a stainless steel burner for long life and
consistent performance.
In order to maintain the highly efficient combustion of the Sure Flame
Heater, the combustion chamber must remain as manufactured. Any
change or distortion could alter the fuel/air mixture and create unwanted
gases.
ON-SITE SAFETY PROBLEMS
1 SHORTING OUT OF DEFECTIVE COMPONENTS
This is a common problem which saves short term expense at the risk
of a large future cost. Any heaters found in this condition should be
removed immediately.
2 IMPROPER ENCLOSURES
When heaters are installed partially to the outside for fresh air intake,
strict adherence must be made to the minimum clearance to combustibles
given on the instruction plate. Wood framing around a heater is a request
for trouble.
3 SUPPLYING LIQUID PROPANE TO HEATER
This problem has occurred from time to time. To minimize the damage,
and possible personal injury, shut off the gas supply and let the heater
run until all of the liquid in the lines has been vaporized.
