trical supplies, in accordance with applicable
specifications and codes. Roberts-Gordon LLC
recommends the installer contact a Local Building
inspector or Fire Marshal for guidance.
• Washbays/car washes: The heater must not be
exposed to the direct spray from a pressure
washer. To reduce the possibility of spray enter-
ing the burner, utilize an outside combustion air
• To use the information given in a layout drawing
and in the manual together with the cited codes
and regulations to perform the installation.
The heater has been extensively tested under
extreme conditions and is highly resistant to the out-
door elements. Care must be taken to design the
• To install the heater in accordance with the
clearances to combustibles.
• To furnish all needed materials not furnished as
standard equipment.
• Plan location of supports. Locate a support near
all elbows.
2.1 Wall Tag
A laminated wall tag is available for the heater as a
permanent reminder of the safety instructions and
the importance of the required clearances to com-
bustibles. Please contact Roberts-Gordon LLC or
• To provide access to burners for servicing on all
sides and for burner removal.
• To provide the owner with a copy of this installa-
tion, operation and service manual.
®
your ROBERTS GORDON independent distributor
to obtain the wall tag. Affix the tag by peeling off the
backing of the adhesive strips on the rear surface
and position the tag on a wall near the heater’s con-
trols (e.g. thermostat or ROBERTS GORDON Con-
troller).
• To never use heater as support for a ladder or
other access equipment and never hang or sus-
pend anything from heater.
®
• To ensure there is adequate air circulation around
the heater and to supply air for combustion, venti-
lation and distribution in accordance with local
codes.
A copy of the wall tag (P/N 91037912) is illustrated on
the back cover. For an immediate solution, you may
affix this copy on the wall near the heater.
• To safely and adequately install heater using
materials with a minimal working load of 75 lbs
(33 kg).
Know your model number and installed configuration.
Model number and installed configuration are found
on the burner and in the Installation, Operation and
in permanent ink according to your model number
and configuration in the open spaces on the tag.
• To ensure the heater is placed in an approved
application.
• Be sure the heater has a downward pitch of 1/2"
per 20' (1 cm per 6 m) away from the burner.
• A minimum of 10' (3 m) of tubing on HE-60/80 and
a minimum of 15' (4.6 m) of tubing on HE-100/
125/150/175 are required between the burner and
the first elbow.
• Indoor hanging: Provide a suspension with verti-
cal length of chain or swinging rod which has at
least 2" (5 cm) of horizontal travel for each burner
in a straight run. Be sure the suspension system
is sufficiently flexible to accomodate thermal
expansion, which occurs as the system heats up,

SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY
2.2 Corrosive Chemicals
CAUTION
Product Damage Hazard
Do not use heater in area containing
corrosive chemicals.
Refer to appropriate Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDS).
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in product damage.
Roberts-Gordon LLC cannot be responsible for
ensuring that all appropriate safety measures are
undertaken prior to installation; this is entirely the
responsibility of the installer. It is essential that the
contractor, the sub-contractor, or the owner identifies
the presence of combustible materials, corrosive
chemicals or halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere
in the premises.
* Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical
compounds characterized by the presence of halogen
elements (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These com-
pounds are frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning
agents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the air
supply of the burner, the life span of the heater compo-
nents will be greatly reduced. An outside air supply must
be provided to the burners whenever the presence of
these compounds is suspected. Warranty will be invalid if
the heater is exposed to halogenated hydrocarbons.
2.3 National Standards and Applicable Codes
All appliances must be installed in accordance with
the latest revision of the applicable standards and
national codes. This refers also to the electric, gas
and venting installation. Note: Additional standards
for installations in Public Garages, Aircraft Hangars,
etc. may be applicable.

HE-SERIES INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL
SECTION 3: CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
3.1 Required Clearances to Combustibles
• Maintain clearances from swinging and overhead
doors, overhead cranes, vehicle lifts, partitions,
storage racks, hoists, building construction, etc.
WARNING
• In locations used for the storage of combustible
materials, signs must be posted to specify the
maximum permissible stacking height to maintain
required clearances from the heater to the com-
bustibles. Signs must be posted adjacent to the
heater thermostat. In the absence of a thermo-
stat, signs must be posted in a conspicuous
location.
Fire Hazard
Keep all flammable objects, liquids and
vapors the minimum required clearances to
combustibles away from heater.
• Consult local Fire Marshal, Fire Insurance Carrier
or other authorities for approval of proposed
installation when there is a possibility of exposure
to combustible airborne materials or vapors.
Some objects will catch fire or explode when
placed close to heater.
• Hang heater in accordance to the minimum sus-
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death, injury or property damage.
• If the radiant tubes must pass through the building
structure, be sure that adequate sleeving and fire
stop is installed to prevent scorching and/or fire
hazard.
Clearances are the required distances that combusti-
ble objects must be away from the heater to prevent
serious fire hazards. Combustibles are materials that
may catch on fire and include common items such as
wood, paper, rubber, fabric, etc. Maintain clear-
ances to combustibles at all times for safety.
Clearances for all heater models are located on the
ances on each burner for the model heater being
installed to make sure the product is suitable for your
application and the clearances are maintained. Read
and follow the safety guidelines below:
• Keep gasoline or other combustible materials
including flammable objects, liquids, dust or
vapors away from this heater or any other appli-
ance.
• The stated clearances to combustibles represents
a surface temperature of 90° F (50°C) above room
temperature. Building materials with a low heat tol-
erance (such as plastics, vinyl siding, canvas, tri-
ply, etc) may be subject to degradation at lower
temperatures. It is the installer’s responsibility to
assure that adjacent materials are protected from
degradation.
• Maintain clearances from heat sensitive
equipment and workstations.
• Maintain clearances from vehicles parked below
the heater.

8.1 General Venting Requirements
This heater must be vented in accordance with the
rules contained in this manual and with the following
national codes and any state, provincial or local
codes which may apply:
The bottom of the vent or air intake terminal shall not
be located less than 1' (.3 m) above grade level.
The vent shall not terminate less than 7' (2.1 m)
above grade where located adjacent to public
walkways.
United States: Refer to National Fuel Gas Code
NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest revision.
Vent terminal must be installed at a height sufficient
to prevent blockage by snow, and building materials
protected from degradation by flue gases.
Canada: Refer to Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code CSA B149.1 - latest revision.
Exhaust end of heater will accept a 4'' (10 cm) vent
pipe using the vent adapter (P/N 90502700). To
prevent leakage of condensation, install the vent
adapter with the seam on top and seal the joint using
a high temperature silicone sealant.
Secure all joints with #8 x 3/8 sheet metal screws.
Seal all joints with high temperature silicone sealant.

HE-SERIES INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL
8.1.1 United States Requirements
FIGURE 22: Tube Termination
Vent must terminate at least 3' (.9 m) above any
forced air inlet located within 10' (3.1 m).
Vent must terminate at least 4' (1.2 m) below, 4'
(1.2 m) horizontally from, or 1' (.3 m) above any door,
operable window, or gravity air inlet into any building.
8.1.2 Canadian Requirements
The vent shall not terminate within 6' (1.8 m) of a
mechanical air supply inlet to any building.
8.6 Length Requirements
The maximum vent length allowed is 45' (13.7 m).
The maximum outside air supply duct length allowed
is 45' (13.7 m).
The vent shall not terminate within 3' (.9 m) of a
window or door that can be opened in any building,
any non-mechanical air supply inlet to any building,
or of the combustion air inlet of any other appliance.
The total vent length, plus outside air duct length,
plus any extensions to minimum heat exchanger
lengths, cannot exceed 65' (19.8 m).
8.2 Unvented Operation
Sufficient ventilation must be provided in the amount
of 4 cfm per 1000 Btu/h firing rate (United States); 3
cfm per 1000 Btu/h firing rate (Canada).
Vent length should be limited to less than 20' (6 m). If
using vent lengths greater than 20' (6 m),
condensation will form in the vent pipe. Insulation
and additional sealing measures (high temperature
silicone at all seams) are required. Optional heat
exchanger beyond minimum lengths is considered as
vent length for length determination.
Use of optional outside combustion air is not
recommended with unvented heaters.
If exhaust fans are used to supply ventilation air, an
interlock switch must be used to prevent the heater
from coming on when the fans are off. This may be
done using a pressure switch.
Subtract 15' (4.6 m) of maximum allowed vent or duct
length per vent elbow if more than two are used.
8.3 Horizontal Venting
In noncombustible walls only, vent terminal
(P/N 02537801-1P) may be used.
For 4'' (10 cm) vents in either combustible or
noncombustible walls, use Tjernlund VH1-4 (P/N
90502100) or equivalent, insulated vent terminal.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper
installation.
For 6'' (15 cm) common vents in either combustible
or noncombustible walls, use Tjernlund VH1-6 (P/N
90502101) or equivalent, insulated vent terminal.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper
installation.
8.4 Vertical Venting
For 4'' (10 cm), an approved vent cap
(P/N 90502300) must be used.
For 6'' (15 cm) common vent, an approved vent cap
(P/N 90502302) must be used.
For common vertical venting of more than two
A vent shall not extend less than 2' (.6m) above the
highest point where it passes through a flat roof of a
building.
8.5 Unvented Operation Tube Termination
Turndown type vent terminal with a screen must be
installed at the exhaust end of the tube. Vent terminal
design shall not incorporate backdraft flap.

SECTION 9: GAS PIPING
SECTION 9: GAS PIPING
There is an expansion of the tube with each firing
cycle, this will cause the burner to move with respect
to the gas line. This can cause a gas leak resulting in
an unsafe condition if the gas connection is not made
WARNING
Meter and service must be large enough to handle all
the burners being installed plus any other connected
load. The gas line which feeds the system must be
large enough to supply the required gas with a maxi-
mum pressure drop of 1/2" wc. When gas piping is

supply according to Figure 23.
Gas lines must meet applicable codes:
United States: The Flexible Stainless Steel Gas
Hose (US models) supplied with the heater is certi-
fied per the Standard for Connectors for Gas Appli-
ances, ANSI Z21.24/CSA 6.10 - latest revision.
Canada: The Rubber Type 1 Gas Hose (Canadian
models) optional with the heater is certified as being
in compliance with the Standard for Elastomeric
Composite Hose and Hose Couplings for Conducting
Propane and Natural Gas, CAN/CGA 8.1 - Latest
revision.
