SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY
• To install the heater, as well as the gas and electrical
supplies, in accordance with applicable specifications
and codes. Roberts-Gordon recommends the
installer contact a local Building Inspector or Fire
Marshal for guidance.
2.2 Corrosive Chemicals
CAUTION
• To use the information given in a layout drawing and
in the manual together with the cited codes and
regulations to perform the installation.
Product Damage Hazard
• To install the heater in accordance with the clear-

ances to combustibles.
• To furnish all needed materials not furnished as
standard equipment.
Refer to appropriate Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDS).
• To plan location of supports.
• To provide access to burners for servicing on all
sides, for burner removal.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in product damage.
• To provide the owner with a copy of this installation,
operation and service manual.
Roberts-Gordon cannot be responsible for ensuring that
all appropriate safety measures are undertaken prior to

access equipment and never hang or suspend any-
thing from heater.
• To ensure there is adequate air circulation around the
heater and to supply air for combustion, ventilation
and distribution in accordance with local codes.
halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere in the premises.
• To safely and adequately install heater using materi-
als with a minimal working load of 33 kg.
* 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 lifespan 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.
• To ensure the heater is placed in an approved
application.
2.1 Low Level User Instructions
In all situations, clearances to combustibles must be
maintained. Signs should be posted in storage areas to
specify the maximum stacking height of items placed
below heater to maintain required clearances to
combustibles. Minimum clearances must be maintained
from vehicles parked below the heater. Caution should be
used when running the system near combustible
materials such as wood, paper, rubber, etc. Consideration
should be given to partitions, storage racks, hoists,
building construction, etc.
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.
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 combustibles.
Please contact Roberts-Gordon or 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 (e.g. thermostat or ROBERTS GORDON®
Controller).
A copy of the wall tag (P/N 91037912) is illustrated on the
back cover. This copy of the wall tag can be affixed on the
wall near the heater. Know your model number and
installed configuration. Model number and installed
configuration are found on the burner and in the
Installation, Operation and Service Manual. Write the
largest clearance dimensions with permanent ink
according to your model number and configuration in the
open spaces on the tag.

SECTION 3: CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
• Consult local Building Inspector, Fire Insurance
Carrier or other authorities for approval of proposed
installation when there is a possibility of exposure to
combustible airborne materials or vapours.
SECTION 3: CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
WARNING
• Hang heater in accordance to the minimum
• 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.
Fire Hazard
Keep all flammable objects, liquids and
vapors the minimum required clearances to
combustibles away from heater.
Some objects will catch fire or explode when
placed close to heater.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death, injury or property damage.
3.1 Required Clearances to Combustibles
Clearances are the required distances that combustible
objects must be away from the heater to prevent fire
hazards. Caution should be used when running the
system near combustibles. Combustibles are materials,
which may catch on fire and include common items such
as wood, paper, rubber, fabric, etc. Maintain clearances
to combustibles at all times for safety.
Clearances for all heater models are located on Page 6,
the clearances 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 petrol or other combustible materials including
flammable objects, liquids, dust or vapours away from
this heater or any other appliance.
• The stated clearances to combustibles represents a
surface temperature of 32°C (90° F) above room tem-
perature. Building materials with a low heat tolerance
(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 adja-
cent materials are protected from degradation.
• Maintain clearances from heat sensitive equipment
and workstations.
• Maintain clearances from vehicles parked below the
heater.
• Maintain clearances from swinging and overhead
doors, overhead cranes, vehicle lifts, partitions, stor-
age racks, hoists, building construction, etc.
• In locations used for the storage of combustible mate-
rials, signs must be posted to specify the
maximum permissible stacking height to maintain
required clearances from the heater to the combusti-
bles. Signs must be posted adjacent to the heater
thermostat. In the absence of a thermostat, signs
must be posted in a conspicuous location.

Multiburner systems are not approved for
unvented use and must be vented outdoors.
(perimeter system) or other obstruction close to the fan
outlet or wall angle mounted, install the heater so that the
fan tube is the furthest away from the wall or obstruction,
i.e. the fan will always blow into the building or away from
the obstruction.
Unitary heaters installed unvented must be
interlocked with sufficient building exhaust.
Heaters must be installed according to the
installation manual.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death or injury.
11.2 Ventilation Requirements
Detailed recommendations for air supply are given in the
relevant National Standards. There must be an adequate
supply of air for both combustion and general ventilation.
Air vents should have negligible resistance. Do not locate
air vents where they can be easily blocked or flooded, or
adjacent to any flues or extraction systems carrying
flammable vapour.
WARNING
11.2.1 Flue Installation
Where the heater(s) is flued, the space containing it must
have a permanent outside air vent with a minimum
effective area of 4.5 cm2per kW of heat input. If
mechanical ventilation is employed, the minimum proven
airflow rate shall be 2.35 m3/h per kW of heat input.
Cut/Pinch Hazard
Wear protective gear during installation,
operation and service.
Edges are sharp.
If the flue is to be horizontally vented through a wall, a
wind-proof terminal must be fitted to outdoor vent pipe to
prevent a back draught.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in injury.

appliances. The flue and air intake are run as separate
pipes to the special concentric wall or roof terminal. The
wire mesh inside the fresh air adapter on the heater must
be ventilated out of the installation room by either thermal
or mechanical evacuation. Appropriate exhaust and fresh
air openings must be provided and exhaust fans
interlocked with the operation of the heating equipment.
Further no exhaust system is necessary if the building air

Meter and service must be large enough to handle all the
burners being installed plus any other connected load.
The gas hose which feeds the system must be large
enough to supply the required gas with a maximum
pressure drop of 13 mm wc. When gas piping is not
included in the layout drawing, the local gas supplier will
usually help in planning the gas piping.
Fire Hazard
IMPORTANT - the complete installation must be tested
for gas soundness and be purged in accordance with
local and national codes.
Tighten gas line fittings to connect gas supply
according to Figure 34.
• Check the pipe and tubing ends for leaks before
placing heating equipment into
service. When checking for gas leaks, use a soap
and water solution; never use an open flame.
Flex gas line can crack when twisted.
Gas line moves during normal operation.
Use only 1000 mm long connector of 1/2" or
3/4" nominal ID.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death, injury or property damage.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Leak test all components of gas piping
before operation.
Gas can leak if piping is not installed
properly.
Do not high pressure test gas piping with
heater connected.
Failure to follow these instructions can result
in death, injury or property damage.
It is important that the gas supply pipe and electrical
connections do not support any of the heater’s weight.
Installation pipes should be fitted in accordance with
National Standards. Pipe work from the meter to the
heater(s) must be of adequate size. Pipes of smaller size
than the heater inlet gas connection should not be used.
gas hose accommodates expansion of the heating
system and allows for easy installation and service of the
burner. Before connecting the burners to the supply
system, verify that all high pressure testing of the gas
piping has been completed.
There is an expansion of the tube with each firing cycle.
This will cause the burner to move with respect to the gas

15.1 Annual Procedure
15.2.1 Electrode
Figure 36: Burner Cup Position
Carry out the following procedure annually. The preferred
time would be immediately before the winter heating
period. If very dirty conditions arise, it may be necessary
to carry out this procedure more often. If the unit takes in
air through an air duct or filter assembly, more frequent
service may be necessary.
15.1.1 Burner and Fan Removal
Isolate the heater from the gas and electrical supplies.
Remove the fan plug from the burner. Unscrew the
securing screws on the burner flange. The burner can
now be removed. Take care not to disturb the gasket on
the flanged burner tube. Unscrew the securing screw on
the fan flange spigot. The fan can now be removed.

Remove the fan and burner independently to floor level
and clean both items internally using a soft brush and
compressed air, if available. Take care not to damage the
internal parts of the burner. Check fan impeller for
cleanliness and free rotation.
The electrodes are an integral part of the burner. To
check spark gap, remove the securing screws on the
electrode and withdraw it ensuring the gasket is not
damaged. Spark gap on electrode should be
approximately 3 mm.
15.2.2 Burner Head/Injector Jet
When the cover is removed completely, the burner
assembly is exposed. Unscrew the burner cup. Remove
brass injector jet (orifice). Replace in reverse sequence.
15.2.3 Solenoid Valve/Governor
