SS Heat puts its technical department at your disposal to advise you about the optimal size and
location for your installation.
Electrical requirements
•
SS Heat panels must be connected to an electrical circuit for each area, activated by a
differential circuit breaker and protected by magneto-thermal switches at the control panel for
the room. In the case of using multiple panels within a single area, it is recommended for them
to be installed in two lines, each of them supplying power to alternating panels with an
independent magneto-thermal switch so that, if less power is required, only half the panels can
be activated.
•
The energy source for the infrared panels is electricity. Please review this manual or the website
to get to know the specifications of each of the panels.
•
Before installation, review the electrical capacity and existing consumption. Capacity will
depend on the diameter of the electrical conductor and the internal wiring.
•
SS Heat recommends that you obtain advice from a certified electrical installer.
•
If necessary, it is recommended for you to define independent electrical circuits (this will depend
on the number of heating panels and electricity requirements).
•
It is not recommended for the circuit to be shared with other electrical equipment.
•
Disconnection means must be incorporated into the wiring according to safety regulations.
•
The mains cable must comply with standard IEC 60245 66 and have a minimum thickness of
2.5 mm. In the case of installing multiple plates connected to the same wire, its size must match
the type of installation, following the instructions of the authorised installer.
Precautions for the choice of location
•
The SSH panel must be installed more than 2.5 metres from the ground and at least 40 cm
away from the wall.
•
The SSH panel must be installed horizontally.
•
The SSH panel must be kept at a minimum distance of 100 cm from flammable products.
•
Please check cables and connection to the power supply before installation.
•
Do not install the thermostat in warm and humid places. (However, the thermostat must be
placed close to the SSH panel installation).
•
The SSH panel must be installed with individual wiring as it is not convenient for the SSH panel
and the switch to be installed in the same place.
•
Please be careful not to contaminate the surface of the SSH panel during installation. (Use
appropriate clean gloves to handle the SSH panel).
•
Please follow the instructions in the manual for installation or consult SS HEAT authorised
installers.
•
The SSH panel should not be installed under a mains socket.
•
If you need to replace the wiring, contact the manufacturer, technical support or an authorised
distributor.
