The system comprises casings in black powdered coated steel, copper tube element with aluminium fins and rigid or roll satin anodized aluminium grilles. The standard finned element lengths are manufactured with 22mm O.D. copper tube and aluminium fins having a nominal spacing of 6mm. Some elements are also available with 15mm copper tube Casings and elements are sized to accommodate single or double runs of finned element lengths where appropriate, in progressive ascending output combinations. Return pipework options are available. 2

The P suffix denotes whether a casing is fitted with provision to accommodate return pipework, and the "S" suffix denotes whether a casing is a bespoke style. Example A Model HTA-2 comprises a 270mm wide, 100mm high case, with two runs of W element, size (70mm high x 75mm wide). Example B HTA-7P comprises a 340mm wide, 200mm high case, with provision for return pipework and a double run of element, consisting of one run of Y element size (100mm high x 70mm wide) and one run of Z element (size 100mm high x 100mm wide). Elements Standard element types X, W, Y and Z are manufactured in 22mm O.D. copper tube. The number of elements, orientation (by fin height) is defined by the number of letters before the fin size. e.g. W = single run of W element set at 70mm high YY = double run of Y element set at 100mm 3

9 SELECTION & APPLICATION General Dunham-Bush Hydrocourse trench heating is designed to cover a broad range of casing sizes, grille styles and outputs. Heat is emitted by natural convection and provides evenly distributed warmth, ideal for preventing down draughts on cold surfaces such as outside walls and glazing. Standard casings are supplied in fixed lengths of 500mm, 1000mm, 1500mm. Telescopic casings with an adjustment range mm length are supplied for made-to-fit installations Similarly, trim casings with a range mm can also be supplied for cutting on-site. Standard, telescopic and/or trim casings are fixed together on site to form a continuous heating run. End caps are available for finishing the ends of Hydrocourse trench cases. Where specified Hydrocourse trench heating can accommodate flow & return pipework. When using L.P.H.W or M.T.H.W as the heating medium in long lengths, consideration must be given to the change in output along the length due to the reduction in water temperature from flow water temperature to return water temperature. On long runs consideration must be given to accommodate the expansion of the element/pipework. Dunham-Bush can supply expansion bellows and guides upon request. Step 1. Select a model to suit to the desired dimensions that the floor void/trench will accommodate. Base the selection of the model firstly by the model s casings height. Trench heating is supplied with an additional height adjustment of up to 50mm (with factory-fitted M6x70 levelling screws) Adjustable casing supports can also be supplied for floor voids greater than 150mm in depth, up to the depth of 450mm. Special, bespoke casings can be considered contact your Dunham-Bush represetative. Step 2. Once the desired model is selected, calculate the nominal output per length, using the correction factors. Step 3. Decide the location of the trench heaters and consider floor grilles. If heaters are to be installed in areas of high foot traffic, rigid grilles are more suitable than roll grilles. The standard grille offered for all applications is the Y-Bar roll grille. Step 4. Consider finishes as well as control accessories; contact Dunham-Bush for further guidance. 9

11 SELECTION & APPLICATION Provision for expansion, general considerations. When the elements and tubing are connected to form a continuous run, provision must be made for the resulting expansion when the heating medium is applied to the system. It may be possible, in some circumstances, to arrange for a small amount of expansion to be taken up within the casing by allowing the pipework to float. But it is usually necessary to provide expansion bellows & guides to compensate for the expansion. As a basic rule the maximum float should not exceed 6mm. Because of the limited space available within the trench casings it is not always possible to fit proprietary expansion bellows, and for this reason Dunham-Bush offer purpose made expansion joints and suitable pipe guides. Quantity of Expansion Joints and Guides To decide on the quantity and suitability of Dunham-Bush expansion joints & guides for a particular application. The total amount of movement or expansion of the elements and tubing in the run being considered. This will depend upon the difference between the minimum installed and maximum operating temperature and the coefficient of the linear expansion of the tubing material. Each expansion joint & guide kit is capable of accepting up to 6mm maximum of expansion, i.e. 3mm from each end. 11

27 CONSTRUCTION Handling The purchaser is responsible for off loading. Heaters are grouped together and loaded upon a pallet up to 2.0m x 1.2m. When a significant quantity of heaters is delivered, they may be palletised and shrink wrapped, so a fork lift truck or some form of lifting equipment is strongly desirable. Care should be taken to ensure the heaters are not dropped or knocked under any circumstances. Storage Heaters should be stored under clean, dry conditions. The shrink wrap should not be removed until heaters are required for installation, unless damage in transit is suspected. Note the purchaser must examine the heaters promptly upon receipt and any claims for damage will only be accepted if, at the time of delivery, the consignment note is endorsed with a note detailing the damage and counter signed by the transport driver. Installation details Hydrocourse heaters are supplied with a copy of the Installation, Operation & Maintenance Instructions, which provide full details for installing, connecting and commissioning the unit. Additional copies are available upon request, or can downloaded from Preparation A suitable trench void should be prepared ready to accept the trench heating system. The trench void should be straight, uniform and level and free from obstructions that encroach on the casing, grille trim or grilles. If the trench system is to be cast into the floor, the installer must take adequate precautions to protect the dimensional stability of the casing assembly. Suitably sized plywood shuttering must be fitted to the grille recess prior to casting taking place. PRICES & CONDITION OF SALE Prices Dunham-Bush Ltd do not issue price lists but will be pleased to supply a written quotation upon request. Condition of sale The standard conditions of sale appear on all quotation and order acknowledgement forms. Additional copies are available upon request. Availability Hydrocourse trench heaters are supplied direct from our manufacturing plant. The availability varies with demand and should therefore be checked at the time of ordering.
