Ingress of foreign particles and liquids into the unit is forbidden. 4
3. GENERAL INFORMATION ErP 2015 PROTON EL It is an air heater with electrical heating. Usage of PROTON EL is extremely effective in the conditions of no-access to the hot water supply. These models are equipped with the ribbed T(ubular) E(lectric) H(eater)s made of high-alloy stainless steel which ensure high intensity of heat exchange and long-lasting trouble-free work of equipment. Model range PROTON EL 15 heating power 7.5/15 kw PROTON EL 30 heating power 11/19/30 kw Principle of operation The air heaters with IP54 protection are available, which are designed to heat moisture environments (car washes, swimming pools). Applications Warehouses and hangars Production facilities Logistics centers Wholesale and retail premises Parking places Car service centers Sports facilities Airports Car washes Winter gardens and green houses Buildings of worship The unit PROTON EL with electric heating is an element of a heating system. It is designed for heating air and its even distribution in buildings. Its work is based on axial fan functioning, which charges the air and pass it through finned tubular electric heaters. Heated air is supplied into a room and is directed to the working area by directing louvers. 5

5. CONSTRUCTION Major components of the air heater PROTON EL Casing The casing consists of metal components dyed by powder paint, galvanized fasteners and structural components. Fan The fan is fixed in a special diffuser on the back of the unit, thanks to which air flow is evenly distributed on the finned tubular electric heaters surface. This provides its most effective application. This solution decreases noise level created by the flowing air. The fan is equipped with a special small grill which protects the heater from falling in of debris, leaves etc. as well as prevents possible personnel injures or death caused by rotating fan s blades. Rated power supply of PROTON EL fans is 230 V/50 Hz. Motor protection grade is IP54. Operating temperature range is from -40 C to +50 C. Finned tubular electric heaters Heating elements are made of high-alloy stainless steel. For better heat extraction, toroid-like coils with width of 10 mm with additional corrugation are added to the heating elements. The frame for mounting elements is made of galvanized steel. Joint boxes are equipped with clamping cables with IP54 protection. Thermal sensors of overheat protection of the finned tubular electric heaters are fastened on their top and bottom sides. Directing louvers They are made of steel and dyed by special paint, and provide minimal air resistance at the outlet from the air heater. Aesthetic look and high protection from corrosion guarantee durability and safety. 7
