ASSEMBLY OF TUBE SECTIONS
Sheet metal parts, particularly reflectors and vent have sharp
edges. Always use gloves when handling.
Failure to do so may result in death, serious injury or property
damage.
CUT HAZARD
During field assembly of the heater tube sections, the recommended procedure is as follows:
1. Before hanging heater sections, first determine the actual layout of the system (see Sections 7.0) & 8.0) for
details). Consideration must also be taken for flue pipe, fresh air ducting, gas piping, clearances to
combustibles, etc. before hanging heater. Typical suspension methods are shown in Section 9.0).
2. Hang each tube section individually. DO NOT
DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT attach the heater tube sections together on the ground and
attempt to hang the entire system.
3. The first 10’ tube section must be either aluminized steel (40-200 MBtu/hr models with 12-radial hole
flange) or Alumi-Therm (225-250 MBtu/hr models with 6-hole flanges) as the primary heat exchanger and
the control box connected directly to these tube sections. Failure to attach the control box to the flange end

4. Place a tube support/hanger bracket on the end of the heat exchanger tube having the mounting flange.
Align the tube such that the welded seam is facing down toward the ground. Failure to assemble the tube Failure to assemble the tube Failure to assemble the tube Failure to assemble the tube

5. Space the tube support/hanger bracket 6 inches from center of its slotted holes to the front face of the
mounting flange. Secure the tube to the support/hanger bracket using a “U” Bolt clamp and two (2) 5/16-18
nuts provided. For U-tube configuration, see typical assembly overview illustration in Section Error!

6. Suspend the chain to attach the wire hanger and the tube support bracket. Insert the tube into the wire
hanger and then raise the tube support bracket end up to the suspension chain, use “S” hooks to attach the
wire hanger and tube support bracket to the chain.
