Welcome to the new AB-2 Reznor gas ﬁred air

curtain models. Local regulations may vary in the

country of use and it is the installers responsibility

to ensure that such regulations are satisﬁed.

All installation, assembly, commissioning and

service procedures must be carried out by suitably

qualiﬁed competent persons to the statutory

regulations in the country of use.

These instructions refer to products for use in GB

and the IE.

These air curtains are suitable for indoor use

only, and designed to operate at an ambient

temperature between –15°C and 30°C.

When installing, commissioning and servicing is

undertaken on the gas ﬁred air curtains speciﬁed

in these instructions, due care and attention

is required to ensure that working at height

regulations are adhered to at the mounting

heights speciﬁed.

All dimensions shown are in mm unless otherwise

stated.

The manufacturer reserves the right to alter

speciﬁcations without prior notice.

PLEASE READ this document prior

to installation to familiarise yourself

with the components and tools you

require at the various stages.

The primary reason for installing gas ﬁred air

curtains is to prevent the inﬂux of cold outside air

through a door opening into a heated area.

Typical applications include large despatch bay

doors in factories and warehouses, and internal

doors between areas of different temperatures.

Wider door openings can be accommodated by

bolting two or more units together.

Air curtains control the internal climate by

emitting an air stream with enough velocity to

meet the ﬂoor so creating an air barrier in the

door area. To prevent the ingress of outside

draughts, the discharge louvre is angled outwards,

so that the air leaving the building meets the wind

trying to enter, thus deﬂecting it. (See diagrams

below).

Reznor gas ﬁred air curtains provide uniform air

distribution across the full width of the door,

keeping heated or conditioned air inside the

building and stopping the ingress of cold air,

draughts, and dust.

This manual provides detailed information on

the installation of Reznor gas ﬁred air curtains.

It is essential that these products are installed in

accordance with these manufacturers instructions.

Installation Details

Health and safety

Reznor air curtains must be installed in accordance

with the relevant provisions of the Gas Safety

(Installations and Use) Regulations 1998. Due

account should also be taken of any obligations

arising from the Health and Safety at Work Act

1974 or relevant codes of practice. In addition

the installation must be carried out in accordance

with the current IEE wiring regulations (BS 7671),

BS 6896 (Industrial & Commercial) and any other

relevant British Standards and Codes of Practice

by a qualiﬁed installer. Isolate all electrical supplies

to the heater & control panel before proceeding.

For your own safety we recommend the use of

personal protective equipment when handling this

air curtain.

Check the supporting structure to verify that it

has sufﬁcient load-carrying capacity to support

the unit weight. Suspend the heater only from

the threaded nut retainers or with a manufacturer

provided kit.

DO NOT suspend from the heater cabinet panels.

Do not place or add additional weight to the

suspended heater.

Mounting

Reznor gas ﬁred air curtains are supplied with

mounting brackets pre-ﬁtted, either as single

units, or in multiples, which can be bolted

together to suit various door widths.

The minimum mounting height is 1.8 metres

Suspension by means of threaded rods

De gas-ﬁred air curtains can standard be

suspended using threaded rods M10 and lock

nuts.

Ensure that the structural elements which will be

used to suspend the appliance are adequate to

carry the weight of the appliance.

Leave the unit on the pallet. If the bottom of the

unit is not supported or protected damage can

occur.

The heater is supplied with 8 suspension points.

All points must be used.

Ensure that threaded rods are lock nut secured to

ensure against loosening.

Use a lock nut being carefully tightened in order

not to damage the screw thread.

Gap to be kept to a minimum

Bottom of air curtain

to be level with top of

door opening (1.8m

minimum)

Each unit is ﬁtted with 8 suspensionpoints - all

points must be used! Add a nut to lock the

hanger rod to the heater

Installation Details (Cont)...

It may be necessary to adjust the position of the

air outlet louvres to provide the correct airﬂow

across the door opening. This can be done by ﬁrst

loosening the locking pins (ﬁgure 5), The louvres

can now be moved to the desired position and

the locking pins re-tightened.

Note: The AB 225-2 model has two pairs of

lock nuts, whereas the AB 175-2 model only

has one pair.

Suspension by means of ﬁxing

brackets (option).

The use of ﬁxing brackets to suspend the air

curtain is optional (to be speciﬁed on order form).

See ﬁgure 6.

By using suitable steelwork the air curtains can be

ﬁxed to the building structure.

Multiple air curtains

Multiple air curtains must be ﬁxed to the building

structure by means of threaded rods as described

in section ‘Suspension by means of threaded

rods’.

The use of ﬁxing brackets to install the air curtains

if optional (see section ‘Suspension by means of

threaded brackets (option)’.

Make sure that the multiple air curtains are level

and in the same plane in order to avoid bending

of the system.

Then, the air curtains must be ﬁxed together by

means of four M6 bolts, nuts and washers in the

hereto provided holes in the side of the unit.

Flueing

The gas ﬁred air curtain must be installed with

a ﬁxed ﬂue. The fan is ﬁtted with a 130mm

diameter female outlet. (Flue and ﬁttings can be

supplied by the manufacturer).

The ﬂue pipe should be adequately supported at

regular intervals from the building structure and

terminated externally with a British Gas tested

and certiﬁed GC1 terminal.

The maximum ﬂue length is 7m and the

maximum number of bends is two on individually

ﬂued appliances. The ﬂue may be installed

vertically or horizontally, noting that horizontal

ﬂues MUST be terminated vertically. (See ﬁgures

8 & 9).

Ventilation requirements

In buildings having an air change rate of less than

0.5 per hour, additional mechanical or natural

ventilation is required. For detailed information

please see BS6230 section 5.2.2.2.1.1.

Mechanical ventilation

Should be installed to meet a minimum of 0.5 air

changes per hour using appropriately sized fans

interlocked with the heaters.

Natural ventilation

Low level ventilation openings with a free area of

at least 2cm2/kW shall be provided. See section

5.2.2.2.1.2.

Before ﬁtting a horizontal ﬂue, it will be necessary

to rotate the I/D fan through 90º on it`s mounting

bracket to enable the ﬂue to be routed to the rear

of the air curtain as shown in ﬁgure 9.

Removal and reﬁtting of the I/D fan is described on

page 19 of this manual, parts replacement.

Note 1: The maximum permissible horizontal ﬂue

length should be calculated using the formula for

equivalent ﬂue sizes shown on the previous page.

Note 2: When the horizontal ﬂue is to pass

through a wall constructed of combustible

material, a suitable approved ﬁreproof sleeve

should be ﬁtted prior to installing the ﬂue pipe.
