Detailed Specifications
General:
Provide
steel panel radiator elements of lengths and in locations as
indicated, and of capacities, style and having accessories
as scheduled. The wall hung heating panel radiation shall be
of one-piece all-welded steel construction, consisting of
flattened water tubes welded to headers at each end. The
radiator shall include an integral heavy gauge (0.09
minimum) all-welded perforated top grille (for curved
radiators the grille is omitted). RF models to have steel
corrugated fins welded to the rear side of the water tubes
to increase the convective output of the unit. There shall
be no less than 32 fins per foot. Fins shall start within 1
of the headers, and shall be spot-welded three times per
tube.
The radiators headers shall include all necessary inlet,
outlet and vent connections as required. Standard connection
sizes are ½ NPT tapered thread for supply and return
piping, and 1/8 for the vent connection. Internal baffling
is provided where required for proper water flow. Optional
Ύ connections shall be available at an additional cost.
The radiant heating panels shall be available in lengths
from 2-0 to 29-6 in two inch even increments without the
need for splicing. The panel radiation shall be capable of
being mounted to typical stud wall construction without
additional blocking or strapping. Appropriate wall mounting
brackets or optional floor post mounting shall be provided
with the radiation. Panel radiation expansion shall not
exceed 1/64 per foot of radiation at 215ΊF. The installer
shall provide adequate expansion compensation for each
radiator.
The panel radiation shall be manufactured in the USA.
Pressure Ratings:
Pressure
ratings for the radiation shall be as follows:
STANDARD: Working pressure-56 PSI maximum, Test Pressure-74
PSI maximum
OR
MEDIUM: Working pressure-85 PSI maximum, Test Pressure-110 PSI
maximum
OR
HIGH: Working pressure-128 PSI maximum, Test Pressure 184 PSI
maximum
Finishes:
The panel radiation shall be
cleaned and phosphatized in preparation for the powder
coat finish. The radiation is then finish painted with a
gloss powder coat finish, for a
total paint thickness of 2-3 mils (0.002 - 0.003). The
