WARNING
!
Read Carefully - These instructions are written to help you prevent
difficulties that might arise during installation of heaters. Studying the
instructions first may save you considerable time and money later.
Observe the following procedures and cut your installation time to a
minimum.
When T-bar Mounted: The T-bar grid work frame must be
secured to the building to provide adequate support for the pan-
els. Holes are provided in the sides of each panel for attachment
of steel support wires for additional support of the panels where
the T-bar grid work frame strength is questionable. Support wire
must be steel and at least 18 gage (0.047 in. dia. / 0.119 cm. dia).
When Surface or Recess Mounted: The surface or recess mount-
ing frame accessory kits (Models ASF . . . or ARF . . . ) must be
used. Kits must be sized to match heaters being used. Do not
drill holes, drive nails, screws, etc., into or through panels. To do
so may result in fire, electric shock, or permanent damage to
heater. Surface or recess kits must be securely fastened to build-
ing structure using a minimum of four (4) 1/4 inch (.635 cm) diam-
eter screws or bolts.
6. To prevent possible fire due to the overheating of wiring, all field
wiring coming to heating panels must be rated at least 90° C
when junction box is allowed to lie on top of heating panel or is
enclosed between heater and ceiling above. When thermal insu-
lation is used on top of heater, the junction box must be above
the insulation.
1. To prevent possible electrical shock, disconnect ALL power com-
ing to heater at main service panel before wiring or servicing.
2. All wiring must be in accordance with the National and Local
Electrical Codes and the heater must be grounded as a precau-
tion against possible electrical shock.
3. Verify the power supply voltage coming to the heater matches the
ratings printed on the heater nameplate before energizing.
4. This heater is NOT suitable for use in hazardous locations as
described by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).
DO NOT use in areas where gasoline, paint or other flammable
liquids are used or stored. DO NOT use in wet areas or areas
where corrosive agents are present, such as marine, green
house, chemical storage, swimming pool, or areas of high
humidity, unless special custom panels are used. Special custom
panels may be available for certain environments. Contact manu-
facturer for details.
7. Panels are intended for ceiling installation only. Do not install on
walls, floor, etc. Painted (bottom) surface of panel is hot. Panels
must be installed at least seven (7) feet off floor and should not
be installed where panels can be easily contacted during use.
5. To prevent a possible injury or fire from falling panels, panels
MUST be securely fastened to the building structure.
GENERAL
Marley Engineered Products Radiant Heating Panels are Although the heater contains thermal insulation, it will
designed to provide comfort by warming the surfaces operate more efficiently in well insulated rooms. Four or

room without having to bring the room air temperature up
to the same level. These panels are ideal for spot heating The heaters are intended to be controlled by a remote wall
in high heat loss areas. Panels may be installed side by mounted thermostat. The thermostat should be located in
side or individually above areas requiring additional heat. If the same room on a side wall. It should also be above

smaller than 2"x 4" (5cm x 10cm) for support. Use screws
no smaller than number 10 in each hole provided in side and
end frames.
SURFACE MOUNTING
1. The Surface Mounting Kit come in separate carton which
contain two side frames, two end frames, and eight assem-
bly screws.
Fig. 6
2. Assemble the end frames to the side frames using the
screws provided (see Fig. 4) before installing on the ceiling.
CAUTION
!
To prevent possible injury from falling panels, use at
least four screws (1/4" or 0.635 minimum diameter) to
secure each side frame. Screws must thread securely
into a sturdy structural member of the ceiling, such as a
ceiling joist. It may be necessary to frame-in an extra
support member. Do not finish from dry-wall, plater or
other finish ceiling materials.
3. Insert the heater panel through the opening (see Fig. 7) and
make wiring connections (see Fig. 3 and WIRING instruc-
tions). The heater must be properly grounded as a precau-
tion against electrical shock. Use a properly grounded junc-
tion box for connecting the heater to the power supply.
CAUTION
Be sure electricity is turned off at main switch before
wiring to prevent possible injury from electric shock.

frames as shown in Fig. 5.
CAUTION
Be sure electricity is turned off at main switch before
wiring to prevent possible injury from electric shock.
5. Connect the heater panel leads to the power supply leads
(see Fig. 3 and WIRING instructions). The heater must be
properly grounded as a precaution against electrical shock.
Use a properly grounded junction box for connecting the
heater to the power supply. The heater may be moved along
side frames to facilitate wiring.
4. Loosely screw side and end frames to ceiling opening, then
attach corners in place (see Fig. 8).
