Heater Stones; Loading The Stones - Sawotec Phoenix Bedienungsanleitung

Heater Stones

The main purpose of the stones in the heater unit is to store enough energy to
efficiently vaporize the water thrown on top of the stones to maintain correct
humidity in the sauna room. The stones must be removed at least once a year
or every 500 hours which ever occurs first. All stone crumbles must be
removed from the heater unit and replaced with new ones as described in the
heater manual. The required amount of stones is also listed in the manual
provided. See page 18 (Technical Data).
NOTE! Never use the heater without stones as it may cause fire. Use only
manufacturer recommended SaWo-stones. Using unsuitable stones may lead to
heating element damage and will void the warranty. Never use eramic stones
or other artificial stones of any type!
Loading stones into the heater
It is recommended that all stones should be rinsed to remove any stains or
dust that can cause unpleasant odor during the first few times of using the
heater. It is important that the stones are loaded carefully in a way that they
do not block air circulation through the heater. Load the stones to the heater so
that the heating elements are not visible from any angle. Make sure that the
elements don't get bended or touch each other as a result of the loading by
properly installing the heating element spacer. Larger stones that won't fit
between the heating elements must not be forced in place instead they must
be completely removed. Small crumble or stone pieces smaller than 35mm in
diameter must not be loaded into the heater because they will block the air
circulation and will cause overheating and possible heating element damage.
Use the three addtional heating element separator to make sure that heating
elements are in no contact with each other. Do not place stones inside the
heating element holder, but only around and on top of it. If heating elements
touch each others, it will significantly reduce the life span of heating
element.(fig.4)
NOTE! Heating element damage due to overheating caused by wrong kind of
stones or stones which were wrongly loaded into the heater is not covered by
the factory warranty.

Hinweis!
Note!
Vergessen Sie nicht, den Heizelement-Halter zu
befestigen. Der Halter verhindert, dass die
Heizelemente einander berühren. Bei
gegenseitiger Berührung der Heizelemente
verringert sich deren Lebensdauer signifikant.
Do not forget to attach the heating element
separator. The separator keeps away heating
elements from touching each other. This
improves the lifespan of heating elements.
