Modine Commercial Workspace Heater - 350K BTU/Intermittent Pilot Ignition/LP/Single Stage w/Aluminized Steel Heat Exchanger & Burner
Features
- Made in the USA
- 83% thermal efficiency, maximizing seasonal efficiency through the use of a collector box and the power exhauster
- A power exhaust can rotate 180° allowing the unit to be vented vertically or horizontally
- A 100% shut-off if the unit does not light, to ensure that unburned gases do not build up in the unit
- An intermittent pilot-ignition system with continuous retry to keep the unit from locking and needing to be reset if the unit does not light on the first try
- All PDP/BDP units can be field-converted from natural gas to propane if desired
- A safety pressure-switch monitors the vent pipe to assure flue gases leave the building and do not back up in the space
- Designed to utilize the smallest-diameter vent pipe possible
- “Wing” screws so that the bottom pan can be dropped without a screwdriver or nut driver
- A level hanging mechanism for easy field adjustments after adding accessories that may change the unit’s center of gravity
- Draws combustion air from inside the workspace
- 6" vent connection
- Liquid Propane
- 350,000 BTU
- Intermittent Pilot Ignition
- Single stage - on/off operation
- Aluminized steel heat exchanger & burner
