Thermo Top C / Thermo Top E Exhaust line
45
10 Exhaust line
The exhaust line (inside diameter 22 mm) can be routed with several
bends (270° altogether, minimum bending radius 50 mm).
The total length of the exhaust line must be not less than 500 mm.
The maximum length equals 1000 mm.
The exhaust muffler should preferably be installed near the heater,
but at least 200 mm away from the latter.
The exhaust muffler must not be installed near the intake opening for the
combustion air.
The exhaust muffler and exhaust line must not be secured to heat-
sensitive parts of the vehicle and must be kept at an adequate minimum
distance of 20 mm from the latter.
The opening of the exhaust pipe must be freely accessible
and must not
be directed towards any part of the vehicle. The exhaust pipe opening
must remain at a sufficient distance (
≥ 0.2 m) from the ground.
The Thermo Top C / Thermo Top E heater must not be operated without
the muffler.
The opening of the exhaust pipe must not point in the direction of travel
(see Fig. 14).
Rigid pipes of unalloyed steel with a minimum wall thickness of 1.0 mm
or flexible piping of alloyed steel only must be used as exhaust line.
NOTE:
Accumulated condensation in the exhaust line must be discharged
immediately. A condensate drain hole may be drilled if necessary.
