BEACON/MORRIS BMEF HIGH EFFICIENCY GAS FIRED

PROPELLER UNIT HEATER

DESCRIPTION
The Beacon/Morris High Efficiency Unit Heaters achieve 80%
thermal efficiency and annual fuel savings of 20 to 25% over
conventional gravity vented heaters.
Heated air no longer escapes through the draft diverter opening
during the off-cycle. Energy saving spark ignition reduces gas
losses. The pilot only operates when required.
Horizontal power venting allows side wall venting, smaller openings
and single walled vent pipe, reducing heat loss. Higher efficiencies
can reduce equipment and material cost as well as installation time.

Ratings shown are for unit installations
at elevations between 0 and 2000 ft.
(610m) above sea level. For unit installations in USA above 2000 ft. (610m), the
unit input must be derated 4% for each
1000 ft. (305m) above sea level; refer
to local codes, or in absence of local
codes, refer to the latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Standard
Z223.1 (N.F.P.A. No. 54).
For installations in Canada, any
references to deration at altitudes in
excess of 2000 ft. (610m) are to be
ignored. At altitudes of 2000 to 4500 ft.
(610 to 1372m), the unit must be derated
to 90% of the normal altitude rating, and
be so marked in accordance with the
ETL certification.
